-The Russellville Democrat man in speaking of the scarcity of suitable matters for the country editor to expos t,ilate upon, suggests that right at this season mud throwing would be nice avocation. He says, however:
 We have the advantage of the State, for his mud is all clay and is notso easily handled as ours. No doubt it would hurt like the mischief to catch a wad of that clay, and the sting would be Felt( (by) Jus a long time. So we won't try the State.
 No, we don't want to sling mud at you, Jim, but if you will ''come to see us, we can put brick ia your hat so much so that the BattentD field would be left to somebody else.--Lewisburg State.
