Says the Marion Democrat:
"A crazy man was apprehended by
Sheriff Gardens on Muddy Greek Mon
day morning and brought to town and
placed in jail He gives his name as
Houston and his incoherent utterances
indicate that he is from Mitchell county"
Is it because OF the excessive Republi-

emit? If so it's logic is unimpeachable.
