We are glad to learn that our
friend Riley Copeland was nomi-
mated for council on the National
ticket in Delaware district. Mr..
Copeland is an intelligent pro-
gressive young man and would do
honor to place in the national
council.
THE National party Of Coo wees
coowee district will probably nom-
mate c. c. Lipe for clerk to sue
ceed II II. Trott, the present in
cumbent. "Jake" is a strong man
has had the Office once before and
was a very efficient and popular
officer

AT the recent district convention
of the National party Of Delaware
district it seems that those who
voted for Senators Bell and Hen
derson two years ago were excom-
municated. Surely, purity in pol
itics is not an iridescent dream"
in Delaware.

THE general assembly of the
Presbyterian church has ruled
that church fairs, festivals, etc.,
are improper ways Of raising mon
ey. We have always been Of the
opinion that the Lord was not SO
poor as TO justify his people in re-
sorting to such modes Of raising
money.

Miller; sheriff, Thos. Monroe
clerk, Walter Breedlove.

How Senator Henderson can en-
dorse the National platform and
advocate allotment at the same
time, he failed to explain at the
Beck school house. S. S. Steph-
ems very aptly reminded him at
the time that he Henderson, had
planted the allotment tree but had /
neglected it and let it die.

IT seems that some of Sheriff
Adair's deputies are trying to Sc
cure the nomination for sheriff
themselves. Mr.. Adair would be
bound to admit, in justice to him
self that they were worthy men and /
efficient officers, otherwise he GER
tainly would not have appointed |
them. But then, it makes world (
Of difference as to whose OK is 7
gored.

low this class OF people should
first pluck out their eyes and fiji
their craniums with saw-dust, be-
cause no one can be an indepen-
dent thinker and follow the leader
