PROGRESS OF IMPROVEMENT.
Numerous New Buildings Going
Up in cartersville.
Structure* Being Fashed to Completion
That Will Add Greatly to Her Im
portance and Attractiveness.
/* _ r'i— :
When one tasks the observation around
Cartersville a little just now the great
number of improvements underway that
will be revealed to the understanding are
convincing enough that we are in no
stagnant condition and are marching
ahead creditably in the great road of
progress.
About the site the of newest and most
important of our improvements put un
der way, now are signs of a rapid mate
rialization in the conspicuous amount of
work performed in a short week in the
way of preparing the ground prelimina
ries for the 'great furnace. A command
ing group of structures will as soon as
careful painstaking efforts can Fie pushed,
show their proportions in healthful sig
nificance before the gaze in that quarter.
The Sam Jones Female College has re
ceived anew some attentions and but for
some difficulties in procuring necessary
material would now be under the latter
touches that are to bring its exterior to
the finished state.
The great pile of sand now being dumped
in front of the foundation is significant
of the fact that work is soon to be begun
on the walls of the mammoth brick
SIO,OOO business structure of Baker &
Hall. Th osewho have been impatient to
see this work moving on will soon have
their vision greeted with the pleasing
sight.
Work on the Dobbins new brick has
been allowed to lag until tirick can be
had. Mr. Eaves has a kiln of 250,000
now about ready and the ominous ring
of the trowell will soon vigorously re
sound .
The handsome $5,000 residence of
Capt. Sim Mumford will be completed in
about three weeks, the work beingpushed
as vigorously as circumstances will allow.
It is being carefully built and will be one
of the most convenient, commodious and
handsome homes in North Georgia.
Mr. W. J. Neel is having a very hand
some seven room dwelling built on Skin
ner street. It will be finished in about
two weeks, and will add much to the ap
pearance of that popular street.
Mr. Sam Arnold has had his cottage
on Gilmer street finished and is now com
fortably domiciled at it.
Mrs. Field is preparing to have her
residence on Erwin street raised higher
from the ground, added to and modern
ized and improved in many ways.
Mr. George Aubrey has just had a
plain structure he lately purchased on
Kernodle screet transformed into a reg
ular little palace, as bright, cheery and
cosy looking as one could wish.
Messrs. Roberts A Collins have had
their store front tastily painted and other
places bear, more or less, the effects of
the brush.
Few are the towns that can boast of
assolid asliow of improvements, and the
work not more than fairly begun.
The Registration Law.
There was considerable confusion in
the late election, because of the failure of
many Deople to post themselves on the
new law requiring every voter to be ivg
istered in order to vote at any legal
election.
This was to be expected, the first time
the law was in operation. It is always
so. But this law is in force in a number
the counties of this State, and all
over many of the States, and after it is
understood works like a charm. Every
fair-minded man should be willing to aid
in securing fair and just elections, and
close every avenue for fraud and illegal
voting. This is what this law is in
tended tor.
We have heard some attaching blame
to our representatives, who secured the
passage of the law. Others have blamed
the tax collector. This is all wrong.
The blame rests upon the man who neg
lects his duty to his country and fails to
read and keep himself posted up in re
gard to the laws by which he is gov
erned.
When we remember the large number
of names with which the tax collector
has to deal, aud th* nature of his work,
it is easy to see how mistakes might be
unintentionally made Of course the
tax collector would have no reason for
omitting a name which rightfully be
longed on the list. No man would be
fool enough to attempt such a thing if
he had any reason to desire to do it.
The law governing the actions of this
officer is very strict, and he would suffer
fetich malpractice.
After this law has Fieen properly tested,
it will, we think, find favor with every
good citizen in the county—as it has in
Fulton, Bibb, Chatham, and most of the
leading counties of the State, instead of
causiug confusion at the polls.
ENTERPRISE IN THE SOUTH.
Great Increase in tlie Number of Manu
factories Over Last Year.
Baltimore, October B.—The Manu
facturers’ Record in its quarterly review
of the South’s industrial progress shows
that during the first nine months of
1888 there has F>een a great increase in
the number of new enterprises organized
over that of 1887, when the “boom”
was attracting so much attention. A
comparison of the new enterprises re
ported during the first nine months of
1888 and 1887 shows a total gain of
348.
The amount of capital and capital
stock of the new enterprises for the first
nine months of 1888: Alabama, $19,-
939,000; Arkansas. $5,900,000; Florida,
$2,940,000; Louisiana, $5,259,000;
Maryland, $6,059,000; Mississippi, sl,-
591,000; North Carolina, $5,254,000;
South Carolina, $3,850,000; Tennessee.
$8,660,000; Texas, $14,836,000; Vir

Judge It 11. Field.
The Governor of Missouri has appoin
ted Mr. R. H. Field, formerly of this city,
judge of the circuit court of the 24th
dstrict, in which Kansas City is located.
The papers of that city speak in the
highest terms of the new appointee.
The Kansas City Times of Thursday
says: “He was selected by the members
of th3 bar as their choice at a meeting
held at the law library Wednesday after
noon of last week, Mr. Field received the
largest number of votes from the start
and was selected on the fifth ballot, re
ceiving 96 votes to 87 for Major Mister.
“The appointment is an excellent one,”
said Mr. Wash Adams last evening,”
and Mr. Field will make a good judge.
The governor promised to appoint him
without hesitation.
The members of the committee visited
Mr. Field upon their return from Jeffer
son City last night and formally notified
him of the result of their conference with
the chief executive.
Mr. Richard H. Field was born in
Cherokee county, Georgia, December 27,
1853. He began to study law at the
age of 20, and was admitted to the bar
at Cartersville, Ga., m 1875. He came
to Kansas City the following.year, and
has since been engaged in the practice of
his profession, in which he was very suc
cessful. In 1.880 Mr. Field married Miss
Annie Camp, of Marietta, Ga., and is the
father of three children.”
In connection with a long article about
the appointment, that paper also pre
sents a splendid picture of Judge Field.
Another Hero Fallen.
The Jacksonville dispatches of Sunday
contained the following sad announce
ment:
“Edwin Martin, editor of the Times-
Union, died at 10 o’clock this morning,
lie had rested quietly until about 4 a.
in., when he became delirious and restless
until death relieved him. He stood hero
ically at his post through the entire
epidemic, and the conservative, cheerful
tone of his editorial opinions had done
not a little to allay fear and keep up the
courage of the people. He was born in
Tennessee, entered the Confederate service
at the age of fifteen, practiced law, and
subsequently edited a weekly paper in
one of the northern counties Georgia,
in whose legislature he served two terms.
He was for some time on the editorial
staff of the Savannah Morning News
and came to Jacksonville in the latter
part of 188 G as managing news editor
of the Times-Tnion. In March, 1888, he
was made editor-in-chief of the News-
Herald, and upon consolidation of that
paper with the Times-Union he became
managing editor. He was about forty
two years of age, leaves a wife and three
children, at present in Savannah, Ga.,
and a sister and aged mother near this
city. His death has cast a gloom over
the entire community.”
Nobly Said.
Governor Gordon opened the Home
exposition on Tuesday morning with
one of his characteristic speeches that
makes the welkin ring and hearts throb
with pride After enumerating many of
Georgia’s advantages, he said:
“In conclusion, I want to join you in
assuring our friends of other sections
that they need no longer fear our South
ern suns or Southern air. Come among
us, friends of the North, and we will
make you glad. [Applause.] Come among
us and we will greet you with helpful
hands, with hospitable homes, and with
cheerful hearts. Come to this Southland,
all ye that labor and are heavy laden
with debt, and w # e will make you rich.
[Applause.] Come to this Southland, ye
who are chilled by biting frosts and
blasting winds and will have your cheeks
kissed by the softest air, and your eyes
gladdened by the sweetest sunlight
Come to this land of the sun and we will
give you health, wealth, welcome and
happiness. [Prolonged cheering ]
CARTERSVILLE. GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER £, 1888.
A TRAGEDY IN ANNISTON.
The Editor of the Anniston Hot
Shot by Roughs.
The Yellow Fever Still Bad at Jackson
ville—Heath of an Editor—
Other New*.
There is great excitement at Anniston,
on account of persistent violations of the
prohibition laws. Editor Edmondson,
of the Hot Blast was dangerously shot
in his office by roughs, l>ecanse of his
stand for the enforcement of the laws.
THE YELLOW FEVER,
At Jacksonville, Tuesday there were 93
new cases and four deaths, Wednesday
63 new cases and 3 deaths.
Four lie"' cases were reported from De
catur, and several refugees have died at
other places.
The fever gets worse every day at Fer
nandina.
Expenses of Government.
Banker’s Monthly.
The growth and magnitude of the
United States are brought out very
strikingly in a little t>ook of sixty pages
issued by the treasury department, enti
tled “Receipts and Disbursements of the
United States for the Fiscal Year Ending
June 30, 1888.” Over a million dollars
a day, including Sundays—that is what
the receipts show. The total gross re
ceipts for the year were $371,493,277.
That is several millions more than the
year before, and in fact is more than any
year except in wartimes. The customs
service paid $218,000,000 of it, internal
revenue, $118,000,000, public lands,
$10,000,000, miscellaneous, $23,000,-
000. As to the other side, the grand
total of expense is set down at $267,-
000,000. That leaves a net profit for
the year’s business of $100,000,000 Oa
the disbursements, $45,000,000 were tor
salaries, $68,000,000 tor ordinary ex
penses, $14,000,000 for public works,
and $137,000,000 for unusual and ex
traordinary expenses meaning pensions,
war claims, headstones for soldiers’
graves, maintenance of soldiers’ homes,
etc. There are some curious points
among the incidentals of the expenses.
It shows, for instance, the salaries of the
much groaned about navy to be less
than a quarter of a million a year, while
those of the war departments are four
times as much as the navy salaries. The
salaries and mileage of congress are esti
mated at over $2,000,000 a year.
“Capt. Henry Jackson,” says the New
York Sun, “has had perhaps a larger
professional income than any Georgia
lawyer since Ben Hill died. He received
$40,000 for his admirable management
of the Harwood estate, which he still
manages; $15,000 for his Southern Mu
tual case; $20,000 for the tax cases he
managed for the Northern insurance
companies. His fixed retainers amount
to more than SIO,OOO per annum. He
was lately employed by a St. Louis
client to argue a case in the United States
Supreme court and had an offer of $20,-
000 a year to come to New York as
counsel for an insurance company; but
he will never leave Georgia.”
Mr. J. H. Alexander, secretary of the
Augusta National Exposition, in a let
ter to the Manufa ffurers’ Record, says:
“Our prospects get better every day.
All our exhibitors approve the change of
dates, and we are getting many new ones
from Cincinnati and Columbus, 0., that
could not get here for our original dates.
AVe shall be fuller and more complete and
have vastly larger attendance than was
possible under the original programme.
Our races, November 22 to December 4,
are going to be particularly benefitted
and bettered by the postponement.”
Married.
At Grassdale, at the home of the
bride’s father, on yesterday morning at
7 o’clock, Miss Bettie Pittard was united
in holy wedlock to Mr. G. M. Surrett, of
Summerville, Rev. Mr* Buford perform
ing the ceremony. The couple left yes
terday for Summerville, their future
home. Mr. Surrett is a popular mer
chant of his town, and his thoughtful
ness in corning to Bartow —the home of
loveliness and feminine worth —for acom
parison is to be commended. The bride
fs the daughter of Mr. Samuel Pittard,
and is a most worthy lady.
Attendants were Mr J Frank Wallace
and Miss Lidie Saxon, Mr Henry Saxon
and Miss Anna Cox, Mr James Pittard
and Miss Cora Bishop.
Public Meeting.
There will t>e a public meeting of the
citizens of Carters vide and Bartow coun
ty, at the Council chamber, at 3 o’clock,
p in, on next Monday to consider the ad
visability of making an exhibit of our
mineral resources at the Augusta Expo
sition.
Let everyone who can come out to this
meeting. We have now the greatest op
portunity we have ever had of advertis
ing our wonderful and limitless resources,
and we cannot afford to let it pass.
The Middle Cherokee Association.
Ihe recent session of this body was
unusually pleasant and profitable. Dr.
Ryals, who has been moderator for
twenty years, says he has never attended
one that was more so. Without the
slightest delay the body entered upon
its work. A resolution was offered by
Bro. Callaway that the Association make
an honest, earnest effort to raise the
$1,600 asked for by Dr. Devotie and
that a committee t>e appointed to ap
portion the amount among the churches.
After a few words of explanation by the
writer and others, the resolution was
adopted. Bro. Montgomery said to me,
"N\e expect to raise that much in addi
tion to what has already been contribu
ted. I have not heard of a single Asso
ciation that has complained of the
amount assigned it. Indeed nearly, if
not all have said, “Bro. Devotie did not
ask enough of us.” After the usual
routine of business, the standing com
mittees presented their reports. These
were discussed ably and instructively.
The finance committee reported over sl,-
000 as having been contributed for mis
sions during the year. Besides this, $2Ol
were pledged for ministerial education,
and about $l4O for the church at Bruns
wick. Perhaps the most important mat
ter before the Association was the con
sideration of the establishment of a high
school, to be known as the Ryals High
school. Several bids have been made for
the school but none were in shape to be
accepted by the committee charged with
the matter. The committee have power
to take such action as they may deem
proper in the premesis. It is understood
that Adairsville, Calhoun, Kingston and
McDaniels wil make bids for the school.
The following query was sent up by one
of the churches: “Should applicants
from the Free will Baptists be received
into our churches without re-baptism?”
After some discussion, in which the mod
erator took part, it was answered, “No.
It is unsafe to receive members not bap
tized by scriptuallv authorized adminis
trators.” Among the ministers present
who contributed to the interest of the
meeting were, brethren, Headden, Cooper,
Henderson, Cain, Dyer, Hood, Owens,
Rice, Buford, Golden, Tatoui, Callaway,
Hatcher, and others not now recalled.
The brethren were gratified to see Bro.
Ryals looking so well, aud were delighted
to honor him as moderator. Since the
death of Dr. Mell, lie is doubtless the
best.presiding officer among the Baptists
of Georgia. As the Theological instruc
tor a£ Mercer, he is doing a grand work
for the ministerial students in attendance
there. We have no sounder theologian
than Dr. Ryals. There are quite a num
ber of useful and influential laymen in
the Middle Cherokee Association, among
whom may be mentioned brethren Free
man, Montgomery, Fergurson, S heats,
Rodgers and others. The last named
has been for a long time chairman of the
finance committee. By distributing en
velopes among the messengers, the an
noying method of calling the churches is
entirely avoided, what a blessed thing it
would be if all the Associations had this
part of the business managed as well as
Bro. Rodgers does it! Taking the meet
ing just closed ad together, it was a
model session. Bro. Rice makes ae ex
cellent clerk, and Bro. Freeman a model
treasurer.

STENCIL PIANOS.
Q. What is a stencil piano ?
A. A stencil piano is one on which the
manufacturer's name does not appear.
Q How many kinds of stencil pianos
are there ?
A. Two —in the first of which fraud is
clearly intended, such as “Steinwax” on a
cheap piano lo >ks like Steinway, “Sum
uer” like Solimer, “Hartman might be
mistaken for Hardeman, Ac. In the sec
ond c.se, a fictitious, or sometimes an
agent’s name is placed upon a piano, be
cause nobody would purcliose it, if it had
the true manufacturer’s name thereon, he
(the manufacturer) having sold a great
many of his Pianos (under his own name)
in th.t vicinity, all, or most of which had
turned out badly—in other words, his
goods are too well known to sell on his
name—therefore, he stencils anybody s
name on them for a consideration ; or if
they buy in large quantities, will either
c ist the name on the plate, or have a small
iron name-plate screwed on the plate.
Q. Are all stencil pianos inferior ?
A, Undoubtedly yes; for no first-class,
or even second class msnufacturor will
put another name than his own.
The greater portion of the piano manu
facturers are honest, upright and consciqn
tious men who take a great pride in all
they do; they work early and late in or
der to get up new improvements for their
pianos. They work for years to establish
a reputation: Is it reasonable to suppose
they would stoop to obliterate their own
good name, in order to substitute one of a
comparative stranger living way out west
or south ?
Q, Who does stencilling business
mostly x i
A, There are perhaps 1.50 piano factories
in New York City—of these 25 would put
your name on a piano instead of their own.
C I) Pease and J P Hate have for years
carried on the business on an extensive
scale, and it is natural that we dealers
should suspicion an “illegitimate” as com
ing from them.
Q, How does the stencil fraud affect the
1 agents of legitimate pianos ?
| A, A legitimate manufacturer works
hard for his name ; he must use only first -
, class material, and must make allowance
for dampness, heat, cold, &c., in building
j his action, case, &c. He must useimport
! ed German wire for strings (that will not
break so easily as the American), he must
| get the best artisans—some of whom cost
i him six to eight dollars per day—all of
I which tends to increase the cost, but adds
i to the wearing qualities of the instrument,
1 but not to the looks. A S4O buggy fre
! quently outshines a $l5O one, but it is “no
: good” all the same. After buying only
| first class mater al and paying fiast-class
mechanic-, he finds he can retail his
pianos at $375 to S4OO and make less
j profit than a third or fourth class manu
facturer, who will hire boys to stick the
parts together after mechanics have whit
tled it out. To this man there are only
these conditions to consider: (1) Where
can I buy my material cheapest? (2)
Wno can I get to work for me at less than
; “men’s ’ Day. (2) How quick can I rush
the piano (?) off n.y hands and get to work
jon another ? (4) Nobod}' can hold me re-
I sponsible—my name don’t appear in the
j transaction or on the piano—so how is the
man who buys it way down South to
know me and hold me responsible for my
“boy’ work? Therefore, the cheaper I
get everything for the make-up of the
piano, the more money I make.
This affezts the agents of“honestly
, made” pianos in this mnch, that he has
; been for years selling a first-class piano,
j like the Kranich & Bach, or Weber, at
j from $375 to SSOO, and has hosts of weil-
J satisfied customers; another agent comes
| into his field to sell pianos, and instead of
trying to sell a legitimate piano, such as
Steinway, 'Knabe, Sohmer, or Decker
Bros., &c , he puts forward a stencil piano
in a beautifully finished case, at froms2so
j to S3OO, and advertises that he is a God
: send to the poor down-trodden people,
; who have been robbed for years by old
| established agents, &c., while as a matter
of fact, the old agent could sell you the
same piano under its true name, for SSO
to s7* less money —but perhaps under its
true name it could hardly be given away,
in that locality, somebody having gotten
stuck on one previously.
Q, What do you consider the greatest ;
evils of the stencil business ?
A, That it savors of fraud ; that a man
is trying to sell you something and is
afraid to teh you who made it; that jhe
can come into your city and sell you the
“Gem” piano fora while cheap, and he
knows it is a cheap pifiano, The next
time he comes he has the same piano under
a different name and sells it to your neigh
bor, whom you have, perhaps, warned
against the “Gem,’ a “Jno Smith & Cos,
Smithville, NG, Cabinet Grand French
Triple-repeating action, solid ivory keys,
guaranteed to keep in perfect tune eight
years—and the strings won’t rust, as they
are made of silver, gold-tipped, &c, &c—
--price SI,OO0 —but as long as it is you who
want to buy, only SSOO, with 40 per cent
off for spot cash, making S3OO, To bring
the matter nearer home to you : Go to any
large hardware store, and you will find
knives, saws, scissors, Ac, with the deal
er’s name stamped therein, If A S Jones
keep the store, yon wi’l find “A S Jones”
on the blades of the knives, saws,etc, Tell
him to show you more knives, and he wi 1
get you down a Rogers or Wostenholm
INL. Ah ! now, you say, I have it; I
hare used the Rogers knives for twentg
years, and they are, all good, The same
with the Diston saw. Now. would it not
be foolish for the hardware man to try to
make you believe that the knife or saw
with his name on it was first-class, when
he only asks you one-half as much for it as
the Rogers or Diston, which you know to
be the best?
Q, How can tbe stencil be abolished ?
A, Well, that is a hard question to an
swer — ill the legitimate makers have been
trying to solve it for years without suc
cess, but now al the best music journals
have begun a hard fight to death with the
stensils, and have done a world of good.
The leader of this crusade is the New York
“Musical Courier,” which had the follow
ing “ad” in their paper, as well as in wes
tern daily and weekly papers :
“Have you a piano? Do you know
whether it is a genuine piano or what is
known asstenciljpiano? Full particulars
given free of charge by the Musical Cou
rier, 25 East Fourteenth street, New
York.”
This advertisement has created con
siderable havoc as far west as Oregon,
and the number of inquiries we have
been receiving and answering have kept
several of our force and a typewriter
busy days and evenings. And still the
inquiries come. This advertisement,
which was also inserted in a special edi
tion of the Chicago “Weekly Times" as
well as other Chicago weekly and daily
papers, also created consternation
among the Chicago stencilers.”
Now, this is the kind of work that will
tell against the stencils, and the educa
tion of the general public in musical mat
ters will do tne balance.
A Canal-Boat Campaign.
The N. Y. Democratic State League has
a novel campaign scheme. They will start
jApaual-boat, loaded with speakers and
•mfUpaign documents, to go east from
Buffalo on the Erie Canal. It will be
decorated with portraits of Cleveland,
Thurman and Hill. One of the best
brass bands in ttie State will acecAnpany
the voyagers and discourse beautiful
music as they float down the canal,
drawn by six white horses covered with
flags. Relays of horses are to be sta
tioned along the line to facilitate quick
passug*. A battery of light artillery
will be stationed on the boat to salute
the towns. Two other canal-boats are
expected to accompany the party, carry
ing guests. All the Democratic campaign
clubs of the various counties will be on
hand. The campaign clubs will act as a
guard of honor along the canal until re
lieved by the advancing clubs from other
towns. A glee club will sing campaign
songs before and after meetings. Huge
oxen will be roasted and everything cal
culated to make the meetings successful
and pleasant will be on the programme.
It is estimated that fully 200,000 peo
ple will attend these meetings. Overflow
meetings will be addressed by the best of
local speakers. A printing outfit will be
on board and an edition of a little paper
will be published and circulated in each
town containing a description of the
meetings and the speeches of the ora
tors. Campaign documents will be cir
culated broadcast in the villages.
New York is a battle-ground royal and
will continue to be such until the day of
election. No one can say from, direct
knowledge what the result will be.
Neither party has had an actual poll of
the State —that is, a precinct poll cover
ing all the voters. Both have had re
turns from the county chairmen and
committeemen and at the headquarters
of both Democrats and Republicans
satisfactory results are claimed. How
reliable these are remains to be seen. It
is quite evident, however, that tne men
who are directing the Cleveland cam
paign do not scare worth a cent, and if
the reports which reach them from the
interior are anything like reliable the
electoral vote of New York will go to
Cleveland.
Some days ago the Evening News
printed an account of how Miss Mary
Whitelv and Miss Maude King, two la
dies of Charleston, rescued three men
from drowning whose boat had capsized
and they were clinging to the bottom.
The affair was reported to the Light
House Board in Washington and the
secretary of the treasury has ordered
that gold medals be awarded these la
dies for heroism displayed on the occa
sion.
In face of the last Chicago platform; in
face of the repeated declarations of Gen
eral Harrison, and in face of the months
of persistent denunciation of the House
by party organs and orators, the Senate
majority has fiualiy publicly confessed
on the eve of the election that the tariff
must be revised; that the revenues must
be reduced; that taxes must be lessened
and that the free list must be enlarged.
NO. 11.
