THE DALTON ARGUS.
The number of votes the winner of
this diamond ring gets will not be
published until the final awarding of
the regular prizes. This is done in
order that the true standing of the
winning contestant will not be made
known. That would not be fair to
her, as it w’ould give her opponents
an opportunity to make a close esti
mate of her strength, but she would
be unable to learn the standing of
her opponents.
Are you going to be the winner of
the special diamond ring that is be
ing given away next Saturday?
When your friends nominated you
in this big election they did it be
cause they wanted you to share in
the biggest gift distribution ever in

They continued to cast their votes
for you with the hope that you would
be interested enough to make a migh
ty big effort on your own behalf.
Are you doing it? Are you going to
disappoint those admiring friem)k
who gave you a start in this contest?
Ai»j you gong to shake their faith
in you and in your ambitions? How
long do you think they will keep vot

terest in the campaign yourself?
• This is the biggest offer that has
ever been made to the young women
of Dalton and territory and those
who’ take advantage of it will receive
a mighty big reward for their efforts.
Will you be one of them?
Every One Has the Same Chance.
On the little extra contest every
one has the same chance on the spe
cial diamond ring offered. Present
standing counts for nothing. It is the
votes issued on new subscriptions in
the week ending August sth that
takes the ring.
Do not delay your campaign a sin
gle hour. Get right out among your
friends and secure their subscrip
tions. They stand ready and willing
to lend their aid in this big election

HEW BRIDGE

CONNASAUGA
JUST A LITTLE SOUTHWEST OF
TILTON WILL BE
BUILT.
MONEY FOR JOHNSTON MONUMENT
The Whitfield County Commissioners
Had a Fine Business Sesion in
Dalton Today and Did Many Good
Things.
Judge Bogle and his cabinet of
county commissioners met this morn
ing at the court house.
Aside from the routine business of
the commissioners, they decided to
defray half the expenses of building a
bridge across Connasauga at a point
a little southwest of Tilton near the
old Bachman nursery and the Sloan
place across in Gordon county. Gor
don county will pay half the cost.
Another and most gratifying action
of the commissioners was appropriat
ing two hundred and fifty dollars to
ward the expense of the Joseph E.
Johnston monument. This amount
now completes the amount necessary
for its erection. All of the com
missioners were present, being W. T.
Cox, John Black, John Wilson and
Harlan Wood, besides of course,
Judge Bogle, who i schairman. All
of the above items will prove very
good news to the people of Whitfield
county and quite a number living over
in Gordon who live near or will have
occasion to use the new bridge when
it is built.

Until further notice candidates may cast for publication vote ballots
(i. e.—slips issued on subscriptions) to the amount of 3,000 votes more

OLD WHITFIELD IS GROWING
This County Has Never Fallen Off
In Her Increases.
Tax Receiver Arthur Broaderick
has completed the work of compiling
the tax returns of Whitfield County
for the year 1911, which show the
total valuation of taxable property
to be approximately $4,500,000, a gain

Mr. Bro|iderick was ably assisted
by his sister in compiling the figures,
and his showing is altogether satis
factory. Mr. Broaderick is making
a most capable receiver and is one
of the most accomodating young men
in the county.
Whitfield is one of the few counties
which has never fallen off in her tax
returns, but has always showm an in
crease of some sort.

TOLD WIFE TO GO ON PORCH
AND KISS OTHER MAN THERE
Judge, I told my wife to kiss that
man and I made them go out on the
front porch so this woman could see
there was no harm in it,” said I. R.
Cavin, an Atlanta piano salesman,
living on the corner of Spring and
James street, in police court yester
day afternoon, during the course of
the trial of cases of disorderly con
duct made against him and his wife.
Neighbors testified to “vulgar” be
havior on the front porch of the
Cavin home. Mrs. R. E. Richardson
and Mrs. Weeks, wife of a doctor,
both stated that Mrs. Cavin had
stood in the front door with a man
named Bill Talley, and had been hug
ged and kissed by him. Adjectives
applied to the performance placed
it in the “soul” variety.
“This woman,” said Cavin, meaning
Mrs. Richardson, “has been intimat
ing things to me about my home and
I went home mad. I found out that
the man whom she had been referring
to was an old friend of the family,
a second cousin, and I made them go
out on the £ront porch so they could
CHATTANOOGA SPECIALISTS
DISSOLVE PARTNERSHIP
The partnership between the well
known eye, ear, nose and throat spe
cialists, Dr. J. McChesney Hogshead
and A. P. D. Cleary, was yesterday
mutually dissolved, says the Chatta
nooga Times of today.
For the past two years these two
specialists have conducted the Chat
tanooga Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat
Infirmary at the corner of Vine
street and Georgia Avenue, and have
by strict attention and close appli
cation to their work built up a large
and extensive practice in their spe
cial line.
Dr. Hogshead will continue to prac
tice his profession at the corner of
Vine street and Georgia avenue,
while it is understood that Dr.
Cleary* after a few months’ res*
locate elsewhere.
GOING TO ATLANTA TO
GET FUNDS FOR THE
JOHNSTON MONUMENT
Now that the Whitfield county com
missioners have given a goodly
amount toward the erection of the
Joseph E. Johnston monument, Col.
W. C. Martin and Mrs. F. W. Elrod,
president of the Bryan M. Thomas
chapter of the Dahghters of the Con
federacy, will go to Atlanta in the
morning to see Representative Tar
ver and get the amount recently ap
propriated by the state and put the
whole amount out at interest. The
monument is expected to be complet
ed by this time next year.
The more interest your boy takes
in manly sports the less he will be
likely to gamble.
HACKNEY
May Succeed Mr. Frank
W. Elrod at the Baggage
Room
Mr. James Hackney, of Varnell, is
now the temporary baggage agent here
for the Southern and Western & At
lantic railways during the absence
of Mr. F. W. Elrod, who is now in
Atlanta making preparations to move
his family there about the first of
September. It is rumored that Mr.
Hackney may keep the position per
manently.
ONE DOLLAR A YE AB
see there was nothing in it.”
Judge Broyles, at the close of the
man’s statement, made some vigorous
and caustic comments on his admis
sions, and declared that no decent
man would have stood by and seen
what was going on.
“There ought not but one man in
the world hug a woman as these peo
ple say that woman has been hugged,
and that man is her husband,” he
said.
During the progress of the testi
mony Mrs. Richardson attempted to
illustrate the hug. At her right was
Officer Williams. As she swiped at
him he ducked toward the desk.
“Oh, don’t be afraid, she said to
the reluctant huggee, “I’m not go
ing to hug you.”
Cousel for Mrs. Cavin brought out
the fact that Mrs. Richardson had
once been arrested herself. She told,
the court that some eight years ago
she had beat a man who had imposed
on her on the street, because she had
no one else to do it for her.
Mr. Cavin was fined sls and costs
and Mrs. Cavin was fined $25 and
costs.
DAUGHTER OF CONFEDERACY
WILL TALK AT CIVIC MEET
At a meeting of the Daughters of
the Confederacy, held on last Friday
afternoon, a popular daughter was
appointed to represent them and give
a talk relative to the Johnston monu
ment.
The lady chosen is to give this talk
to the people of Dalton on the occa
sion of the Get-Together Outing
which will occur next Tuesday night
on Fort Dependable.
Several hundred chairs will be pro
vided for use of the ladies. The city
will install electric lights on the
grounds and the Dalton Band will
enliven the occasion with music.
DEVIL MAY BE JOKER
BUT HE IS NO JOKE
Chicago, July 31 —“The devil is a
reality. He may he a joker, bat he
is no joke. He is as subtle as a twen
tieth century politician, and the bigk
gest liar the ages have produced.”
This statement was made today by
Rev. D. C. King, pastor of the Nor
wood Park Methodist church, at the
closing session of the Desplaines As
socia t ion campmeet i ng.
“Man has not changed in the essen
tial sos his character since the days
of Adam and Eve,” continued Dr.
King. “The bold outlines are the
same. Adam’s program of innocence,
sin, guilt sorrow, struggle and salva
tion still is our program.”
Now honestly, wouldn’t this town
look better if those brick walls in the
burned distrct were razed?
