MILNER—JONES.
Quiet Home Wedding of a Popu
lar Couple.
Beautiful and impressive in its
sweet simplicity was the marriage
of Miss Mary Louise Jones to Mr.
James C. Milner, which occurred
at “Walnut Grove,’’ the country
home of the bride’s mother. Mrs.
Louise Young Jones, Wednesday
afternoon at 4 o’clock.
The contracting parties are pop
ular young people of sterling
worth and high Christian princi
ples. Mr. Milner is a son of Col.
T. C. Mdner, a prominent lawyer
and an elder in the Presbyterian
church of this city. The bride is
the youngest daughter of the late
Dr. Th®s. F. Jones and a neice of
the late Gen. P. M. B. Young.
“Walnut Grove” has been the
home of the Youngs for several
generations and is a fine old ante
bellum mansion. On this occa
sion the folding doors between
the spacious parlors were thrown
open and the rooms beautifully
decorated in palms, ferns and
white flowers while quantities of
sweet peas added beauty and fra
grance to the scene.
After the ceremony, which was
impressively performed by Rev,
E. M. Crrig, delicious refresh
ments were served and the young
couple, followed by showers of
rice and the good wishes of a host
of friends, left for Atlanta, where
Mr. Milnet holds a responsible
position with Robeson & Holle
man.
The bride was attired in white
organdie and looked sweet and
girlish. Her going away gown
was of gray cloth. The presents
were handsome and, numerous.
On account of the feeble health
of Mrs. Jones the marriage was
very quiet, only the families of
the contracting parties and a few
friends. Dr. and Mrs. F\ R. Cal
houn, Mr. Kirbv Anderson, Miss
and Mr. and Mrs.
present.
MINERAL DEAL.
-*v—
Mr. John P. StegaM Disposes of In
terests to Pennsylvania People.
Mr. John P. Stegall, of
closed a .i. li with Pennsylvania
pee pie Tuesday whereby he trans-'
fers about 160 acres mineral lands
in few simple and the minerals on
other adjacent lands.
Mr. Brittain, who has been oper
ating the Dobbins manganese
property for some time put the
deal through, which will, from
report, do much for this section.
A lease on the Dobbins and Harris
property has been acquired by the
same parties. The Stegall pur
chase contains manganese as well
as iron, and it is reported that the
outputs of these mines will be
turned into pig iron and iron and
ferromanganese furnaces are to
be built at Emerson.
The Pennsylvania people are
very reticent but the report seems
well founded and may mean muth
for this section.
A fearo-manganese furnace has
long been desired to manufacture
the raw material so extensively
mined in this county.

NORTH GEORGSIi
PEACHES BEST.
Superior to any Gipwn For Pre
serving
A recent nu. Tibet *f the Cincin
nati Packer, a trade,journal, con
tains the following of interest to
this section:
“If the public only knows the
value of the Georgia peach for
preserving the housewife would
not wait for the later crop from
the north, but would buy early,”
said D. Martin, the Cleveland
wholesaler. “It was a su'prise to
me, for I have handled peaches all
my life, but last year I took some
home and had my wife put them
up. They were choice Elbertas,
and the results are far beyend any
expectation I had.
“Later on I teok home oilier va
rieties from Michigan and told my
wife I wanted her to do her best.
I was more than pleased with the
Georgia Elberta and it is certainly
far superior to any peach l ever
saw for preserving. It comes out
ofSt’c jar as sound and firm as the
day it went in, wherein the Michi
gan peaches are soft and Tnushv.
1 advise all my trade to buy early
peaches, and I am glad to learn
that we can expect a good crop
this year.”
Commenting upon this subject,
Mr. John Fugazzi, whose firm is a
heavy i-eceiver of the Georgia
peach, states that he is urging all
his shippers to adopt the same
methods of advertising the merits
of their peaches as the California
Prune Growers’ association has
done to increase the sale of Cali
fornia prunes. At a meeting of
the prune growers, a large sum of
monev was voted to be used to
advertise the merits of prunes
when properly cooked and fine
literature and demonstrators are
now employed in a systematic
manner to educate the public.
Mr. Fugazzi is urging all grow
ers to place a small printed slip in
each basket, telling of the good
qualities of the Elbertas.
The Georgia peach is new to the
people at large and from long
habit ihe housewife has waited for
the northern peaches. There
is no question about the Elberta
being much superior to any of the
Michigan stocks, either in size,
color or taste. Mr. Fugazzi’s sug
gestion is a good one and would
enhance the value of the Georgia
peach very much. It only requires
one trial to convince any house
keeper of its superiority, but in
order to break down old customs
a system of education is necessary
The commission houses are fast
learning, but the calls upon a com
mission man’s time are so many
that very little time is left for him
to try to educate the grocer. If
this suggestion was followed oui
every grocer would have a very
strong argument in his hands
whenever he offered'a basket to a
purchaser.
The grow r ers that inaugurated
this movement will soon realize
the value and judgment from the
benefits already coming to the
prune growers by jud’cious adver
: tising, a system of this character
would bring much more money to
j the shippers.
Oow is the tims when croup and
lung troubles prove rapidly fatal. The
oriy tiarraless remedy that produces
immediate results is One Minute

CARTEKSVILLE, GEORGIA. FRIDAY. JUNE 21. 1901.
The Pending Election for tar
Issuance of Bonds and the ISb
tablishment of an Electric Lij hi
Plant.
A Demand for Fair I’lav
To the Legal Voters of ihf.
City of Cartersville, in the
State of Georgia.
On the 6th day of August, A. I).
1888, the city of Cartersville, by
its Mayor, Hon. J. C. Wofford,
and the City Council, entered into
a contract with the Orient Illum
inating Company, a corporation,
and its successors and assigns, in
and by which said city granted to
said corporation the exclusive
privilege, for the full term 'of
twenty years, from the second
day ot' July, 1888, to erect, oper
ate and maintain in said city a
plant for the manufacture, dis
tribution and sale of gas, with a
right to repair, replace, extend,
construct, operate and maintain
the piping, lamp-posts and other
necessary appurtenances on the
highways, streets and alleys, and
in the parks of said city.
It was in and by said contract,
among other things, further pro
vided, that at any time from and
after one year trom the 24th day
of July, A. L). 1888, the city of
Cartersville might, in writing, re
quest said corporation, its suc
cessors or assigns, to ere.:’, oper
ate and maintain a plant with its
appurtenances for the purpose of
lighting the public streets, lanes,
alleys and parks of said city by a
system of electric arc lights. In
that case the city was to give to
said corporation four months’
written notice of its desire to
have said electric plant erected
and operated.
The Orient Illuminating Com
pany at once proceeded to estab
lish said gas plant, and the same
has been maintained and operated
ever since that time in strict com
pliance with the terms of said con
tract.
The Cartersville Light and
Power Company is the lawful suc
cessor of said Orient Illuminating
Company, and has acquired all its
property at 1 cost of ten thousand
dollars ($10,000).
It is now proposed by the city
authorities, under an ordinance
heretofore enacted, to hold an
election in said city Saturday, 22nd
inst., in order to determine the
question whether said city shall
issue its bonds to ♦ho amount of
SIO,OOO tor the purpose of con
structing an e'ectric light plant
and generating and supplying
electricity for lighting the public
streets.
The undersigned, as president
and shareholder of the Carters
ville Light and Power Company,
is deeply interested in said mat
ter. He has come to you with
his capital from another state and
has invested it in said enterprise
upon the faith of said con'ract
with your city. Said company
has at all times faithfully com
plied with the same; it has estab
lished and maintained the reqritr
number of lamp-posts and has
furnished the light for the same
until the time the city authorities
made default in the payment
therefor, although, in order r.o
meet the wishes of your city coun
cil, the company had, prior there
to, upon their application, great
ly reduced the contract price for
the gas consumed.
It is respectfully and earnestly
submitted that the proposition
now made to you citizens to es
tablish an electric light plant at
the expense of the city is a gross
bieach of faith. The contract
WITH THIS C MPANV EXPRESSLV
PROVIDES FOR A MODE IN WHICH AN
ELECTRIC PLANT MAY BE CON
STRUCTED AND OPERATED. It Was
in the light of these provisions
and upon the faith of the assur
ances therein contained that this
company'took charge of the gas
plant in your midst, and any de
viation therefrom, which must re
sult in serious injury to this com
pany, cannot but be regarded bv
every fair minded citizen as a
grevious wrong inflicted upon
those who, confiding in the good
faith of youf city authorities, have
invested their capital in your city.
It is maintained bv some of your
people chat certain provisions con
tained in said contract could not
be legally enforced, but whether
this is true or not, you cannot fail
to see that it was solemnly entered
into under the seal of your city
and with the signature of your
citv could not, as honest men,
have made the contract for the
very purpose of breaking it and
deceiving those who came here
and risked their money for the
purpose of providing your citizens
with light.
I therefore appeal to you, citi-
BOOKS CLOSED.
Election To Be Held To-Morrow
for Bonds.
The election for city electric
r ;
light bonds will be held to-mor
row, 22nd, and from indications
the bonds will be carried with a
unanimity never before experienc
ed in Cartersville.
Out 1T the 325 voters registered
i : is predicted by some that 275 of
them will ca-'t their ballots for the
issuing of the bonds.
There is a small amount of in
.erest taken, apparently, in rhe
matter, little or rio agitation be
ing made on either side of the
question.
Mr. Becker, president of the
Cartersville Light and Power
Company, has issued and circu
luted a circular against the issu
ing of the bonds, which has been
widely read. It is not believed
that its publication has helped
his cause. He uses some strong
terms about breaking of contracts,
etc. Whether it has the effect de
sired by Mr. Becker remains to be
seen.
Those who favor the issuing Of
the bonds are quietly at work.
They are generally the tax pay
ers, who have grown tired of the
poor service rendered in lighting
the streets of the town, about
which there has been a chronic
complaint for years.
The people will no doubt settle
the matter of lights, so long
mooted, to-morrow by declaring
for the issuing of the electric
light bonds.
zens of Cartersville, who have the
honor of your city at heart, and
especially to you, the ministers of
the gospel and all other guardians
of the good morals of this com
munity, to determine by your votes
whether it is right and just that
you should take a step now, in the
face of said contract, by which
you will not only plunge your city
into a heavy debt, but by which
you also brand yourselves and
your city as unfair and outrageous
ly unjust in the treatment of
strangers.

MILNER MEMORIAL.
Presbyterian Church at Raccoon
Mills Now Bears This Name.
Thischurch is at Raccoon Mills,
three miles south of Summerville,
in Chattooga county and on the
C. R. & S R R. On last Sab
bath it was dedicated. Rev. E.
M. Craig, of Cartersville, preach
ing the sermon and offering the
dedicatory pra) er. The church
was built at a cost of about $1,400
in 1896 and has just been furnish
ed with handsome pews at a cost
of $450. It is entirely free of
debt. The name was changed
from Salem to that of Milner
Memorial, a memorial of Rev.
Wm. A. Milner, who for about 25
years so faithfully preached in all
that section.
Without any intention on the
part of those arranging for im
portant events in the historv of
the church, the) have made Mil
ner Memorial to appear as a
daughter of the Cartersville
church. Mr. Milner's grand
father was the first member and
elder of the Cartersville church.
His father was its first pastor;
Mr. Milner was received into the
church here and was the first to go
from this church into the ministry.
Rev. E. 1). McDougall, when
pastor of this church was sent by
the presbytery to assist in the
organization of the church at
Raccoon and held the first meet
ing for the new church and lastly,
Rev. E. M. Craig was called upon
to preach the dedication sermon.
Mr. Craig in calling the attention
of the congregation to the above
facts called their attention to the
fact that Mr. Milner’s
mother was still Hying and a
regular attendant of her church of
which she has been a member for
56 years and that his brother,
Judge T. W. Milner and his sis
ters, Mrs. Chas. McEwen and
Mrs. S. F. Milam were still with
us.
The congregation was deeply
moved by these things which
brought back to them so vividly
their pastor for so many years
whom they loved as a father.
Rev. Wm. Goddard, their pres
ent pastor, is pastor also of Sum
merville and Alpine churches.
