What promises to be the most bril-
liant debate of the present campaign
will be held next Saturday at Mt.
Pleasant between H. P. Figuers, OF the
local bar, and the well known Patter-
son leader, DR.. E. A. Timmons.
Arrangements for the debate were
made Thursday, when the local cam
paign committee having in charge the
interests of the Independent candi-
dates were notified by Mr.. F1guers
that he would accept their invitation
to speak at Mt. Pleasant. Looking
about for a suitable man to uphold the
Patterson game, in order to make the
contest absolutely fair and to stimu-
late additional interest; it was but
natural that DR.. Timmons should be
selected as the man invited to meet
Mr.. Figuers.
On account of his prominence az
author of the liquor plank in the Pat
terson platform, and his ability as an
orator, DR.. Timmons is the propec de-
fender of the Patterson faith in this
county. He has received the comfort
ing assurance from State headquar-
tiers that his speeches are meeting
with official sanction, and mas downed
those detractors of his ability in his
own ranks who through petty Jealous
les have tried to prevent his eagle
from soaring in oratorical flights.
In his debate with Harvey H. Han
nah, the eloquent defender of the free
and untrammelled judiciary, and In his
stirring address delivered Monday at
the court house, DR.. Timmons has
thoroughly recovered his old time form
as forensic speaker, and is amply |
able to cope with any adversary. Not
since the days of his famous lecture |
has he been in better physical and men, |
tai condition, part of which he as
cribes to his thoughtfulness in cutting |
out COCO colas.
Mr.. Figuers is a champion worthy |
of the steel of even DIR. Timmons. He
delivered an impromptu address at the
mass meeting held here some weeks
ago. and on the Fourth of July met |
Judges Barton, Maiden and Gholston
In debate at Franklin, Tenn showing
up the hollow pretenses of the Patter-
son platform candidates, and is thor
oughly informed as to the issues OF
the present campaign
The speaking will begin at 1 o'clock
and an equal division Of time will be
granted. DR.. Timmons will probably
open the debate and have rejoinder.
Both speakers are courteous gentle
men and will observe all the niceties
Of the parliamentary code.
Other speas<ings.
Between now and the fourth Of Au
gust it is probable that the Independ-
ents will send out speakers to all the
districts of the county. DR.. Timmons
will probably meet these speakers in
joint debate, and it is hoped that Co
lumbia will be favored with one OF
these clashes at an early date.
