FEBRUARY 14. 1901,
Somebody wants to star Mrs.
Nation in “Ten Nights in a Bar
Room.” One day in a bar room is
all Mrs. Nation needs to make a
lively presentation.
“This side” or “that side’’ should
not be considered in the location
of anew court house for Bartow
county. The most suitable loca
tion which can be obtained at a
reasonable price should alone gov
ern in the selection of a site.
When Atlanta fails to get up
any other sensation, the citizei s
fall back on the old car shed, and
give it a few raps. The board of
health ripped up the flooring last
week, but were stepped by an in
junction.
Three thousand male citizens of
Topeka, Kansas, in mass meeting
decided that the numerous “joints”
of that city must close. They is
sued an ultimatum giving the
•“jointists” till Friday, Feb. 15th
at 12 o’clock noon, to quit busi
ausi. If this is not done warning
was given that 1,000 armed men
would immediately move on the
“joints” and remove them by force.
The action is the result o the cru-
started in Topeka less than
ten days ago by Mrs. Carrie Na
tion. The meeting was said to be
a remarkable one in every respect.
A correspondent of the Philadel
phia Record gives the following in
spiring description of pension leg
islation at Washington: ‘About
four weeks ago I was in the house
while they were considering (?)
and passing pension bills creating
some and increasing others. Our
representatives, or at least the few
that were in attendance, were either
writing, or dictating letters, talking
together, or walking around the
hall. The clerk read over the bill
and after he had finished the
:er asked the question. “All
in favor say aye contrary no.
.Ayes have it’ —without waiting to
if anyone objected. In this
way one after the other was p. ssed
as fast as the clerk could read and
the speaker put the question. I
was there, I suppose, about half an
hour, and in that time at least
.twenty pension bills were passed.”
That cough
hangs On
You have used all
sorts of cough reme
dies but it does not
yield; it is too deep
seated. It may wear
itself out in time, but
it is more liable to
produce la grippe,
pneumonia or a seri
ous throat affection.
You need something
that will give you
strength and build
up the body.
SCOTT’S
EMULSION
will do this when everything
else fails. There is no doubt
about it. It nourishes,
strengthens, builds up and
makes the body strong and
healthy, not only to throw
off this hard cough, but to
fortify the system against
further attacks. If you arc
run down or emaciated you
■ should certainly take this
j nourishing food medicine.

THE LEGAL ADVERTISING.
We have received the following
card from Mr. R. L. Griffin, sheriff
of Banow county:
Editors of Cotirant American
and News: Gentlemen:—-I am
reliably informed that some time
prior to my term of office as sheriff
of Bartow county, Georgia, a con
tract was entered into between the
business managers of your respec
tive papers, by which the legal ad
vertisements were to be published
in each paper and divide the fees
equally; and this arrangement
seems tp have been favored by the
grand piry of the county recently
in .session, which recommended
the continuance of arrangements.
Now gentlemen I am a public ser
vant, and my desire is to serve the
public as best I can, and with this
u l i,i view, I desire to ask through
the columns of both your papers
if you are wiiiing to continue with
same arrangements. If you are
both willing it will be a pleasure to
me to name one of your papers as
the advertising medium under this
arrangement. If you or either of
you are unwilling to continue this
arrangement, I would be glad if
you would so state, giving your
reasons for refusal, so that the pub
lic may fully understand the situa
! tion. lam told by you both that
the present arrangement doesn’t
pay either paper for the \york done,
but the public are not informed on
this matter. Now if each of you
will publish your wishes in the
same issue of your paper in which
this card appears, then I can and
will act witnout any delay in se
lecting the advertising medium for
Bartow eoun y Juring the remain
der of my term of office as sheriff.
This 7th day of Februnry, 1901.
R. L. Griffin,
Sheriff.
Three years ago during the term
of office of Mr. Lee Burrough as
sheriff, whose deputy Mr. Griffin,
the present incumbent was, an un
derstanding was had between the
officers, the News and the Cou
rant American —theCourant Amer
ican being the official organ of the
county —that the Netfs should
also publish the legal advertising
and the two papers would make an
equal division of the fees.
Requests were made of us by the
sheriff for this arrangement, on the
ground, as claimed, as fairness and
enlarged benefits for those havn.g
legal advertising to do, and also
the general public. The grand
jury recommended the arrange
ment of one favorable to the best
interests of the county.
Though \v*e knew it was a con
cession on our part, we agreed to
the arrangement, and supposed it
was satisfactory, the News having
got what it asked for as just to it.
In other towns where two papers
have found an existence, notably,
LaGrange, Dalton, Cedartown and
Covington, this arrangement ex
ists to the seeming satisfaction of
all parties. Although we realize
the financial benefits to each paper
are curtailed, we have no inclina
tion now and never have sought to
disturb the arrangement. While
we are publishing a paper to try
and earn a support for our families
we are willing to make some con
cessions for the benefit of the pub
lic at large. If the News is dissat
isfied with the arrangement, does
not desire its continuance and re
fuses to publish the advertisements
Er the half of the fees, then the
Courant American, to continue as
the official organ of the county, is
willing to publish the legal adver
tising for one-half the legal lees,
thus reducing the cost to those
who are liable for and pay these
fees.
In fine, the preseut arrangement
is satisfactory to. us and we will be
glad for it to continue.
