ANOTHER INSULT.

Last week great light dawned up
on the local option contest, and
they became brilliant set, at an ex-
pense of perhaps more than $50, the
men who want to retain saloons in
Caruthersville and hold the county
dry, sent out a great lot of registered
letters, all addressed to Hayti en-
quiring as to votes in the local option
election. But these wise fellows
seems to forget that people who vote
at Hayti get mail at various places
Caruthersville, Game, Braggadocio,
Pascola, Stanley, ETC., and some of
them never get mail, or go to the post
Office. The news that the registers
were coming was sounded far in adj
vanc, however, and while some of
them are being delivered, the majority
of the people addressed will not be
quick to accept the missivss, as silent
contempt seems best for all such
efforts.

UNIV ARRANTED

In the petition asking for contest
of the local option election, is a list
of 4s names, alleged to have voted
dry, but whose ballots were counted
wet. Out of this list of As, we find 80
who actually voted wet, and 10 who
are supposed to have voted dry.
But why, and how, do Ward, Col
Inns, Sheppard, Mckay, ct. al, know
how anyone voted? Elsewhere we
publish the list of the names, and un-
der their own signatures, how they
voted, that the people of the county
may see the trap that the little
bunch at Charlottesville has led them
into.

paper are going to trade with those

Poplar Bluff n-Democrat: In
a recent speech G. w. Michael boldly
made the assertion that he would un-
der no consideration support Mr..
Russell should that gentleman defeat
him for the nomination. If this is Mr..
Michael's conception of democracy,
it is at variance with that held by the
Citizen-Democrat and nine-tenths of
the voters of this district. How can
he hope for support from the party
when he boldly asserts that he will
not be bound by the action of the
voters unless he is the nominee? And
what is the use of party organization
if he refuses to abide by the decision
of majority of the voters?

The people of Penliscot county
should not lose sight of the fact that
the contestants, bringing the action to

are bringing the action against PENIS

bound to defend against this action,
the cost of which on the county's part,
will be paid out of the county treas

Portageville Critic: The Hayti
Herald seems to pass through the
great local option contest without a
scratch, save a pin-scratch admins
tered by preacher after the election
was over. 1t does seem that the
ministers would learn to preach
Christ ard His crucitixion, and keep
out of politics. The church will never
occupy the exalted position Christ in
tended it to, until the men who are
hired to preach that, solicit men in
kindness to come unto Him.

Clarkton Courier. Many of the
voters who were, and are, dry, do not
wish to see the saloons in Caruthers-
vile and the other sections of the
county dry. 1t must, in their judg-
ment, be all dry or all wet. And
lastly, the rest of the county is sore at
Charlottesville for stealing the county
seat from Hayti several years ago,
and for having. as they believe,
stolen enough votes to retain it iour
years ago.
