Democratic prospects ol suc
cess in coming elections grow
brighter and brighter each passi
ing day.
Cotton is once more king on
our streets, and it is bringing
good prices, for Carrollton is a
first class market.
We extend a cordial invitation
to our friends to come in to see
us when they bring their cotton
to market, and don’t lorget the
$ (or the paper.
The South is steadily forging
to the front along the line of
manufacturing industries and in
a few years, will lead all other
sections of our country. Mr
Greelj used to say, “Go West
young man,” if he were living
today, he would say, “Go
South young man,’’ for southi
ward “the star of empire now
takes its way.” Tho South is
today, the land of large oppor.
tunities, and southern boys
should prepare to seize these
opportunities rather than leave
them to others. Remember,
young men and boys, he who
gives time and eflort to the ac
quirement of a liberal education, 1Ql
and fit training for the various
special lines of industry, is the
one who is best prepared for
lifes work and will most surely
be crowned with success, and
be enabled to live a useful life.
By all means stick to work in
the school, acquire an educa
tion, take time to fitly prepare
yoursell (or usefullness, success
and happiness. We look to our
young men and women, to keep
in the forefront in the develop,
ment of the South, It will be
a shame for it to be otherwise.

During this week and last,
Carrollton has been lavored with
a series of fine sermons by Rev.
Ci C. Jarrell and Dr. T. B. Rob'
ins at the M. E. Church. Great

The expenses of some of the
candidates in the late State pri

evidence that any money was
used otherwise than in a legiti
mate manner. We are glad to
be able to say this.

whistle of the locomotive engine
will delight the ears of the good
people of Bowdon, and we con
gratulate them on their pluck

In the municipal election last
Saturday, all the candidates for
office were citizens good and
true, and hence the nominees
will make us efficient officers
during the coming year. Let us
unite heartily to support the
maj or and council in efforts for
the welfare and progress of our
city. Four of our very best cits
izens were candidates for mem.
bership on the school hoard, but
only two could be nominated.
We believe they will be true to
the trust committed to them, as
doubtless the unsuccessful ones
would have also been faithlul
had they been nominated.

THE LASH OF A FRIEND
Would have been about as wel
come to A. Cooper of Oswego N.
Y. as a merciless lung racking
cough that defied all remedies for
gears. “It was most troublesome
at night” he writes, nothing helping
me till 1 used Dr, Kings New Dis
covery which cured me completely.
I never cough at night now. Mil
lions know its matchless merit for
stubborn cold obstinate coughs, sore
lungs, lagrippe asthma croup, hay-
fever 5 or whooping cough. It re
lieves quickly and never fails to
satisfy. A trial convinces, 50c, $1
Trial Jbottle free. It’s positively
guaranteed by Fitts Drug Store or

Don’t forget that next Satur.
day is “Orphans Work Day,”
and remember that “pure and
undefiled religion is to visit the
fatherless and widows in their
afflictions.” No institutions
throughout the country are do-
ing a grander work than the
orphanages. The little Jfather
less, motherless, destitute ones
should surely be given a chance
in life. They should be the
wards of us all. God entrusts
them to our care. On Orphans
Work Day, each individual is
asked to give the proceeds of
his or her income tor that day,
to the orphans. Ought we not
all do so?.
“Can be depended upon” is an
expression we all like to hear, and
when it is used in connection with
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera, and
Diarrhoea Remedy it neans that it
never fails to cure diarrhoea, dysen
tery or bowel complaints. It is
pleasant to take and equally valu
able for children and adults. Sold
