Occasionally We hear of a politician
pledging the voters of whole counties
for certain candidates for office without
ever consulting the voters about the
matter. When we get that law providing
that all candidates be nominated in

make it possible for one or more men to

Hon. ID. E. McIver, Moore countys

Of the State Senate from Moore and

The S. A. L. people have ordered the
steps in the cut in front of the Hotel Bon
Air removed. One of the town commits
sioners has notified the section master,
Mr.. Whit King, that he must not re-

section finds three new ties belonging to

they are thus used. Conflicting statements

Matters of vital interest to the people
of the State will be considered and acted
upon by the Legislature to be elected next
November, and great care should be eX-

August to nominate candidates and be-
tween now and that time the people will
have ample time to consider the claims
of the aspirants for office. The best men
to be had should be placed on guard.
