July 5, 1901 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, Look Here All you good people who have assumed the risk of carrying your money about your person or keep ing it at your homes during the past three years, and have refused to keep a bank account, because of that little troublesome and ex pensive two cent stamp that the in ternal revenue act required to be placed on every check ; let me call your attention to the fact that on and after July Ist, 1901, you can keen your money in the First Nation al Bank, Curtersville, Ga ,where it will be absolutely safe, and may be checked out by you whenever wanted , without any stamps, cost or expense to you, whatever.
