BLUEFIELD IS TODAY IN THE HANDS OF THE RID MIN
Thomas Is Eligible
For Mayoralty

The question of Mr.. Thomas
eligibility as referred to in the
GOOD CITIZENS BULLE-
TIN of yesterday is merely a
technical point that had been
carefully considered.
Mr. Thomas has the signed
opinion of three of the ablest
lawyers in Mercer County. on
this point, and they inform him
in the most emphatic terms
that he is eligible beyond any
question of doubt.
Mr.. Thomas don't go to battle
without the necessary weapons
of offence and defense. He had
anticipated this attack long ago,
and has been prepared to meet
it from the beginning. But he
did think his good church
friends, and others, who pub
lished to the world yesterday
in their Bulletin that THEY
ARE AGAINSTDIRTY ELEC-
TION PRACTICES" would not
resort to old time political
tricks of this sort to do a fellow
citizen an injury in an attempt
to deceive the honest public.
They undoubtedly know that
he is eligible. beyond doubt, or
they would not have waited
until twelve hours before the
opening of the polls to have
given out n misleading state
ment, but would have attempt
ed to use it as campaign thun-
der Immediately after nomina-
tions were made.
These good peoples interpre-
tatiOn of the law is very much
like their Interpretation of the
standard by which all people
should live. Exceedingly erro-
neous in many particulars, es-
pecially when it comes to state
craft.

Green and Gaynor Will not BE At
Once Taken to the Federal
Prison.

Macon, Ga, April 3O.-Judge EN-
ory Speer granted an extension of
time for the removal of Greene and
Gaynor to the Atlanta Federal prison
to May 5th, today on account OF the
delay in the comparison bill of ex-
ceptions with the records in Saw
annah, now under charge of District
Attorney Edwin.
II is generally believed that the bill
will go up and that Greene and Gay

the procedure is pending in the Blbb

the delay and there is little sign OF
impatience. They have made them
selves comfortable in their temporary
quarters.
