business here.
It is a sad tiling when you go to kiss a
girl to have her sneeze at the very mo
ment of osculation.
There are yet some people in Carters
ville who can talk about nothing else but
the late election.
The Great London Circus will soon he
in Georgia. Hope it will not give Car
tersville the go-by.
We think all who have won big money
on the election ought to divide a little
with the newspapers.
The pavement in front of the Bartow
House is undergoing a smoothing down
from Bud Eaves’ trowel.
We’ve got a little edition of Fatty Har
ris up here. He pulls the throttle of the
“Senator” and weighs a ton.
BUI Arp’s last Sunday letter was the
best one ot' the series. It contained no
politics and was funnier than a circus.
Peter Schikan was in town Tuesday.
He is worth a million dollars to P. & G.
T. Dodd & Cos., the house he represents.
If last week’s weather was not suffi
cient to move the heart of the “cord
wood” subscriber we don’t know what
Can.
t . We forgot to say that Bud Satterfield,
of Rome, was in town last week. He is
getting very fat, and is pushing us a close
race on that line.
Judge R. B. Trippe and lady have gone
to house-keeping. They occupy the
Wallace residence on Tumlin street.
That’s business.
The average Felton better has been
so successful that we suggest he take
Prof. Tice’s place or go to making al
manacs at once,
Misses Dowtlle, of Tuskegee, Ala., are
visiting Miss Emma Jones, in Carters
ville. Several of our most dashing beaux
are on their mettle.
Many mothers raise their daughters on
the principle of teaching them first, to
play the piano, second to dress, third to
dance, and sew forth.
Every once and a while Free Stephens

It is generally on Sundays, hut,what it

son is the best auctioneer they ever saw,
and nobody disputed it.
('artersuille boys who own white kids
and spike-tail coats have to go elsewhere
to wear them. We haven’t had a “kick
up” here in a long while.
The “Murphys” are making many
gallant efforts in the cause of temperance
in Cartersville. They had a rally at the
court house, Monday night.
Our announcement column shows a
pretty meagre array of candidates. An
nounce yourself for some office. Your
country needs your services,,
Joe Sellers is the politest man who
ever run a liquor establishment. He
wants all his friends to call on him when
wanting anything in his line.
Some ot the* late organized say that
when you buy a negro’s vote you have
to raise his wages every morning, and
watch him dreadful close at that.
Old Bartow appreciates her honored
William 11. Felton. For ttie last week it
has kept two clerks at Wikle’s busy sell
ing copies of his Atlanta speech.
Moon’s shoe store is a fine acquisition
to the mercantile interest ot our town.
In this establishment you can find any
thing you want in the shoe line.
J i !’ somebody don’t come along and buy
a splendid sewing machine we have for
sale somebody will loose a bargain. W e
can’t dwell, as Bill Anderson would say.
“No tonic like this bracing air,” says
a correspondent from the mountains.
Yes, and you get it for nothing, which
isn’t the case with Anderson’s cock
tails.
The 11. I. Kimball House.
This grand and elegant hotel is now
under the management of Messrs. Seo
ville, Seldon Sc Cos., of Virginia, who
have bean very successful in the hotel
business. The Kimball is more popular
than it ever was. The tables are sup
plied with the most elegant and sumptu
ous living. Everything about the house
is elegant and there is nothing left un
done to make the guest comfortable and
at home. The office gentlemen are all
]>olite and very obliging. There we find
Messrs. Wiley, Calloway and Hammond,
the most popular men with the traveling
public in this section of the country. Al
together, the Kimball is the best appoint
ed Hotel in the South and its management
in every department is equal to its ap
pointments.
The Flay; we Fight Under.
We have nailed to the wall of our sanc
tum the beautiful banner presented to us
by the ladies and displayed at the Felton
barbecue, and under its blazing golden
letters we work with a vim. The e
scription reads: The Free Press—An
IX DEPEN DENT DeM OCRATIC JOURNAL—
The People’s Choice. The letters
were artistically made by our young
friend Jim Mounteastle. We again
thank those noble hearted women for
their soul-stirring banner.
A Busy Man.
“Coob” Cobb” is a team. His father
went on a visit to Texas and left him to
attend to the Cherokee railroad office.
Sanford Vandivere went to Hot Springs
and left him to do the conducting on the
Cherokee railroad. So now that boy is
agent, conductor, brakesman and train
hand of the road and the Lord only
knows how soon he will throw Superin
tendent Postell out of a job. He is busi
ness all over.
Fell Under His Horse.
On yesterday as Mr. Tom Baxter was
coming down Main street at a pretty
lively rate on his trotting mare, and as
she turned a corner she slipped and fell,
throwing Mr. Baxter under her. He
sustained the injury of a fractured leg
and a slight wound on his forehead which
will doubtless keep him confined to his
room for several days.
Retrospective.
We glanoe adown the dim vista
of the past, we recall to the mind’s
eye many events, we note the in
roads Time has made upon things perish
able, but we can find nothing to forcejthe
keen cry of anguish from our soul, like
the cruel ending of a campaign that has
thrown “Cato” and “Citizen” without
employment.
Prize Nledals.
Glenn Jones has shown us his beauti
ful silver medal taken at the Atlanta fair
for the best set of harness. It is beauti
ful in design and finish, and the hoy
ought to punch a hole in one corner and
wear it around his neck. His father also
has a similar medal taken at the Macon
lair for best buggy. Hurrah for our
Joneses!
Enterprise.
I)r. Memmler’s bloomary will soon be
in operation. Mr. Zoppi is working
faithfully and rapidly. Two German
families have been brought here to go to
work. We look upon Dr. Memmler as
the man who ought to be Commissioner
of Foreign Immigration. He will he
worth a great deal to this country, sure.
In a New Business.
And now Tim Haney has become a
knight of the yard-stick at Moon’s dry
goods store, and it is hard to tell whether
the"girls who flock to that emporium go
there to buy goods or to see Tim. If
anybody were to say that Tim is not
handsome we should immediately call
him an “unmitigated.”
A Good Officer.
Capt. Postell, of the Cherokee road,
is back at his post looking after the inter
ests of the road. During his administra
tion no road in the State has been better
managed. If it had been in any other
hands than his when the bridge fell in,
that would have been the last of the
Cherokee railroad.
For Hot Springs.
On Friday last Mr. Fletcher Northeutt
the worthy engineer of the Cherokee
road,, accompanied by Mr. Sanford Van
vere left for Hot Springs, Ark. Mr.
Northeutt is suffering from that excru
ciating torture, rheumatism. He has
many friends here who heartily wish his
recovery.
Personal.
Mr. J. T. Waterman, of the LaGrange
was in Cartersville Tuesday■
I lie office of the Reporter office waFrtie^
stroyed by fire recently and Mr. Water
man received the most heartfelt sympa
thy of the whole Georgia press. He is
one of the very best journalists in the
State.
To Mrs. R. A. Felton.
The Eagle Sc Phenix cotton mills, of
Columbus, Ga., have sent to Mrs. Felton
itwo dress patterns of their own manu
facture, one of them, after it is made up,
to he worn on flic day Dr. Felton takes
his seat as a member of the forty-sixth
Congress. The patterns are very hand
some.

Married.
On the evening of the 14th inst., at
the residence of Mr. John Marable, by
Judge J. W. Williams, Mr. John Y.
Chapman and Miss Lula McGuire, all of
Paulding county. We acknowledge the
usual fee amUrust that life may be full
of pleasure and roses to the happy cou
ple.
New Residence.
The new residence of our enterprising
townsman, Mr. W. 11. Gilbert, rapidly
approaches completion. It is on a com
manding site and will be a great improve
ment to the looks of the part of town in
which it ts located.
The Elections.
The municipal and county elections
will be lively. On with the terpsichorean
evolutions.
The Wallacks.
We have just time to announce that
the Wal lack Tripologue Troupe will
again occupy our opera house which they
opened with so much eclat last Winter.
They are now under the management of
Harry Robinson, the celebrated minstrel
man. They give the same unique enter
tainments as when here before with new
wardrobes, costumes, etc. We feel safe
in saying that Cartersville will lioner her
favorites with bumper houses on both
nights of their engagement. The admis
sion is fifty cents. Wednesday and
Thursday nights.
An Opportunity for Genius.
We are glad to learn that anew cor
dial has just been patented, the use of
which will enable a man to live without
eating. All we want now is a liver pill
that will make one suit of clothes last us
twenty-five years. Cartersville mer
chants have quit advertising.
Let us Hear from Gordon.
The Atlanta Constitution says: “The
young men of Cartersville will organize
a debating club to-niglit. The first sub
ject should he, “how many illegal votes
did Felton get?” That question cannot
be decided until we can hear from the
Ordinary of Gordon county.
A Lively Drummer.
Mr. Sanders P. Jones, traveller for the
liquor house of Paul Jones, Atlanta, was
in the city Monday, presenting the
claims of this excellent house to the pub
lic here. Young Sanders is a thorough
business man, and is calculated to suc
ceed always.
Button, Button, who’s got the Button?
They liad been to church Sunday night
and she was complaining of sore throat.
He felt in his vest pocket and gave her a
bronchial troche. Little nigger comes
around next morning with Miss Clara’s
regrets that she “chawed it so much.”
A Good Landlord.
Mr. J. H. Martin, the genial hotel
man of Adairsville, was in town Mon
day. This gives an opportunity to say
that a traveller can find more solid com
forts at his establishment than any other
similar establishment in the country.
That Boy.
Whenever Dan Rowe, the boss Atlanta
drummer, comes to Cartersville he doesn’t
have to carry his grip-sack all around
town. Ilis customers fairly flock to him.
Dan is a fellow whose popularity we ap
preciate as much as he does.
Congrat illations.
It was a nine pound boy that came to
the home of Mr. A. M. Foute on Sunday
last. We are gMI to knew that mother
and son are doing well and that A. M. F.
is exceedingly happy over the great event
of His life.
Returned,
Gen. P. M. B. Young reached home
from Europe Monday. He looks hale
and hearty and as if lie had a fine time
across the waters. Bartow county is
prouder of none of her sons than Gen.
Young. As soon as he gets a little rest
and quiet we will interview him.
New Turn Outs.
Cartersville is a “swell” town. The
recent advent of the Cincinnati cheap
buggy man has put it within the power
of nearly everybody to buy anew buggy.
It is no longer an indication of opulence
to ~-ear a top buggy.
Shoot the Hat.
All persons who didn’t win hats on
the election now have an opportunity to
have their old ones rejuvinated. Mr.
Blanchard, a competent and honest hat
ter, is in town for a few days longer, lie
is at the St. James.
For Mayor.
Among our announcements it will be
seen that the friends of Rev. John An
derson and Dr. F. M. Johnson have an
nounced them as candidates for Mayor.
Either one would make a good officer.
A New Lecture.
Tis whispered about town that Bill
Arp sorter claims kin with “our George.”
We look with anticipation to Bill's next
lecture which should be entitled “A Cou
sin in a dickens of a fix.”
+ +
Down Sick.
Mr. Albert Gilbert is confined to his
room with a serious case of rheumatics.
In the meanwhile our affable young
friend Hugh Young supplies his place
at the store of W. 11. Gilbert & Son.
A New Contributor.
The Atlanta Gazette announces as one
of its contributors Miss Estelle Leyden,
of Atlanta. This young lady has many
friends in this community who will pe
ruse her productions with pleasure.
'JTTIOIjI lltlttc*
Any man who reads the political thun
der on our first page this week can learn
to whistle the “Star Spangle Banner”
in forty minutes. Hurrah for “Honest
Bob” and “Our Ben.”
Tonsorial.
Eli Clayton, a well-known barber,
will leave for Selma, Alabama. John
Taylor bought out his shop and is now
running a mammoth establishment o\ ei

Our Despa r.
Even the society editor of the Constitu
tion has gone back on The Free Press.
A society item copied from our paper ap
peared credited to the Express. How
can we survive? _
That Tamborine Man.
Mr. Lou Morrill has just completed a
beautifully lettered sign for Jones’ car
riage factory. What that boy can’t do
with a pot of paint and a brush is not
worth doing.
j In Town.
Judge Land was in the city the other
day. He is complaining of a sore foot
and general debility, but we have no
doubt he will push a tough race for Tax
Collector.
Abroad in the Land,
Jim Harrison and Bud Eaves say the
! “elephant keeper” is in town, and that
he can hit harder than a threshing ma
' chine.
A Novel 1 auture
Presents itself to hose who use Dr.
Parker’s Hair Balsai , in the discovery
of its rare and remarl ible merits. Many
have written us expr -sing their delight

majority of the votes polled, but by the ruling
authorities that then were—Gov. Bullock —I was
refused a commission, and the commission was
given to another, hence my victory was a barren
