SOME PLAIN FAcTs TO BE HEEDED;
SrATEm. vt OF CONDITIONS PRESENTED

The people Of Vernon county have
an important duty to perform next
Tuesday the election Of a probate
Judge. 1t is Of the greatest Importance
that they choose wisely. No function
Of county government is 50 vital to the
citizens as that Of the official who adj
ministers upon our affairs after we have
passed away. The security of estates
rests in their prompt, intelligent and
safe handling by the man to whom the
widow and orphan must look for pro
lection and advice Should it not be,
then, OF the utmost concern to every
father and mother that a methodical.
painstaking. always on-duty servant be
chose- to administer and equalize their
gordly affairs after they have been
called by doath2
There are three candidates in the
field for county judge the present en-
cambent. D. O. Mahoney, who has held
the place for twelve years; .. Henry
Bennett, and Cyrus NJ. Butt, Junior.
AS between these gentlemen the CEN
soR has no personal or pecuniary choice.
It's attitude in the matter IS prompted
only by a desire that the peoples in
terest and lawful rights shall, in the
future, be safeguarded by the election
of a man who will attend to the official
work he is paid for doing Early In the
campaign the CENSOR expressed a pre-
ference for the election Of Mr.. Bennett,
knowing that he possessed the qualifi-
cations to make frst-class Judge and
that he takes pride in doing well and
promptly every duty assigned to him.
Mr.. BI,s entered the contest very late,
after laviI g encouraged Mr.. Bennett
to st md as candidate. Why he
adopted this latter course we have no
positive knowledge That be has no
possible chance of election seems to be
conceded. One thing is certain there
ought to be no division OF strength
among those who desire change and
that better conditions should prevail in
the administration of affairs in our
county court.
There are the best of reasons why
the present judge should not be re-
elected. He has been neglectful of his
duties by absenting himself from the
office when the public business demanded
his attention. People have been com
PEELED to make repeated trips, long dis
tances. because he could not be found
al his post, thus imposing urdue expense
and loss Of time on estates and those
engaged in their administration. There
is no denying this statement
Ia the fall of 1901 county board
committee made investigation Of Ma.
honey's official conduct and among
many other serious Irregularities named

1.-THE WOLF" HERE
 NEXT SATURDAY

Eugene Walter has written three remarkable plays. The Wolf Paid iu Full and The Easiest Way. His appearance in the ranks of America 8 playwrightls has been spectacular and if The Wolf has been his only offering, it would have reflected to his everlasting credit.
 The Wolf. with the atmosphere of the silent, boundless Canadian for- ests clinying to it, is gem of dra- matic construction and intensity. and will no Ae eXcelled by any other at traction which will come tn sea SOIL 1t has been hailed everywhere with delight. and there is no mistak- ing the genuine stamp of approval it Tlas received.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1909-11-24

You will see that Matthews, the defeated democratic nominee for mag istrate and myself ran together, al each place and that McNeil and the negro ran together.
 An analysis of this vote shows suca close parallel between the vote 2t each place in the vote cast for Nc Neil and that cast for the Negro re- publican candidate for justice of the peace, Tom, Mingea. as to leave nc uoubt in an unbiased mind that rh< same or practically the same votes were cast for each.
 This statement of the votes is .a''en from the returns of the General st.1c- ton as certified to by the E!ectio' ] Commissioners, and nine tenths of the white voters of Barraque township. will bear me out in my deductions Of course this is 8 free cC"Etrr and d man may do as he pleaSes. so lon. as he violates no law, but ever white man knows the need of parry loyalty, in this section, and when a man asks for a party nomination. ne should have clean record as t' party loyalty. and no stain of con!- vance however remote with the negro republican element in politics. ', give this statement out to the Democrats of Jefferson county, SC t..at you may judge for yourselves just how much Mir McNeil is entitled to your support.
 i have no interests as between tae other candidates, but do feel tha. any l man who asks democratic nomi- nation, at the hands of his party, should show clean party record. a"'. 1 not have even suspicion of collGaio. with negro Republicans to defeat re- yufar usrfnc cratic nominees.
