The political pot in Jackson is begining to simmer, and the' bee is buzzing around the heads of many of her noble sons. There seems to be a disposition on the part of as pirants for favors, to cut out the spcak-esics and carry there case di rect to the voter. This is as it should be. The people write the final verdict, and if you have a cause carry it to them. Hide-step the fixers, for in the year of our Lord nineteen hun dred and ten things political must, be open and on the square in old Jackson, else the howl sent up in the name of fair play will be loud and long. Beware of the lixer. The little bird tolls us his day of mani pulation is over. It is a little early to talk definite polities, but it is not too early to serve notice that we stand for a square deal, with a chance given every one who wishes A Suit go O'), s 50, in 0 >, 12 50 10 50 A Cravcnette 4 OS, 7 7)0, 9 00, 12 50 A Pair of Trousers 1 50, 2 on, 8 50, 5 00 An Overcoat 1 98, 7 50, 12 5, 18 75, 22 50 A Nice Shirt 50c, 98c, 1 25 Some Men’s Underwear O'.to, 75c, 90c Some Night Shirts 50c, 75c, 98c A Good Boys’ Suit 98c, 1 50, 2 50, 8 50, 5 00 A Boys’ Overcoat 1 50, 2 88, 4 50 A Fancy Vest 98c, 1 50, 1 98, 2 98 A Silk Handkerchief 25c, 50c A Handsome Silk Tie 25c, 50c Suspenders 25c, 50c, 75c A Phoenix Muffler 50c A Silk Muffler 50c, 75c, 98c, 1 50 A Pair True Shape Hose 25c A Good Sweater 50c, 98c A Silk Umbrella to enter. Forecasting the future by the past, we shall protest -against closing the date of entry sixty days Iml* fore the primary. If this is not shutting off opposition in the inter est of “early birds’’ we are not on to the political game- We can see no other reason for such a move. So, Mr- Prospective Candidate,keep your eye on the manipulators, and be on hand at the proper time, de manding your rights, else after it is too late you will be telling your friends how it happened. Our advice to the timid prospeetives is to get in early and run a scared race till the last vote is polled. Many changes and improvements arc Wing made in Winder, but it seems tb it narrow Pig Tail alley is destined to romaini with us. The latest addition to our ex change list is the Statham News. It is edited by Col. J. F- Holmes, and carries ads from the progressive merchants of that thriving little city. Xincty per cent of the taxpayers want Candler street widened and beautified. One man objects, and council halts. Of course this should not tend to strenghen the charge of one man rule in Winder. "If it will serve the public weal Candler street should be beauti fied. If it is not in the interest of 98c to 5 00 the whole citizenry and would not tend to public progress, then it should not be done. We challenge any member of council to give one valid reason why the wishes of the taxpayers should not be granted without unnecessary delay. Speak up, gentlemen. Our columns are open to you.
