This Class of Property
Higher in Price Than in
Former Years. |
Below is presented property values
in Cobb county for the present year
and for 1909. The figures speak for
themselves. They are taken from the
tax digests of the county for these two
years, and their accuracy can be re
lied on.
Marietta and Acworth, the two larg
est districts in the county, show a fall
ing off, while nearly all the other dis
tricts in the county show a substantial
increase over the returns of 1909—a1l
of which proves the upward tendency
of farm lands in the estimation of the
taxpayers.
The exact amount of the increase in
the total property of the county is
$498,865.,
The following are the exact figures
by districts:

The Single-Shot Rule.
Regarding the single-shot rule pass
ed by the State Executive Committee,
Chairman Pendleton bhas decided
that, in the absenceof any such rule in
any particular county, the county man
agers of primary elections will be jus
titied in following the precedents in
such county. There being no rule to
the contrary in Cobb county, this will
permit voters to exercise their discre
tion in so far as the same may apply
to legislative candidates.

Mrs. D. C. Cole. Mr. Mclntosh gradu
ated from the Marietta high school,

at Athens, where he made a record as
one of the best allround athletes
Georgia ever produced, graduating in
1899, then going West, where he uas
spent the last ten years.
Houston Mclntesh, as his Marietta
friends know him, has succeeded well
in the far West. Not only is he editor
of the leading paper of his city, but
he also holds the position of director
of physical education with the Mon
tana State College, located in Boze
man, and is a member of the facuhy

LOOK OUT FOR CAMPAIGN
STORIES.
There has been a rumor for some
time that those opposed to me will
publish a sensational story in the last
issue of the papers at a time when
it will be impossible for e to deny
it through the press. This should con
vince every reasonable man that it is
false, whatever it may be. 1 have been
in the race now actively for the past
six months, and to publish any story
now, when it ean't be denied for want
of time, is conclusive evidence that it
is a falsehood. We have the fight
easily won, and it looks as though it
will be a landslide, but 1 appeal to all
my friends tc go to the polls and work
hard in order that there may be no
question of a big victory.
7 Sincerely,
MOSES WRIGHT.
