It there, is single precinct in
Burke county In which D. l.. Poin-
dexter of this city will not get a big
mai ajority at the general election on
Tuesday of next week, we nave not
yet heard of same. His name will
be found in the second or democratic
column on the ballot, and most Of
+ the voters will carefully look over
the sample ballots in order to fully
understand same before going into
the booth to vote. Reports in re-
gard to Mr.. Poindexter's. candidacy
are especially good from the west
portion. of the county, and in the
Powers Lake country, though he
will also get very heavy vote in the
zFlaxton country where the demo-
cratssare strong. The members Of
the Nonpartisan League will prac-
gtically all vote for him, and his cleo
stion is already assured by large
majority. There Is no other can
didate on the ballot that Is & more
porular or that is being talked Of
more at the present time than Mr..
Poindexter, who fills every require
ment necessary for the proper con-
ducting of the Office of county Judge
in an efficient and proper manner.
People who know him best are sat
isfied that they do not need to look
further in order to get competent
and Qbliging official, and voters
throughout the county realize that
'the-ofice Of county Judge Is not one
to be fooled with. This office re-
quires a man that has good judg-
ment, is we'll versed In titles, one
that is absolutely fair in all his
dealings, and one that is very oblig-
ing to all with whom he does busi-
ness. In Mr.. P6indexter the voters
and taxpayers will hnd >all these
qualifications, and for that reason
he will receive the heaviest portion
of the votes cast at the general elec-
tion next Tuesday.
The c.. T. Mahoney sale held in
this city on Friday of last week was
well attended, and the bidding on
all property was very good consid-
ering the kind of crops we have had
here during the past few years. At
ter looking after some business mat
ters here for few weeks Mr.. Ma
honey intends to leave for points in
the east where he will spend the
winter. He intends to return to
Bowbells again next spring to farm.

public meetings are prohibited by
the health boards. and until the cpl
sdemic Of the Flu is pretty well over
the ,entertainments cannot be held. ;. Y
