If you will look in our announce
ment column this week you will find
that VIM. b. Wood announces him
self as a candidate for Tax Assessor
of the county of Maury. Mr.. Wood
was at one time our Register, and as
far as we know made an excellent
officer, and should he be nominated
by the Democratic primaries, we
have no doubt but that he would
make an acceptable officer. Mr..
Wood carries part of his past record
in an empty sleeve.

AS was remarked by one member of
the firm, sit comes high, but we must
have it if it will bring us the CASH.
The HERALD does not like to sacri-
flee so much space to advertising
matter, but this time we thought that
perhaps no news would he better
news or more in .eresting news, than
to tell our readers where they could
get goods real cheap. From the ad-
Vertisement on the first page we infer
that this firm is in the same fix some
of our farmer friends are with their
mules; they are forced to sell their
stuff for less than it cost and less than
it is worth, in order to get the cash.
