Hon. A. G. Hawkins, chancel-
lor af the 9th chancery division,
and the democratic nominee for re-
election, spent several days in the
county this week. Besides being a
genial and courtly gentleman, Judge
Hawkins is learned in the law. Two
cases appealed from his court in this
county were tried at the last term
of the Supreme Court and his de-
cisions were affirmed. The Office
of chancellor is one of great respon-
sibility and none but the most COM
petent should be chosen for that
position. In the selection of Judge
Hawkins the democratic party has
acted wisely and judiciously.
The first pair of pure-blooded
bloOdhounds in this section reached
here yesterday, consigned to w. F.
McCarley, stock claim agent of the
Illinois Central Railroad. They
are magnificent specimens of the
English bloodhound, and will be
trained to trail fugitives and for
breeding purposes. Mr.. McCarley
is well known as one of the best
breeders in the South, and will
make "Andrew Jackson" and "Ma-
room" a reputation as man hunters.
Outside of Nashville these are the
only imported hounds in Tennessee.

Prof. A. c. Minter, who has
been principal of Grammar Hall,
for the past two years, has resigned
his position to accept the position of
principal of the Southern Methodist
Institute and University of Wavely
at Wavely, Tenn. During Prof.
Winters residence and work in
Jackson he has endeared himself to
the people, not only as heightened,
Christian gentleman, but as an edu-
Gator of high grade-a man thor
Oughly welded to his profession.
Young in years, yet old in expert
ence, Prof. Minter's future is ex-
tremely bright. Under his manage
ment, the standard of excellency
heretofore established for Grammar
Hall has been fully maintained, and
it is with regret that the board of
directors accept his resignation,
granting the while that the new
field to which he goes offers him a
wider scope for usefulness. All who
know Mr.. and Mrs. Minter in Jack
son will wish them happiness and
prosperity in their new home
Jackson Wing.
Some of our third party friends
have been protesting vigorously
against the recent apportionment of
judges made by the chairman of the
county court to hold the coming
August election. They claim to be
the victims of unfair treatment.
Now let us examine the facts in the
case and see if their charge is true.
