EDITOR RECORD; As | have not seen
anything from this neighborhood in your
paper for some time l concluded to write
ycr letter giving you some news from
THE neck.
a.aaerson Vance of this township. who
was awarded the contract for keeping the
new poor-house the first year, we learn is
preparing to take charge.
Marshall Edwards has been quite sick
for some time but is now getting much
better.
Tom Duncan has rented the Turney
farm for this year, and Sam and Ben
Turney are speaking of going west to
grow up with the country.
There is a cave near Powell's Chapel
in which potatoes and the like can be
kept the whole year, shoug h to store them
away and take them out is hazardous
lob. 1t is 70 feet to the fret floor. and
the only way to reach it is by rope and
windlass.
have heard many of the democrats of
this and adjoining townships talk lately
and all seem to be in favor of holding
county nominating convention this year.
I think it high time something was done,
and as Sharp county has never had the
Senator, l am in favor of democratic
senatorial convention in this the second
district. l have heard good many talk,
and form the opinion that something
like the following would be a popular
ticket, and I would like to see their an
nouncements in your paper subject to the
action of democratic convention:
For senator ID district, Judge W. G.
Mstheny, of Sharp county.
And the county ticket
For representative, Hon. r. B. Bella.
my of Lebanon township;
For county judge, P. H. Sullivan Of
Scott;
For sheriff, Thomas Bray Of Cave;
For county clerk, H V. Underwood OF
Davidson;
For assessor, Henry Lloyd of Highland;
For treasurer, Jesse Richie of Rich
woods;
For surveyor, D. D. Spurlcck of Nor
gan.
If any better ticket could be put out
by the democrats of Sharp county l
would like to see it. Respectfully,
JACKSON DEMOCRAT.

Our readers will discover, b.

Our readers will discover, by
reference to the top of the first COL
umn on this page, that the RECORD
is entered at the Evening Shade post
Office as second class mail matter.
That startling announcement does
not indicate that the paper is not a
frst.class journal; not at all. 1t
simply means that we "come in one"
of having to pay letter rates OF pos
tage to send the paper to subscribers
outside the county, which has ever
been the case since the paper was es-
tablished. Now, there's something
little peculiar about this "grand
entry" business that we can not
comprehend at this writing. The
RECORD has been published here
successfully and successfully for
more than ten years, and it was just
discovered a few weeks ago at the
seat of governmant that our publl-
cation was admissible in the U. 5.
mails at the pound rates. And this
discovery probably never would
have been made had we not sent
Mr.. Cleveland a few sample copies.
Mail route No. 29l6l from Eve.
Shade to Polk Bayou, has recently
been extended to Cushman and in
creased to three trips per week
arriving here every Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday, departing same
DAYS. It seems to us that this increase
would be in keeping with the demand
of the patrons of every office sup
piled on the route; but the P. NJ. at
Sidney don't think SO, and has ac-
cordingly written to the department
to have service cut down to two trips
per week again. 1t is true that the
route does not pay the government a
fabulous sum per annum, but it is a
great convenience to those who are
subscribers for the Record, besides
the delivery of other important mat.
ter. If the service is reduced we
hope the postmasters will have ths
arrivals and departurs to occur on
Mondays and Fridays.

Wild geese are said to be so thick in

A Massachusetts, court holds that cigars

at pays to sit down and think as

considerably; and we write from expe-

fellow his thinker won't act till he starts
for town with his last dollar in his pock-
ct, then he begins calculation in rather
uncommon fractions to make that dollar
reach as far as he has just learned that
stern necessity demands No; it won't
do to sit down to think every time.
