he will soon take turn for better.
Mrs. Bette X. Burt has been on the

woman from the work of the church

OAKLAND NEWS.
Rev. James Porter, Editor and Local
Representative.

Mr.. Walter B. Hunter, Candidate
for Chancery Clerk of Yalobusha
County was here Saturday seeing the
people and making his wishes known
to them. The Hunter family have
been good citizens of this county for
a long time and we are sure that if
he is elected that he will do his duty
and fill the Office well.
Rev. John Wesley Jones of Tilla-
tobia was here one day this week with
his wife seeing his friends and shop
ping. We are always glad to have
these good people come to this town.
Mr.. Thos. Morgan from out East
of here was here on business this
week. No happier Christian gentle
man in all this land than he is.
Will N. Frost, Candidate for Sheriff
was here this weeek with his friends.
Mr.. Frost is well known all over the
county and we feel safe in saying
that no better man can be found than
he is. Always kind and accomodat-
ing and if he is elected the people
will have competent gentleman in
the sheriff's office.
We notice that in the Second Dis
trict that Mr.. Louis C. Barber is a
candidate for Representative. With
out Mr.. Barber knowing anything
about it we make this promise for him
that if he is elected that he will do
his best to represent the people that
elect him. So far if he has an op-
ponent from the Second District we
do not know it. We think the people
this time ought to vote for men that
will be there for the purpose of tax
ing care of their interest and we
think he will do that to the best of his
ability.
How about this? If you walk in
the Chancery Clerks Office next year
and find that there is fly in there
why don't get wrathy for it is some
time some trouble to keep the screens
so closed that they can't get in, and
then don't you know that some Flies
| ct. w. fly are very good and useful
too. But if you do not find a Fly
there lock and you may see some
Wood, and you know that Wood if
it is the right length and size is al
ways needed in every place. Now
since we think of it to some it may
seem better to have a real good
Park (Parks) of the entire office.
Well some one might think it would
be better to have Hunter to see
what kind of game he co aid find
there. So there you are and take
your choice and we think we will all
be satisfied with either of the above
mentioned.
We have Buffalo Gnats with us now
very much to the annoyance of the
cattle and horses. They are not in
such great numbers as they have been
at other times but they will do great
damage if the people are not watch
full and protect the stock. Mr.. W.
V. Moore lost two good mules and we
have heard of few others losing
some mules and several are sick, We
do hope that they will soon go for
they are a great pest.
Mrs. Buford of this town has been
dangerously i'll for several days but
the latest from her is that she is
some better. We assure the family
that we will be glad when she is out
of danger.
Walter V. Moore made business
trip to Memphis this week to buy
some mules to replace those killed
by the gnats.
