MORE HATS IN THE RING

Announcements appear this week
over the names of Messrs. w. P.
Odom and Minis Watson, the former
as candidate for the Office of County
Court Clerk and the latter for Coun-
ty Treasurer.
While it has been pretty generally
understood that Mr.. Watson intended
entering the race for treasurer his in
tentions had not been publicly an
nounced.
Mr.. Odom's candidacy has been
looked for in some quarters and will
come as surprise in others. Both of
gentlemen have many supporters
throughout the county who will
throw their votes and influence in
their direction. The present incum-
bents, Messrs I. P. Mangum and j.
A. Welsh, have not as yet advertised
the fact that they will seek to be re-
tanned in office, but have told their
friends that they will be in the run
ming.
From Darlington comes the an
nouncement of Hon. J. Monroe
Spears that he will be a candidate
for reelection as solicitor.
L. S. D. Atkinson will make the
race for Coroner.
