II stands to reason that the farm
ers are entitled to just and fair prices
and weights for their products and we
are prone TO believe from what we can
gather that most of the cotton i'm this
.section will go TO the Pocahontas mar
ket as some cotton producers are said
to have lost heavily i'm weights at other
gins and they are afraid they will re
ceive the same deal again.
Our summer term of school closed
last Friday afternoon at the expiration
of two and half months so the farm
ers could have help in harvesting their
crops. Mr.. Thomas taught a good
school and we are all proud of him as
teacher. He will teach a three
months winter term for us.
g. G. Davis told us the other day
that he awOke the other night from a
very frightful dream that revealed I'M
to him a political vision like unto that
of the "Hand writing on the wall
and when the Interpretation was made
known unto him, said, IF YOU are
going to make the race for county and
probate clerk tiaou shalt carry w. II.
| phipps around ON your back and thou
shalt wash Rufus X. Bakers feet one
day for 20 days and sleep with JEFF
Lawhon. who has the reputation of a
bucking bronco and thou shalt powder
and comb the hairless head Of Cleve
Forester ana jump the rope with Myrt
Bennett, who is equal to any steeple-
jack. and help Myrt WalrOnd hold of
the calf while the good lady milks the
cow and above everything else thou
shalt play humble peg with fine whole
bunch while the votes are being count
