a new correspondent from sulphur
Spring, who is mighty brainy speci-
men of humanity, who represents him
self to be mouth piece of the demo-
cratic party. He signs himself "Bil-
ly," but be should add the other PAL
ty of his name and sign in full, "Bil-
ly Goat" He reminds me of catfish
head. Why Because he is all mouth
and no brains. Referring to my form
er article relative to whoever bucked
mp against Kelly had better kiss wife
and children good bye before he went
up Salt River. you popped up as 9x4
democrat and said it might be true, and
further said to the boys not to take an
other woman and preach for her liv-
ing. If you had reference to any of
your democratic boys whom you men
tion as likely to start out under this
democratic administration to preach
for living, they won't make the
salt that goes in their bread, and
would advise them to joi" Coxey's ar
my this spring and make trip to
Washington and file an application for
general relief If, on the other hand.
you had reference to me in your little
pop and personal sidewipe in answer
to the same will say to you right here
my past life for 70 years stands above
reproach, and stands as record you
can't shake. fairly understand why
you fred your pop shot AMI just as
we'll have fred at the moon as to have
shot at me. for you would come as
near shooting down the moon as me.
So IL you didn't aim your pop shot at
me this don't apply to you. If you
did l want to back no this paragraph
and say that Won are famous and no.
torious liar when you either directly
or indirectly say ever preached a
sermon or attempted to preach one, or
ever came before an intelligent audi
ence for such purpose, and l will
give you $500 reward if you can pro-
cure certificate from any church that
l ever preached or protested to be a
minister of the gospel A charge along
this line is libellous, slanderous and
you stand as an impeached author ard
furnisher of falsehood, and will
further look up your real name and
will take some pains to know who You
are. / don't believe you are real
democrat, but you just sound like a
mugwump and you do just what you
record shows you have done in the
past, and it is great injustice to
m ans metal faculties to confuse his
brain over your little slanderous and
false assertions and your name by and
by might not be, "Billy" after all.
Wouldn't it be funny if all the news
papers of the county do learn your real
name. You come as lamb but after
You are examined you appear as a
sheep in VOLTS clothing. and I know
if you can fool aud pose as democrat
long enough to get the democratic par
ty to endorse you for some kind of an
Office you will have walk over. /
mean over the road of defeat. 1t is an
awful pity that the democratic party
didn't select such brainy democrat
as the above to be the head and tail
and mouthpiece of their party, and at
tel they find out who he is they per-
haps will consider, after they find out
their mistake, and may install this
noted Sulphur Springs writer to the
honor of the craftsmanship Of his par
ty There is one good thing | can
state. While am not preacher anu
as above stated, never did preach or
attempt to, have three brothers who
were preachers, which / am indeed
proud of. and will further state that
don't lie, steal, drink, don't keep mp
a hell roaring confusion and tale-tat-
ling in my neighborhood, and have
the fullest and utmost confidence in
people wherewith ! reside and them In |
me, and as far as know I haven't an
enemy in the bounds OF the county. |
and people invariably trust me with
every phase of legal business they |
have to transact, and / have been do
ing their legal business almost as a
whole for 10 years, and handle as
much of peoples business and mems
money as any man Of my age for the
last 90 years, with credit to myself
and the parties whom / represented,
which place to back guarantee for
honesty AMI integrity, which ought to
be sufficient to satisfy the ordi nary |
minis of intelligence, and if it be
comes necessary, will further take
up the case Of my enemy Of Sulphur
Springs, and show just why he opposes
me politically.
We regret to note the accident to |
Attorney W. E McCurry, who in a
runaway down near South Pittsburg,
got leg broken. Mr.. McCurry is do
