The newspapers are full of red
hot news these days.
The machine men evidently be
lieve in striking while its hot.
Good bye, you two cent revenue
stamp. You were a nuisance to
say the least oY it.
And now they’re talking of
salting down the people right. A
salt trust is being formed.
And now they have to keep an
eye on an Atlanta policeman to
keep him from being murdered.
A Georgia mule was killed by
lightning the other day. At this
rate the Georgia mule’s reputation
as kickers must suffer.
In New York Tuesday 178 peo
ple died from heat, and yet the
isthishotenoughforyou fiend is still
bothering folks around this sum
mer resort.
Atlanta got in on the heat situ
ation. She and San Francisco
were as cool as cucumbers Tuesday
and blankets hadn’t dropped to
summer prices.
A St. Louis newspaper man has
just died who wrote during his
lifetime 1800 obituaries. St. Peter
will please remember this when he
shows up at the pearly gates.
It is claimed that a newspaper
is now running in China that start
ed in the eighth century. The
starters of that paper must have
started in on the cash in advance
system.
The Georgia Weekly Press As
sociation will take in the Buffalo
exposition next week. The mid
way will be knocked out of busi
ness when the Georgia press boys
make the landing.
It would do these north Georgia
fqlks a lot of good if they would
take in some of the excursions to
the ocean. We do not mean to
infer that they should go off and
have some idea how big this world
is and how little some of them
amount to in it.
Now The News does not object
to Atlanta getting all the glory she
can on the square but it does ob
ject to her claiming “Twinkle”
The popular idea expressed in the
phrase, "the art of self-nefense.” shows
the opinion that the chief enemies a man
has to defend himself from are visible
and external. But the real danger of
every man is from minute and often in
visible foes. In the air we breathe and
the water we drink are countless minute
organisms leagued against the health of
the body.
The one defense against these enemies
is to keep the blood pure. Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery thoroughly
purifies the blood, removing poisonous
substances and accretions. When the
blood is pure there is no harborage for
the germs of disease which find a lodg
ing only when the blood is impure and
corrupt.
"I consider -our ‘Golden Medical Discovers
one ot the best medicines on the face of the
earth,” writes Mr, Wm. Fleeter, of Redoalc
Montgomery Cos. lowa "While in the south
west, three years ago, I got poisoned with poi
son Ivy. The poison settled in rav blood and
the horrors I suffered cannot be told in words.
I thought I would go ctarv I tried different
kinds of medicine, tried different doctors, but
all the relief they could give me was to make rav
pocket-book lighter. I then began taking Dr.
Fierce's Golden Medical Discovery Took four
buttles without relief. Kept taking it. I took
in all ten bottles and got entirely cured.”
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure con
stipation.
j and her trainer, Mr. George Stiles.
| Both were reared near Carters
j vilie and both arc at home here
! and the money the great little
j pacer is winning will go into Bar
! tow’s increased resources.
The Atlanta police believe that a
| negro mafia exists in Atlanta
whose purposes are to ki'l the
more active policemen of the city.
It now behooves the Atlanta po
lice to look out for themselves as
well as draw salaries.
Alabama will encourage the ed
ucation of her colored people with
northern money in her educational
voting qualification. * Because a
negro can read and forge other
people’s names is no reason that
he is a good citizen. Alabama
will regret the disfranchisement
of such a mass of voters as cover
ed bv this restriction, when the
republican bosses in Washington
begin to cut down her represta
tion, as outlined in the Ohio state
republican platform adopted a
few days ago. Georgia will stick
to her white primaries.
Mr. Jack Majors has assumed
the editoria 1 and business manage
ment of the Wrightsville Record,
a paper that has been populistic.
Those knowing Mr. Majors and his’
work know that the paper is now
democratic, intensely so, since Mr.
Majors has taken charge. Mr.
Majors has been a hard fighter for
straight democracy yet he has al
ways retained the respect of the
populists and republicans by his
frankness, ability and tairness.
The democrats of Johnson county
can well congratulate themselves
upon having a true blue, always
ready, never fearing democrat to
help tote their banner and the
great principles it represents.
The Alabama consitutionai con
vention will probably make it un
lawful for a newspaper man to re
ceive a free railroad pass. The
newspaper man pays for everv
mile he rides in good hard knocks
and the arrangement with the
railroads is purely a business one,
and not under any consideration
should they be classed with the
politicians, members of legislature
and judges who receive free passes.
A newspaper man doesn't consid
er that he has compromised his in
dependence towards the raihoads
by accepting mileage for advertis
ing space and neither do the rail
roads consider it that way. Don’t
know what they consider about
cheap politicians and judges, how
ever. *
Be sureand read the ad
vertisement of the guess
ing contest. There’s a
chance to make $5,000.
You stand as good chance
getting it as anybody else.
Read the big ad.
A NEGRO’S PLAIN WORDS.
In Topeka, Kansas, is a paper
published by one J. H. Childers,
a negro, which, in a recent article
shows him to be one of the most
plain-spoken members of his race.
The following extract will suffice
to give an idea of the character of
his article;
“The negro is the only one of
God*s creatures who is really
ashamed of himself; who really
wants to be something other than
he is; who wants to be white; who
wants to change the peculiar ra
cial contour of his face; who wants
the kinks and curls out of his
wool; who, when by some hook or
crook, there chances to be a suffi
cient quantity of Caucasian blood
to bleach out his complexion,
wants to draw the line and get
over into the white man's camp;
who when energy, thrift or chance
puts a few extra dollars into his
pocket, wants to be white; who,
when some poor old mother or
father has slaved and sacrificed to
send him to college, wants to get
away from the race. With near
10,000,000 people in this country
who are black, the opportunity for
fakirs to play upon the weakness
of the race is great. With the
growing intelligence of our peo
ple, one cannot but be surprised
that there should be so much se
rious demand for nostrums calcu
lated to do violence to the handi
work of our Creator. What the
race needs more than the vile nos
trums is soap and water indus
triously applied to the cuticle, and
energy, intelligence, honesty and
frugality will make the race ac
ceptable unto all nations.”
THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSVILLE, GA
Written on Visiting the Graves
Of Mv Beloved Dead.
Fold*! ’neath the fragrant flowers, on a quiet
starlit hill,
Free from life and all its labors, they are resting
calm and still.
Little hands that knew no worry, other
hands that knew no rest;
They have crossed beyond the river to the home
of all the blest
Dimpled hands, like waxen lilies, fo'ded with a
baby grace,
Covered o'er with sweetest flowers, scattered near
• her lovely face.
'This 1 see, as one lone mourner, stands beside
her grave today,
Looking through a mist of tear drops, to that
home so far away.
Other hands like snowy daisies resting o’er a
gentle heart,
Fairer far than sculptured marble, or the fairest
dream of art.
Do not wake this peaceful sleeping of our
darling long since fled ;
Some sweet day she’ll wake to greet us; she's
only sleeping; she’s not dead.
Aged hands, liki withered roses, folded o’er a
tired breast;
Hands that long have labored for us, now have
found perfect rest.
Long they toiled, with weary waiting— not a
word of murmuring said.
While they wore this web of living, with a
gold and silver thread. ,
Tell me, oh! some white-winged angel, if the
story thou dost know ;
liut no ansrer bteaks the silence o'er the years of
long ago.
Have they ever sent a message, these loved
one’s here so white and still :
Or must I wait with heartfelt anguish ’til I,
too, sleep upon this hill.
—Lula Tumlin Lyon,

A Tribute of Respect from the
Kingston Historical Club.
We, as members ot the histori
cal club, with • sadness of heart,
offei this resolution on the death
of our friend and member, Mrs.
Birdie Griffin Marling. We de
plore her untimely death. We
miss her cheerful influence, her
intellectual association, her Chris
tian example, and appreciate her
noble character, and admirable
qualities. She sought opportunity
to make those with whom she
came in contact, feel it was good
to be in her presence. By her
death the first link is broken with
in the chain of this club. Her seat
is vacant, and herexample of kind
ness left for us to imitate. We
cherish each virtue she possessed,
for she was the embodiment of
qualifications that make up the
character of a true woman.
We resolve to place this resolu
lution on the book of our minutes,
and to send a copy to her husband
and parents.
