the following: On retiring rub Q-Ban
like shampoo on hair and scalp. By

before the committee, Lum Alexan-

Scott received a majority of Is to 8
over all. and was declared the nomi-

off tremendously and no sore spots.

There seems to be a strong senti-
ment in the county for DR.. H. G.
Sanders to run for representative.
We understand he is willing to do SO
if the people really want him. There
is no man in the county who could be
relied upon to stand firmer to his
convictions than DR.. Sanders. He is
a republican but not politician, He
spurns the ways Of the political
trickster, who is out simply for the
Office and on his own invitation.
