that is in progress. Many accessions are
being made and the meeting will prove a

nity for time to come.
Albert Smith, a one-legged Confederate
soldier, announces this week for tax re
ceiver. He was a member of the old

as a soldier. lie is a clever gentleman
and would make a good officer if elected.
Mr. “Bud” Garison, whose illness w r e

by many.

the reach of people for miles, and great
crowds will no doubt be in attendance.

distant day. We know the property and
do not hesitate in saying that a tine bar
gai iis offered. The water power alone
is worth the price asked for the whole
property.

of Rev. Sam. Jones, will reach here at

Committee.
Cartersville, Ga., August 18th, 1886.
The Democratic Executive Committee
of Bartow county, Ga., met this day at
the court house in said county in obedi
ence to a call by Major Andrew F.
Woolley, chairman, and all of the mem
bers of said committee were present in
person or by proxy except B. A. Barton
and Elihn Abernatny. The meeting was
called to order and presided over by the
chairman, and the following resolutions
were adopted, to-wit:
Be it resolved, That the resolution
heretofore adopted by this committee
calling a primary election to be held
in said county on the first Saturday in
September next, for the purpose of se
lecting two candidates for the Legisla
ture, be and the same is hereby rescinded,
arid the call for said primary election
is hereby revoked.
Whereas, There are now two Execu
tive Committees in this county, caused
by a division of the democracy. Now
therefore in order to heal all differences
and unite the two factions and have but
one executive committee for said county,
Be it resolved, That a mass meeting of
all the democrats of Bartow county,
Georgia, be and the same is hereby
etlled to meet at the court house in Car
tersville, Georgia, at twelve o’clock m.
on the first Tuesday in September, 1886,
for the purpose of electing anew execu
tive committee for said county for the
next two years.
Beil farther resolved, That the commit
tee of which Robert H. Jones is chairman
be requested to join in this call for said
a ass meeting.
Resolved, That each of our county pa
pers be requested to publish these pro
ceedings at least two times in order that
the people generally may be notified.
On motion the committee adjourned
subject to the call of the chairman.
Andrew F. Woolley,
James B. Conyers, Chairman.
Secretary.
From Col. Jones.
Cartersville, Ga., July 30th, 1886.
Maj. A’ F. Woolley—Dear Sir and Bro.:
1 write to suggest that in the interest of
organized democracy in this county, you
unite with me in calling a general meet
ing of the democrats of the county to
come together at the courthouse at an
early day, you suggesting the day, for
the purpose of adjusting matters and
agreeing on an executive committee that
shall give satisfaction to all concerned.
I have consulted with some of the dis
creet men' of the county, who approve
most heartily of my suggestion.
Please write me at once and put your
letter in shape for publication setting the
day. Think it important for the interest
of the county that it be called very soon.
The reasons are many. Our call can
come out in the papers next week.
For myself I have no political aspira
tions or ambition, to gratify—no enemies
to punish. Neither have you. Send
you notice to me in your letter in reply
and I will publish one with it.
Yours truly,
R. H. Jones,
Ch’m. Bartow Cos. Ex. Com.
Having received no answer to the
above letter I publish it that the public
may understand why our committee can
not participate in the mass meeting call
ed by Maj. Woolley and his committee
on first Tuesday in September.
R. H. J.
The Democratic Executive Committee
of which I have the honor to be chair
man has been recognized by the state
democratic convention as the rightful
representatives of the Bartow county de
mocracy. This committee takes no part
in the call for a mass meeting issued by
Major Woolley’s committee. This call
will therefore not be obeyed by the or
ganized democrats, as none w ill be bound
by its action. It will have no authority
to act for the party. This is written in
all kindness and respect personally for
the gentlemen who compose that so-call
ed executive committee.
R. H. Jones,
Chairman Executive Committee Demo
cratic Party Bartow County.
THE TABERNACLE.
Tho Immense Building Completed and
Ready for its Occupancy To-Morrow.
The great Union Tabernacle has been
completed and will be ready for the com
mencement of the big meeting to-morrow
morning. The work has been done in a
very short space of time hut very sub
stantially.
The Tabernacle will he the means of
considerable good to the community as
well as to the surrounding country. It
will be to Cartersville what Rev. Mr.
Talmage’s tabernacle is to Brooklyn. It
is an accession that will be heartily ap
preciated by the people generally, and
the gentlemen having its ‘"erection in
charge merit the praise ot all. The
building 13 one hundred and six feet
Wide anl one hundred and twenty-six
feet in length—capable of seating com
fortably in the neighborhood of eight
thousand people. The rostrum is an ex
tensive affair upon which a choir of three
hundred persons can be placed with
ease, while in front of the choir a neat lit
tle pulpit has been erected, just on the
edge of the immense platform.
Around the Tabernacle building plen
ty of room is had for the pitching of
tents and plenty of water is to be had
handy for all purposes. Groves sur
round the whole affair and makes a
pretty sight. The Tabernacle is beauti
fully situated on a knoll, making the
drainage perfect. All in all the location
is certainly the most desirable that could
be had, and those in charge were very
lucky in getting the ground.
The different railroads have placed
cheap tickets on gale for those that desire
to attend the meeting.
Transportation to the grounds will be
sufficient, several conveyances will be
put in operation. Nothing will be left
undone to take care of the crowds. Re
freshments of all kinds will be found at
the grounds—everything from a lemo
nade to a good dinner. The privilege
for refreshments has been let to Mr.
William Maffett, of Rome, who is in
every way capable of giving satisfaction.
He has erected tents and will be ready
for the largest crowds.
A great and glorious time is in store
for all that will come. Spiritually the
meeting will prove a regular harvest.

the Ithiea Calendar clock, at less than

A MOONSHINER IN MISERY.
United States Deputy Marshal Creed H.
Cunyus Makes His First Arrest.
The people in the neighborhood of
Pine Bower church near the line of this
and Paulding counties have been con
siderably annoyed in the past few
months by the operations of an illicit
distillery in the neighborhood. Young
men would drink the vile product of the
still and attend church, making them
selves in many instances, very disagree
able. The attention of Mr. Creed Cun
yus, who has been lately made a revenue
officer, was called to nuisance, who set
about for the abatement of the same.
Information reached his ears that a
“run” would be made Saturday, and
having located the still, Mr. Cunyus re
paired there in company with an assis
tant Friday night. They laid in the
hushes all night awaiting developments.
Their patience was rewarded next morn
ing by the appearance at the still of a
white man by the name of John Sims,
who immediately went to work prepar
ing mash, etc., preparatory to making a
“run.” He soon had a bristling lire
under the still when the officers ad
vanced on him. He made a slight re
sistance and began to whistle, which was
all quieted however by a pair of hand
cuffs being slapped on him. Sims told
the officers that the whistling was to put
his partner, who had not arrived, on
guard. After leaving the still the fellow
was met in the middle of the road with
a keg on his back, but was allowed to go
as he had not been caught in the act of
distilling.
Sims was brought to Bartow jail Sat
urday morning and given a hearing be
fore Judge Collins. Mr. Cunvus in
forms us that the news of Sims’ arrest
spread like wildfire, and he constantly
met parties on his way to the depot who
had heard of the arrest. How the news
travelled so fast is a mystery. This is
probably one of the secrets connected
with the moonshiner’s life.

A FREE LIBRARY.
The Customers of Mr. D. W. Curry Re
ceive the Benefit of .One.
Mr. Curry has added a feature to his
already popular establishment that is
bound to please his customers. The
customer to the amount of two dollars
gets the benefit of a fine library free of
charge. An immense number jof the
most popular works of the present day
have been purchased for the purpose of
giving them plenty reading matter. A
customer can take a volume of some fa
vorite author, read it and exchange it
back for anoiher, and so on until the
last volume is read. At present there
are one hundred fine novels from the
pens of some of the most eminent au
thors known to the reading public. They
are all standard authors top. A custo
mer, by hard reading, say one volume a
week, has enough of the finest litera
ture to last two years. When the pres
ent lot is pretty generally read another
one will take its place. Now, here is a
glorious opportunity to secure an im
mense amount of "reading matter by
simply purchasing a couple of dollars’
worth of goods from the drug store of

A Sad Death.
We have just learned the particulars
of the sudden death of Mrs. R. H. Can
non, in Florida, whose remains w r ere
brought to the old family burial ground
near Stilesboro, for interment last week.
The deceased was hearty and well on the
morning ot her death, 17th inst., and
about ten o’clock she became suddenly
ill. A physician was called in who pro
nounced her ailment as paralysis, and
stated that her3 was a serious case. At
one o’clock in the afternoon, just three
hours after being stricken, she was a
corpse.
Col. Cannon was preparing to leave
home the following day for a visit to
friends in Bartow, and Mrs. C. was en
gaged in getting thing3 ready when slie
became suddenly ill.
The deceased was a most estimable
lady and was very popular in her neigh
borhood. Her funeral was largely at
tended by her old friends and neighbors
and the deepest sorrow pervades the
whole section where she formerly Jived.
She was a sister of Mr. Wra. T. Burge,
of Stilesboro.

A CLOSE OiLL.
A Colored Man, in the Bottom of a Well
has an Interesting Experience with a
Bucket of Bricks.
William White is occasionally em
ployed by our citizens in cleaning out
wells. William had an experience one
day last week that he will no doubt re
member for some time to come. He
was in the bottom of Col. Ford’s well
cleaning it out, and had nearly com
pleted the job. In sending up a bucket
of rocks, mud, etc., and when it had
neared the top, it struck against a pro
jecting curbing of brick. The bricks
were pulled from their fastenings and
began to shower down on William pretty
thick. Fortunately for the darkey he
was on his guard and hugged the wall
closely, but succeeded in catching a few
of the missiles on his cranium and back.
He was considerably bruised up but is
able to walk around. He made a narrow
escape, for enough brick fell to have
killed him instantly.

Grassdale Happenings.
I suppose as Grassdale is a reality—no
longer a thing talked over and hoped for
—that we are entitled to a representation
in your much-read columns. Thanks to
the untiring efforts of Col. R. C. Saxon,
he has at last gotten a postoffice estab
lished at his residence, named Grassdale,
after his own beautiful home, with his
daughter, Mamie, as postmistress.
We don’t often have much to haDpen
in this quiet neighborhood worthy of
chronicling, but if it meets with your
approbation I may now and then let you
hear from us. [Would be pleased to hear
from you every week. —Ed.]
The boys want to be known as “Iron
ville boys,” but the beautiful young la
dies want to hail from Grassdale. So,
young gentlemen, make a note of this
and act accordingly.
Mrs. Anna Gibbons and children, of
Rome, have been spending some time

Meetings are in progress all around us.

. a Suspicious Death.
In the upper end of the county a
house has been occupied by some negro
women of questionable character. One
of them, Savannah Barron, died rather
suddenly and under suspicious circum

complained up to the time of her death.
It seems that the woman was found ly
ing in the middle of her room dead the
next morning by the other inmates of
the house. Coroner John Rowland was
notified, and after an investigation of
nearly tw o days the jury returned a ver
dict of death caused by peretonitis.

“A BOWLD SOGER BOY.”
One of the Macon Volunteers and His
Ability as a Drummer.
SAMUEL DUNLAP, OF ATLANTA, GA.
The excellent picture we present at the head
of this column, is of a man who is as well and
favorably known in his capacity as a traveling
man or “drummer” as any one man in the
United States.
Mr. Dunlap said in conversation recently:
“About four years ago I had a severe attack of
rheumatism, which completely disabled me for
a time, and which developed into what is com
monly called ‘chronic,’ attacking me when
least expected, and laying me up entirely; in
capacitating me for any kind of business, and
causing me as much suffering in a day as should
be crowded in a life time. After one of my most
severe attacks, and when I bad just got able to
hobble around, I met J. M. Hunnicutt, an old
friend, and he said he could make a remedy
that would cure me, and, by gracious, he did. I
took two bottles of his stuff, prepared from
roots and herbs, and I have never had a twinge
of rheumatism since. The medicine was not
prepared for sale at that time, hut was manu
factured hv Mr. Hunnicutt for his friends.
About six months ago it was determined to
place it upon the market, and a firm wAs organ
ized for that purpose. Two weeks ago, in the
midst of my suffering, I noted in one of their
advertisements that it was good for kidney
troubles also. I knew it would cure rheuma
tism, and I bought a half a dozen bottles at once
and determined to give it a fair show at a kidney
disease of long standing. It may seem extrava
gant, but the first day’s use gave me relief, and
before I had completed taking one bottle my
disagreeable symptons had entirely disap
peared. I have used two bottles up to this
time, and I have not felt a trace of my disease
for a week.”
J. M. Hunnicutt & Go., the manufacturers of
Hunnicutt’s Rheumatic Cuie, Atlanta, Ga., as
sure us that their medicine is on sale at the low
price of SI.OO a bottle, at all reputable druggists
aud can he procured at wholesale from jobbing
druggists everywhere.
10c. Store.
I would beg leave to inform the people of Bar
tow county and surrounding country to the faot
that I have just opened a TEN GENT STORE
next door to Turner & Baker, jewelers, in Bank
Block, where I hope to see the people of this
section.
In my stock will be found many useful house
hold articles that can be bought at the low price
of ten cents. I certainly offer unprecedented
bargains in needful artioles. No article in the
house over ten cents.
In my stock will be found one-half gallon
coffee pots, one-gallon milk pails, eight-inch
wash basins, eight-quart dairy pans, gents’ all
linen 4-ply collars, all-linen towels 16x32, ladies’
balbriggan hose, ladies’ all-linen cape collars,
linen Torchon edging, oriental lace, splashers
16x32, and innumerable other articles, all of
which are indispensable with housekeepers.
Any of the above named articles I will sell
for the astonishing low figuro of 10c. If you
want to get the largest amount of goods for the
smallest amount of money the “Ten Cent Store”
is the place.
Come one and all -and secure sledge-hammer
bargains-while you have the chance.
All I ask is a trial to convince you of the fact
that I sellcheapej* than the cheapest. All are
invited to call and make an early and repeated
examination of my stock. New goods received
every day.
