nominees are all good men and will
make efficient officers. They were Sc
lected after a thorough canvass of the
county by the several candidates.
They have been declared the nominees
of the Democratic party and are enti-
tied TO the votes of every man who
participated in the primary. Demo
Gratis cannot afford to court disorgan-
ization, the fruits of which would last
for years. The gentlemen nominated are
capable and trustworthy and the inter-
est of the people will rot suffer at their
hands.
The present city administration is
moving up on all lines. Mayor Brumby

DR.. S. D. Rambo, of this place, very
generously sent us Monday crate of
his fine Elberta peaches, very large
and luscious. He has raised some as
fine peaches this season as has been
placed on the market. His orchard is
one of the largest and best kept in this
section. We thank him sincerely for
his appreciated remembrance. May
his peaches be profitable and may he
live to gather many crops of them.
The largest Elberta peaches we have
seen this year were sent to us by Mr.. w.
J. M. Hames. They were as big as a
common mans fist. Red and yellow
skin and luscious meat. He is the
champion raiser so far as we have seen.
Thanks, Will, and may golden fruit fill
your pockets full of yellow gold.
