COMMENT

Through the lamentable MISTAKE
of a once Populist county, Che
nault, instead Of DR.. Mitchell, was
elected Senator from the district
composed of Wilkes, Lincoln, Column
b:a and McDuffle Counties.
Chenault played Democrat when
asking the vote of Democrats, and
played Populist when CONTRASTING the
old Pops.
AS it was a still-hunt campaign,
he was not found out, until it was
too late.
His vote in the Senate killed the
McCrory bill.
In other words, the Lincoln County
Senator voted in favor of the North
eEn Book-trust, AGAINST THE
SCHOOL CHILDREN OF HIS OWN
COUNTY.
The people of Lincoln County will
probably remember Chenault.
