We have never heard one logical
reason advanced why a Democrat
should scratch his ticket and vote for
a Republican. The Democrats on the

there is not one reason why q Demo
crat in Iron county should scratch his
ticket.
Rev. T. F. Marshall, the popular
pastor of the Presbyterian church here,
has resigned his position to accept the

his enlarged field. He expects te
leave in about a month.
We ask the voter to carefully an6
prayerfully consider these assistant

There has been a great lot OF lynn
going on the past few months intimal
ing that there are irregularities in tn
Collectors Office. The intimations ar
utterly without foundation, and MI
O'Neal has made as faithful an
efficient an officer as the county eve
had. But we admire the gall of tn
Republicans OF Iron county talking
irregularities" Why, when the R,
publicans were in charge in tn.
county the Collector tore the leave
out of the tax book and settled wit
the court on his own figures.
