THE CLEVELAND COURIER
^OL. XXII, No 4 .)
HEW REAL ESTATE COMPANY
ORGANIZED.
In the last few years the lands of
White County have advanced by
leaps and bounds to the place
where it properly belongs.
Without going into comparisons,
1 may 6ay it is our belief, based on
consideration of conditions in
White Gounty and elsewhere in
the United States, that no section,
no matter where located, offers
belter advantages than our county
te the man of energy and deter¬
mination.
A number of wealthy admiers
have built beautiful homes near
aur ruggedly beautiful mountains.
And the summer hotels are packed
fall by tourist from all part of the
country to spend a few pleasant
days away from the noise, mosqui¬
to and hot dreary nights to a land
wh*re good water, cool nights
(where one needs cover) and climb
the scenic mountains—Yonah and
Tray.
White County produces on some
of its improved lands from 75 to
too bushels of corn per acre and a
a bale of cotton per acre. It has
the best orchard lands in the Unit¬
ed States. Her apples take first
prize at all fairs and her farmers
Are improving livestock to equal
the best.
That her resources may become
witier known a new real estate
company has been formed compos¬
ed of men of entegrity, public
spirited, who stand for a better
White County. The name of the
company is White County Reatty
Company, formed by J, B. R. Bar¬
rett, Jas. P. Davidson and S. E.
Reece. Each of these men are
well known in the county and need
no introduction from us.
They will appreciate the busi¬
ness that their friends will give
them and assure curteous treatment
in all their business and social rela¬
tions.
It is the intention of this com¬
pany to further the best interest of
White County and if you have
farms or lots for sale, consult either
of these men. They have some
very attractive farms and it will be
to yours advantage if you are con¬
templating buying a farm to see
them first.

WILL HUESSEY KILLED
Drunkenness gets another vic¬
tim.
Last night, or rather about 12 :35
this morning, a group of men were
eating at Bishop’s cafe on Main
street, a block from the police sta¬
tion. After awhile J. C. Grant
came in and saw B. M. Farmer. He
at once picked up a quarrel with
him on account of an old grudge,
Grant accusing Farmer of taking
the former’s wife out driving. And
before any could interfere, Grant
whipped out his pistol and shot at
Farmer. Farmer returned t he
shooting. After the powder had
cleared away, it was found that
Wiley Husey, a by-stander, had
been shot a little aboue and to the
right of his navel and that Grant
was shot through the right thigh ;
Farmer was shot through the right
arm near the elbow.
Gr^nt wa% caught at home in
bed on Myrtle street. He and
Farmer are locked up in the county
jail, and a salesman from Atlanta
is locked up in the city jail, held as
a witness.
Inquest on Heussey is being held
today.
Grant was drunk when caught.
The probability is, as was stated by
the wife of one of them,, that they
hat! been out in the country gamb¬
ling arid drinking.
J, C. Grant will be remembered
as the man who walked through
the square a few years ago sboot
ing right and left and who entered
the Palmour Hardware store, de¬
manding ammunition, when Fire
Chief Parks slipped up ou him and
caught him backing out of the
store. He has been in trouble
since. When in the army he made
a good record, and is all right
when sober, but when drunk he is
very vicious and liable to do any¬
thing.—Gainesville Eagle.

Congressman Bell Received Great Ovation By
The Citizens oi White County
Congressman Thos. M. Bell, who
as everybody in the Ninth district
doubtlesss knows, is a candidate
for re-election, spoke to the people
of Cleveland and round about in
the court house in Cleveland Tues¬
day to a larger audience than was
expected by his friends on such a
rainy day. 5 The court room was
well filled, and he was given a very
attentive hearing.
Mr. Bell dealt squarely With his
record in congress, stating to his
hearers in unmistakable language
why he was asking for re-election,
and gave his reasons for his posi¬
tions on ell vital questions coming
before congress. Among other
things his opponents have chal¬
lenged him to state his position on
the league of nations. To this Mr.

A protracted meet ing was held
at Blue Creek church last week.
We had s^ipe good preaching, four
joined the church. Also a good
meeting was held at Zion, It is
reported that twelve joined the
t^lurch there.
We were sorry to hear of the
death of Mrs. Maude Burke. She
leaves a husband and five small
children.
Mr. A. B. Freeman is very ill at
this time. There is very little hope
of his getting up.
Mrs, William Parker visited her
sister, Mrs. Emma Tatum, of
Clarkesville last Saturday and Sun¬

T. P. Tatum, of Cornelia, was
up this way recently visiting his
mother.

TO A VIRTUOUS YOUNG LADY
Lady, that in the prime of earliest youth
Wisely lias shunned the broad way and the green,
And with those few are eminently seen,
That labors up the hill of heavenly truth,
The better part with Mary and Ruth
Chosen thou hast; and they that over ween,
And at their growing virtues fret their spleen,
No anger find in thee, but pity and truth.
Thy care is fixed, and zealously attended
To fill thy odorous lamp with deeds of light,
And hope that reaps not shame. Therefore be sure
Thou, when the bridegroom with his feastful friends
Passes to bliss at the mid hour of night,
Hath gained thy entrance, virgin wise and pure.—Milton.

of the eoporate limits of the town of Cleveland, on one of the
main thouroughfares leading out of Cleveland, consisting of a
4 acre tract that lies wall and has a 4-room dwelling and good
out buildings. This is an ideal home for persons wishing to
locate near a good High School.

j. B. R. Barratt, Pres.
Bell told his hearers that he surely
would tell the people his position
on that question, but while he was
doing so that he wanted them to
fully understand that congress had
nothing whatever to do with the
ratification of the treaty or league
of nations, and that he, and nearly
every ifot representative in congress
did favor the ratification of the
treaty as ir was brought back from
Versailles. He believes there
should be some modification or res¬
ervations attached to it that
would guarantee America from
dangerous foreign entanglements.
lTe told his hearers that he as
much believed the children of Is
real had a leader named Moses.
He also spoke to a large audience
at Helen Tuesday night.

Cheese Factory Lacks Patronage
At a meeting of the stockholders
of Cleveland Co-operative Cheese
Factory, held Tuesday, a resolution
was passed asking the directors to
make a complete survey of the
surrounding country to ascertain
the amount of milk that could be
furnished tfie cheese faotory, and
in the event that it was found that
a sufficient amount of milk could
not be obtained to warrant the fur¬
ther operation of the factory, that
steps be taken to liquidate the in¬
debtedness, even if it is necessary
to sell the factory's equipment nnd
building to do so.
There if but one reason why the
cheese factory has not been able to
meet its expenses, and that is be¬
cause of lack of patronage. The
people of the surrounding country
have not supplied it with sufficient
milk to give themselves a fair price
for their milk. The more milk that
is furnished a cheese factory the
greater the amount paid for. the
milk, because the cost is no greater
—or very little greater—to manu¬
facture 500 gallons of milk into
cheese than it io manufacture 50
gallons.
If the people will get right in be¬
hind the factory there will be no
question but that it will pay good
and satisfactory prices for milk,
and the factory will prosper. But
if they do not, the cheese factory
must fail and be sold at whatever
price can be procured for it.
