larviIIe to attend bis private affairs.
He will resume the stump in the
spring. He says: "You may tell
the people that / am delighted with
my campaign up to date, and feel
confident OF the final result. I
have made 103 speeches in various
parts Of the state. including the
Delta. and have spoken to more
than 10000 people, large per-
centage Of whom are voters, and at
no place where l have spoken have,
! received the slightest rebuff on
mistreatment at the hands of the
people, but on the other hand, their
courtesy and hospitality have been
most, liberal and lavishly extended
to me. The attacks and criticisms
Of the opposition and the news
papers representing it have caused
the people to become more anxious
to hear my side Of the contro-
yersy.''

able sureties to 20 on his bond for
release.
Coon was indicted about four
years ago on charge of false pre-
tense and succeeded up to the pres
ent time in dodging the officers,
but Deputy Sheriff Greer got on
his trail sometime ago and at last
landed him behind the bars.
Deputy Greer left yesterday
morning on the IL o'clock train for
Genesee. La, where he expects to
arrest two men whom he believes
were implicated with Ed Haymon,
John Barron, Floyd SeIicks, and
Gene McCaffrey in the recent num-
erous robberies in the southern
part Of the county and also Brook
haven. If he gets the men he is
after, this will wind up the crowd
which it is believed were in part
nership on the different ''jobs"
pulled off.
Mr.. McGehee, of the McGehee
Mercantile Co., of Summit, called
at the Sheriff's office this week and
identified a lot Of the stolen mer-
chandise held there. which had
been captured when some of the
above named parties were arrested.
and allowed to take it back to
Summit.
The Deputy Sheriff stated to a
representative of The Leader that
he would be glad to have a member
of the firm of Flowers & Carruth at
Johnston Station and also of the
Norfield Mercantile Co. come up TO
Brookhaven and claim their share
of the plunder, as he states that he
has sufficient evidence in the case
without holding their part of the
stolen goods any longer.

Ihe present primary system is un-

fortunate enough to be elected I shall
exercise my efforts to agitate
change in the present system.
Every public Office holder is serv.
ant of the people and should refrain

virtue of his Office, but should exer-
else his utmost efforts TO rthe welfare
