Read Rev Cherry on cigarette smoking.
Read and reflect that with all of his
earnestness, that with the portrayal of
all those pen pictures, the half of the
evil consequences cannot be told. Boys,
if you will be slaves, put yourselves in
chains and bondage, let the letters be
the lesser evil-cigars-yes pipe, If you
please, anything but the deadly, poison
GUS cigarette.
How shall l spend the Fourth? is an
all absorbing question just now. A big
picnic at Sulphur Springs will attract the
gayest. A quiet day down at the old
mill is the program for others while an
excursion is billed for the lovers of such
attractions. A few will content them
selves at home, read the Declaration OF
Independence ?" and mediate upon the
glorious thought of independence and
liberty. The lesson for the day any
where is-It is not enough to sit down
and remain inert-to accomplish great
results we must possess untirine perse-
verance and Notwithstanding the long
stretch OF years our freedom still blooms
as a single summer day. "a century
full blossomed on the stem OF time"
May we never say "Peace, farewell"-
but ever have truce with all nations and
truce with God.
! find much interest is being taken in
the Montgomery-Murray race. Our
little burg has been the goal for numer-
GUS political conferences and our streets
the place for notable consultations
between prominent citizens. Numerous
political hopes and aspirations are bud
ding no doubt, in case "our man" makes
the home stretch. The daily life OF
man like Hon. A. b. Montgomery in an
Office like he has filled cannot have
failed to possess much public interest
and at the same time caused as much
comment and criticism for or against
every act is carefully sifted and laid
away to be used as weapons OF defense or
attack at the pending moment. Some
OF our strongest and most influential men
here are using said weapons for Mr..
Montgomery while others are brandish-
ing them for my friend, Mr.. David X.
Murray, mo lei of healthy mind in a
healthy body OF business, industry and
integrity of every civic virtue. A man
of a distinguished family notable for
brains aud heart. He is by far the
strongest man yet who has opposed
Judge Montgomery. We (his iriends)
all regret that he entered the race at a
