THE DIVISION OF COUNTY

there were not more than so people AZ

from the city of Hawkinsville, and that
they are the same people who have been
lighting the movement all the time. -
There is no widespread opposition to
the movement in the old part of Pulaski

Every voter in Pulaski county knew
or could have known by the merest in
quiry, that 1 stood In my race for
the division Of the county
After last years attempt in the legis-
lature, II became the main issue in the
campaign ea
THE statements IN regard to the sentf-
ment in the county regarding the move-
ment, are entirely misrepresented in the
dispatch. Fully 80 per cent of the peo-
pie in the eastern section of the county
have shown themselves by petition ano
by expression to be in favor of the move-
ment for division. The people in the ter
ritory outside Of Cochran are far more
in favor Of 1t, If possible, than the peo-
pie in the town of Cochran.
AS to the doubt concerning my resa-
dence In Pulaski county. 1t is very queer
that the particular people who support
ed me In my race before the new coun-
~ issue came up, and are now opposing
me on account OF that Issue. have been
so long in finding 1t out 1 have liveo
