ELECTED SHERIFF.
DR.. j. w. Nance Newberry Boy
Elected Sheriff Columbia Coun-
ty, Fla.

The Herald and News is always
pleased to note the success Of New
berry people wherever they 60, and
in whatever field they labor. The
following is therefore published with
pleasure. DR.. J. w. Nance is son
of the late j. *. G. Nance who was at
one time auditor Of Newberry coun-
ty and is Il brother of Mr. j. d. Nance
Of this county. His mother and other
relatives also live in Ncwberry:
Editor The Herald and News:
Believing that true merit has much
reward in the appreciation and pleas
ure felt by the friends and acquain-
tanccs of the deserving, l am writing
this bit Of news for the benefit of the
friends and admirers of Dr.. j. w.
Nance, who WAS born and reared in
your county.
In June 10th he was, by Il primary
election ct Democrats, nominated as
sheriff of Columbia county, Florida,
for Il term Of four years, commencing
January LIST, 1909. This nomination
amounts to an election. The Office of
sheriff in said county pays, easily,
from $3o00.00 to $G000.00 per annum.
This Was generous recognition Of a
| Ncwbcrry boy. Our people discover
cd i'll DR.. j. w. Nance. as soon as he
arrived in our sunny land, a hearty,
genial, popular and we'll equipped
physician. but we have recently asccr-
t:incd that he is Il record breaker in
Il political race.
When nature was distributing cncr-
"y and all the qualities that go to
make up the successful man and poll
tlcian. she handed Jack Nance such
budget of equipment that very
old. thoroughly organized and hereto
fore undrfcatcd political ring has
come to grief and defeat through the
inccSsamt labor and mcrilorious sue
cess Of DR.. Nance in his wonderful
race for sheriff.
II began us Il handicap for our man,
for there were three other candidates.
who were well started when he enter
ed the race. He was further hobblcd
by his many friends who feared that
if he were elected as sheriff he would
retire from the practice of his pro-
fcssion. The first heat was done with
an old thoroughbred, who had never
lost race, clear and ahead, with our
favorite just neck ahead of the pres
cnt incumbent. The track was clear
ed and the next and final heat was
done by Cone, a native Of this coun-
ty, and Nance, and the finish showed
that DR.. Nance was an easy winner
This office i'll our county is very
| responsible and honorable one and we
feel that our people arc fortunate in
securing such a man to. administer
this department of our local govern
mcnt
We understand he will also con-
tlnuc. to some extent. to practice his
profession, in which he has a large
patronage.
Respectfully,

HIRED GIRL. HIRED MAN.

Considerable fuss was recently made
because an eastern millionaire mas
stopped" to marry u hired girl living
in iowa.
Why2
The girl must have graces and per-
sonal points or the millionaire would
not have chosen her. And it is safe TO
say that morally she is his equal If not
his superior.
There is no STOPPING about it.
They were on a level. or, If anything,
the hired girl was just a little above
the millionaire.
All of US in America who amount to
anything are hired people.
No doubt this millionaire Is hireu
man in charge of some big corporation.
Roosevelt is a hired man.
And so are all our senators and con-
gressmen and diplomats-seryants IN
The pay of the people.
And. fellow citizens:
One Of the things that are the matter
with this country is the growing tend
ency to look down on the man VINO
works with his hands or the woman
who works with her hands.
The tendency is devlllsh and danger
Gus.
Let us learn again that the hands
that are Scared by honest toll bear
wounds as honorable as those received
In battle. The oyeralls and the ging'
ham aprons Of labor are as honorable
as and vastly more useful than all the
martial trappings and uniforms OF war.
Let us learn again that the doctrine
, af the dignity of labor is fundamental
} to the republic. .s
| And so we say hurrah for the nireo
girl and the hired man, these two VINO
loved each other for what they were
/. End paid no attention to the accidents
Of fortunes!
