The Constitution come out Tues¬
day with an entirely new make-up
on the front page, but as far us,
we like the old dress a great deal
better on that great newspaper.
This business of bopping-off
some foreign land has become,
numerous that the migototy
may soon wonder, if they do such
a thing, if the season doesn’t
change often.
The South is looking forward to
at least 30 cent cotton.
Everybody is anxious to see the
new Ford soon to be on the mar¬
ket.
Governor Hardman says there is
no indication for calling an extra
session. We are mighty proud of
that, for we all need a rest.
The Editor is very grateful to
Hon. Sam W. Wilkes, of the
Georgia railroad, Atlanta, for his
letter to us regarding Cleveland
a modern hotel.
Colonel Wilkes fully presents an
unanswerable argument on Cleve¬
land being logically located for a
modern hotel. More than that, he
goes to the bottom and tells what
must be done to interest
capititl. Now, citizens of
land, these facts are before you,
what will you do?
The Courier has been persistent
in trying to interest our local
ple that Cleveland needs a modern
hotel, but to our regret we
not thus far received much local
encouragement. We have, how¬
ever, hud considerable encourage¬
ment from people residing outside
of Cleveland, Why is it outside
people are more interested in
Cleveland having a modern hotel
than our local people? Is it that
they can see further than our local
people? We were even asked the
other day if Rip N un Winkle did¬
n’t spend his time here. What
could we say in reply?
Now honest, we haven’t only
bean asleep, but we are still dead
asleep. Suppose we throw aside
our selfishness and arouse from
this slumber.
We will never get anything or
anywhere by being stool
and gro.wliug about some
town getting all the roads
making rapid strides in a
sive way. We must go after them
with a pronounced spirit of unity
and exile all the knockers if we
forward as other towns in this sec¬
tion. If you doubt that, wake up
Ung enough to get s glimpse of
the true situation atid see what
Cleveland has done for tha past 10
years.
The Courier has gone along in
this matter in a gentle way labor¬
ing wholly unselfishly for the pro¬
gress of Cleveland, and only a very
few liavfe Jtold us that they too
wanted to see at modern hotel in
Cleveland, t . , , but . will ..... not be dis¬
we
couraged. Just a little local
couragement will keep us
ing away until Cleveland does
a modern hotel.
Mr. W. C. Henderson
Saturday evening from a two
day tour of Western North
lina and is highly enthused over
many modern hotels in that
of the Tar Heel State. He is
to take stock in a modern hotel
Cleveland to his financial limit.
The Courier knows that
capital can be easily secured
, local t people 1 •

soon as our are
ested. Mr. C. F, Saine,
ville, stated to us over a year
that he would subscribe $5,000 in a
modem ,50,000 hotel in
U«mC.N. Maloof and

(Courier that they -........ would » take stock ^
Now what will Cleveland do?

array of counsel on both sides, and

est fought esTitate coses in many years
The is estimated to
around $1,000,000.
Col. C. II. Kdwardi and Rev.
C. W. Henderson made

High School at Clermont Monday
ol last week.
The legislature passed a resolu¬
tion naming Ernest Neal, of Cal¬
houn, Ga,, as poet-laureate ofGeor
gia, Mr Neal succeeds the late
Frann L. Stanton.
The citizens of Cleveland should
turn out en masse on the square
Monday morning and welcome the
motorcade as they pass through
Cleveland. We should at least do
that much in expressing our ap¬
preciation of such a distinguished
body of men passing through our
town. If we don't show our ap¬
preciation, what can we expect?
