When the friends of Congressman

made a member of the Walker Cam

received a letter from Mr. Taylor
stating that he IS SUPPORTING

that he Itad written the Walker club
to this effect and asking that his

Former Representative Taylor is

“DROPPED HIS

If the reports that come from
Pierce county count for anything at
ill Congressman Hardwick has
'dropped his candy" In that county.
Pierce county up until last Sat
urday wns considered the strongest
Hardwick county in South Georgia.
While the friends of Gov. Slaton and
Felder claim that Hardwick
counties in South Georgia are about
scarce as lien teeth yet they did
admit that Hardwick at one time had
a good strong following in Pierce
county.

Tuesday evening. This gentleman Is

During his speech Mr. Harrell, a
prominent citizen of Plerco county.

"HOW DID YOU 8TAND, MR.

"1 WA8 AGAINST THE PARCEL

Pierce county Is a farming county,

As told by the Journal yesterday
the report sent out from Washington
stating that the salary of the Way-

was an error on the part of the de

The Waycross postoffice Is In the
very best of shape, and the receipts
for the six months ending June 20th
were up to the usual high standard.
Postal receipts usually Indicate the

Waycross makes a good showing.

County officials went to the scene'
late yesterday, but before they arriv

Yesterday’s rioting was, a culmina

since the contract With the United
Mine Workers was abrogated last
March and announcement made that
the properties owned by the Bacbe-

would be operated on an open shop

ployees of the company were, badly
beaten after they had been forced by
a mob estimated to have numbered
more then e thousand men to with*
draw the fires from the boilers.
Last Sunday night Progtown* a

and the disorder was repeated .Wed
