Gov. Sidney j. Cats announces IN
an advertisement in the Times today
that when his term as governor ex-
pires, Jan. 4, 1921, he will represent
corporation establishing retail
stores throughout the south. He will
need a number of men to act as local
agents of this corporation and to rep
resent it in the capacity of store man
ayers, he says. Just what the nature
Of this corporation is is not stated in
the advertisement. That Gov. Cats
expects to make his home outside the
state may be inferred from the fact

VOTE FOR BRUCE

The Star wants its friends in Mar
ion county to vote for Robert Bruce
Meffert for commissioner.
Bruce is our friend.
It is not because Bruce is our friend
that we want our other friends to
vote for him. We have some friends
that we like a whole lot but we
wouldn't vote for them for dogcatch-
Iers, because they couldn't make good.
We want our friends to vote for
Bruce because he is making a good
commissioner, and we want him to
keep right on commissioneering for
at least two years more.
Bruce has an opponent.
His opponent is Mr.. A. S. Pickett,
who lives some eight miles out on the
Blitchton road.
We have tried to find something
bad to say about Mr.. Pickett, but
haven't succeeded.
He came here some six or ten or
twelve years ago, settled down and
has made Marion good citizen ever
since. Good man, good farmer and,
his near neighbors say, good friend.
He will make a good commissioner if
he is elected.
But all them good things he is,
Bruce is too, and then some.
The only thing Mr.. Pickett excels
Bruce in is his thirst for Office.
Not that Mr.. Pickett has an unbe-
coming thirst. He has just enough
to make him go out and hustle for
votes
Bruce won't hustle for votes. There
fore, his friends have TO hustle for
him. Bruce is as Independent as a
hog on ice. He says il the people
want him to serve, he will serve, and
do his darndest, but he is not going to
ask for the Office. The Office, by the
way, was given him unsought for; it
eloped with him, so TO speak; and
after it had carried him off, it had
to go down on it's knees to him be-
fore he would put the ring ON its
finger.
Bruce and Mr. Pickett are both
democrats, and the reason why they
are both running is that neither was
in the primary We don't know why
Mr.. Pickett wasn't in the primary,
but the reason why Bruce wasn't is
because his friends left it to him. to
qualify, and he wouldn't qualify. So
any democrat, or republican, or pro-
hibitionist, or communist or social
ist can vote for either of them.
So we say to them all, "Vote for
Bruce"
We ought to turn in and elect
Bruce. He is the only really, truly,
simon-pure specimen of the man
who leaves the Office to seek the man
that we have met.
Really there is no reason why we
shouldn't elect Bruce. So then let
US do so. All of Us ought to be will
ing to try anything once, from get
ting married to dying. Bruce hasn't
tried either, yet.
We all like Bruce. Let's elect him
commissioner this time and if we
don't like him better two years hence
than we do now, we will elect Mr..
Pickett.

Plenty of Action
Expected Tonight
In Newark Ring
By BRIGGS

A fight attracting widespread inter-
est is the Fulton Moran bout to be held
at the Newark Sportsmen's Club in
Newark tonight. 1t is felt that the
winner of the bout will have an excel
lent chance Of meeting the victor of
the Dempsey Carpenter scrap. An
other reason why the hall will be
packed is that one of the heavies is
likely to take a dive before the final
bell rings.
Fulton is said to be in excellent con-
dition and since his short but success
full tour of Britain has gained several
ounces of prestige. Moreover, he is
now under the management of Tom
O'Rourke, a crafty ring expert, who is
not apt to allow Frederick, the plas-
terer to do anything rash.
Many feel that ii Moran is in con-
dition he will make Fulton travel and
will have good chance of carrying off
the honors. Moran has all the quail
ties that go to make good fighter. but
failure to keep in shape has shortened
his career. In fighting Fulton tonight
Moran will also be battling against ira
dition.

The negotiations and plans are going

statutes.
