We lust don't see how our good old
county of Randolph could get along
were it not for the legal advise given
by our erstwhile towering intel
lects that have taken up their domi-
cile in the far west. And, too, what
wonderful consolation it must be to
our worthy county judge, the Rev. g..
w. Million, to know that II any per-
picking questions should come before
him. all that he would have to do
to have 1t elucidated would be just
to drop a line to his vanquished Op-
ponent in the west.
We voters in Little Black township
we're very much chagrined at Joe
Decker's explanation of 'his part In
the election" We just read every line
expecting the next line to diyulge the
only point that we cared a whit"
about. tO-wit: the number Of votes cast
in James Creek township on March 13
IN the run-off primary between Booth
and Iiigginbotham and 1t sworn to by
those Judges and Clerks who all con-
cede to be perfect gentlemen. We fel-
lows up here don't care whether Joe
Decker carried the ballots to Pocahon-
.tas or whether he ever saw single
one of the ballots. We don't care If
he voted for Higginbotham or didn't
vote at all but we would like to know
how many men really did vote for
Higginbotham in James Creek town
ship, whether there was 155 or 1S5
votes there for Curtis. Joe, why did
YOU not ask those judges and clerks
to include that in their sworn state
ment? Thanks to you, Mr.. T. r. Dol
lahan. We see a little further on in
the star Herald where you have given
us the very information that we were
making such q "fuss" about and now
before bidding you all kind good
might, LET us all repeat in unison, 'Hur-
rah for Booth, Million, Perrin and
Phipps"
