Convention Fight.

D..
"It will be a convention fight to
the finish, and we shall win," said
a Cooke leader last night at Mr..
Cookies headquarters when asked
about the apparent success of
Hon. J. NJ. Gudger, Jr., in the
tenth congressional district. -
On the either hand, Mr.. Gudger,
when interview by a reporter exs
hibited letters an dtelegrams from
practically every precinct in the
district, the majority of which
were signed by the chairman and
secretary, and stated, ''I have
153 1-2. votes, of the 297 votes IN
the district convention, and it
only requires 143 IL votes to nom-
mate me on the first ballot. I am
certainly nominated a sthe Demo
cratic candidate in. the congress
siOnal race"
Mr.. Gudger's Claims.
The above represents the Dem
Ocratic congressional situation at
late hour last night. Practically
every voting precinct in the dis
trict which includes thirteen
counties has been heard from and
Mr.. Gudger leads by various ma
jOrities in most Of the precin =.
The fight no wis for control Of the
majority Of the convention votes
and IN his statement last night
Mr.. Gudger submitted his claims
stO the convention vote with
few precincts to be heard from.
The votes he claims are as follows:

(3) The letter is not marked private, nor
.'confdential", although the request to return
implies that Bell and Graham did not want
it made public.
Were they not engaged in violating the
law, injuriously to all the people, | would re-
spect their wishes
But as they are doing wrong, at the ex-
pense of the public, their desire for secrecy,
while as natural as that of others who are
violating the laws, is not more deserving of
consideration.
Men and Brethren! Do you understand
why the sectarian editors and publishers keep
sending their papers to folks who do not
want them?
They do it in order that they may claim a
large circulation, and thus impose on the ad-
vertisers.
Does it speak-well for ''the religious press?

Seeing Snakes Again.!

John Lee, late of Boston, Massachusetts,.
has an unlimited capacity for coniuring up
ghosts, spectres, hobgoblins, haunts, chimeras
dire, and mearthly visions. It would really
seem-to judge from Johns letters and pro-
nnclamentos that he is subject to severe,
intermittent attacks of verbal cholera morbus.
HIS most recent proclamation appears in
Ducks quietly expiring paper. The headline
selected by Johnsey reads as follows:
"FARMERS ARE BEING BUNCOED
AGAIN."
Now, Johnesey, who buncoed the farmers,
before? When and where were they bun
coed? What are you talking about, when
you say that the farmers are being buncoed,
again?
In this most recent of Johns violent and
ungrammatical roars, he denounces a lot Of
"lmposters", who are selling guano, and
writing letters to "tte secular press'
John says that these men are "defrauders
who are trying to destroy the Union.
If John and Duckworth vouch for an At
lanta Produce Warehouse, and thus cause a
lot of loyal Union men to lose poultry, eggs.
butter, potatoes, ETC., it is treachery to the
Union to condemn "the little bunch. Ell?
Ii Duck and Barron help themselves to
Union funds, and are criticised for 1.-THE
critics are trying to destroy the Union, are
they?
If John gets whipped "behind closed DOORS,
and, by forgery, keeps the Locals from learn
ing that he a0as whipped, it is an attack on
the Union to expose Johns moral to1rpitude,
is it?
"The little bunch" went astray-far astray
and they will try in vain to escape by MAX
ing Patriotic Noises
D. j. Neill is petering out in Texas; and

You feel the ground-sweu of popular
wrath against that damnable Aldrlch bill,
, don't yOu?
You have walked up, at last to the fact that
the millions IN America are tired OF being
robbed by the thousands, h0Uent yOu?

old Greenbacker and Populist was not suf

I'D zeones! You have flung him to the
roaring lions, hoping to appease their appe
titles, and their wrath.
1t qc0nt do, Gentlemen: IT WON'T DO!
The sacrifice of Cannon is nothing to us,
so long as that INTERNAL NEW TARIFF
IS on us-a tariff whose entire character is
displayed in its tax of so per cent. on auto
mobiles and 165 per cent. on blankets.
REPEAL THAT DIABOLICAL LAW!
Don't yOu dare to come home until yOu
haze done 1t. You can do it, and you MUST
do it.
Put on It's passage simple resolution, re-
pealing the Payne-Aldrich, in toto, and re-
enacting the Dingley bill, q0ith q IS per cent

not be revolutionary. It will afford great re-

manufacturers.

"There lies before me, as / write", another
letter, sent out by my lawless Brethren Bell
and Graham.
These worthy citizens edit, publish and en-
deavor to circulate paper which they con-
slider quite religious. The name of said paper
is, The Christian Indeu. However, people of
caution and clrcumspection, not wishing to
commit themselves too far in this matter,
simply call it, The Indew-which is altogeth-
er the safer thing to do
The epistle in question bears date March
10, 1910. So you can see for yourself it's no
"old secondhand corpse.
According to the invariable custom of
these amiable men, their letter begins:
"Dear Bro :"
They even write to me that way; and then
follow up the Dear Bro" address with a
dose that might have COME from men who
were no kin to me at all.
But let us move on:
There are four alternative requests which
Brothers Bell and Graham, in this case.
make of ''Dear Bro" These are set out with
beautiful precision and, strange as it may
seem, they follow one another, in straight
line, like four pigs going to the plum tree
First breaking to "Dear Bro" the painful
news that he owes them $3.50, they begin
most respectfully to beg" of him that he do
one of the four following things:
(2) Pay S.. "And we will balance YOUR
account" If not able to do that, then
(3) Sign the enclosed note for the debt
If not able or willing to do either of the
three, then
az "Retu1 this letter to u.s."
Well, if that isn't enough to make an un-
dertaker laugh The fourth request, freely
translated, might be rendered thus:
1--WE don't want this to fall into Tom Wat
sons hands,"
(l) Consider the business acumen which
manifests itself in this letter. E'You owe us
$3.50: please pay it, but if you don't, we will
let you off for S.; and if you don't paw that
sign the enclosed note. But, if you do not
wish to do even so much as to give your note
for the debt, just consider it settled, and re-
turn us our silly letter."
I'd give 80 cents to know how much of the
Filthy they got as the result of that kind of
clrcularlzng; You could safely wage your
best mule against a brass button, that it did
not pan out enough to pay for the stamps used.
(2) Think of the violation of the Postal
laws revealed in this letter. The friend who
sends it to me writes that Bell and Graham
have been continuing The Imdeu for more
than three gears, without renewal. He saws
that he has written them, repeatedly to stop
it but they won't. He told the Post Master
that he refused the paper but The Imdeu
came to the p 0. just the same.
Now what do you think of that way of
doing business? It's violation of the law.
It's not treating the people right It's add
ing enormously to Governmental expenses

There has been a decided change in
sentiment among farmers in the past

that the yield in this county this year
will he about as large as last year, al
though every man who talks about it
qualities his prediction by adding. III

weeks more of warm weather would put

the cause Of a lot OF soft corn this winter.
The mile OF model road north of town
that has been under construction for the

day afternoon and is now open to travel.
1t is still some what soft, but few days
travel will place it in perfect condition.
The roed has already been described in
the NOnpareil. Looking over it from the
bridge crossing the Warm Slough it
presents pretty appearance. the gently
sloping grade being as smooth as floor.
The highway will doubtless become very
popular for tesmsters and autoists. The
construction OF the model road and the
presence of the experts has undoubtedly
created great deal of interest in i'm

will profit immeasursbly as q result.
Already township officials in other Sec
