and sane flyer. giving an exhibition
more of straight flying than anything
startling. His landings, Tuesday, were
made in the best possible manner and

Jonesville News Letter.

Jonesville, Oct. Saturday was 4
good day with our merchants. There
was good crowd in from the country.
The two cotton gins did good days
work. They ginned 78 bales and most
all of it was put on the market We
have quite number Of cotton buyers
and they are all anxious for the sta
pie. The merchants had good day
but the farmers are rather depressed
and kind of gloomy as the crops of
both corn and cotton are certainly
short and the price of cotton is not
sufficient to make up for the short
age.
The weather is ideal for the gath
ering of the crops.
The health of the people in Jones'
vile is good, but out on the Fair
Forest the people are having lot of
chills.
Mr.. Gray Gault, who got his arm
ground up in a corn shredder last
week, is doing very well.
The Presbyterians are having a
missionary Union at their church
which commenced Monday night and
will close Wednesday. There are quite
a number of people here in attend
ance and they are from all over the
country. S
After the heated term of the polit-
ical campaign it was to be hoped that
we would have some rest from cleo
tions of any kind, but here comes a
campaign for the dispensary or no
dispensary, and I hear much talk
about it and from this it is to be sup
posed that it will stir the people as
it always has done.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. C. Perrin spent
Sunday in~Jonesville.
Mrs. S. A. Porter has been quite
sick for several days and is still
very sick.
Mrs. F. M. Farr of Union is at
tending the missionary meeting at the

Mr.. w. H. Perrin, 1f4
Union, S. Car.
Dear Sir:
Following our usual custom at
the beginning of each season, for the
benefit of our new customers, as well
as our old ones, we again wish to
call your attention to the fact that the
peddler is hard at work selling the
unsuspecting consumer woolens that
are not worth the making up so far
as wearing qualities are concerned, or
the cost of the express to send them
to us. %
These woolens, in many instances,
bear the stamp of British Manu-
facture," and in some cases "German
anl French Manufacture" In the ma
jority of cases, these fabrics are
perfect, have been thrown back on the
hands of some of the mills, who have
sold them at very low price to the
parties mentioned. In some instances
the woolens have been dyed SO that
the imperfections will not show. In
other cases the woolens are absolutely
pure cotton branded with a foreign
stamp in order to enable these impos-
ters to take advantage of the unsus-
pecting consumer.
1t will be to your interest, as well
as to the interest of all parties in your
locality, If you will publish this
letter. 1t will save them many a dol
lar as the fabrics are not as repre-
sented and in some instances are alb
solutely worthless. -
Yours very truly,

In moving from Kansas to Texas. Mr..

comes with the recommendation of those
high IN the %counsels of the party as to
the purpose. purity and potcntiallity Of
his politics.
Mr.. Walton is oherins TOR the Office of
tax collector for Cameron County. He is
the representative for that Office which
the San Benito Democrats have placed
before the county yoters.
Pausing for a moment from anything I
night say personally of MIR. Walton, |
might mention the fact. t.at. the Demo

who represent the newer Democracy.
that has moved into the Valley in the
last few years, and who have come into

1t has proven its enterprise by its la

Benito district have personally repre-
scented to the county Democratic commit
tee that they have the utmost confidence
didate for this Office. The county Demo
cratic chairman Mr.. Wells. has a letter
in his possession from the Hon. j. G..
Johnson of Kansas, testifving to Mr..
Walton's exccllency as "A gentleman and

tive committee of the Democratic Nt-
tional committee for eight years. He was
also, what You might call. Private Sec
rotary for Mr.. Bryan for the last race he
made in 1908 as he had personal charge
OF his campaign. A recommendation from
such Il man, high in the confidence of.
his party. is not merely an idle record. it
is a living and virile testimony to the
worth Of Mr.. Walton. both as a citizen

If elected Mr.. Walton viii turn his

gics to the office.
This statement is made SO that no ONE
will make the mistake of thinking that
he will attempt to carry on his business
at the same time with his Office. The coun-
ty commissioners have announced that
the taxes to be collected this year will
amount to over one half million dollars.
