IMPORTANT ELECTION.
We are sure that the conserv
ative, democratic voters of Pike
county "ill today vote almost
solidly for Mr. E - M. Owen for
representative in the next legisla
ture. JI.• is a young man of a
high order of ability, fully quali-
fied for sustaining himself in the
law-making body of the state.
Mr. Owen has the unqualified en
dorsement and support of the
people of his own community,
among the most upright, in tel i
geut, interprisrng of Georgia. It
is absolutely neccesary to have a
representative in the legislature
who is conservative, and who will
view questions without prejudice
and with good will toward all his
constituents. Such a man is Mr.
Owen and we do not see how a
a conservative democratic citizen
can vote otherwise than for him
in the present campaign. It is
an oppotunity which the people
of the county have to put forward
in line for future promotion one
of their fellow citizens, who can
in turn honor them and his native
county.
It is very important that your
ballot be cast for E. M. Owen for
representative.
CONSIDER WELL BEFORE
VOTING.
“Vote only for good men; vote
for men whose lives you can en
dorse.” —Adnirsville Banner.
The right and privilege of the
ballot is not fully appreciated by
many citizens. Too often we are
controlled by personal considera
tions when we go to select men
for offices, and we do not stop to
think of what a serious duty we
have to perform when we go to
vote.
Of course wo should cast our
ballots for men who agree with
our views on public issues, but
this is not enough. A ballot cast
for a candidate is not only an
endorsement of his position
on given questions but it is also
an -endorsement of his standing
among his own constituents and
also of his private life. At least
this is true, where tin* people
properly weigh matters of this
kind. Such an endorsement says
that the man elected is a good
citizen, is active in the upbuild
ing of his sect ion, is in harmony
with the people among whom he
lives. Such an endorsement of a
man sent to our state and national
law-making bodies makes him our
representative. It means that we
believe that ho would act for our
selves —in other words that lie is
like us in his views, on public
questions, in his conduct as a
citizen and in his deportment in
private life. It is a serious mat
ter to cast a ballot and thus en
dorse men and measures, Imt the
above is t he conception we should
have and by which we should he
governed, in deciding for whom to
‘vote in all contests for municipal,
county, state and national offices.
It is a cause of congratulation
that there are so many good men
for whom to vote in the present
race for state and county offices,
but there are some who are not
deserving \of the endorsement
which a bam>t cast in their favor
would carry Vith it.
Think on things and then
vote! \

READ IT IN HIS NEWSPAPER.
George Schaub, a well known
German citizen of New Lebanon,
Ohio, is a constant reader of the
Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows
that this paper aims to advertise
only the best in its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate buying a
bottle of it for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains in her back
and could get no relief. He says:
“After using the Pain Balm for a
few day3 my w ife said to me, *1
feel as though born anew,’ and
before using the entire contents of
the bottle the unbearable pains
had entirely vanished and she
could again take up her household
duties.” He is very thankful aud
hopes that all suffering likewise
will hear of her wonderful recovery

The Sunday Journal.
The Atlanta Sunday Journal
made its first appearance Sunday
last. It was greeted with a great
deal of enthusiasm here.
Asa Sunday paper the Journal
excells anything of its nature ever
seen in Barnesville, containing 56
pages, divided into four sections
and a colored supplement.
On account of some mistake of
the railroad officials only one
section of it was received Sunday
morning, the others coining Mon
day, which .caused considerable
disappointment.
The Sunday Journal, as the
daily, will no doubt take the
lead in Barnesville.
Mr. Harvey Green, of Dallas
Ga., who came to take charge of
Mr. G. W. Grjge’s Photograph
Gallery, made a -business trip to

GLUTTONY
Is more common than we may think, if
we define gluttony as eating beyond the
body’s need of sustenance and t>eyond
the stomach’s capacity for digestion and
assimilation of food. That is a fair
definition, and it fastens the name glut
ton on many a person who would resent
the term as an insult. The fact of this
gluttony is marked by its consequences.
The overloaded stomach becomes dis
eased. The popular term for the condi
tion is "weak” stomach. The "weak”
stomaeh fails in furnishing adequate nu
trition for the lxxiy, and soon the " weak
ness ” spreads from the stomach to other
organs.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and
enables the perfect assimilation of food,
bv which alone the health and strength
ol the body is maintained.
"Your medicine helped me so much that I
cannot praise tt too highly." writes Mrs. C I.
Brooks, of Poland. Androscoggin Cos.. Me. "The
first dose l took helped me I cannot forget
how 1 felt when 1 took it; 1 was suffering every
thing with indigestion, and my stomach was so
bloated that it seemed as though it must burst.
Mv husband said he was goiug for the doctor,
but I aid if he would get me a bottle of the
‘Golden Medical Diaccvery‘ I would try that.
I had not taken it long when I felt relieved, and
have not had a touch of indigestion or stomach
trouble since I had been atek for four year*,
and leaa than four bottles cured me Some
people that knew me before I began to.take the
'Golden Medical Discovery' tell me that they
never saw auch a change in any one. and they
ad so sav they don't see how l can do such large
washings as 1 do now. when X had not dona*
waahiug for so long "

The
New
Shirt!
If you are interested in Shirts,
particularly the negligee shirt,
twouldn’t be a bad scheme to
take a look at the bunch of noble
looking specimens we have just
opened, White or Fancy. They
are made expressly for us and are
thoroughly custom made.
With some people a shirt is a
shirt; then there is a kind of
people that know that a shirt that
is well made, good material, cor
rect fitting, will be the economi
cal shirt. We have the shirt for
these thoughtful fellows. You
don’t think of wearing a suit that
doesn’t fit? Are you any more
careless about your shirt? Put on
one to see how the high band
collar swings around your neck.
Want one for Com
mencement at $1 ?
No need for you not wearing a
different TIE everyday with the
variety we have bought for you in
stock—four-in-hands, derbys, and
Manhattan for the high band col
lars 50 cts.
