They borrowed a bed to lay
His head,

down,
They borrowed the ass in the

For Him to ride to town
But the crown that He wore
And the cross that He bore
Were His own.
He borrowed the bread when
the crowd He fed
On the grassy mountain side,
He borrowed the dish of broken
fish
With which He satisfied =
But the crown that He wore
And the cross that He bore
We're His own.
He borrowed the ship in which
to sit
To teach the multitude -
He borrowed the nest in which
to rest
He had never a home so rude.
But the crown that He wore
And the cross that He bore
Were His own
He borrowed a room on the
way to the tomb
The passover lamb to eat =
They borrowed the cave for
Him a grave
They borrowed a winding
sheet
But the crown that He wore
And the cross that He bore
Were His own.
The thorns on His head were
worn in my stead;
For me the Savior died;
For guilt of my Sin the nails
drove in
When Him They crucified =
Though the crown that He wore
And the cross that He bore
Were His own,
They rightly were mine.

Justice department. attorney
examines poll tax record
IAN EDIToRIAL)

c. D. Wynne. ST., of Pickens, called Tuesday
to give us an order, and in the course OF CONVEX
sation, commended US for taking a stand in the
governors race. He said it didn't make any dit
ference who we were for, but the tact that we
take a stand, a strong stand, and stick with it,
does. He didn't tell us who he is going to vote
tor, but he didn't say who he thinks will win.
which he also said wouldn't make much diff
ference.
Allie PovaII, a gentleman who at any time
will stand up and fight for what he think is for
the best interest Of the people. also commended
us for the very same principle. Allie, a strong
Coleman supporter, must have a little some
thing special in him that others are lacking.
We are for Charles Sullivan, and by that
same virtue, we are against Coleman, against
Johnson, and against Mason. What else can
you be or would you like your newspaper
to be for everything and against nothing !. or
against everything and for nothing. Here could
be only one position. Your newspaper would
become nothing.
For our benefit, from those Coleman support
er friends who are still with us what would
you have done about the Coleman rally last
Wednesday night? Our paper is scheduled to
come out late Wednesday for early Thursday
mailing. Though we were late, any delay would
have made us later and our fine people in the
backshop who put the paper together have to
rest sometime, and it BIlbo himself had made a
personal appearance, we could not have been
able to get it in that issue. As for calling sup
porters to the rally, it would have done no good
when we mailed out Thursday afternoon.
The above is the issue that is, if there
had been no complaints. But, now it behooves
us to bring out the whole truth. The Coleman
rally, actually held here last Wednesday night.
was not given to US in any form either from the
local or state headquarters. 1t is the first time
in our newspaper career that we have ever
known, or even ever heard Of, such a thing 60
ing on that a local newspaper was expected to
carry an account of, without notification. Whe-
ther we are expected to be mind-readers, or
just expected to hold still while being left out
in the cold as a complaining block for a certain
group, we are still trying to figure out.
We can't help but wonder how much support
and how many votes Mr.. Coleman is going to
get through such tactics.

without facilities to register
new applicants for voting.
Judge Harold Cox, who is
trying the case, ruled that lie
would not require the CLERK
to bring the records out of
the county, but would permit
the federal government to
send an attorney to inspect
the records, but with no pho
tographs and no copies to be
made, and make a report to
him SO that he could decide
what, if any, records would
be admissible in the case a.
gainst Smith.
On Thursday morning, Doar
and Will Wells, assistant At
torney General of Mississip-
fpi, Inspected the registration
books and poll books from
several precincts to determine
the manner in which they
were kept. Wells was here at
the request of Circuit Clerk
Henry Mcclellan.
The next step, Wells said,
will be for DOar to go before
the Judge and ask for an ord
err for Introduction of copies
of such of these records as
he claims might be admiss-
ible i'm the case against
Smith.
Wells expressed the opinion
that none of the records are
admissible, with the possible
exception of poll tax records,
which are kept by the sheriff
and filed with the circuit clerk
at the end of the year.
While here, Wells advised
Mcclellan not to permit Pho.
tographs or photo copies OF
any of his records unless
there is a court order requlr-
it.
In the suit, one of the fede'
raj governments contentious
is that Smith has refused TO
let negroes pay poll taxes.
Wells pointed out that NC
Clellan is not a defendant in
This case.
Deputy Smith sad he has
had no word as To when tue
suit will be called again. Jud-
pc Cox had previously said
that he planned to call the
case in late July, but observ-
ers expect a later date due
to a full calendar on the
courts docket.

Although straw votes and
other forms of poll taking
may be an Indication of what
is to come, they are far from
infallible. While most polls we
have come up on indicate a
strong lead for Sullivan in the
governors race. some are a
bit confusing.
For instance, Sunday, as
our family drove to Sails for
a short visit, we took our own
personal poll by counting
bumper stickers. Silver
Springs, whatever that is,
came in first with Ruby Falls,
Bellingrath Gardens and
4 Charles Sullivan all tied for
second place.
Along the poll line, though,
here are results of the few
reported to us. Walter Dur
j aam, Jr., a solid Johnson
man if ever there was one,
says a straw vote was taken
at the Friday Durant Rotary
Club meeting with the follow
ing results: Blowtorch Mason
and Rubel Phillips in a tie
for last place with two votes
each; Coleman, 7; Johnson,
Is; and Sullivan. 9.
Ed Wilburn Hooker reports
that a straw vote was taken
at a meeting of insurance a.
gents from throughout the

ling percentages of votes:
