Advertise now. Cotton H% m The sweet potato crop is a huge one. Oik* hundred more dwellings should be built here at once. Wednesday was as tine a day for an election as we ever saw. The average brother in black took a full hand in the election yesterday. The heavy frosts of the past few days has done its work on tender vegetation. Oar tire company is a live one, if it has no apparatus. The way the boys can sling buckets is a caution. In union there is strength —let every body pull together for Cartersville, and a grand future awaits her. It is rumored that the grand jury is scenting ’round for blind tiger dens. If tlmre is auy they will find them. T he school book t rust is about as big an outrage as the cotton bagging trust, ami should be squelched by some means. We know of several families who would come to Cartersville at once if there were houses to be had. Let the building boom proceed. Cartersville should have a splendidly equipped one hundred room hotel for the accommodation of winter visitors from the North. The male members of the Baptist church are earnestly requested to attend the prayer meeting at the church at-7 o’clock Friday night. A number of (’artersville's bright girls left for different colleges last week. Next year they can stay at home and attend one of the best colleges in the country. Last Sunday was a day of great in terest at the churches of this city. A large number of members were received as the result of the great tabernacle meeting. A large number attended the baptizing at the river last Sunday afternoon. A number of candidates were immersed by Lev. W. H. Cooper, the faithful pastor of the Baptist church. Parties interested in legal-advertising of any kind shou’d remember that the law regulates the prices and contemplates cash payments—and the publisher’s rule is not to complete any advertising until paid for. The city council has bought a lot in the Southern part of the city for the loca tion of the gas works. Mr. Blaisdell writes that everything is lonely at the other end, and this enterprise will doubt less be the means of Tn-inging thousands of Boston capital to Cartersville. On account of the lateness of the hour we have just time to advise the reader to put on his specs and search out the ad vertisement of It. \V\ Satterfield, on out fourth page, and read it carefully. We shall refer to his extensive institution again next week. Rev. W. H. Cooper, of this city, is chairman of the committee appointed by the Middle Cherokee Baptist Associa tion to look utter the location of the Male High School or college to be estab lished by the association. Cartersville is the very place for this institution. Let’s have it. The most important thing right now is to hurry mi the waterworks and or ganize a fire department. The city coun cil should buy a first class engine at once. A few hours work of the flames would destroy property enough to pay for a dozeu fire engines. Don’t wait till the fire comes. Capt. Maddox gave us a copy last week of “The Dixie Land,” a paper pub lished at Dallas, Texas, in the interest °t ex-Confederate soldiers. One feature Hie paper is a ft*v columns each issue devoted to the “Roll Call,” where you Ret the whereabouts of many old Con federate veterans. Capt. Maddox will furnish you the “Dixie Land” twelve •Months for one dollar, a six-column, eight-page, bi-monthly paper. Last week’s issue of Frank Leslie’s Il lustrated Weekly was accompanied by a large and splendidly illustrated supple ment, devoted to theuew enterprises and country generally of Georgia and other Southern States—mainly devoted to Georgia Among other attractive fea tures is a fine picture of the iron mines near Cartersville. Every merchant in Cartersville should have an in the Courant-Ameuican. Every man in the county, whose trade is worth having reads the county paper, and you have an opportunity to talk to them through our columns. In this day the business man who ignores the importance of printers ink, is apt to get left. Married, at the residence of the bride’s father. Mr. J. L. Luther, on the 2d inst., by Rev. A. H. Rice, Prof. J. M. Boyd and Miss Mattie A, Luther. A large company of friends witnessed the cere mony, and many nice presents to the bride evinced the high appreciation of her many friends. The happy couple left at once for a visit to the home of Prof. Boyd’s mother. Miss Darst, of Columbus, Ohio, who has taken charge of the Art department of West End Institute, was in the city last Saturday, organizing her class and pre paring to enter upon her duties on Satur day next. She is a very fine artist and brings certificates in all branches of the art department from the Columbus art school. Specimens of her work can be seen at ihe residence of Mrs. J. W. Harris Sr., on Main street. Persons desiring to join the class can find her at West End Academy on Saturday, Oct. 6th, from 9 to 3p. m. She teaches sketching from nature, prospective drawing, sketching from lite, casts, etc. IT WILL BE FINISHED. The Funds Raised for Completing the Sam Jones Female College. A meeting was held at the Methodist church last Thursday evening to con sider the question of hurrying on the completion of our splendid female col lege building. J. H. Wikle presided, with G. 11. Au brey at the secretary’s desk. Rev. Sam .lones stated the object of the meeting. He said the sum of $3,500 was still needed to complete the building, and he proposed to raise it at once or drop the whole thing. He was willing to add SSOO to his former sub scription, or it those present would raise 2,500 lie would guarantee to raise SI,OOO on the streets next morning, aud then furnish the building complete when finished. Most of those present had al ready subscribed liberally, but they will ingly gave more, and after a good deal of fun the $2,500 was raised, and there was general rejoicing all over the house. The following morning Ram .Tones suc ceeded in raising the other SI,OOO, aud there is now nothing in the way of going ahead with the work. It was brought out that the work had not been suspended for lack of money, as the treasurer had three or four hundred dollars in hand, but the delay was on ac count of material not arriving prompt ly. The contractors agreed to get to work at once and push the building to completion. When Sam Jones is backed by such public-spirited men as Baker & Hall, Col. Tom Milner, and a host of others we might name, it is an easy matter to raise money for a worthy public enter prise. We hope the committee will now see to it that the work is completed at the earliest day possible. The building should be ready and a faculty organized for the spring term. This will be one of the handsomest and best adapted college buildings in Geor gia, and we do not believe there is a bet ter location for such an institution than Cartersville. The college will be worth as much to our city as the iron furnace or rolling iniil. Hurrah for Cartersville! A well known citizen of Lancaster, Fa., Mr. L. B. Keifer, writes: Having a sprained log of almost thirty days stand ing, and after trying half a dozen adver tised preparations in the market with out satisfactory results, I was advised to try Salvation Oil, did so, aud in less than three days my leg was all light again.
