DAWSON GOT TWO PLACES.
B
Secretary and Executive Committee
man of Musical Association.
=4 The Chattahoochee Musical Asso
ciation, famous throughout this sec
tion as singers of old-time and soul
stiring songs, closed their annual ses
sion in Richland on Friday. The as
sociation was in session three days,
and was hospitably entertained by
\the people of that town, who greatly
enjoyed the melody of the assembled
musicians.
\ In the election of officers of the
‘association Terrell county was hon
ored with two important positions,
Mr. W. W. Rudd ot Dawson was
elected secretary and treasurer, and
Mr. C. A. Lanier a member of the
executive committee, My 81
Martin of Shellman, succeeding Mr.
W. T. Z. Bridges ot Cuthbert, was
elected president, and D. C. Sauls
of Tifton vice-president, succeeding
Mr. A. J. Foreman of Sasser.
The time and place of the next
annual meeting of the association
will be fixed by the executive com
mittee. Why not invite these sing
ers of old-time and soul-stirring
songs to meet in Dawson. They
would do all who heard them good.
We have had many compliments
on our new line of hair brushes and
combs. Call and see them. Ken

MRS. L. L. TILLEY DEAD.

The deceased was 66 years of age,

May her sleep be peaceful is the wish
of many who knew and loved her.
PAYING TAXES SLOWLY.
Collector McLendon Says Tax Money
Is Way Off.
Tax Collector McLendon began
his rounds Monday, and will be thus
engaged for the next several weeks.
Mr. McLendon tells The News that
tax collections were never slower
than they are this year. His re
ceipts are fully two-thirds less than
they were at this date a year ago.
' Two Old Cronies Coming..
This will complete a series of three
entertainments under the manage
ment of John B. Wills. The trip to
Atlantic City gave satisfaction, Sweet
Sixteen was still better, and was con
sidered the cleanest, brightest and
best company that has been here for
some time, and now comes the Two
old Cronies with John B. Wills as
personal manager, and one of the
original Two Old Cronies. Press no
tices received from Macon, Savan
nah and other towns in Georgia indi
cate that this will be the banner per
formance under Mr. Wills’ manage
ment. Two Old Cronies is a guar
anteed attraction, and if you are not
pleased your mopey will be paid
back. If yvou can’t laugh don’t g 0
to the opera house tonight.
To the People of Dawson.
I wish to thank the good people
of Dawson for their kindness to my
husband during his sickness and to
me and my little children after my
husband's death. 1 assure them of
my gratitude, and I truly hope that
in some way in the future I may be
able to repay them. I know the good
Lord approves of their kindness.
With God’s blessings and my best
wishes, MRS. W. R. SHY.

Advice to Housewives.
No home is so pleasant, regardless
of the comforts that money will buy,
as when the entire family is in per
fect health. A bottle of Orino Laxa
tive Fruit Syrup costs 50 cents. It
will cure every member of the fam
ily of constipation, sick headache or
stomach trouble. Kendrick's Drug
store, Dawson; H. A. Wall, Bron
wood.
Mr. Oxford Is Improving.
Mr. J. T. Oxford, one of Terrell's
well-known and highly esteemed
farmers, is now -improving after a
eritical illness of gseveral weeks. His
numerous friends hope it will not
be long pefore he will be able to be
out again.
In the Saw Mill Business.
Mr. F. P. Allen, for many years a
well-known jeweler of Dawson, was
in the city Thursday. He is néw a
resident of Fort Gaines, and is en
gaged in the saw mill business.

Announces the Arrival of an Expert Watch-Maker and Optician.
Is Better Prepared to Serve the People Than Ever Before.
We desire to express our apprecia
tion to those who have been so pa
tient in awaiting their turns for
work in our repair department. We
have literally been snowed under
with work, and have had to disap
point a great many when calling for
articles left to be repaired.
We are glad to announce the ar
rival of Mr. C. C. Carden, an expert
watch maker and graduate optician,
who will be an addition to our force,
and make it possible to have all of
vour repair work attended to by an
expert.
Our optical department will be
one of our main features in the fu
ture, allowing more time to be de
voted to this branch of our business.
You will find it entirely unneces
sary to pay the expenses of a trip
to Columbus, Macon or Atlanta in
order to have your eyes properly at
tended to.
Don’t throw your money away by
paying it to peddlers traveling under
the disguise of optical specialists
and selling brass for gold frames.

ANOTHER ATTACK ON THE LAW,
The Act Under Which It Is Proposed
to Have Dispensary Election.
Anything that bears upon the re
cent act of the legislature permitting
‘elections to be held in dispensary
counties is of interest just now tb
readers of The News, as it is pro
posed to have an election under it
in Terrell county. |
The News noted recently that an
attack had been made on the law hy
the dispensaryites of Early county,‘
and an appeal taken to the supreme
court on an adverse decision rendered
by Judge Sheffield. Now, the constitu
tionality of the law has been at
tacked in Pike county, and an ap
peal taken to the supreme court. A
petition asking for an election in
Pike was presented to the ordinary
of that county, and the advocates
of the dispensary at Barnesville
are seeking to have the ordinary en
joined from calling it.
Hon. Joe Hall of Macon repre
sents the dispensary people, and will
make a strong fight on the law.

FOUR MORE ELECTIONS.
The Able Voter Will Make Several
More Trips to the Polls.
The year 1906 has been a year of
elections, and the patriotic citizen
has become surfeited with *‘‘saving
the country.” But for the able voter
of Dawson and Terrell county there
is yet no relief in sight. He will
have to make three more trips, may
be four, to the polls before the yearf
closes and the end comes to poli-i
tics.
There is the congressional elec
tion, which will occur the first Tues
day in November; the question of
local taxation for public schools will
be decided at the polls on November
6, and the regular city election will
occur on the second Wednesday in
December. In addition to these the
dispensary question will likely have
to be settled with the ballots. ‘
TREASURER W. A. BALDWIN.
Popular City Official Renominated
Without Opposition.
In an account of the recent city
primary elsewhere in The News we
failed to mention that Mr. W. A.
Baldwin was renominated for city
treasurer without opposition. He
received 356 votes out of a total
of 383
Mr. Baldwin has held this position
for several years, and the fact that
it is again given to him without a
contest shows his efficiency and pop
ularity as an official.
The Denver Express.
The patrons of the opera house
who saw the Denver Express last sea
son admit that it was the best show
given here. It was one of the most
successful plays financially last sea
son, and the manager informs me
that the company this season is play
ing to packed houses and giving the
best of satisfaction. Everything new
—costumes, scenery and mechanical
effects. It is a show no one should
miss. If you are not satisfied after
the first act come to the box office
and get your money back. In Daw
