VOL. 8-Mo.s] A FAMILIAR TALK On the North Georgia ai>l North Alabamf Reposition pft toW Snuld be Fepresenfetl With a pixpigv of Agrflcnl Products, Minerals, Ee, 1 porn the attendance and attention at f j, p public meeting at the court house ] d>: Monday, it appears that Bartow rouutv will have a prominent pa o in the Home Exposition next October. I have ;. ( , Q Home attention to this enterprise and find that its projectors are greatly , pa-nest and that Rome has done a |i; idsomo part in starting the bad. Sub ciiptions have been I be-ally made and Piiongli money has ateeady been p om j, ,j to assure success. This exposition is intended to show uo an resources of North Georgia end \orih Alabama. Bartow county, of r joht, therefore, shoulo have the most pro ) oentpart in it. The fact was un < spirted until the receut Piedmont Ex po itioa that Bartow was the richest, o’nt.v in the State. The c.a.in of srpe > riori'y was end is true, notw thsuancing Pie award of the prize to Floyd county i. qrfgl. No one who knows pe so? aPy e irme sand resources of the two coiuitieis can have ativ doubt as to which 8 the bet’ er. T here is as much mineral wealth w'thin two miles of Cartersv"be w all Floyd county possesses, and the richness of Etowah and OothcaliAga vol ]ey ’ands is absolutely unequalled in Georgia. \;#w, it is a simple ques ion of busmeus as to whether we w II “show up*’ at Pome in October. The complaint was that and e e was not sufficient time to make a. thorough exhibit in Atlanta, things put through with such a l ush that 1 •> ade a com non fellow’s head dis y to i the m'dst. But we are p t on roti' e for the Rome show, and while dee is no abundance of time yet there ’s opportunity to “get there.” j The question wM a ise in many mi ids “ sit wo th while to make an exhibit at Lis lit.ie Rome show?”’ The answer comes quick and easy, yes. And in an swer to the fftcttfieifi ve “why,” it may be safely stated that the exposition is going to draw immensely. The drift at this time is K >H&iward,, . People c. e tooling in this direction Tom the North end East for homes. The notoriety given to North Georgia by recent liberal adver tising and industrious “booming” has begotten a desire to see the country of which so much is being said. This Home Exposition is going to be advertised far J and near. John T. Graves, of the Rome 1 ’ibune, than whom no g eater boomer * ists, will take the road in August and “svvmg around the circle” in beha fof the e position. His eloquence, intelligence, energy and enthusiasm will raise the whoop and start the procession. Floyd county has already "ally deter- i mined to be in the midst and n ount the swelling- tide. Will Bartow don her tghti g garb and battle by her side? I hope so. Unless we decide to take our 1> o\ er plape in the front rank of the first art of for ”s we’d as well stand aside en -1 el.v and give our room to some other r "<n(v. If a. little enthusiasm can only orsed among our eople we ecu *0 uig i,,j 0 ]j ne f} ie ; iear ] of the pro ''N'O i. Lot’s do it. eyou asking what advantage is to o, ri ' led by all this bustle and display? ‘ 'St i n. A majority of tle people who ''Oire to this show will be homo-seekers. I -' s they walk around you will bo able to hear the jingle of money in the' * 'Dockets. As tiiey look at our display a desire to 1,1 vest will be aroused and they vill branch out Com Rome like foragiug S( nuius from ail av-ny locking for the hills and fie’ds and woods from whence n’ these samples e me. Soon thereafter s °me of their money will begin to jingle 111 our pockets and some of our fields wi begin to blossom aid fructify unde’ their care. Bu:e, a nd we need the'r money.

Our lively little sister, Emerson, may be young, but she knows how to attract attention, get a crowd and ceicbrr. e a grand occasion. Col. Tom Milner said at the court house meeting last Mommy that Emerson had spent more money for printer’s ink than Cartereville. And she is already reaping a harvest from it. Arriving on the noon train, we beheld a vast crowd assembled in one of he most beautiful oak groves : n .Georgia, and soon after were listen ip 'o Mielo q -ent spe*vh from Jvidg Jo°’ F anham, of Rome. Other distinguished gsntie *nen, including onr r ohn A in, had already poured out a delugeo?eloquence, and we soon fe’t, perfectly r; Fiuscd by absorption. About this time dinner was t nnouuced. and the multitude moved toward the tables, which we r e laden with some of lie finest barbecued meats we ever- s: ,w . There might have been some differences of opinion ou the tariff or oilier ques .ions, but on tf Is pa. t of the prog : am me all were united. But notwithstanding the healthy attack, here was plenty an* l to spare. A splendid brass band enlivened ih’ngs with delightful music; in the havdsome little church nearby the organ’s mellow notes mingled with tl-e raop.y voices of young folks; the boys played, the me * took it easy, and, all i all, we don’t know that we ever saw a better satisfied crowd. Soon after dinner the young folks began *to dance on the platform, and kept it up until the heat admonished them to desist—but they had a joveus melting time of it. while the fuu lasted, Emerson is destined to prosper. Bar tow county is proud of uer. The large new- hotel, nearing completion, is a splen did structure, and a, number of other new lildings give Fe now city an apv.-ar s nee of thrift ar.d enterprise that is truly refreshing. Messrs. Jones, Stegall, Pierce and the t-any other live men who conceived and managed this celebration so • •ji cesHfully have cause to congratulates on the eminent . success' 4 'of the w'koL affair.
