1t is hard to tell what tomorrow

1t is hard to tell what tomorrow
may bring forth in Mexico.
Huerta has resigned, and left the
country on Monday. Fighting
has come to a standstill. 1t is
expected that Carranza's forces
will soon enter Mexico City under
an arrangement with Carbajal,
the present incumbent of Huer-
ta's government, and he will re-
tire and the Constutionalists will
proceed to formulate some kind
of a government. 1t is stated
that If they proceed to confiscate
the property Of corporations and
foreigners, as they threaten, ii
will be met by Intervention on
the part of the United States as

A careful inspection of the
crop prospect now since the rains
show that the cotton stalks have
flevet bfanched out as usual, but
having short branches, it has
fruited near the stem, and that
sefy thiekly. Now new weed is
coming on and an abundance of
bloom. There does not seem to
be any shedding. With favora-
BILE season from now on the crop
will be good. Corn has not
Jared so well. The drouth gave
it such a stunt that it will in any
event be low and punched. The

Judge Ross Endorsed
BY Many Lawyers
Republican Chancellor Has Back
ing of Many Democratic
Attorneys in District

Chancellor J. W. Ross, who is a
candidate to succeed himself in the
election August 9th, has the endorse
ment of all but eleven of the 100
lawyers in the chancery division com
posed of Madison. Chester. Hender-
son, Crockett, Decatur, Perry, Benton,
Carroll, Henry, Hardeman, McNairy
and Hardin counties. There are only
fourteen Republican lawyers in this
list and Judge Ross is the Republican
appointee Of Gov. Hooper.
While the chancery court is next
TO the court of appeals and the su-
preme' curt in Importance, it is a
court that is rarely ever visited by
the people. They, therefore, rely a
good deal upon the lawyers themselves
for instructions as to their voting in
this line.
Although Judge Ross is . Republi,
can and an appointee Of Gov. Hooper,
his official acts and demeanor on the
bench have been such as to win the
endorsement of Democratic lawyers
all over the district. This is another
striking instance of the desire these
days to keep the Judiciary high and
dry above politics. and to put the
best and ablest men on the bench in
order that the ends Of justice may be
best served. jackson Sun. adv

Throat Cutting

Last Saturday at a negro picnic on
the head of Oxford creek, two negroes
by the name Of Johnston cut Freezing
Lipford's throat, severing the wind
pipe halfway, and the slash reaching
several inches. They also stabbed
him in the back of the head. The
doctors think Lipford's chances for
recovery are small. 1t was drunken
brawl we are informed. Lipford has
a rather unsavory reputation. The
assaiants left, but not in rash man
ner. Whether they will leave the
state we do not know They lived
near Guys.

To the Voters of MCNairV County:

am candidate to succeed myself
rs Chancellor Of the Eighth Chancery
Division of Tennessee.
-Four years ago it was established
as a precedent by the people of this
State that the judiciary should be
non-partisan. Two years ago wher
Judge A. s. Buchanan, an appointee
of Governor Patterson, was elected as
one of the Judges of our Supreme
Court without opposition because OF
his recognized ability as jurist, this
principle was reaffirmed. Again this
year, in recognition of this same
principle, the members of the bars of
Memphis, Jackson. Union City, Nash
vile, Knoxville and many of the cities
and larger towns in Tennessee, re-
CARELESS of their political affiliations.
have endorsed the candidacy of Judge
Sam C. Williams.
Believing in the soundness of this
doctrine, and that politics should
have no place in judicial election,
have therefore placed my candidacy
before the people as a whole. | am
neither the nominee nor the candidate
of any party or faction
In voting for a candidate for a
judicial office nothing but merit
should be considered. No one would
approve of a Judge being influenced
in his decisions by any political pref
udice or preference. Then why should
politics be considered in the election
of a Judge? therefore feel that |
can consistently call upon the people
regardless of their political per-
suasions for support.
The Chancery Court, though little
visited by the people, is one of The
most important of the lower courts of
our State, and inasmnch as it is at
tended principally by the lawyers of
the various counties, naturally they
are the first to ascertain as to the
qualifications or merits of the Judge
holding the court, and | take pleas
ure in stating that the lawyers
throughout the division, with very
few exceptions. are giving me their
support. likewise find that in almost
every section of the division the peo-
pie as whole are laying aside poll
tics in so far as this office is con-
cerned.
Since the first day of January, |
have been almost constantly in court
and have had no opportunity whatever
to devote any time to my campaign.
lnasmuch as the machinery of the
court would have been stopped had l
deserted my duties. | did not believe
it right that should adjourn court
in order that might look after my
own interest% | felt that it was my
duty to attend to the office, and have
done so. Because of this it will be
impossible for me to visit each and
every section in the twelve counties
composing this division and see every
voter, as | should like to do. | must
necessarily rely upon my friends and
those interested in my behalf for my
success, and | assure you that | shall
your support at the cleo
ton to be held August 9th.
Respectfully,
]. W. Ross.

County S. S. Convention

The thlrtleth annual meeting of the
McNairy County Sunday School Con-
vention met at Bethel Springs last
Thursday and Friday.
The program was an unusually in
teresting and elaborate one. j. w.
Prather, the county president, pre-
sided, with G. M. Gooch, its regular
secretary, at his post. Most of those
assigned subjects for discussion were
present with thoughtful addresses,
The attendance of delegates from the
different schools of the county was
not as large asit should have been.
Many schools did not send in their
reports. 1t seems a hard proposition
to get superintendent to understand
the Importance of sending their re-
ports. The county hoped to pass to
the gold star standard. but failed on
account of all schools not sending re-
ports.
The convention, after paying ex-
penses, donated to the state work ten
dollars.
I. NJ. Gooch was elected president
for the ensuing year, with H. P.
Wood vice president. j. F. Wilson
was elected secretary. Chewalla was
selected as the place of the next
meeting.
The people of Bethel Springs gave
the convention and delegates a hearty
welcome and royal entertainment.
The meeting was held in the Meth
odist church with Rev. ]. W. CARMEL,
pastor, host.

including several special selections.
We had the pleasure of calling on

daughter of Sheriff Lewis in 1865,
was present and heard us make the
first public speech on July Z at a
picnic in Purdy. We know Of but

Iodine is Flesh Forming

This has been proven by a New
Jersey druggist who in II years ex-
perience has has many calls for salves
for cuts, burns and sores. He has
seen many things used but none with
such success as the following. 3 years
ago he had Burlington farmer call
with pile prescription. A month later
the farmer returned, said it cured him
and that he also tried it for cows score
teats, CALLED horse with success. The
druggist looked up the prescription
and found it contained iodine in a form
that would build up new tissue without
the caustic acton of of the crude drug
on the old hearty tissue. He mixed
the ointment for hundreds of customers
and it is so good he thinks the public
should be benefited so has had it patent
ed under the name of Healo and placed
out on sale at all drug and country
storees.
