Who is the Democracy?
Does the plow lessen a man’s patrio
tism?
Why does the town concentrate
against the farmer’s candidate?
Dalton ought to have the Methodist
District High School.
Quite a crop of apples is being ship
ped from this market.
Dalton can never be happy without
a railroad to Murray county.
The new hotel is badly needed to ac
commodate Dalton Summer visitors
just now.
Cedartown met the “original pack
age” fiend in a compromisive f pirit.
They agreed on a thousand dollar sa
loon tax.
There was just as much ridicqle of
the cotton bagging resolutions of the
Alliance as there now is of its sub
treasury plan.
Every man who fought the cotton
bagging will now be found fighting the
farmer’s candidates. And they will
continue to fight every movement of
the Alliance.
Candidate Clements makes a red hot
plea for personal freedom in the Al
liance. It takes personal freedom to
combat the office holders, and that is
what the country needs.
Cartersville shut off the “original
package” in that town by a rousing
mass meeting, and adoption of resolu
tions that they didnt want it. and were
not going to have it.
The Macon Telegraph is tearing its
summer shirt to know how Col.Northen
stands on the sub-treasury plan? He
stands with the farmers, and what are
yen going to do about it.
Congressman Clements thinks a
SIOO,OOO post office building at Rome
is all right; but a $25,000 farmer’s
warehouse at Dalton would be class
legislation.
We are going to try next week to re
list the vacant real estate of Dalton,
till December 30th. If listed as desir
ed Dalton will have a help before the
new year sets in that will be good for
us all.
Congressman Clements wants to know
what a farmers warehouse at Rome
will benefit the poor farmer of Dade
and Murray county? What’s the mat
ter with Dalton, Cartersville and Ma
rietta having a warehouse?
We trust that every good farmer,
gardueT and house wife in Whitfield
county will endeavor to supply some
product that will go to make up a pre
mium taking exhibit of the county at
the Piedmont Exposition.
In to-day’s Argus will be found the
announcemmit of Hon. Paul. B. Tram
mell as a candidate for the Legislature.
Paul needs iro commendation from us,
as he has served the people faithfully
and will continue to hold up the inter
ests of Whitfield, to'fjiat high standard
in which our people pride.
The farmers want the sub-treasury
bill, “or something better,” and that
“something better” must be a special
bill to relieve the pressure of the mon
ey market which enables Wall street
to lower the price of the farmers’s cot
ton at selling time, and to increase it
when out of the farmer’s hand.

DALTON, GEORGA. JULY 19.18911.
Many summer visitors are being
turned from our doors for the want of
hotel and boading house accommoda
tions. The completion of the Hotel
Empire will double the necessity for
well-kept and roomy boarding houses,
and these in turn will increase the ne
cessity for another hotel—a magnifi
cent structure with parks and groves
on its beautifully improved acres—a
family home with the odor'of flower
yards spicing the fresh, sweet pure air
of the hills and mountains. Our peo
ple arc probably doing too well to sug
gest to them the money there is in the
business, and to the town ; but in rap
id succession they will come, and then
it will be found that a dollar brought
to the town has the same value and ac
tivity for good,though it come through
a boarding-house, as if it had been the
exchange value of a piece of timber, a
pound of iron and a bolt of cotton. It
is circulating cash that makes wealth
and activity, and a board
ing house which collects a few thous
ands a year is just as big a thing as a
factory or store which does no more.
We want to impress these things be
cause there are good openings in Dal
ton that need to be developed. The
woman who can set an appetizing ta
ble, and spread sunshine about the
house is an artist with broad fields of
money making before her. The whole
world is hungry for pleasant homes
and good cheer. The profession of the
future is to gratify this craving. . It
succeeds wherever tried.
Hair all gone, scalp covered with
eruptions, and pains in all of his limbs,

hair has grown out, and that 1 ' j- a

The amount necessary to make the
much needed improvements of the Fe
male College has been raised, and the
Trustees will push the work so as to
have it completed by the opening of
the Fall Term. While this will secure
a most elegant and convenient build
ing, a few thousand dollars extra would
add largely to its furnishing,and would
prove most acceptable to the Trustees
who have, as individuals, been very lib
eral in their donations.

It has been currently stated that
Congressman Clements’ henchmen
used whiskey profusely in the prima
ries of Gordon county two years ago
to defeat Col. Shumate. That would
have been an outrage if perpetrated by
some poor devil from Alabama, in the
sight of good prohibitionits. But of j
of course his money didnt pay for it. ■

Great Activity in ths South.
A careful study of all the forces now
at work tending to the development of
the South will convince any one that
this section is entering upon a period
of greater activity than we have yet
seen. The foundation work has been
done. This was to convinue the busi
ness world by the logic of facts that
the South has the great stores of coal
and iron and timber and agricultural
possibilities that the Manufacturer’s
Record has for ten years been pro
claiming, and that the combination of
advantages which it possesses for sup
porting a dense population by reason
of its natural resources is greater than
can be found elsewhere in America or
Europe. This has all been done. Ten
years ago the South was struggling to
get a start; five years ago Birmingham
and Chattanooga and Atlanta practi- i
cally represented the industrial South, j
and Birmingham was regarded as
about the only iron-producing center
I that this section was eyer to haye. It
was less than five years ago that other
j towns in Alabama were established as i
iron-making points. Not until 1886
and 1887 and later even was there any j
actice development to bring prominen
i tly before the public such places as
Anniston, Sheffield, Bessemer and oth
er towns that are now pushing ahead
so lively, Moreover, at that time in
Alabama and a small section of Ten
- nessee centered all the development
that was going on and the rest of the
i South was almost stationary. Now
the Virginias, the Carolinas, Tennes
see, Kentucky and Texas are all keep
ing well up with Alabama's progress,
and the other States are fast getting
ready to follow in the same line.
Capital no longer shuns the South.
It has been demonstrated that the
South can produce iron, steel, cotton
goodsand woodwork cheaper than any
other section, and capital is pouring
there very rapidly. New England was
’ only converted a year ago or less to the
South’s great future, but like many
other hardened sinners, it seeks now
to atone I r the past by the most en
' tbusiastic work for the South. It is
i true that'it works for it because it ex
pects to profit largely therefornp But
the South is getting its surplus capital
and surplus energy, and towns are
springing up wherever these are appli
ed to the development of Southern re
sources. Old England follows suit,
and many millions of her money arc
coming Southward and other millions
will follow. Even from far off Dakota
active men of brain and money are em
igrating Southward in large numbers,
i and Kansas City,the home of the bodm
; er, is sending many of its foremost
workers into this favored land. When
Dakota railroads run “home-seekers”
excursions to the South, as they will
do this fall and winter, commencing
in August or September, it is easy to
see which way the tide sets.
And so, in whatever direction we
look, everything is favorable to the
South.. The Manufacturer’s Record
has many predictions in the past as to
the South, and they have all been ful.
filled. Looking oyer the whole field
it now predicts that the coming fall’
and winter will witness a wider diver
sityof industrial growth, more activi
ty and more prosperity that the South
or any portion of it has ever been en
joyed.—Manufacturer’s Record.
Gentlemen —I have suffered for
years with a kind of Tetter, or break
ing out all over my body, and at times
these small pimples would terminate
in boils. While traveling in the south
last year I had occasion to try a bot
tle of P. P. P., which was recommended
to me by a friend, and to my surprise
it helped me so much that I got six
bottles more and after taking full con
tents, I felt better than I had since the
beginnig of my troubie, and while I
have no symptoms of the disease re
turning, I am still using the wonderful
blood medicine at intervals, and am
fully satisfied that I will be entirely,
cured of a disease that for fifteen years
has troubled me. I cannot express
my gratitude to you for so wonderfql
a benefactor as your P. P. P. (Prickly
Ash, Poke Root and Potassium). 1
am yours truly, Jacat Peters,
Traveling Salesman.

Manufaoture Little Things.
Whateverer else foreign nations may
overlook of American manufactured
products, shey all take a fancy to and
become purchasers of those little in
genious things that inventive brains
have devised to facilitate domestic la
bor. Ono day recently two luge ships
cleared from New York, one bound for
New Zealand ports, the other for Mel
bourne, Australia. Both ships carried
miscellaneous cargoes,consisting main
ly of heavy and shelf hardware and of
agricultural tools and implements.
With these were a goodly assortment
of articles, such as curry combs, egg
beaters, cloths wringers, rat traps,
transom lifts, towel rollers, ice cream
freezers, hog ring, apple parers, lemon
squeezers, meat choppers, toy banks,
toy wagons, 54 dozen fly traps, 78 doz
en mouse traps, 300,000 percussion
caps,etc. Os the heavy hardware,nuts,
bolts, axles, pumps, fence wire, hatch
ets, axes and hammers, aggregated
many tons, while in a single invoice
were 929 packages reapers weighing
108,000 pounds. Our Antipodal cus
tomers are annually increasing their
purchases of goods of this kind from
the United States, although they are
British colonies.
There are several things suggested
by this trade. One is that as fast as
the wolrd learn that any class of Amer
ican manufactured goods are better
then a market for them is made. An
other is that those who have not had
opportunities ro compare American
with the European goods they have
heretofore used cannot be expected to
buy ours. The international drummer
must start from our shores and edu
cate the world in our favor. World’s
fairs like those of the past in Europe
do much, but the intelligent commer
cial traveler does more.
If the trade in small articles of
American manufacture is world wide
and is always increasing, would it not
be wise for the South to specially en
courage all such industries in its own
midst? Every household supply store
; im the South carries in its stock hun
dreds pf articles that ought to be made
I there, but that come from the North.
tVe know this is oft-told tale, but
the Manufacturer’sßecord intends to
iviterate it until these small industries
receive the attention their importance
deserves. The South must make its
own supply and thus get ready for
competition in all other markets. —Bal-
timore Manufacturer’s Record.

The Rev. Dr. Bennett, of Columbus,
recently preached a sermon in which
he said : “There is something wrong in
a system which allows a woman to die
on one street ot starvation and anoth
er woman in the same city to spend
S6O for nightdresses; which arrests a
man for parading the streets with a
placard asking for work, and at the
same time Tiffany is selling stew pans
made of silver for millionaires to cook
their breakfasts in ;that starves women
and children and permits a lot of con
scienceless brokers to create a corner on
wheat; that compels women to make a
dozen shirts for 75c and find her own
thread, or that permits children to
work twelve hours a day forsl a week.
It is estimated that there are over
1,000,600 adults in this nation who
are willing to work, and who cannot
get work. There are said to be men
in Columbus who are working, some
ten. some twelve, and some fourteen
and sixteen hours a day, at $ 1.25 a day.
On these facts, and others, like them ,
the demand for a new system arises.
