Took q Bird's-E Eye View.

An Advertiser man had the
pleasure of a bird's-eye view of
Lafayette from the roof of Pelle
rim & DeClOuet's mammoth store
Thursday. It was a pleasant
experience, and enables one to
thoroughly appreciate the fact
that Lafayette is growing. The
view down Pierce street was
very attractive, the new concrete
walks with the clean looking,
wide street showing fine and
bearing eloquent testimony that
I'VE do move" AS the eyes wept
over various parts of the town
new buildings appeared in every
direction, and the bright green
of the newly budding trees lent a
graceful charm to the houses
which seemed to nestle among
them Some of the streets
shaded with almost enfOlding
branches invitingly enticed one
to a delightful promenade.
Lafayette viewed from above
is a pretty town and it's crooked
streets add to it's attractiveness.

A vote for Col. Wiley means to be represented by @ man who stands upon a record of what he has done ana is doing.
 He does not ask your support upon what nc never did.
 However, Col. Wiley never did one thing, to wit: Col. Wiley never went over the county making speeches to negroes, urging them to go to the polls and vote or they would be dis frant hised.
 Ml Graves boasts that he never "straddled SS..e fencs," therefore his enemies do not call him a rider"
 But his friends in Montgomery say he sometimes "gets over" the fence, or "goes through a crack"
 One morning, just last week, his friends rose from a peaceful nights slumber, to find A BIG CRACK in the fence, made by a CRooknJ RAIL, and MT. Graves, with a part of his followers, grazing in a new pasture. much to their surprise and chagrin.
 From this, you should know who to vote for.
