The next race for the nomination for
the Office of County Court Clerk in this
county is going to be the hottest the
Democratic party here has ever known.
The Office is considered the best in the
county by odds, and there are some half
dozen good fellows now who think they
have fought valiantly for the cause tor
long years, who believe they deserve
promotion, that are going to step out in
the field and make things hot from start
to finish. The race is a while off yet,
but mark it if our predictions are not
true. The man that gets there the next
four years may call himself hummer.
Though if he wins the nomination he's
got it.
Rev. L. A. Ross, OF st. Louis, Mo-, has
been preaching here in the NJ. +. Church
South for the past week. He is an
evangelist, but not as fanatical as some
men you occasionally see who start out
in the work. He is less than thirty
years Of age and has been in the work
about three years. His manner, language
and mode of speaking in the pulpit
is such as TO command attention and adj
miration. He uses no slang in his speech
and cuts no antics in the pulpit. His
whole soul is bent on doing good. He
makes no compromise with sin from
any quarter and he breaches the truth as
he sees and studies it. He is calculated to
do good in any community and il spared
will make great preacher. He was
raised in MISSOURI, but expects to make
this state his home in the future.
