TIE NEGRO NOT IN IT.

Things are happening in this state
in the way of political Vaccination
that are attracting widespread atten-
ton. Never before in the history Of
partisan politics has there been such
a general upheaval or departure from
time-honored tenets and dogmas Of
the faith. Democrats and Republi-
cans are jolly-good-fellows well met,
and they are hobnobbing and throw
bouquets at each other in way that
is enough to make the most cynical
smile and the serious, who imagine
they scent danger, sit up and take
cognizance of the situation.
There is no denying the fact that
the political muddle in this state is
one that will take years to settle. A
new condition has arisen that will
require a readjustment of party lines.

Ford had been a member of the church
for several years. Her life was that
of true Christian Now that she has
departed this life, we may say,
Sweet flower, transplanted to a cline,
Where never comes the blight of

For she lived such a beautiful life
until she carried sunshine wherever

Dear as the spot where Christians

passing of the Roosevelt administra-

is significant and means that more
than spasmodic efforts are being made
to land the old Volunteer State in

Gates the course of the political wind.
