What a happy awakening for the
little girl in bed on Christmas morning,
She perhaps had sent Il letter to Santa
Claus TO tell him her needs and desires.
or maybe her mamma by skillful ques-
uoning had discovered what her daugh-
ter hoped the good saint would give
her. And so the most wonderful thing
has happened, for Santa Claus has
brought the very presents the little
girl longed for. Isn't it queer how
closely Santa Claus guesSes what little
folks want? He seems to select the
very things they like best Surely he

the usual custom OF giving a pub.
Tic servant a second term. He
9 said that it had always been the
/. democratic rule to give a second
term. Mr.. Mcclellan cameIbefore
; the voters of the Tenthl district
! and asked and received second
term, and he urged that it was a
democratic custom and it was
right to give man an endorse
: ment.
Now these same two men are
asking the voters OF this state and
OF Weakley county to break this
rule, for no other reason than that
they are out and want to get in.
They have not and can not pro-
duce a single good reason why
Senator Lee should be denied the
democratic custom of a second
term.
Luke Lea has always lived q
clean and honorable life and has
made splendid record in the
senate. He has voted right and
stands close to the national ad-
ministration. There is no logical
reason for taking him out OF the
senate and the voters are not 90
ing to do so just to please 5some-
one who wants an office.
PROHIBITION.
The man who is elected to the
senate the next time will be called
on to express his views on prohi-
bltion, and the temperance people
should look well to the record of
the man elected. Patterson says
he is for prohibition, but every
official act of his life has been
against temperance. When Lea
was battling to pass the election
and prohibition laws, Patterson
was vetoing them.
Mr.. Mcclellan one day voted for
prohibition and the next dav made
a rampant speech for local option.
He said: II AM IN FAVOR OF
PROHIBITION IN THE COUN-
