Terkip.le storms raged along the Eas tern eoasts the first of the week, and there were heavy snow storms in Vir ginia. Jacksonville, Fla., had a heavy frost on Monday, and Yellow Jack has about ended bis career. Total cases to date, 1,077; total deaths, 408. A Norwegian savant estimates the age of the world at one million years, but he says no one need be east down over it, as none of the old boys of half a million years ago had much of a time. The totals in the returns of New York St?ite stand: Cleveland. 082,923; Har rison, 040.710; llavrison’t plurality 13,- 703. Hill’s vote is 046,772, and Miller’s 030,005, and I Ell’s plurality. 10,707. The tin horn is a nuisance, but the “tootomater” is anew thing invented 1 hat will make a noise capable of being heard ten miles. The man who will pro vide the small boy of the country with such implements of torture, is next to being a sinner. The Farmers’ Alliance calls upon the farmer members of the Legislature to sec to it that the present vagrant law be so changed and amended as to have its provisions enforced. As it stands, it is worse than no law at ajl. Vagrancy is a curse to any country, and the sooner something is done the better. The Louisville Commercial has figured np the number of Republicans in Ken tucky. who expect to be appointed to office by president Harrison, and declares that if they were to stand in line and hold hands they would make a .girdle around theearth and have margin enough R-ft to tie a bow knot on the other side. The returns from the oilier States are not yet in. The Griffin Sun regards as a practical move the proposition of the Alliance men of Bartow county to form plans by which to purchase fertilizers direct from the manufacturers, and thus save hundreds of dollars, but thinks the better plan would be to form companies among them selves and manufacture their own fertil izers, which, could be done at a mere nominal cost. At last Jack Frost has visited the fever stricken points in Florida. There was a heavy frost at Jacksonville Monday night, and ice formed in a number of places in that city. Frost was also visi ble at Lake City, Live Oak, Enterprise, Palatka, Ocala and other points. All embargo on travel, it is expected, will be taken off December Ist. There was great rejoicing at Jacksonville over the vis itation. Now .that Cartersville has sncli a buoy ant prospect, it will never do to allow anything to occur to defeat progress. Individual interest must not come in the way of public good. Qnly by unity of purpose and a pulling together of citi zens can be attained that which we aspire to attain as a city. Let the leading pur pose of each one be the building up of Cartersville, and even the most hopeful of our people will be surprised to see the great strides forward that will be made in a little while. In the Supreme Court of New York last week, before Judge Barrett, Walter S. Stokes & Cos., recovered a verdict of $20,- 223.10 against Grovesteen A Pell, the bankrupt brokers of that city. On August 2d, 1887, the plaintiffs loaned $20,000 to defendant, accepting as collateral twenty bonds of the East & West Kail road of Alabama and four bonds of the Koine A Decatur Railroad. On the following day the defendants failed, with liabilities of $1.700,821.85. The plain tiffs claimed that the defendants fraudu lent 1 y represented the value of the col lateral. Tom Cobh Jackson and Morris Bran don, of Atlanta, the other day concluded tlmy would fight a due. and then con cluded they wouldn't. As usual iu such cases, mutual friends interfered in time to prevent bloodshed and settle the mat ter between them amicably and “hon orably,” after they had gotten near the chosen ground in Alabama. What these young kids need worst is a good spanking. There is no real bravery in the duel and the man, young or old, who lends his aid to One, is deserving the cen sure of his fellows. Such things are rele gated to the past. The agricultural possibilities of the South, says the New York Graphic, offer ew*ry inducement to the farmer, for the soil gives bounteous returns for the labor that is bestowed upon it. Tp crown all this, there is now spreading over the Southern States a magnificent network of raiiroads that will afford ample trans portation for the product of the field, the mill and the forge. Rates are being equalized and freights put at such a reasonable figure that the producer can send hisgoods to the selling market with the prospect of a fair profit. This has not been so in the past, but modern en terprise renders it profitable in the pres ent. Of course, there is a vast expanse of unsettled territory in the Far West towards which, almost as a matter of tradition, the face of the newly arrived immigrants is turned; but nearer home is the South with all the advantages of quicker returns for investments aud with the promise of a future that is rich with golden reality. A section of .the United States army strayed over the Mexican border last Sunday on a huntingexpedition and were captured as trespassers on foreign terri tory. The Mexican authorities good na turedly decided that they did not want to rob the United States of its army, or any portion thereof, and released the war like trespassers alter two days’ detention. The captured soldiers complain that Mexican hospitality is not all it should be, but as they were the trespassers, the United States Goverment is hardly likely to go to war with Mexico because they were not lodged and fed in the top of the tyle. * The cry h< s b ‘en raised again in Eng land for Queen Victoria's abdication in favor of the Prince of Wales, but Vic. will probably still persist iu wearing tl*e crown, notwithstanding the impatience of hungry subjects. The Georgia Legislature and Henry Grady are both in Augusta today. It is presumed the former will get to hear the latter speak, after all. PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Of nfl questions that are to be con *i ipved hv the people nf Cartersville, non** St)OK hi CO lie before f luii of ]>ubli<* sell* >K. Ti.e.e is i; to i now in the Sol fh, w*- daresay, uml .swii. o.i p Mi - schools that is i:. ico .iltion to ii.-i them so ens’!,\. Theeit non own.-, buddings the ’ .nil a Kb" i s '■<{' ieut’oorn to begin ai.d run i in*sell i m >l.- iu until her condition will justify tl.u erection of more costly and adequate ones. When we contemplate what the system has done for other places, we can not see, in the light of facts, why anybody should bo willing for a moment to stand in the way of their early establishment. The schools of At lanta have been among her proudest boasts, and the pupils turned out of them are better fitted to enter college or en counter the practical matters of life than those from the best of the individual high schools. No such thorough train ing is gained outside of the colleges. The public systems of other towns of the State are little below the standard of Atlanta’s schools. Dalton, West. Point, Newnan. Carroll ton and Cedartown, all of them towns of less importance than Cartersville, have forged ahead ofus in this matter and are now enjoying the benefits of their splendid systems, Let the people tarry no longer in this matter, but push it, now that the question is having preliminary consider ation in the public mind. There are many things we.need, but nothing more than public schools. THE EAST AM) WEST. There is none who are interested in the town who would be willing to underrate the importance of the lively little thor oughfare, the East and West Railroad, to Cartersville. Ever since the road was the Cartersville and Vail Wert her inter ests have been indissolubly linked with those of the town. The completion of the Gainesville extension, by no means an inconsiderable project, will closer link the two common interests, this place now giving promise of becoming a manu facturing point with much shipping of materials and products to do. It is a fact already easily proyen that the receipts of the depot at this point are now more than doublethoseof any other shipping point on the line. As between the town and the road, as the importance of one broadens, so does the other. Registration. Books are now open Those failing* to register can not vote at the coining city electi n. Register ! Register ! Thanksgiving: Services. Kev. G. S. Stewart, of Centenary Col lege, Cleveland Tenn., will preach a thanksgiving* sermon tonight at 7 o’clock at the Methodist church.
