Wear Clothes
Might as well buy garments that fit and wear
well as to buy garments that don t fit and don t
wear long, either. It's just as easy and cheap
to make clothes that fit as to make clothes that
don’t It’s only a question of -know how.
We have found a manufacturer who really knows and
how to cut and make garments for men
boys and.we’re going to stick to him. If you
want fit and durability^ nobody can suit you
better than we can.

FAYETTE’S OFFICIAL
Only the County Couumtssloners Are
Held by the Democrats.
Fayetteville, Oct. 8 —The con
solidated vote in Fayette was*.
Hines 867, Atkinsou 790. Cook,
for representative, 842; Blalock.
808. Tbe remainder of the State
ticket was behind in about tbe same
proportion as that for governor,
Democratic county commissioners
were elected because one district fail¬
ed to send in an; returns in regard
to the county commissioners. It was
thought at one time tbe managers
would throw out two districts whose
tally sheets and lists of voters did
not come in under seal, but tbe man¬
agers decided to send the vote up
just as received, together with two
other districts whose papers were
not signed up by tbe managers un¬
der certificate as to these and other
irregularilies in the vote.
There was intenee feeling on the
part of the Populists districts when would it was be
talked that the
thrown out, thus giving tbe Demo¬
crats a majority for all candidates.
The election was very quietinsome
districts. In others not so quiet, vet
no one was seriously hurt. There
were a good many challenges made.
We polled over 2,000 votes, more
than has ever been polled. It is
thought some voted more thanooce.
The Democrats will contest. We
feel confident that when a fair count
is made we will come out victorious.
