June 21, 1911,
The new railroad proposition is
about in shape to present to the
people of Gainesville. What will
our citizens do with this project?
It is up to them to get it.
The wheat crop in this section
of Georgia was better than it has
been for years. The farmers have
had a bountiful yield and there
will be no bread shortage in this
section.
Gainesville is shortly to have
hotel facilities second to none in
the state. This town will wake
up sooner or later. It moves
slowly sometimes, but gets there
after all.
Proper entertainment of the
Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows by
Gainesville next year will be worth
a great dpal to the city. Of course,
Gainesville will do her duty in
this matter.
Gainesville’s new Chamber of
Commerce must not-be allowed to
languish. It means too much for
the future interests of this city and
section. Attend the next meeting
shortly to be held.
Mayor Mitchell proposes to im
prove Main street right away and
make it a street not to be ashamed
of. That’s good. Work has
been delayed on this important
Street long enough.
Gainesville entertained the
North Georgia Epworth Leaguers
royally. This town never does
things in a half-hearted manner.
The visitors were charmed with
the city and its people.
King George will be crowned
tomorrow, and millions will wit
ness the coronation festivities.
They are all kings and queens
over here and it dont cost any
thing to see them.
A small manufacturing enter
prise is on foot for Gainesville,
The necessary capital is about
subscribed. This is good. We
want more manufacturing
enterprises for Gainesville.
Governor Brown will retire
from the office of Governor with
the good will of -practically all
Georgians of both factions. He
has made an enviable record as
Chief Executive of this state. He
has upheld the dignity of the law
and has painstakingly adhered
to its enforcement.
There are now $13,000,000
worth of automobiles in Georgia.
This is some money to be
tied up in the “buzz wagons.”
Gainesville is going a little strong
er on autos now than ever before.
After the convening of the
Georgia legislature, the next big
thing on the program for the state
is the meeting of the weekly
newspaper editors at Cartersville,
Wednesday and Thursday, July
12th. and 13th. Cartersville is
already at work making prepara
tions for the “moulders of public
opinion."
\
Will Governor Hoke Smith go
to the United States Senate? He
will if the Georgia legislature
will elect him.
Georgia legislature meets one
week from today. John Holder
will likely be unanimously elected
Speaker of the House, and John
M. Slaton President of the Senate.
Who will be elected United States
Senator?
Work on Gainesville’s new wat
er plant is progressing in a very
satisfactory manner. When the
new plant is completed there will
be an abundance of water for the
city. It will not be secured a
moment too soon.
The campaign for good roads
goes on unabated throughout
Georgia. Hall county must not
lag behind ip this good work. Our
County Commissioners are making
some improvements, which are
greatly appreciated by the citizens.
Tom Watson has rented rooms
at the Kimball in. Atlanta and in
vites “Old Man Peepul” to visit
him there just before the legisla
ture convenes. Is Tom to fight
Hoke’s Senatorial aspirations, or
is he to protest against Hoke’s
assumption of the oath of
Georgia’s chief executive?
Mark this prediction: Champ
Clark is going to figure largely
in the list of Democratic Presiden
tial possibilities in 1912. His
course as Speaker of the House
makes him loom large on the
Democratic horizon.
NOBODY SPARED.

Women worry, can’t do daily
work.
Men have lame and aching
backs.

child,
Is to cure the cause—the kid

kidneys—
Have brought relief to Gaines
ville people.

Gainesville, Ga., says: “I still think
highly of Doan’s Kidney Pills and
confirm what I said about them
in my public statement given in
1908. You may continue to use
my endorsement. Doan’s Kidney
Pills were Kken by one of my
relatives who complained of kid
ney trouble and they brought
great relief. , I kriow that this
remedy does its work well.”

By taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound
The following letter from Mrs.
Orville Rock will prove how unwise
it is for women to submit to the
dangers of a surgical operation when
it may be avoided bv taking Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
She wfts four weeks in the hospital
nml came home suffering worse
than before. ,
Here is her own statement.
Paw Paw, Mich.—“.Two years ago
I suffered very severely with a dis
placement. I could
not be on my feet for
a lon£ time. My
physician treated
me for seven months
without much relief
and at last sent me
to Ann Arbor for
an operation. I was
there four weeks and
came home suffering
worse than before.
My mother advised
me to try Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound,
and 1 did. Today I am well and strong
and do all my own housework. I owe
my health to Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound and advise my
friends who are afflicted with any
female complaint to try it.”—Mrs.

Compound.
For thirty years it has been the stan
dard remedy for women’s ills, and lias
positively restored the health of thou
sands of women. Why don’t you try it?
