The democrats turnout was snide enough,
but it would have been worse if they had not
borrowed everything to make up the dele
cation. Horses, saddles, buggies and all the
republican ladies' dresses.
Mrs. Grace Barker met with quite pain
full accident one day last week by falling

You are too good a republican to go down
there among those Bourbon democrats.
We think Porter will take the cake for
having the meanest democrat in the county
81 reports are true. 1t is said that one of
our wealthy democrats offered Chas. Hines,
who was working for him, the use of his
farm for one year if he would vote the
democratic ticket. Charlie accepted the
proposition in good faith, but was sadly dis
appointed by being "turned off, the very
next day. If any town in the county car
beat this we would like to hear from it.
