Constantine Commandry of Knight
Templars iniated nineteen candidates
at their Asylum Wednesday after
noonu and night., commencing at four
o’clock the Illustrous Order of the
Red Cross was conferred, after which
a banquet was served by the ladies
of the®Methodist Church in the Red
Men’'s Hall
The table arranged in shape of a
maltese ¢ross with beautiful floral
designs of cross and crown, (the em
blem of the order) made a lovely
picture. Seventy five plates were
served. The SBir Knights in their
handsome uniforms together with
the decorations combined to make
oue of the most brilliant banquets
ever served in Marietta.
After the banquet thre Sir Knights
reassembled at their Asylum and
conferred the order of the Temple on
the following candidates: Messrs.
W. T. Holland, Marietta, W. 'n'.‘
Faulkner, Canton, J. R. Winters,!
Austell, J. G. Lewis, Kennesaw, J.
W. Johnson, J. E. Johnson, S. L.
Johnson, Woodstock, C. W. Moss,
W. H. Simmons, W. A. Patterson,
Thomas A. Chastain, Roscoe Pickett
and C. H, Cox, Jasper, Z. D. Harri-
Bon. Jr., and 3. H. Wyatt, Bail
Ground, J. E. Cagle, R. E. Darnell,
J. B. Jones and S. A. Cagle, of Talk
ing Rock.
The big Shrine meeting in May is
the incentive that brings these can
didates to Marietta at this time. No
one can become a Shriner except he
be a Knight of Templar or a Thirty
second Degree Mason. So to be able
to enjoy the festivities during Shrin
ers week these candidates are on
their way to the Shrine which will
iniate them the latter part of April.

HOWE'S LONDON '
SHOW COMING]
The Howe'’s Great London Show is‘
coming here, and the date set for its|
coming is April 17th. Too much!
importance cannot be attached to
the date this show will be here, for
no one will care to miss seeing what
is admitted to be the very best ag
gregation now before the people.
With three rings, splendid menagerie
and a museum full of wonders, it
is not to be surprised at that it has
attained the reputation of being sec
ond to none.
. The show is far from being a new
one as far as its title is concerned,
for it has been catering successfully
to the amusement loving people for
the past generation and one of the
few shows that is endured and thriv
ed with age. This may be attribut
ed solely to the fact that it has al
ways kept just ahead of the times
and in advance of all other similar
aggregations, Merit has always
been the motto of the show, and this
has beensustained above all other
considerations. Another factor in
its success has been the treatment
that at all times has been accorded
its patrons. Exaggerated forms of
advertising have been eliminated
from its advance heralding; idle
boasts are foreigm to its policy, and,
in fact, there is nothing in any way
misleading that is tolerated by the
management of this gigantic aggre
gation. The patroms have always
been the first consideration both as
to their safety and comfort and the
quality of the performance given
them.
The show will arrive on {ts own
trains of double-length cars and will
spread acres of canvess to oare for
the people who will flock to it. The
main tent has a seating capacity of
10,000.
All of the teats are absolutely sun
and water-proof, and the system of
lighting at pight is the most perfect
in use by any show.
NOTICE.
I have sent blanks to each Notary
Public and Justice of the Peace in
the county and all who have not
registered can do so with these of
ficers. Please do so.at once.

SPRING TIME.
By Leslie Morgan Camp, aged 10
vears, 4th Grade A. Waterman Street
School.
As 1 went out one Spring day
I could not help but be gay,
Fer seeing everything in bloom.
I took some to my room,
And when I went to bed at night
I could see them in the moonlight.
And every bird would sing
As if they welcomed the spring;
And everything looked bright
As they danced in the sunlight;
And even the brooks would sing,
And they, too, welcomed the spring.
COL. JOHN P. CHENEY MAY
RUN FOR STATE SENATE.
Editor Journal:
I am being asked by so many vot
ers from all over the county as to
whether I am going to be a candidate
for legislature that I would like for
you to state that I will not ask for
re-election for the House but may
later on announce as a candidate for
the Senate.
It is my intention to run for the
Senate unless certain business mat
ters arise to prevent me,
My race for the Senate will be
based upon a releasing of the West
ern & Atlantic Railroad for only a
30 year period and to get at least
$700,000 per annum as a rental for
the road and the property connect
ed with it.
We are now getting only $420,000
per year for it and if the releasing
is looked after properly and in in
terest of the people instead of the
corporations, it will bring in a splen
did annual revenue to supplement
our common school fund, and to be
a great relief to the tax payers.
I hope the people of Georgia will
realize the great importance of the
W. b A. question. In my opinion
there is little probability that the
present legislature will pass upon
the question but it will be done by
the House and Senate which is to
be elected this year.
I wish to thank my friends for
their kind offers of support.
Resepectfully,
JOHN P. CHENEY.
HIGH SCHOOL CONTEST
WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.
Friday, April 3rd, the High School
Oratorical and Musical contest took
place in the Auditorium. The house
was full and the speakers faced a
large audience. The rostrum was
nicely decorated with a variety of
colors and pennants, and with a num
ber of girls and boys fired with the
enthusiasm of speaking and compe
tition. In the opinion of those who
had witnessed similar occasions in
times past, this contest brought out
a higher average of good speaking
than any contest in the history of
the school.
Rev. W. H. Cooper opened the ex
ercises with prayer, and ‘“Love’'s Old
Sweet Song'’ sung by a large number
of high school students, was first on
the programme. Exceedingly great
interest was manif sted by both the
contestants and the audience.
The committees decided on the
following as the winners in this con
test:
Declamation—Moses Jacobs
Recitation—Caroline Cooper
Music—Gertrude Smith
The decisions of the committees
was not unanimous, which fact
shows that very good work was done
by the other contestants. Adding to
the above the winners in essay and
spelling, Miss Emma Katherine An
~derson and Lucius Clay and Milton
McCleskey, the High School will
\have a representation at the District
Meet in Cedartown that will be hard
to beat.
The program was as follows:
Song—Love’s Old Sweet Son, High
School.
Rienzi to the Romans, Lawrence
Brumby.
How Jennie Eased Her Mind, Katie
Maddox.
Liberty or Death Henry Col»
Music—lnvitation to Dance, Ger

DATE FIXED FOR STATE
PRIMARY AUGUST 19
Governor John M. Slaton has an
nounced that he will be a candidate
for the unexpired term of Senator
Bacon. This announcement was
made following the statement of Sen
ator West that he would not be a
candidate.
There are already three other can
didates for Senator Racon’s seat—
Congressman Thomas W. Hardwick,
Attorney General T. S. Felder, who
hasg resigned to make the race, and
Lawyer John R. Cooper, of Macon.
Governor Slaton will ot resign the
Governorship until after the Pri
mary which has been ordered for Au
gust 19th, and will not resign then
unless he is nominated for the Sen
ate. He takes the position that the
people have elected him to the Gov
ernorship and he cannot quit that
office without their approval.
The Democratic Executive Com
mittee met in Atlanta Saturday and
arranged for the primary. The
County Unit plan was adopted. The
Convention will be held in Macon on
September Ist.
An effort is being made to in
duce Governor Brown to enter the
race for the Senate. Some of his
friends want him to run against Sla
ton and others want him to run
against Senator Smith. Governor
Brown will not announce his deci
sion for several weeks, possibly two
months. He says there is no neces
sity for hurry.
If Governor Slaton resigns Hon.
J. Randolph Anderson, of Savannah,
whose summer home is in Marietta,
will, as President of the Senate, fill
out Slaton’s term. He is a candi
date for Governor. Several others
will enter among them possibly
