Well, the beautiful sun has once
more shown its brilliant rays in the
eastern continent and set in the wes-
tern slopes after so much continued
rain and cloudy weather. hear a
few moving machines running today,
which illustrates the old saying,
''Make hay while the sun shines. -
never saw so many candidates in
all my born days as have appeared at
my Office this week, both democratic
and republican. They remind me of a
swarm of bees just after storm.
When the sun begins to shine they be-
gin to hustle around and everyone was
so busy canvassing he didn't have
time to stay all night with us. If
they all run as fast over the country
as those candidates did up here it's 60
ing to be a hard matter to confine
them in the borders of the county in
which they are running. l believe
they will nearly have to run sideways
to keep from flying
/ never received as much campaign
literature from all kinds of political
parties as have got through the mail
for the last ten days. in my life, and
it beats the Jews how they are cutting
and carving up one another. The
Scriptures teach us that the time will
come when you can't detect winter
from summer only by the leaves on the
trees of the forest, and so, by Joe l
believe the time will come, if not
here now. that you can't tell repub-
lican from democrat only by the leaf
and badge on the lapel of his coat and
the platforms they manufacture to run
on. Boys, don't get excited or scared
if this period of time confronts you to-
day, for verify believe it's up to you.
I will give you political recipe how
to make political soup these hard
times. Kill an old rooster that is very
tough, hang it up SO it will make a
shadow, put your kettle directly under
the shadow of the rooster and boil the
shadow Is minutes in water and it's
ready to put on the political table for
use, and you may boil this shadow
three or four times before it entirely
loses its strength.
Roy and Eugene Coppinger, of Dun
lap, are visiting their brothers-in-law,
Frank and Willie White, and will
probably stay over till fall and go to
school at the Chapel.
We have barrel of candidates for
Justice of the Peace. Some have been
standing candidates for number OF
years. There is only one way to get
rid of them and that is to vote them
out of existence.
This community ON the east side OF
Sequachee river was proud that W. Il.
White was again elected to the office
of Notary Public. This will be eigh-
teen years in succession he has served
the people in that capacity and said
he wanted to thank the members of the
county court many times for SO doing,
and he would return the compliment
in the sweet by and by.
There is list of the candidates bill
ed for the August election in End dis
trict for Justice of the Peace SO far
mentioned: Charley Holloway, Jas.
Price, J. w. Raulston T. T. Morri-
son, Ben Condra, Mat Griffith, j.
Grayson and a number of others that

for miles around.
The writer from Needmore said in
his article that Lum and Louis Thorn
as went to Nashville last week and
then said in the same article they
went to Dunlap. We are at loss to
know which place they went to, if
they went to either
There is some talk rumored around
here that there will be saw mill from
Sequachee located here to cut hickory
timber and other stuff for the market.
I advocate such move as that, and
we need very badly just such an enter
prise as this to locate here.
