Bond or no bonds, fence or no fence,
is the talk of every man, woman and
child of the Sixth district. At present
the “No’s” seem to have it by a large
majority. We are all in favor of anew
courthouse, and are willing to bear our
part of the burden if the lower part of the
county will treat fair with us and help
us build it near tlie center of the county,
any about old Cassvilie, but never will
we consent to build it at Cartersville at a
cost of $30,000 and pay $33,500 interest
on that amount. We hope that the good
citizens of the grand old Banner county
of the Empire State of the South will
not be so ignorant as to vote any such a
burden as to the fence question in the
Sixth district. The old Sixth can take
care of itself.

And That It Will Take All of Their

Means to Be Resorted To.
Ignorance or prejudice.
Which is it?
Yesterday J. S. Rhodes of the
Sixth district was in town and in
conversation with some of his Alli
ance brethern he said that it was
the intention of his sub-Alliance
not to allow its members to go and !
hear Dr. Felton speak. Or if the ;
Doctor and Everett did meet in joint
discussion the members would go
and hear Everett speak but would
leave in a body when Felton arose i
to speak.
A rumorhas also reached the ears
of a Ledger reporter that a reso
lution was introduced in the above
Alliance to prohibit the members
from attending any of Dr. Felton’s
meetings out cooler heads persuad
ed the members not to adopt it.
It is nevertheless true that the
bosses are uneasy and will resort to
an}' means at their hands to hold
the members in line. This much is
learned from the every day conver
sation of Alliancemen.
It is also noticed that the lo<-al
bosses are urging the members to
stick telling first one yarn and an
other which they can not substan
tiate.
