A Good Set of County Officials.

Well we know who are to be our
officers for another two years and
we are satisfied all the gentlemen
elected for county officers will give
us the very best service. Sheriff
Bickham, Circuit Judge Hamilton
and Circuit Clerk Sanderson haye
all been re elected and this in it.
self shows that the people retain
confidence in their official manage
ment of affairs. The newly elected
officers are Messrs. L. Winham as
Assessor, ]. ]. Peavy as Treasurer,
j. R. Robinson as Coroner aud
Messrs. Smither, Hudgins and Hig-
ginbotham are our Justice of the
Peace. They are all honorable men,
competent and will make good Of
fcers. The Constable, Mr.. j. W.
McFadden, is a new man as peace
officer, but he has the appearance
and the reputation of being a man
who will make a good officer. We
are satisfied that Miller county will
be splendidlY Oficered by the selec-
tion made in the candidates. OF
course those men defeated were
good men and all would have made
good officers and their defeat was
no stain upon their ability or char
acter. Mr.. Peyton our new legis-
lator is a good Christian man, and
he cannot be brlbed or talked into
voting for an unpopular measure
and we think he will be always
found on the right side of all ques-
tions.

b. Changed His Vote.

Mr.. Brig Rodgers was in the city
yesterday, and said, speaking of the
late primary. 81 had fully made up
my mind to vote for Fletcher for
Governor, and | believe all of my
neighbors had. Just a few days be.
fore the election, Davis had his
speech, the one he made at Center
Point in print, scattered over the
county. One of these fell into my
hands. i read it carefully, and af-
ter getting through, l said, this is
certainly the man Fam looking for
to be our Governor. l did not stop
at this but got on my horse and rode
around and told the neighbors to
vote for JEFF, and l believe from the
returns that most of them did," 1t
is said of this speech, that 1t was a
close copy of the speeches made by
Governor Hogg, of Texas, with more
added to it, and that it was so ad-
droitly written that as a vote
catcher, it could not be combatted,
even by logic or reason and no one
could enter the race with a show OF
winning against such demagogical
document in the hands of not only
the farmer, but bankers, lawyers,
workmeu of all classes. Davis has
proven what a man can do when he
trims his sails for piratical politi-

waves lap and splash in its triumphant
buoyance. 1t is decidedly a wooded
lake, and unlike many lakes, its shores
are beautiful. without the fiat and
swanpy surface. The shores at inter-
walls are made the more beautiful by
the gentle slope of the bank
which leads from the forests to the
waters edge, while at other places the
banks are almost perpendicular, the
trees growing out over the waters edge
casting their shadows out upon the
water. making fascinating natural pict-
ures that eyes love to feast upon. The
wide gravel beaches make it the bath

majestic in its sway and the waves come

celebrating some great victory; and

and placid as can be and not a ripple

patrons of the Chautauqua laugh with
scorn at old Soils penetrating rays; as
they seat themselves beneath the sway
