Says Thing or Two to Mr.. Irwin
Editor of The Dawson News:
noticed in your last issue that our
distinguished senator could not wait
til l had time to answer his article
in the Blade and Bludgeon, but took
an extra shot at an advertisement
which l had you to insert in your
paper. We are not surprised at him
shooting at random with his small
calibre gun, but never did we guess
that he would aim her at a paid-for
advertisement.
If this had been a Hostetters' Bit
ters ad. we might have been less sur
prised, however.
The "Kernel" thinks it wrong for
me to advertise my paper at a bar
gain price, and thinks that should
have given them away by mailing
them out promiscuously, and adds
that if we advance one reason why
the legislature should pass the in
come tax that he would pay for
enough to go round to the people
Of the district. To think that a man
has practiced law for a quarter of o
century and does not know the re-
quirements of his and other post,
offices is a thing to marvel at. Nc
editor or publisher is allowed to send
more than a very limited amount of
his papers out excepting they be sent
to bonafide subscribers. The federel
prisons are built by the government
to hold just such violators of Uncle
Sans rules and regulations. We
have no desire to go to the federal
prison. But then, no one need be
surprised at such a Kernel who
didn't know that the income tag
would not reach down into every
smokehOuse and hen coop and lay
tributive hands upon every farmer,
merchant and blacksmith. The man
who thought that Tom Jefferson and
all the other democrats of note were
advocating potato toller to pass this
way should not be censured but pit
led. AS to his spending money reck-
lessly in buying the Blade and Blud-
geon and sending it out we advise
him that his money could be better
used and would be appreciated just as
much at home if applied to his gro
Gerry bill. CD
Again with regards and regrets
1 am yours truly,
EMMETT r. SHAW.
P. S.-Regards for your igno-
rance and regrets for having to ex-
pose it.

the Senate, and Only Few Are
Trying to Get Up a Rucus.
FORT GAINES, Ca, May 9th,
1910.-Editor of The Dawson News:
l noticed a rambling article in your
last paper with nothing much i'll it,
from me, signed by R. G. McAllister
of this city. 1t seems that Mr.. Nc
Allister wants to impress upon the
people Of Randolph and Terrell coun-
ties that they should have say as
to who Clay county presents as her
choice for state senator Mr.. Nc
Allister has written cards before
Nobody in Clay county takes him
seriously, but someone outside might
on account of not being acquainted
with the gentleman.
He wrote a card against Rodden-
berry in his last race, and caused
this county save about 100, his (Mc-
Allister's) man getting the great
number of SO votes.
He says it sounds good to say to
the citizenship of Terrell and Ran
dolph that I am the choice of Clay
county. Of course that sounds good.
1t sounds good anywhere in Georgia
to be the choice for an honor of the
white-faced citizenship of the county
in which you live.
The whole thing in a nutshell is
this: 1t is Clay county's time to
name the senator. Randolph named
hers and we took him, and Terrell
named hers and we took him. 1t is
Clay's time, and Clay has named me
and there are few down here who
would like to control the senatorship
against the wishes of the people of
this county Every white man who
would run had right to enter the
contest for Clays choice. carried
Clay last time, and will carry it next
time. Would not have my county's
senatorship against her peoples will.
Of course anybody has right to
announce and run in August that
wants to. If they are not satisfied
then, under the law, they can run in
October. The white people of the
three counties will stand, feel sure,
by myself as Clay county's standard
bearer, no matter if some disgruntled
person does want to bolt and run in
dependent of Clay county's action.
l am not afraid if they want to
abolish the rotary plan to stand on
my merits in this district, but l feel
entitled to the weight given me by
being presented by my county til
the rotary system is abolished. Yours
truly, EMMETT r. SHAW.
