Candidates Discuss Matters.
The Troup county candidates
for the legislature spoke to the
people last Wednesday' night at
Lloyd’s school house, six miles
east of LaGrange. A good many
went from LaGrange to hear the
speaking, which was unusually
interesting. This last week of
the race is full of excitement, and
the editor of The Graphic is
grieving, for the first time, that
a few little trifles are in the way
of her voting. If we could, we’d
vote early and often and leave no
stone unturned until the two best
candidates are safely in. Os
course, everybody knows who
the two best are. But if there
should still be some uninformed
people, The Graphic invites
them to call at the office of the
paper and be duly enlightened.
We know as many as several
things, even though we can’t
vote.
Our New Cotton Mill.
LaGrange’s new Unity Cotton
Mills Wil be models in every
sense of the word. It has taken
two hundred thousand dollars 10
get this enterprise, but LaGrange
j had to have it and she put both
hands down into her pockets and
fished up the money without any
trouble at all. This mill wil_ t
have 10,000 spindles, the latest
improved machinery, an< | wi ||
*uru out osnaburgs, army duck
and cloths. The Unity
Mills have d uC? utiful „ location
on a plot of land west 01 sol ‘
diers’ cemetery and adjoining In j
There are 96| acres of land in I
the plot, and abundance of run
ning water. Forty acres of the |
land will be used as a cow pas
ture, where the cows of the oper
atives may be kept free of charge.
The homes of the operatives
will be model dwellings, with a
garden and a front yard to each,

fence. The mills management
says it will aim to provide its
workers with really comfortable,
pretty homes, where a happier
spirit will be fostered and en
couraged. Under such broad I
and humanitarian direction, the
new factory town can but thrive
and be happy. Work begins the

A Na Standing in
Front of Our Store—
The other day, seeing-the sign
on tie Sewing Machinep.“Regu
ularr price $30.00; Special Cut,
S2OMM),’ remarked that - if we
could now afford to. sell the
machine for $20.00, that it waa
outrageous to have formerly
naked $30.00 for its. This was
o«r reply: that when Iwe kept a
wagon and agent, $30.00 was
as cheap as it canid be sold.
I
IWe had to invest) money in a
horse and wagon and the salary
of an agent is usually about
$40.00. Six Machines per
month is the average sales and
sometimes less, and most oftem
on long terms to unreliable pari
ties. That’s the old way.
This is our new way. We
have done away with horse,
wagon and man; also the long
credits. We sell from the store
for the CASH. Its true that
when we sell this New Ideal
Machine, guaranteed for five
years, for $20.00, the profit is
so small we can hardly see it,
’ but then we do our machine
1 business on a cash basis and can
; afford to accept small profit.
Remember, too, that we sell
I a ball-bearing drop-head ma
-6 chine fors3o.(X). This machine
is the Climax, made by the
New Home Co., and guaranteed
1 for five years.
