FOR TAX ASSESSOR
Lifelong Democrat Candidate
For Office He Held for
Only One Term.

In the announcement column
of The Partisan this week will be
found the name of w. A. Nc
Swain, of Puryear, who is a
candidate for Tax Assessor in
the Democratic primary to be
held October %, 1915, with the
run-off November 9Th. Mr..
McSwain held the office he now
seeks for one term 1909-12, aid
gave much satisfaction, and he
now asks for a second term in
the Office, reminding the Demo
Gratis of the county that a second

Democratic ticket, and has been
active for the Democratic nomi-
nees in the old Fourteenth

his claims careful consideration

HAGLER
FOR REELECTION
Popular Official Makes Formal
Announcement for Office
Second Time.

T. M. Hagler, who for two
years has been sheriff of Henry
county, announces in this issue
of The Partisan .as a candidate
for another term. His race is
subject to the Democratic pri-
mary election, which was ordered
at the recent meeting of the
Democratic County Executive
Committee October %.
1t is not at all necessary for
us to introduce the Sheriff to our
readers and the Democrats of
Henry county, or to say that he
is popular, because if there is a
man in Henry county who does
not know all of these things we
don't know where he has been
during the past few years.
AS it has always bnen custo-
mary to give the Sheriff two
terms in Henry county. Mr..
Hagler's friends do not believe
that he will have an opponent in
the Democratic primary, but
whether he does or not he is
certain to have a lot of votes in
every precinct in Henry county.

the homeseeker can convince our
local people that it is to the best
interest of our city and people
to invest local capital in the
enterprise offered. Mr.. Daniel
has invited the prospective
manufacturers to visit Paris for
the purpose of laying their pro.

FORMER CITY MARHSAL
OF PARIS PARDONED
Weakley Nelson Was Convicted
in 1910 Of Killing Negro.
Was Model Prisoner.

Weakley Nelson, of Henry
county, who was sci wing a ten
years sentence in the peniten-
tiary for murder, was granted a
pardon Thursday afternoon of
last week by Governor Rye.
Nelson has been in the peniten-
tiary since his sentence was
affirmed by the supreme court
in 1910. He was convicted for
killing negro when he was city
marshal of Paris. It is said
Nelson was crazed by intoxicants
and irresponsible when he COM
mitted the crime. Since he has
been in prison he has made a
model prisoner and recently saved
the life of the prison physician,
who was about to be attacked
by a convict. He has also been
of assistance in recapturing
escaping prisoners. His pardon
was recommended by the advis-
ory board of pardons and by a
great number of citizens of Henry
county. 1t was granted by the
governor on condition that Mel
son abstain at all times from the
use of intoxicants.

DUDLEY PORTER N
RACE FOR CONGRESS
WellKnownHenry County Democrat
Wants to Succeed Sims in
Eighth District.

Congressman Sims having
announced his candidacy for the
United States Senate, Hon.
Dudley Porter, Of this city, has
announced that he will be a
candidate for Congress in this
district, to succeed Judge Sims.
Mr.. Porter has twice canvas
sed the Eighth district aslelector
for the Democratic presidential
ticket, in 1908 and 1912, and
once in 1910 when he was a can
didate for congress. In that
race he received a splendid vote,
and for the first and only time
Judge Sims lost Henry county,
Mr.. Porter's majority here being
more than 500. His friends say
that they will not be satisfied
with less than LOCO majority IN
the county this year and that
this figure will more than likely
be too small. They say that
there can be little doubt of his
election to Congress since Judge
