Barron and Moses W. -Smith lor the office of Sheriff and Tax Collector of Jones County. Subject to the Democrat ic nomination. Rally to the sup of faithful officers. Jones County, (Vug. 20th 1888. In the usual course of life’s event we attended a grand Picnic at Round Oak in this good old county, the Lome of my childhood and on through many years of changes still my homo and of eourso all things portaiuiug to the interest ot the the public is dear to my heart, Wo shook hands with many old friends and made some now acquaintances and now it is a pleasure to roeord the fact that tho good people in that neighborhood are advanced and no more hospitable can bo found and tho way they dispense tho good things of this life and manage a big crowd at a public barbecue was wonderful to behold. They desorve more than words of praise for the order that prevailed and tho deco rum with which tho whole manage ment succeeded. Among other topics discussed we found politics ar.d the character of tho candidates foi county offices in full blast—a contost for the offico ol Ordinary engaging some attention. We found a few only who were dis posed again At that able and worthy oncumbont Judge. R. T. Ross. A better man never filled an office nor has given such general satisfaction and so well conducted the affairs ol his offico as Roland T. Ross, and when wo recall tho dark days of our “»"T“L“°V " h “" h “ out of office by a dn ecu. mill a y <» dor from .Provisional Gov . Ruger ftirrf The said order by that colored Republi can Scalawag J. B. Devcrcaux, ltoss had the courago to refuse to obey tho order and to vaeato except at tho point of tho bayon ot. His ap peal to that grand Democratic Statesman and Soldier Gen. Terry, who was in command, mot with success and was sustuiuod in his re fusal to obey the iniquitous order, and thus our good old county was saved from radical rule and negro supremacy. His management of county affairs has been smooth and her guanoes economically adminis tered and wo dare say no countv in the stato enjoys tho same distinct ion and lias given so universal sat isfaction. It is a matter of pride to examine tho neatness and well kept condition of our county records and nowhere cun one find a more wor thy or capable officer and as evidence ol all this every Grand Jury for years has given to him unstinted praise, and why thero should thou he any opposition is certainly strange and must bo either for a want of true patriotism or lack of apprecia tion duo to all faithful and efficient public servants. Wc row vonturo the opinion and aro not alone in our Views that when the day comes that his place is to bo filled by a «ew and untried officer may tho good poople fear the consequences of so ill-advised a policy. Wo would like to say much about Round Oak, tho beautiful grove and gushing springs, all of which is duo to tho cnorgy of Prof. II. J. Smith, but tho length of our communica tion reminds us to cut short and we will only add that wo oxpoct in tho coming years to see uuoof the hand somest resorts in the stato estab lished at tho old “Oak” as it is convenient, accessible and thronged there abouts with cultivated and ex cellent citizens who know a good thiug when they seo it. 88 MONEY FOll FARMERS.
