Herr Krupp proposes to build a

It is now believed that Senator

The president’s message is

A yearly advertisement of one col

$39,500, and the paper is never at
a loss for cnstom at that price
either. How greatly aback would>

the little local weekly he taken if
they had occasion to make inquiry
for rates of the Herald office.
Local newspapers are generally
true indexes to the thrift of the
communities in which they are
published. Wherever the home
journal is well patronized, it may
be generally put down as a fact
that the people it is published
among are wide-awake, progressive
and liberal and extend to all new
comers a cordial welcome.
Dividends of from 10 to 24 per
cent, have been realized the past
year from the Fall River cotton
mills. That these mills, so far away
from the raw material, should
prove thus prosperous well exem
plifies the fact that in the south
they bring much more profit on the
capital invested in. them. Loose
capital ought to find its way into
such enterprises oftener than it
does, and as the facts regarding the
certain profits become more patent,
it most likely will.
THE CITY ELECTION.
Next Wednesday the voters of
Cartersville will determine at the
ballot box who are to manage the
aflfairs of the city government for
the next year. A mayor and eight
aldermen are then to be selected.
The Courant-American would
strongly urge upon the voters of
Cartersville the importance of se
lecting the very best men for the
places—men who ure fully imbued
with the spirit of progress and who
will not for a moment allow a halt
in her splendid strides toward a
greater degree of prosperity than
she ever before enjoyed.
We would like to see a council
elected that is thoroughly in sym
pathy with our public school sys
tem, our fire department, water
works and gas; and, instead of try
ing to cripple these by a spirit of
illiberality, endeavo* to do some
thing that would prove equally ben
eficial to our people and assist in
giving the town reputation abroad.
It would be well for our people
to guard against any combinations
that would be made up for the pur
pose of wrecking or crippling our
public enterprises. Vote for no
man- who is not willing and frank
enough to express his views on
questions that are of vital interests
to the town. See that those views
are not inimical to our very best
interests.
Carters ville is now passing
through her most critical period.
It is a question of stagnation or
progress. Every man who is in
favor of the latter should be alert
and allow no one who is opposed
to the moving forward of the town
to have voice in the next city
council.
The Election Next Wednesday.
At the meeting of the council last
Monday afternoon Messrs. J. M.
Moon, J. L. Wikle and T. C. Wat
kins were commissioned to hold
the election for city officers on next
Wednesday. The division lines of
the wards of the city were changed
to the original lines.

EXCELLENT COKE AND COAL.
A Rich Discovery In Which Carters
ville is Vitally Interested.
The Cartersville mineral district
is fust being developed and ere tin
advent of another spring thousands
of miners will be at work, bringing
forth in all their richness our va
ried grades of ores. A supply oi
superior coke at reasonable prices
lias been of great importance and a
question in which our people have
beer. Intensely interested in.
One of the most important move
ments in the bringing about a good
future supply of this necessary ar
ticle was consummated on tin* 28th
of last month by the organization
of the Traylor Coal'and Coke Com
pany at Ininan, Ala., a few miles
town the East and West railroad.
This company has discovered and
secured one of the most valuable
seams of coal yet found in the Ala
bama coal fields, and, as will be
seen by analysis given below, is
equal, if not superior, to any coal for
coking purposes yet found in the
south. 'The company’s stock has
all been taken, and all arrange
ments to fully develop the property
at once have been made. Indeed,
work has already begun, and by
the time the East and West rail
road will have changed its gauge
and enabled to furnish ample trans
portation, the company will be in
excellent condition to ship large
quantities of its product.
The fact of this discovery will be
of vast importance to the develop
ment of our mineral resources—for
it insures to us a supply of the very
liest coke for furnace purposes. The
analysis, as made by J. Blodgett
Britton, a most accomplished and
reliable chemist of Philadelphia,
whose reputation is world-wide, is
as follows: g,
Fixed earbon 93.02.
Ash 5.01.
Sulphur 74.
The seam is a largo one, mines
clean without partings, and already
furnacemen hearing of its discov
ery have endeavored to control its
products.
It is located close enough to Car
tersville to insure us cheap coke
and now when our proposed fur
naces are at work the great Car
tersville mineral distiet will turn
out the host pig in the south, which
will always be in the greatest de
mand.
The fountain of perpetual youth was
one of the dreams of antiqu’ty. It lias

vigor and freshness of youth.

The Firemen's F'air.
The fire department of this city
will hold a fair, beginning Monday,
the 27th of January and will con
tinue for two or three nights there
after as interest in the affair will
warrant. The boys ask of the citi
zens and business men of this city
hearty and full co-operation in
making it a success.
The necessity for an effective de
partment is shown in the well regu
lated departments of other cities in
reducing insurance and otherwise
lessening the danger of risks. It
can only be made so by the full and
hearty co-operation of our people.
It is a volunteer department, the
service of the boys is thoroughly
unselfish and therefore the full
burden of the expense should not
fall on them. The object of the
fair is to equip the department for
effective work. The young men
who compose the department will
take a much deeper interest and
make the department much more
effective by the jieople, showing a
full appreciation of their efforts to
do so, and, in giving this fair, they
wish to give every one an opportu
nity to assist them in their efforts.
If you don’t buy, M. F. Word will not

pleased.

AT THE OPERA HOUSE.
The Al. G. Field Minstrel Company
Monday Evening.
Tiie performance by the Al. G.
Field’s minstrel company last Mon
day evening was an entire success.
It has been a long time since a
company lias given so universal
satisfaction to our theatre goers as
this. The audience was a fairly
good one and fairly went wild with
delight over the many clever things
done by the boys. A striking orig
inality pervaded every feature of
the performance and nearly every
man was a star in his place.
Those who expected the usual
prelude of Brudder Bones and his
tambourine partner were doomed
to disappointment. In their stead
were the “Black Hawks” in camp
and were spending the evening
around the camp tire. In this the
jokes and songs were introduced.
It would be impossible to mention
all, but Billy Vann deserves special
inontion. He is certainly immense
in his negro characterization and
kept all in a roar while he was on
the stage. The statuary elog was a
pleasing feature as was also the
summer outing.
In this connection we would like
to call the attention of our people to
the excellent class of troupes that
now visit Cartersville. Mr. Charlie
Milam, the manager of the opera
house, is using proper discretion in
the selection of his companies, and
only the best can get dates from
him. This entirely does away with
the horrible barn stormers who
have afflicted the town in the past.
Mr. Milam’s efforts should i>e appre
ciated by the people in the way of
a liberal patronage.

<Best of All
Cough medicines, Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral is in greater demand than ever.
No preparation for Throat and Lung
Troubles is so prompt in its effects, so
agreeablo to the taste, and so widely
known as this. It is the family medi
cine in thousands of households.
“ I have suffered for years from a
bronchial trouble that, whenever I take
cold or am exposed to inclement weath
er, shows itself by a very annoying
tickling sensation in the throat and by
difficulty iu breathing. I have tried a
great many remedies, but none does so
well as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral which
always gives prompt relief in returns of
my old complaint.” Ernest A. Hepler,
Inspector of Public Roads, Parish Ter
re Bonne, La.
" I consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a
most important remedy
For Home Use.
I have tested its curative power, in my
family, many times during the past
thirty years, and have never known it
to fail. It will relieve the most serious
affections of the throat and lungs,
whether in children or adults.” Mrs.
E. G. Edgerly, Council Bluffs, lowa.
“ Twenty years ago I was troubled
with a disease of tho lungs. Doctors
afforded me no relief and considered
my case hopeless. I then began to use
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and, before I
bad finished one bottle, found relief. I
continued to take this medicine until a
cure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral saved my life.”
Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, 111.
“ Six years ago I contracted a severe
cold which settled on my lungs and
soon developed all the alarming symp
toms of Consumption. I had a cough,
night sweats, bleeding of tho lungs,
pains in chest and sides, and was so
prostrated as to he confined to my
bed most of the time. After trying
various prescriptions, without benefit,
my physician finally determined to give
me Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I took it,
and the effect was magical. I seemed
to rally from the first dose of this
medicine, and, after using only three
bottles, am as well and sound as ever.”

AN OLD STORY.
When a man says he feels drowsy in
the spring, that his digestion is bad,
and that he don’t feel well generally, he
knows that he needs something to give
tone to his system, to purity his blood
and put his liver in proper condition to
perform the duties of organic life. He
goes to his physician with his same old
story year after year and the physician
prescribes a tonic and alternative. The
best tonic in a ease like this is Dr. West
moreland’s Calisava Tonic. It acts j
charmingly on the liver, purifies the
blood and strengthens the system for !
its daily work. This great medicine can j
