LOGIC IS LoGIc.-The cows of a Georgia
farmer got into the pea-feld of his neigh
Dor and destroyed about ten bushels of
peas. Thereupon the latter farmer pre-
sented an account claiming Sc for ten bush-
els of peas, at GO cents per bushel The
owner of the cows examined the account
and then said "Look mere, my cows ate
up ten bushels of your peas, but you know
the rule in gathering peas is to give one
half for the gathering. So you see my
COWS were entitled to five bushels of those
peas for picking them. Therefore, l only
owe you for five bushels at 60 cents, and
that makes So. Here's your money" And
at So they settled

An Important Matter.

Editor PICAYCNE: - Ever since this county has been organized, there has been before each election, gen. eral scramble for office. The candi- dates canvass every nook and corner in the county. The mails are load ed down with letters and circulars. setting forth the claims of the differ ent aspirants. anu tine people have become (and very justly so. too) dis gusted with this manner of proceed ings. It engenders hard feelings. - An idea has been suggested, by sev- eral good men. that will obviate this, at least, to very great extent, in this wax: Let each township on the day it meets, send delegates to the county convention to nominate coun- tv officers; see that there is full turnout on that day; and send to the county convention true men.with instructions that they vote for none but those that are tried and true those who are identified with the people It would be well enough for the township conventions to give an expression, as to who they think would best fill the different places. l have every reason to believe that a body of this kind of men can and will select ticket that would he accept. able to the party, and one that would poll the full strength of it.
 Let the office seek the man and not the man the office. This, however the convention will decide upon.
 Would be pleased to hear from others on the subject. VOTER.
 The above communication was handed us last Wednesday, after about half of our last issue was print ed. We cheerfully give place to it, this week. We agree as to the sug- gestions. in the main. Let there be harmonious action and no scramble for office. There should be no canvass of the county prior to the delegate convention to make nominations, as "Noter' says has been the case here tofore. Rather let the office, seek the man than the man the office, as far as possible; a simple announce ment in the paper does not mean a scramble. it is canvass of the coun- ty by candidates that does the great harm. Whether or not they announce such scramble can easily occur-cv- cry one knows this to be true. There seems to be opposition to such q course and candidates should beware. This is free country and and every man a sovereign, who can offer for office if he chooses, and it Is Demo- cratic custom for them to do so. but the people want to see no "scram- blc." Another thing, when candi- dates come before the convention, let them pledge their hearty support to the ticket, regardless of whether or not they are nominated. Let harmony and united action prevail
