B. STARK, ■EBGHUIT TAHOB 1< ARMSTRONG HOTE ROME GEORGIA. THURSDAY EVENING NOVEMBER. 8 1894. WILLCONTEST Er. Flopper Fe'ton is Crying Fraud Fraud. MRS FELTON IS TOO Wants Cobb, and Floyd Coun ties Both Thrown out. Mr. Fite writes a Salty Little Card about “Them Twain." Mrs. W. II- Felton was in the city yesterday. She confitmß the report that Dr. Felton will contest the election of Judge Maddox from the seventh congressional district. Mrs. Felton’s eyes Hashed aa she spoke of the incident in which Mr. Fit | igured several days ago, s j - ing that he w ai liable to prosecu tion fcr libel. “There weuld have been a land slide in Dr. Felton’s favor in Bar tow county but for the tactics pc • 1 sued by the managers at the polls,” said Mrs. Felton. I have in my pocket a list of reg istered votes of Bartow county with black marks struck through a number of Felton voters These met had paid their taxes, had re ceipts from the tax collector and been at cue time included in the list but were subsequently struck off. Scores of men went to the polls and’produced their tax receipts, but notw ithstauding this,they were not allowed to vote. Here is one man, Mr. W. C, Edwards, whose name was incorrectly printed ■Ed monds’ on the list, and although Mr. Edwards is one the best known citizens of Cartersville, having been a merchant there for years, he was nut allowed to vote because of this error in registration list. If there had been a fair election iu Bartow couty,Dr. Felton’s majo ri y would have been at A democratic leader said the other day that they would shout hallelujah in Cobb county if the democrats carried it by 200. In stead of that, the face of the re turns shows a majority of 500 for Maddox. In spite of the fact that a formal request was made for the registration list in Cobb before the state election, the matter was post poned until the 14th of November, when the list will be of no earthly value in th is election. With Cobb county thrown out and the two precincts of Bartow' and the Rome districts thrown out because of illegality, the result w ould be changed. As it is, the face of the returns only f hows a small majority for Maddox. The elec tion yesterday was the most cor rupt in the history of Georgia pol itics. And, when it is submitted to a fair congress, we feel confident that this great wrong will be right ed. Why, look at the vote in Rich mond county. Does any sane man think for a moment that the enor mous vote shown on the returns is a fair and legal one? You may rest assured that the whole thing will be ventillated.” FROM MR FITE. Cartersville, Ga., November 7. — Editor Constitution : My first im pulse was to reply to the infamous personal attack recently made on me by W. H. Felton, and his wife iu the way and manner which they so richly deserve, but old age on his part and the fact that she is a wiman, if nothing else, prevent it. Besides I cannot afford to get down and wallow in the dirt with them. I have heretofore given the facts to the public, the good peo ple here have rebuked the slander ers, I now leave them to hiss, bite and sting themselves to death, which they have already well nigh done. Very Respectfully, A. W. FITE. ADAIRSVILLE. Newsy Note From an Enterprising Correspondert, Adairsville. Ga., Ncvembe^Z.— Farmers are bury sowing wheat.

There is no medicine so often needed in every home and so ad mirably adapted to the purposes for which it is intended, as Cham berlain’s Pain Balm. Hardly a week passes but some member of the family has need of it. A tooth ache or scald promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time than when medicine has to be sent for, A sprain may be prompt ly treated before inflammation sets in, which insures a cure in about one-third of the time otherwise re quired. Cuts and bruises should re ceive immediate treatment before the parts become swollen, which can only be don when Pain Balm is kept at hand. A sore throat may be cured before it becomes periom A troublesome corn may be remov ed by applying it twice a day for a week or two. A lame back may b cured and several days of valuabl time saved or a pain in the side or chest jalieved without paying a doctor bill. Procure a 50 cent bot- tle at once and you will never re-i gret it. For sale by Lowry & Bros | ‘OUR JOHN” Judge Maddox’s Majority is 1785 Votes.
