curtailment of dilatory tactics as
far' as is consistent with the prin
ciples of justice and fair play.

Judge Cox Delivered Ad
dress in Cairo ‘
We wont sell cigarettes after July 13th. After
that in order to get your supply of cigarettes it : will
be neccessary to leave Cairo to purchase them--This
of course means an inconvenience and time loser;
Why put yourself out? Smoke a pipe or cigar.
Medical Science tells us that the cigarette dulls your
intellect, dwarfs your body and impairs your health.
This is not hearsay,, it has been proven and it is true.
A great many of us smoke cigarettes because they
are convenient’and a short smoke. We are going to
have a supply of small pigars in stock to take the
place of them.
We will have a complete assortment of pipes,
smoking tobacco, cigars in our window for your in
spection. Let us fit you out in a new pipeand a can
of smoking tobacco and stop cigarettes. Break the
old habit and lets help the ladies put this over; they
are right.

Wight & Browne
The Leading Druggist
Judge E. E. Cox, who Is waging
an active coinpaign for the scat in
Congress now held by Frank Park,
of Sylvester, addressed the citizens
of this section at the Court House
at Cairo last Saturday afternoon.
Reports which had been sent out
from Tifton where the Judge made
his opening address in the cam
paign had indicated that he was
very harsh in his criticism of the
record of the present Congressman
but in his speech here he started
out with kind references to his op
ponent, and although the record of
Mr. Park as Congressman received
almost all his consideration, yet he
refrained from severely unpleasant
personalities.
The crowd to hear Judge Cox
filled to overflowing the court room
and his speech seemed to be well
received by those present. The
Judge by his splendid record
Judge of our Superior Court here
has made many warm friends in
this county. Some of these will
be his ^supporters in this race for
Congress, while others admiring
him equally as much, will remain
staunch supporters of Congressman
Park.
Congressman Park is expected
to be in the district for a few days
about the July 4th recess of Con
gress; and no doubt the Congress
ional race will take on additional
vim from then on.
Both Judge Cox and Congress
man Park are expected to speak in
Thomasville on the 4th of July, but
at the time this is Written it is not
known whether their speeches will
be of a political nature or not.
