10 the Editor Of I ne Robesonian.
AS quite a number of men
have announced themselves as
candidates for the various county
offices, subject to the action of the
Democratic party, and as perhaps
there are others to come. | desire
through the columns of The Rob
esonian to suggest as Senator to
represent Robeson county in the
next General Assembly, that
good Christian man, K M. Barnes,
of Barnesvil!e. Mr.. Barnes is no
stranger in Robson county,
While he has no official record to
be threshed before the people,
and needs no vindication at their
hands for past misdeeds, am
sure he has the respect and conf
dence of all who know him either
personally Or by reputation. |
have no assurance that Mr..
Barnes would accept this nomina-
ton if it were rendered him; I
think though if the democrats #
Robson county should elect him
as their representative they
would have no cause for regret.

well-recognized institution doing
such creditable work in helping

Pleasure Seekers go to Mr..
Lemons Mill.

Several buggy loads of Lum-
bertOn's pleasure seekers drove
out to Lemons mill for a while
Tuesday afternoon. The hour
appointed for starting was four
O'Clock, but on account of a
little thunder cloud floating over
this section at that time
the party was delayed
an hour. So at five o'clock
the buggies were in line and
after an hour and a half drive
the mill was reached, which is 8
miles east of town. The crowd
went under the name Of a fishing
party, but on account of negli-
gence or forgetfulness no one
carried any tackel, and the only
bait carried was of a nature
more suitable to the taste of the
finless or walking fish than to
the swimming kind as it consist
ed of deyeled eggs, pickles, crack
ers, fried chicken, cake and
sandwiches of many kinds. The
lunch or bait heretofore referr-
ed to was spread under the shed
of the mill house about sun set
and failed in no sence of the
word to attract the attention of
the anxious "nibblers". Water
melons and grapes were plentiful
and a member of the party stroll
ed out through the edge of a
farmers peach orchard and on
account of some magnetic power
a half dozen peaches followed
him back, which added to the
variety of the feast.
A rifle and a gun or so were
carried, and there was much
shooting, but the only deaths
giving testimony of good marks
manship were a bull frog and a
few leather-winged bats.
The crowd left the mill about 8
O'Clock and arrived in town at
9:3O, and so far as has been
learned no one or couple was
lost.
DR.. and Mrs. Robert F. Gra-
ham chaperoned the party.
