On account of indisposition Dr. Felton did not give us his promised speech last Tuesday. It was postponed to a later day. The doctor has very decided and clear views on the question of the AAA A: A. R. R., and our people are anxious to hear him on that subject. No man in Georgia is better posted. Nearly every day some one i in quiring for a house to rent and one is no sooner vacated than there are a dozen applications for it. There are surely some men in our midst who could invest in buildings to rent and thus not only help the town but realize returns greater than they could reasonably expect from ordinary investments.

Let Bartow county have a man of good judgment to display and explain our resources as represented at the Rome Exposition. Let them gix-e letters of introduction to visitors who want to see our iron fields, splendid lands, etc. Let a committee be appointed to receive them here and show them around. Some such a plan would be a great advantage to us. The furnace matter remains not defii nitel.v settled, as the Birmingham syndi cate is considering a proposition from our city, which there is every reason to believe they will accept. In the meantime Eastern capitalists have given some of our people to Understand that they would readily accept such a proposition’ and put in a furnace plant. It is only a question of a little time—but furnaces we are bound to have. No place in Geor gia offers as fine a field for this class of investment as Cartersville.
