"As Mr. Bell Rose From His Bed At The Mid¬
night Hour To Help Me, So Would He Do
The Same To Defend The Rights Of The
People At Large.”
Thomas M, Bell asks for renom¬
ination at the primary to be held
on the 12 day of September. Mr.
Bell is well.and ably representing
the people of the ninth district,
and it seems that the people are
unwilling to place a new man in
this position just now from the fact
that the nation is passing through
some very trying times and men of
experience are worth more in a
crisis, hence his high favor. Mr.
Bell has always been a dependable
representative and can safely be
counted on to protect the best in¬
terests of the people he represents,
as well as the nation at large.
1 have known Thomas M. Bell
fur fifty years and have always
found him a true friend. 1 want
to tell the people of the ninth dis¬
trict what he did for me some time
ago.
1 had a daughter living in Gaines¬
ville. She and her baby were taken
ill and the baby died at about mid¬
night. I'he weather was warm and
1 wanted to take it home for burial,
which is thirty miles from Gaines¬
ville. At that late hour 1 phoned
to Thomas M. Bell. He answered,
“Can I be of any assistance?” 1
told him what 1 wanted, lie said
as soon as 1 can dress I will be
there, and became. We got the
casket and other things needed. 1
asked him for a hack to carry the
mother and .corpse, lie said be
would get one. it was after mid¬
night then. I went to his office
about daylight and found he had
the hack and driver ready.
To the voters of the ninth dis¬
trict :
As Mr. Bell rose from his bed at
the midnight hour to help me, so
would he do the same to defend the
rights of the people at large.
VOTE FOR THOMAS M.
BELL.

Mrs. A. B. Stovall died at her

months. Her remains were brought
to 'Cleveland for interment and
placed by tender bands to rest in
Cleveland cemetery Monday at ii

Mrs. Stovall, Louanna, was the
daughter of J. F, and Delilah
Merritt, and was married to Mr.
Stovall about thirty-five veurs ago.
She was a member of the Baptist
church to which she attached her¬
self forty years ago.
Her husband, so devoted to the
wife ol his youth as well us the
years of his maturity, remained
true to the las! moment in doing
everything possible for her coinfoi t,
and tor nine long months gave his
life companion the most affection¬
ate care and attention, and he has
a host of sympathizers here as well
as in Dalton in the loss of his no
less affectionate wife.
The following is communicated
to us irom one who knew them well
in Dalton :
‘•About nine months ago Airs.
Stovall was brought to Dalton, an
invalid, by her husband, Mr.
Stovall. They were strangers but
they soon won many friends; Mr,
Stovall by his kind and gentle care
for his sick wife, and Mrs. Stovall
by her patience in her great suffer¬
ings and her abiding faith and
beautiful trust in her blessed savior.
Her suffering and death caused all
who witnessed it to see how (Tod
can bring light and gladness into
the heart of 11 is children while they
pals ifirougtf tiie'slia'ilovvs of tfeaffi.
Perfectly triumphant unto the etui
was she. Many friends administer¬
ed to her temporal and spiritual
and spiritual needs. But we feel
that we must mention those who
were constant in their labors of love
for her; those are Mrs. 15 . F. Perry
and Mrs. Teasley. Mrs, Perry and
Mrs. Stovall had many seasons of
of spiritual rejoicings together, and
Mrs. Perry deems it a great privi¬
lege to have witnessed such a glor¬
ious passage from this earth to
hea\en.

CLEVELAND, GEORGIA, AUG. 25 , 1916 .
In Memory Of Little Tatt Bowen.
We liad a little treasure once,
lie was our joy and pride,
We loved him. Oh! perhaps too well.
For soon he slept and died.
All is dark within our home.
Lonely are our hearts to-day,
For the one we loved so dearly,
lias forever passed away.
A precious one fi ora us lias gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can lie tilled.
God in His wisdom has recalled,
Tlie one His love had given,
And though the body slumbers here,
The soul is safe in heaven.
We miss thee from our home, dear Taft,
We miss thee from they place,
A shadow o’er our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine of they face.
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest rare,
Our home is dark without thee—•
We miss thee everywhere.
Those little lips so sweet to kiss.
Are closed forever now,
Those sparkling eyes that shone so bright
Beneath that pearly brow.
That little heart that heat so high.
Free from all care and gloom.
Are hidden now from those he loved,
Beneath the silent tomb.
Farewell, dear little Taft, hut not forever
There will he a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part, no never!
On the resurrection morn.
Though thy darting form lies sleeping,
In the cold and silent tomb, '
Thou shall have a glorious walking.
When the blessed i.ord doth come.
Written by liis unde.

HUGH DORSEY SWEEP
ING THE STATE.
Hugh Dorsey, the idol of the
rank and file of Georgia citizenry,
is meeting with popular favor
wherever he speaks and enthusiastic
admirers and pledging him their
active support wherever he goes.
lie is one of the truly brainy men
of Georgia. And his integrity can¬
not be questioned by any living
man, for it has been established be¬
yond all peradventure in the prac¬
tice ol his profession and his every
dealing in private life.
The In ties case lias been injected
in this gubernatorial campaign by
the opposition but in the Inues case
he gained fame that adds luster to
the brilliancy of his past achieve¬
ments. In Texas lie met and over¬
came an a ray of the ablest lawyers
ol the Lone Star State, including
Ex-Senator Joe Bailey, regarded as
the greatest lawyer that lias graced
the 1 lilted States Senate in modern
times—and to meet him was to de¬
feat him. In the U. S. Supreme
court in that same case he had to
cpmbat other legal luminaries of
national reputation, and to engage
in combat with them was but to de¬
feat them. Bringing the case to
Atlanta for trial, he had to over¬
come the combined talent, logic,
legal knowledge and oratory of
Judge John S. Candler, Hyndsiind
Col. Pettigrew, and to come in con¬
tact with them was but to over¬
come them.
Hugh Dorsey is so well known
that the masses of the people feel
that they know him and love him
I Homes as though lie were u kinsman
of the family.
The only hope of the combined
opposition is to defeat him by steam
roller methods in the state conven¬
tion. which tiling the professional
political sharks will be unable to do
for Hugh Dorsey is sweeping (lie
state and will go to the convention
with an overwhelming majority
that will be positively invincible.
