Hon< John W. Maddox, Our Rep
resentative.
From Cedartown Standard.
As the time is near at hand for
the Democrats of the Seventh con
gressional district to decide wno
will be their standard bearer in.
i the approaching campaign, it is
not amiss to examine into the rec
ord and acts of our present repre
sentative, and determine whether
or not it is our desire to re-elect
him to that responsible position.
It has always been, and ought
to be the policy of the Democratic
party to retain in office its faithful
servants as long as they are true
to the interests of the people, and
live up to the pledges of the part}.
The history of our country shows
that the most useful public men
are those who have been retained
in office a sufficient length of time
to gather experience of governmen
tal affairs. None of our statesmen
and public men have ever attained
distinction except after long terms
of service. As long as an officer
dees his duty and shows a capacity
for larger development he ought
to be kept in office, not on his own
account solely, but on account of
the good he can do for his constit
uents and the whole country.
As to Judge Maddox, none can
charge that he has not been faith
ful to the people; that ho has not
carried out every pledge as he un
derstood and advocated prior to
his election; that he has not voted
right on all measures affecting the
people’s interests; that he has not
honest and active and attentive in
the discharge of all his duties as a
member of Congress.
Then the question arises, Why
should wo not renominate and re
elect him? Wo repeat it is not to
the interest of the people to 1 e
continually changing officers mere- j
ly to gratify the personal ambition
of some particular individual. As
to Judge Milner, wo want to say
wo have nothing against him as a
man. Ho is an upright and capa-,.
ble gentleman, and has a perfect
right to aspire to the officeof Con
gressman. It is a laudable ambi
tion that no good man need bo a
shamed of. But Judge Maddox
has made a splendid record, is in
the active possession of a full, vig
orous intellect and manhood, and
has many years of usefulness ahead
of him. To retire him now, we
think, would be a serious blow to
tiie interests of the district and
the whole state of Georgia. By
all means, let us send him back to
Congress. ~ Democrat.
The following is from the Bain
bridge Democrat: "Outside of the
election ol a United States senator
by the next legislature we cannot
perceive wl at the financial ques
tion will have to de with the state
election. The governor and staH i
house officers will have nothing to
do with the enlargement of the
volume of money or contracting
it. That is purely a national ques
tion with whie’ congress and the
president w.! i have to deal. There
fore, we hope the democrats will
be vise c iough not to thrust any
thing into the state election that
will prove distracting and hurtful, j
There will have to be concessions :
made and a more liberal spirit dis-I
played among the leaders in Geor- •
gia to avert perilous results.”

1 ' A SHREWD SCHEME
Is Neatly Nipped In the Bud—A
Bit of Unwritten History.
What is known as a Senatorial
I convention for the 42nd district
was held in Rome last Thursday,
■ ostensibly for the purpose of elect
ing a senatorial executive commit
tee. A call to this effect was pub
lished in the Cartersville News
and the Rome Tribune last Tues
day, just two days, remember, be
fore the meeting was to be held.
It should be remembered further
that no notice, whatever, was sent
to the News for publication, or to
Cant. Cleghorn, Chairman of the
Executive committee of this coun
ty, or to any one else. The signi
ficance of this fact will appear a
little later on.
Fairly good accounts of the sur
face facts as developed in this con
vention were published in the
Rome papers, but they seem to
have either ignored the real facts
in the case, or to have been igno
rant of them. The News proposes
to give these for the benefit of its
readers, more especially as it is a
matter that concerns every voter
in the county.
In order to get a better under
standing of what is to follow, it
should be stated hero that Col.
Gus Fit >, of Bartow county, is a
candidate for judge of the Chero
kee circuit. He is opposed by Mr.
T. R. Jones, of Dalton, formerly a
citizen of this county and a broth
er of Messrs R. D., S. E. and J. A.
Jones. Owing to this strong fam
ily relationship in t he county, Col.
Fite had reason to believe that if
.Mr. Shropshire should be the nom
inee, his vote would probably go 1
to Mr. Jones, his opponent. On
the other hand, it may be stated
as a fact, that so far as anything
lin politics can be a certainty Col.
Fite will get the vote of the sena
tor from Mr. Jones’ district, the
43rd, and in this respect the gen
tlemen are on an equal footing.
■-f Col. Fite was not satisfied with
this state of affairs, however, and
while in Summerville recently sta
ted that he did not intend to sub- !
mit to the nomination of any man '
who would not support him for
judge. To defeat the nomination
of the only candidate new in the
field he outlined this sort of a
plan: Ho claimed that Chattooga
county had no right to make a
nomination, even when it was her
time to furnish the senator accord
ing to the rotation system, but
that the Senatorial convention a
lone, had the right and the power
to make the nomination. His idea
as expressed here was to have a
committee elected who would con
trol this matter in his favor; that
if a man was nominated from
Chattooga that was opposed to his
interests, (and named the man i
• • I
that is now i candidate) he would
iiavG this convention reject and
I repudiate the action of the county
i and have them to make a nomina
tion that was agreeable to Bartow,
or to him, which to him meant one
and the same thing.
In pursuance of this plan T. J.
Lyon, chairman of the last senato
rial convention, called the body
together to elect a senatorial com
) mittee. As stated before, only two
I days notice was given. No notice,
whatever, was sent by the chair
man to this county to be publish
ed, nor was any notice given the
chairman of the Democratic Exe
cutive committee, J. S. Cleghorn.
By the merest chance a gentleman
in this town happened to discover
this call as published in an out of
the way corner in the Tribune,
and knowing of Mr. Fite’s little
scheme, went to work at once to
defeat it. **
As a matter of fact Chattooga
1 failed to send delegates to the last
senatorial convention and hence
was now without any representa
tion in the meeting called. To
meet this difficulty as far as possi
ble it was suggested that the chair
man of the Executive committee
appoint two delegates, this being
the nearest possible legal solution
of the difficulty. Accordingly J.
\V. Cain, of the News and E. W.
Sturdivant were appointed. Mr.
Sturdivant being unable to attend
he requested and empowered Mr.
Cain to act as his proxy.
The meeting was organized, but
the Bartow county delegates
strongly Opposed seating Mr. Stur
divant as a delegate, or rather to
recognize his proxy, Mr. Cain, but
insisted that H, H. Arrington, who
was present, be seated. This was
done by a majority of one, the
chair voting to decide the tie. (
An executive committee was
then elected, consisting of Arring- .
ton and Cain from Chattooga, four
from Bartow and six from Floyd.
This new body met later and al
ter organization Col. Watt Harris,
of Cartersville, offered a resolution |
to call a senatorial convention to
meet June 20. The substance of
this resolution, and the object of
it, was to‘give this convention the
right to reject, or approve, as it
might see proper any action taken |
by this county in its primary call
ed to take place June 6. In other
words, if the nomination then
made did not suit Col. Fite and
his friends they would assume the
power to have it ignored, and
would then proceed to take such
action in putting out a candidate
to suit them as might seem best.
One of Col. Fite’s plans was to ig
nore Chattooga's action if it did
not suit him, and have his cut and
dried convention order a primary
to be held throughout the three
counties. All of this did nut ap
pear on the surface in the sharp
debate that followed but it is
known from other sources to be
true. The resolution as offered by
Mr. Harris simply meant in its
last analysis to take away from
Chattooga her right to make a
nomination for senator and place
that right in the hands of this
convention. * r
When it finally came to a vote
the four votes of Bartow and the
vote of Mr. Arrington, of Chattoo
ga, were cast in favor of the reso
lution, while the six votes of Floyd
and the vote of Mr. Cain, of Chat
tooga, were opposed to it. This
resulted in a majority of two op
posed to it and the resolution was
lost. z *
Never before in the history of
the 42nd district has any such
bold, unscrupulous attempt been
made to rob a county of its right
to name its candidate in its own
way. There is absolutely no pre
cedent for any such action. It is
wholly unwarranted by practice
or custom. The convention that
is usually called to meet after a
county puts out its senatorial can
; didate is simply to endorse and
i ratify the nomination so made,
! ard any attempt to dictate or con
trol the action of the county by
this convention has never before
been heard of. It was an exceed
ingly subtle scheme, and would do
credit to the serpent that trailed
its slimy length through the gar
den of Eden. The members of the
Floyd county convention were not
aware of the real intent and pur
pose of the meeting until within a
very short time of its occurrence,
(and some of them not then) but
as soon as they learned the real
facts in the case they stood by
Chattooga to a man, and vindica
ted and sustained the right of the
county, in its proper turn, to name
j its candidate for senator, free from
i outside interference or dictation.
The whole transaction on the part
of the Bartow delegation indicated
a purpose to deprive Chattooga
of her right to name her
candidate for senator in her own
way, and the most astounding part
of the whole business is that a cit
izen of Chattooga should be a wil
ling party to the scheme.
There are other facts connected !
with this little matter that may
develop later on. A lack of space
forbids further comment now.
Ths Rotation Rule.
The action of the senatorial con
vention was on the right line, ac
cording to the traditions of the,
Democratic party. The rotation rule
is the only just and equitable one !
among the different counties in the
selection of state senators, Accor-I
ding to that rule it is Chattooga’s i
time to choose the senator from j
the Forty-second district. It is
right and proper that the Demo
crats of Bartow and Floyd should i
give the candidate their hearty
support.
The last time there was a sena
tor to be chosen it was Bartow’s
time and Chattooga and Floyd
rolled up for the candidate, Mr.
Lumpkin, a very handsome major
ity. From the present outlook
Hon. Wesley Shropshire is almost
sure of the nomination. He is a
good man, an unswerving Demo
crat, and will fill the position to
to the honor and credit of the dis
trict and the satisfaction of his
constituents if elected.
But it makes no matter who is
selected by the people of Chatt
ooga county as their standard
bearer, it is the duty of the Dem
ocrats of Floyd and Bartow to
support him. The Democracy of
Chattooga is too staunch and loy
al to select any other than a
true and loyal Democrat for that 1
honorable posit) n, and their can
didate should be the candidate of
the entire Democracy of the dis
trict.
The only road to success is in
organization and fealty to the par
ty. We cannot all have just what
we want. If we could there would
have to be new offices created to
supply the demands of the candi
dates. Th? Democrats have en
ough to do to keep down populism
and republicanism without wrang
ling among themselves. The ma
jority rule is the prime requisite
'of harmony and success in the
Democratic party.
We believe that the rule of ro
, tation is fair and just and we
trust that there will bo no further
kicking on that score, The Dem
ocrats of Bartow should remember
that it was through the good ser
vices of Floyd and Chattooga that
,I a populistic senator was not sad
dled on them the last time. Now
, let them fall in and do their duty
in the coming contest —Rome Tri
. bane.
The Chattanooga Times.
The Souvenir edition of the Chat
-1 tanooga Times, gotten out during
1 the occasion of the Baptist conven
tion held in Chattanooga last week,
proves that the enterprising mana
gers of that paper are fully abreast
of the times when it comes to en
terprise and progressiveness. A
’' side from these special editions
which are always creditable, the
Times is a good, all round newspa
per and one that can be relied upon
3 for correct news.,
s The Fort-Blanton-Lewis-Bivins
scandal in the Third district is e
s nough to damn the reputation of
i ad parties concerned except Judge
i Fort. So far as we can see there
t is nothing to indicate anything
i dishonorable on his part. But
- the other three, two of them with
s the thirty pieces of silver to buy,
? and the poor devil of an editor
L weak and corrupt enough to sell,
i forms a picture of political de-
- bauchery, not pleasant to contem
-1 plate. What is the influence of
, such a man as Blanton worth in
- dollars and cents, anyway?

Mothers
Anxiously watch declining health of
their daughters. So many are cut off
by consumption in early years that
there is real cause for anxiety. In
the early stages, when not beyond
the reach of medicine. Hood's Sarsa
parilla will restore the quality and
quantity of the blood and thus give
good health. Read the following letter:
“It is but just to write about my
daughter Cora, aged 19. She was com
pletely run down, declining, had that tired
feeling, and friends said she would not
live over three months. She had a bad
Cough
and nothing seemed to do her any good.
I happened to read about Hood’s Sarsapa
rilla and had her give it a trial. From tho
very first dose she began to get better.
After taking a few bottles she was com
pletely cured and her health has been the
best ever since.” Mrs. Addie I’eck,

The late Eddie Farrell, who was a
San Fran ci: co politician, was at one
time employed in tho mint, “a sui
cide job, ”he called it, “at sßa day. ”
Ho would enter a saloon, and, after
a ■simulated spell of coughing, would
put his hand to his mouth and show
to tho astonished bystanders a small
gold nugget. He always carried it
with him. Then, with a sigh, ho
would remark: “My lungs are all
coated with gold, from working in
that mint. It’s a regular suicide
job. ’’ —San Francisco Argonaut.
