KIM REVIEWS HIS RECENT RACE.
And Makes Some Patriotic Remarks.

Il Card OF Thanks to the geo
pie of Greene County from T.. X
Daughdrill.
AS the politica. campaign is oyer
aud settled, which | am proud of and
to know that every thing is quiet
and still once again, and for myself
have not words however strong and
expressive to begin to convey to the
voters oil Greene County my appre-
citation for the liberal and honorable
support that they favored me with in
the last primary on August 22nd and
hope the day may come when can
return and prove to those who cast
their lot with me in more appreci-
alive way than this. But at present
this is the best that | can do for
them.
| noticed in the issue of the Herald
before the last primary that my
friend Green said that he had the as
surance OF carrying every box in the
county even his opponents home
box, but if he will take notice, at my
old home box | got 20 to his 3, and
at my present home box | got 60 to
his 80 and that | only lacked 5 of
carrying his home box. only make
mention of this to call attention to
his prophecy which was before the
votes were cast but now | have the
actual votes for my guide | make
this statement for no criticism at all,
Its all over row. | only missed out
of the votes that were cast % OF win
ming and can assure the good peo-
pie OF G reene County tlat | am eX-
ceedlngly proud of the 374 votes that
received, and | hold no hard feel
ings towards those who saw best to
vote tor my opponent.
So friends don't worry because
your neighbor may differ from your
political views for yet he may be just
as honest in his convictions as you
are in yours, as this is a free country
to all tax payers where freedom is
one Of the biggest and broadcast foun-
dations and stepping stone to our
government And YOU may be sure
that there would be a quick end TO
our form of government without it.
Its good TO be rational, patriotic and
good natured. Stand by our convic-
tionS and let your neighbor stand by
his if ne is disposed to so do.
can truthfully say in spite oil
some hard things that were said a
bout me (but glad to say they have
proven untrue) that ] have neve-
hurled any words in anger. Many
times on | went in sadness bat spoke
kind words in return and never il
this world brought any thing bu.
gladness.
| wish to thank the good ladies o.
Greene County for their kindness
and hospitality that they showed me
while on my political tour over the
County. In my estimation they arc
the choicest gift God ever gave
to man.
Well Mr. Editor as this piece is
. getting rather lengthy and penned
by dead candidate Qor this time,
with light purse of course, after a
bout 22l barbecues and 5 months
heat in the political rank, will close
with many thanks for past favors
you have rendered me as well as the
rest of my good friends.
With best wishes to the newly e.
! lected politicians. 1t may be | may
warm the political ranks again al
some future day. ! am as ever,
The peoples friend,
+. KIM DAUGHDRIII4.
