M. F. JACKSON
FOR REELECTION

In presenting the announcement
of NJ. f. jackson for reelection to
the office of high sheriff of Marion,
we are pleased to offer the name of
a man who has never to our knowl-
edge, failed to do his duty fearlessly
and without favor. At the time he
succeeded to office there was trouble
in various parts of the county, which
constantly REQUIRED, much to the
disgust of the law abiding citizens.
Since Mr.. Jackson has been in office
all this has been put down, and now
there is peace, outside of occasional
outbreaks. Mr.. Jackson has never
refused his assistance to make peace
and quiet in a neighborhood, and
when he arrived on the scene it was
no farce, as many offenders have
found out.
If Mr.. Jackson secures the nomi-
nation from his party, he will be ac-
corded the support of many who feel
grateful to him for the good work he
has done in giving prompt attention
to their desire for good order in their
neighborhoods.

While DR.. N. B. Moore was address

"Poundings."
County Superintendent.

When provisions they got low
And we knew not where to 60
Or what method to pursue
Nor the proper thing to do,
Our EN- barressment to conceal
And still provide another meal.
Why, it was silently murmered round
That each one would give POUND.
And so the eventful time was set
And the people, they promptly met.
But to our glad and great surprise
We learned the house must grow in size.
Then such pounding we did get,
But I was really glad we met,
For the good things laid in store
Could not be appreciated more.
But the thing that should not be lost
Is the spirit in which they brought.
The first to come was Sulphur Springs
With a wagon load Of things.
Then followed fast the Victoria class
With gifts and greetings, sure to last.
The next to come but not the least
Was the pounding from Sequatchie.
