bined pleasure and business trip to st.
Louis and Nashville. He informed us
that he would be absent about two or
three weeks, when he would return
with fine lot of horses and mules, and
proposes to give the people of Madison
county great bargain at his sale.
The TIMES wishes him that degree of
success which he so we'll merits.
John Calhoun, of Marshall county,
and a former editor of the Holly
Springs Reporter is candidate FOR
railroad commissioner from his dis
trict. He is brother of Judge S. S.
Calhoun. of Jackson, and like him was
born and reared in Canton. His long
experience as newspaper man should
give him ripened experience in
public affairs and as the name of Cal
houn is synonymous with integrity. he
should make competent official.
There is good reason for the popu-
larity of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy.
Davis & Buzard, of West Monterey,
Clarion Co., Pa, say: sit has cured
people that our physicians could do
nothing for. We persuaded them to
try bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and they now recommend it
with the rest of u.s." 25 and so cent
bottles for sale by druggists.
The TIMES stands for home people
and home advancement as against all
the rest of the world, along right lines.
When Canton is fourishing busy
trade mart from one end of the year
to the other, and the surrounding
country is in a high state of agricul-
tural prosperity, and every farmer
large and small with cash money dur
ing the season to spend, then we will
be happy. To this end we invite the
cooperation of all our people. Let us
all pull together.
Many stubborn and aggravating
cases of rheumatism that were believ-
ed to be incurable and accepted as life
legacies, have yielded to Chamber
lains Pain Balm, much to the sur
prise and qualification of the suffer
ers. One application will relieve the
pain and suffering and it's continued
use insures an effectual cure. For
sale by druggists.
The communication of j. H. Petty on
the silver question, though quite
lengthy for a country newspaper is
published to show we are fair minded
on all questions, and want our readers,
who do not of course all think alike. to
see both sides. Mr.. Petty has handled
the subject ably and logically from his
stand point. His conclusion that this
country alone should not enter upon
the free coinage of silver, but the
whole matter be RELOCATED to interna-
tional agreement, places him in line
with the gold standard advocates. We
will have something to say on national
finances next week.
Mr.. Carroll Smith informs us that
he is preparing to build fine three
story brick hotel, with 81 rooms, next
door to his steam gin. This imposing
structure will be fully equipped with
all the modern improvements, and will
be an acquisition Canton may well feel
proud of when completed. Mr.. j. L.
Rush has already contracted to rent
the building as sooD AS completed, and
he informs us that his charges will be
very moderate, only one dollar day,
and that over half of the rooms are al I
ready engaged. This institution will
afford our people the means of cheap
living on a par with the depressed
condition of their finances.
Messrs. G.. W. Covington C Co., have
recently added to their stable very |
handsome Kentucky saddle and har-
ness stallion, ENBOYD. He will be
years old next spring, l5% hands high,
lark chestnut sorrel, star in forehead,
heavy name and tail. good bone, very
stylish. and a splendid combination
horse. a fine breeder and subject to
ENBOYD's breeding is of
the best, his pedigreei is unexceptional..
A visit to their stable and personal
of this great acquisition to
the county will well repay anyone in
Crested in improving their stock:
Mountain Slasher being dead and
Tramp Denmark sold. ENBOYD was
purchased to replace them, and we say
without fear of contradiction, that he
will in every respect, equal, If not
excel those well known sires. A
We wish to call special attention to
the sale of horses at this place on Sat
