Sam Jones is holding a gigantic meeting in Annis ton, Ala., and in an interview with a reporter ofihe Atlanta News, he states that he will take a hand in politics next year. He is for white primaries and in about the same breath he says “I go more on character than I do on color.” lie seems to be terribly in earnest and his advent into ti e political arena will be watched with interest by many and an avoidance of his fiery shafts will be entirely in order by others. Anniston, Ala., April 15. Rev. Sam P. Jones, the noted evangelist, arrived in this city Saturday night from Atlanta, and was seen soon after arrival by the correspondent of The Daily News. He talks hope fully of the evangelistic movement which began in Anniston Sunday. The city is ready for him. The first service of the revival was held in the auditorium at 3 o’clock yes terday, the second last.nig’nt. Mr. Jones was accompanied here by Mr.L. R. Gilreath, of Cartersville, who has charge of the singing, and Mrs. Annie Graham, of Carters ville, who presides at the piano. Three services will be held each day for ten days. Mr. Jones was asked for his views on the anti-barroom crusade in Georgia. He replied by saying that it was much larger, stronger and healthier than the newspapers, politicians and the demagogues of Georgia had any idea of. Continuing, he said: “The good people of Georgia have been slow to learn that the courthouse rings and political cliques could not be trusted. The candidates they nom inated could be bought or borrow ed to defeat any legislation that looks to the closing up of the sa loons or an abridgement in any way of the liquor traffic. —“The present anti-saloon crusade will bring on a war between the dirty politicians and the decent element of the state upon the other side. The last Georgia legislature out- Heroded Herod himself, and the good people of Georgia do not want the state disgraeed by an other like it. —“The demagogues and politicians may howl and whine on the fearful catastrophe of mixing church and state, but some of us think that we had bet ter mix a little church with things and save the state from another disgrace like the legislature’s trip to Valdosta. We want sober men, decent men and non-c.ussing men in office, and we are going to have ’em, or know the reason why. “All we ask is that timid preach* ers and politics bedabbled deacons run their train, with its dirty car go, on the side track and give us the right of way. “We propose to meet the boys in the primaries and at the ballot box. The elections next year in Georgia will be a battle royal be tween the good people and the “gang.” and in the white prima ries we’ll clean ’em up. “If the negro had been eliminat ed from politics in Georgia as long as he has been out in South Caro lina, the decent element would have been in charge of the state long ago. I would about as" soon be a nigger as to be a whitp man and depend on a nigger for my po litical backer and my only ihance for office. Igo more on charac ter THAN I DO ON COLOR. “There are 137 counties in Geor gia. The decent element of the state can count on me for 137 speeches during the camdaign, Providence permitting, and there is a whole lot of fellows who will g° to speaking and spend money along legitimate lines for the over throw the liquor traffic in Georgia. “I would not trust the average candidate of the court house ring as far as I can throw a cow pen by the gate. “The preachers of Georgia rea lize, every one of them who have enough sense to go to milL, or ieligion enough to say grace at a table, that they have got to re move obstacles o_t of the way, or give up all idea of progress, and so soon as the politicians see that the good people mean business every dirty little devil of them will either join our procession or take to the woods. They will take to temperance with the same avidity that they took to free silver a few years ago, and for the same reas on th v saw people were over on that side. “Of course we have got some decent office-holders in Georgia who are an honor to the state, and they know' they have been hope- DR. W. H. PATTERSON. History of His Life By His Home Paper. Eufaula (Ala) Times. After suffering two weeks with pneumonia. Rev W. H. Patterson died last night, eleven o’clock, at his home on the hill, surrounded by his loved ones who have watch ed so anxiously and ministered so lovingly to his wants. All that medical skill could devise was done to relieve his suffering and restore him, but his labors had been so worthy the Master’s hire and he had so “kept faith” that the crown was ready and waiting, and the messenger from the man sions above came and whispered “Well done, enter thou.” Abun dant and rich is the reward he re ceives “up there.” Dr Patterson was born in Dooley County, Georgia, Oct. 9th 1836, but was reared in Hancock county, and was a resident of Eufaula more than thirty-five years. Was president of Union Female college many years, and many women in this city today are saddened that the kind gentle counsellor, teacher and friend of their girlhood days is no more, the writwr .one of this number. He was true in all the word im plies, and faithful to everything. An intellect that scholarly investi gation of all subjects broadened, and brought out in their higher sense, made him a man whose life benefitted his fellow creatures, in ways,which, although not always seen, really counts most. For thirty years he has been an earnest consecrated minister of the gos pel. Was pastor at Midway, Ala.. 11 years, Dawson, Ga., 5 Cartersville, Ga., 4 years, Blakely, Ga., and neighboring churches, being pas tor of the latter named church at the time of his death. He was called home from his labors there to attend the funeral of his little grandson, little more than two weeks ago, was suffering with a cold then and very soon was pros trated. From the first he has been dangerously ill and no more anxiety and solitude over the con dition of a citizen has ever been manifested in any community, and while his death was expected, the news this morning that the end had come has cast a gloom over our city, where he was so highly esteemed and so much loved. He leaves a devoted wife and two sons, Messrs. F. M. Patterson of this city and W. R. Patterson, of Greensboro, N. C., and deep and sinceae is the sympathy which goes out to them in their affliction. The funeral takes place this after noon at three o’clock from the First Baptist church of which he was so long a member and from which pulpit his voice has often been heard, telling the way of “the true life.'’ The pall bearers will be Messrs. E. B. Young, S. H. Dent, C. C. Skillman, G. L. Comer, J. D. Godwin, O. T. Moore and C. A. Locke. TOT CAUSES NIGHT ALARM "One night my brother’s baby was taken with Croup,” writes Mrs. J. C.

The people in the neighborhood of Linwood, a few miles south of Adairsville, are just no v somewhat exercised over the arrival among them of an old gentleman and two children from Mississippi; where the wife and one or two children had died of smallpox. The peo ple claim that they have had the disease, fully recovered and have certificates to that effect. They came from a locality where smallpox raged and many died. It has been said that that section furnished the only genuine small pox of the country, the other dis ease being called Cuban itch, which has prevailed in different sections of the entire country, principally in the east. What makes the people of Lin wood more fearful is that the new citizens are looking for their household effects, and it is feared that the germs of the disease will be transported to their locality. Inasmuch as the people are said to have been from a point where the disease developed to its most malignant type, it would be wise that the matter be given an inves tigation by the proper authorities.

News reached the city last Wed nesday of the sudden and unex pected death of Mr. Frank Steph ens, a young man born and rear ed at Stdesboro, in this county, that occasioned sorrow among those who knew him well. Mr. Stephens was the youngest brother of Mrs. J. P. Anderson and Mrs. W. H. Milner, and a son of the late Dr. S. F. Stephens, of Stilesboro. Mr. Stephens since his depart ure from Cartersville several years ago has been engaged in the cotton mill machinery business, starting in one of the large mills of North Carolina. He was an apt student in those lines and promotions came fasc as a natural result of his incessant devotion to his work and thoroughness in which he a : quired the details of his business. From an insignificant position he rose to a superintendent’s place, from there going on the road for a large concern in handling ma chinery and was making still greater success. At the time of his sickness and death he was “on the road,” at Elizabeth City, Va., traveling out of Charlotte, N. C., where he resided. The attack was sudden, and in the short space of three days, be fore his wife could reach him pneumonia had accompli died its fatal work. Mr. Stephens was 36 years of age, married, his wife surviving him. Cut down in his young man hood, with a short life so full of accomplishments and a future that seemed to promise everything, his deatli is an extremely s:d one, and his bereaved relatives have the sympathy of a large circle of friends. LITTLE RUTH DWELL?'.

The Charlotte N. C., Observer tells the sad story thus: “Ruth, the To-year-old sister of Messrs. Edward, Clint and Harold Dwelle, died today at 1:30 at the Private Hospital of appendicitis. She was taken sick Sunday but her symptoms were not alarming until yesterday afternoon. She was so violently ill that the phy sicians saw that ai operation was the only chance of saving her life. She was taken to the hospital at 1 o’clock this morning, and the operation performed. The disease had progressed too far, and death ensued today. “Deceased came here with her brothers. Messrs. Edward, Clint and Harold and sisters, Misses Marv and Laura Dwelle, from Cartersville, a year ago. Their home was on South Brevard street. Ruth was the youngest and was an unusually bright, attractive girl. Mr. and Mrs. Dwelle died some years ago, leaving the three daughters.
