THE PAUPER HOME.
We publish in another column
an article on the pauper’s home, - of
Bartow cotinty, signed by several
ladies of this eit v who have recently
investigated the place.
The" ladies desire to call iheat
tention of the county commfij&iofl
ers to the. present icopditifcn'df the
home and recommend sonif im-*
provements which would the
place a pleasant home for the un
fortunate inmates instead of a poor
house.
The suggestion that the present
farm be sold and one purchased
nearer Cartersville is a good one
and should be considered by the
commissioners. There are tnanv
people in Cartersyille who would
take pleasure in contributing to
the comfort and happiness of the
inmates of the home, which the
distance at present precludes.
The commissioners have no
doubt provided for the home with
the necessaries to sustain the in-
but have perhaps overlook
ed the little things wnich would
add to their comfort and happiness.
The home is necessarily run upon
an economical plan, but some of
the improvements suggested by
these good ladies could be made at
small cost, and should receive at
tention.
The Soldiers’ Home bill came
tip in the house Monday and was
killed by a vote of 83 to 56. A
motion was made to reconsider and
it is thought that it will pass when
it comes up again. Bartow’s rep
resentatives were divided in their
vote, Anderson voting for and
Johnson against the bill.

Delegation to Atlanta-
Adair*yi!l Banner.
A number of our citizens went
down to Atlanta last Wednesday
to go before the temperance com
mittee to tell them that we did not
want Dr Baker’s dispensary bill,
or in fact anv change in the law as
relates to our county from a prohi
bition or whisky standpoint. Our
i citizens were joined by a represen
tative body of Bartow county in
Atlanta.
Not only has Dr. Baker sought
to change our local act in regard to
this matter but he has been the
author of a good many other bills
• that are obnoxious to our best peo
ple. This in the face of his re
peated assertion that he would let
local matters alone, and even in
his announcement published in the
New's under date of Miy Ist this
vear, he says: “Under our law no
local bill can originate in the sen
ate, but must originate in the house
as the law directs. I say this, that
the people may undi rstan 1 that if
they desire local legislation they
must look primarially to their im
mediate representatives in the
house. A senator can only assist
in getting a favorable report for
such legislation from the commit
tee having it in charge and look
after its passage after it reaches the
senate.”
This is indeed strange and hard
to understand. We feel sure that
the committee did what they could
to get Dr. Baker to meet the body
from Bartow’, but the Doctor was
not present at the hearing of his
bill. To one gentleman he claim
ed lie was sick, to another he had
pressing business, and another he
had just made a two houns argu
ment and did not feel like making
another. The committee had ar
ranged the hour and everything for
his special benefit and to the dele
gation’s discomfort, the hour being
5 p. m,, and the train leaving At
lanta starts out at 4:50. Never
theless, a number remained and at
tended the meeting,
Bartow county is, and will ever
remain under lasting obligations
to the gentlemen of the committee
for a patient hearing and every
courtesy that was possible to ex
tend, also to our members in the
house, Messrs. Anderson and John
son for attention and kindness.

“My wife (Polly J. Evans) says she feels entirely cured of systemic catarrh
of twenty years' standing. She took nearly six bottles of thy excellent medi
cine, Peruna, as directed, and we feel very thankful to thee for thy kindness
and advice. She did not ever expect to be so well as she Is now. Twelve years
ago it cured her of la grippe. I want to tell thee there has been a great deal of
Peruna used here last winter. Peruna does not need praising. It tells for
itself. We can and do re ommend it to anyone that is afflicted with catarrh. ”
