Rather Windy.

Some newspaper men are inclined to
stretch the truth. In writing of a cy
clone out west, one of them said it
blew all the slaves cut of whiskey
barrel and left nothing but the bung
hole, changed the day of the week,
turned a well inside out anda cellar up
side down, moved the township line,
blew mortgage off farm, the cracks
out of fence and the wind out of a
politician.

In our columns this morning appears
the formal announcement of the candi-
dacy of Mr., W. E. Sykes, for the Office
of Mayor fthe city
Mr.. Sykes. than whom there is no
one in Marietta more highly thought
of. asks the honor of a nomination at
the hands CT the Republican city con-
vention to be held at an early day-a
convention that has been called by
Republicans generally throughout the
city, who realize that a city largely
Republican should be governed by the
Republican party; that primarily the
Office should be made TO be responsible
for its conduct to a party. The con-
vention idea is bound to bring a good
man and Mr.. Sykess name is a point
er which bears us out in the statement.

A gam Victorious.

In game remarkable for hard
batting and loose fielding the Sequa-
chee base ball team defeated the
Coppinger Cove team by the score of
40 to y Saturday.
The game was started with Sequa-
chee at the bat and they succeeded
in hammering out l6 runs. The
fielding on both sides was ragged
and while there were lots Of flies and
grounders very few were caught or
stopped, but those who enjoyed see
ing the ball in the air all the time
were favored in this respect. Home
runs and base hits as in the games of
of last week were plentiful. rhe
Cove boys were assisted by a catcher
from Jasper who did well.
