Seeking Office.

Evergreen, March t3.--{Specia1 Core
spondenee)-In a former article from me
1t is made to appear that Mr.. Fra nix
Simmons is populist candidate for mar
shall of this district. Mr.. Simmons is a
republican. but was supported in the race
last year for representative from this
county by the populists and republicans.
He was an original Mckinley man and
voted for him at the st. Louis conven-
ton, and 1t is as a republican and not as
a populist that he seeks the appointment.
/ have learned since, that T. w. Curry,
his Brewton opponent. is and always has
been democrat, and that when he APP
piled for the marshars place under Cleve-
land he made an affidavit that he had
never voted any other than democratic
ticket. 4l.. +.--,l
Mr.. Simmons has been a republican for
a long time. He is al the head of the
party in this community. and is the only
white man in the county that has ever
taken any interest in political matters.

The man who in few short years works
himself to death for the sake of his family
commits most foolish sin Nothing in
this world is ever gained by being in too
big hurry. The man who takes things
reasonably slow and easy comes out ahead
in the long run, lives long, en,oyaoie he,
and leaves competence for his family.
Moreover, men who take the right care OF
their health can safely do double the
amount of work that unhealthy men can
stand. The man who neglects his health
