SHALL TIE RIGHT PREVAIL

Pike Rockcastle county is the
slogan of every philosophical
man. woman and child, and what
everybody wants shonld be had.
This question of bonding old
Rockcastle in her 1913 year is the
issue and the only thing that is
resting on the minds Of her people
to-day. I want to say that there
has been an organization perfected
whereby the bond issue shall be
heralded to every nook and crevice.
We expect to hold up this noble
cause and endeavOr to hold it hi2 h
enOngh that a man shall know
when he tramples over such
causes what he is about. Let
every man join this great work
and post himself so he may be
able to explain to his neighbor In
few short words what it means
to him to have pixies in this grand
old county OF ours. Where, oh,
where is the argument against it.

Well, I should say no, many times
no. Stop and think who it is that
pays for these roads Isn't it the
man that has the money? You
are compelled to say yes. Well,
if il is left 10 the people that
