The recent storm, which was pretty general, did quite a lot of damage in Gainesville. The worst one they have had there since the cyclone visited that city several years ago. But no one kill ed or injured. Some who claim to be democrats say they are not going to support A1 Smith for president, reason they claim that he is a liquor man because ho favors the government enforcing the law and save tho states the great expense of trying to do it.

Editor Nugget: I notice you ask if Gov. Al Smith should withdraw from the presidential race on accouut of Sheriff Jackson being opposed to him. I am very apprehensive that Jim Davidson will also bolt the democratic party, which would he very disastrous to the party of the South, and he an impediment to detm cratic victory this fall. Shall we vote for tho man that our negro delegates to Kansas City selected tor us? The South has always advocat ed rights, and in fact si ceded for that principle. I believe Gov. Smith to lie the stronge.-t a Ivocate of state rights since Thomas Jef ferson. Jint "houl 1 vote for Al and have his wet dream come true. Fred Bi ack.
