MARRIAGE ITEM.

Editors Journal KNOWING that you

of two young friends of mine, both be-

The groonl's name was Mr.. "Aleck
Tricity." The brides name was Miss
BELL Patent" They were married in
Central South Carolina.
During their courtship "long dis
lance" separated them, but the lover
was a good manager" as we'll, and he
would rarely answer "busy now" when
his telephone girl" "called him up
They had their own way, no one to hol-
Ter "time's up" The current" of
their affections never weakened. They
suited each other admirably, being OF
the same station" in life.
At last they grew tired of the phone
as "transmitter" of their hearts's Sc.
crets. They decided on "better con.
nection," and summoned number
of their friends to attend the wedding
Every one whose name was on the dist

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

! President Roosevelt's message to
/ Congress is very lengthy one, making
two full pages in small type. He opens
with tribute to President Mckinley,
| giving new ideas of the significance OF
the assassination, that the crime was
not blow at government, nor at wealth,
bnt at labor, which never had better
! friend than Mckinley. And in this con-
nection. the message presents it's most
! radical utterances-those regarding the
! complete suppression of anarchy, oY
cooperation with other nations If adj
visable. For the regulation of Trusts,
it demands publicity that information
may be obtained on which to base leg
islation; and, if Congress cannot act
because of constitutional limitations, it
| advocates such amendment of the Con-
stitution as will enable it. The rights
of wealth are fully recognized, as well
rs the mischief of demagogues. Pros
perity is not due TO the tariff alone.
Reciprocity is essential to the enlarge
ment of our markets. The gold STAN
dard has provided a firm foundation for
business, but our currency must be
made more elastic. This is the gist of
these matters.
The message further proposes in the
interests of both capital and labor, the
creation of another Cabinet position to
be filled by the Secretary of Commerce
and Industries. All Government con-
tracts should contain the provision that
labor be performed under fair con-
ditions. More rigid laws should be en-
acted regarding immigration. The
Chinese exclusion act should be contin-
ued. Western lands should be reclaim
ed to agriculture by irrigation. The
Nicaraguan canal can now be construct
ed on our own terms, England having
agreed to the abrogation of the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, and should be begun as
soon as possible. Scuba should be given
differential duties in return for the
suzerainty we exercise over her affairs.
The Monroe doctrine should be upheld.
The Philippines should not be given
self-government faster than their peo-
pie deserve, but legislation should as
sist capital in the development, not the
exploitation. of the islands. The navy
should be still enlarged and better
manned, the army should be reorgan-
lied under General staff, and the Ma
tional Guards should be made reserve
under Government control.

A NEW HOTEL NEEDED.

Recognizing the need of a new hotel
in Marietta, as does most all of our cit
liens, Mr.. Moultrie NJ. Sessions has adj
vertised in a number of Northern pa
pers that the citizens of Marietta will
make handsome donation of $4,000
towards inducing some one to come to
Marietta and build modern, commo-
dious hotel to accommodate large
number of winter and summer tourists,
who formerly came to Marietta before
the Whitlock hotel was destroyed by
lire, and who want to come again. At
Ehe time of the destruction of the Whit
lock hotel April several years ago there
were ninety guests turned out into the
street. II Marietta. with her splendid
climate, equable in all its invigorating,
health-giving properties, had hotel of
commodious capacity and modern con-
veniences, located on one of the pretty
sites around Marietta, then we would
see an influx of Northern and North
western visitors to Marietta as in for
mer days that would be most gratifying.
The enquiries made constantly about
hotel accommodations for families. is a
good index of what can be expected if
u new hotel adorned our town. There
is various sites that can be had, and the
builder need not have to confine him.
self to any particular location, as the
hotel conveniently located in some nice
shady grove is what visitors with their
children want. We know of no place
in the south where a modern hotel
would pay better than here. Nature
has favored this place with splendid
advantages in the way of landscape.

a TOOtlIpick Fiend.

Speaker Whitecotton of the
Missouri legislature is said to
carry toothpicll in his mouth
twenty.three hours out of the
twenty.four. The habit is so
well known among his friends
that they make wagers that the
unsuspecting speaker will have
Il toothpick in his mouth on
some special occasion, and they
invariably win their bets. The
speaker acknowledges that the
habit has firm hold upon him.
He never chews the bit of the
wood; he simply holds it be
tween his lips. At night he
places fresh one IN his mouth
and in the morning finds it
there. -Quincy Herald.-Jim
