MARY, POLITICS VERY WARM.
Several political speeches have been
made at the court house during the
past week.
Saturday Mr. Frank H. Saffold, of
Swainsboro, who is opposing Judge It.
N. Hardeman for the judge-hip of the
Middle Circuit spoke in the afternoon
at three o’clock to about 125 people.
Mr. Saffold bases his claim to the
judgeship chiefly upon the ground
that JuGge Hardeman has held the of
fice long enough, and that other coun- j
ties than Jefferson and Washington
should furnish judges. The speaker
promised reforms in the dispatch of
business in the courts and referred to
his “platform.” a number of copies of i
which have been distributed in Lyons |
and vicinity. Some comment has been
created in this county regarding his
platform, a rather unusual feature of :
a judge’s race.
Monday at noon Mr. G. W. Meadows,
candidate for Representative spoke for |
almost an hour and declared that the !
peop’e of Georgia have been taxed al-1
most to death and promised, if elect
ed 1 to represent Toombs county in the
Georgia Legislature that he would'
exert every influence to lower the
rate of taxation.
Immediately after Mr. Meadows had
concluded his speech Mr. A. O. Bla
lock, candidate for Commissioner of
Agriculture spoke for only a few min
utes and' outlined his platform to the
people. Mr. Blalock is opposing
Commissioner J. J. Brown.
Mr. Ernest Wimberly, of Lyons, who
is also a candidate for Represntatlve,
spoke only about fifteen minutes and
declared to his hearers that “ he was
not the only man in the race for Rep
resentative hut if he felt that there
was a man in the race more compet
ent than he was he would give up the
race and support one of the other
three candidates.”

The Sandman story
THE BIRD QUARREL
LITTLE Jennie Wren was not
afraid to lier mind to any
one who happened to get in her
way, and it happened one day that
handsome Mr. Cardinal bird did this
very thing.
He flew over from the top of a tail
pine tree to the very tree near the
stone wall by the road where Jennie
lived, and began to sing while Mr.
Wren was singing on a low limb of
the tree.
“Such impertinence,” sputtered Jen
nie Wren, flying out of her home in
the tree hole. He thinks just ijecau.se
tie is so handsome he can do anything
«he likes. I will soon tell him, though,

what I think of him,” and up she flew
near to where Mr. Cardinal was sitting
singing merrily.
‘‘You get right away from this- tree
or stop singing this minute,” scolded
little Jeunle. “This tree is where we
live and my husband is Binging; you
needn’t think, just because you wear
handsome feathers, you are the only
singer in the woods, and my husband
and I do not care for your song at all;
we like our own much better.”
Mr. Cardinal was so surprised that
he stopped singing and listened, and
when Jennie Wren stopped to breathe
he said, calmly: “Have you heard my
sweet-voiced wife sing? You may like
Mr. Wimberly’s hearers gave him
close attention and he made an elo
quent appeal for consideration at the
hands of the voters.
Monday night Judge R. N. Hardeman
addressed a large crowd of Toombs
citizens. The address had previously
been arranged by the ladies at which
time they hac. 1 requested Judge Harde

to hear her song better than mine; 1
do.”
Jennie was the surprised one this
time, und she nearly lost her balance
as she angrily hopped about and
bobbed her tail, for she had expected
Mr. Cardinal to quarrel with her.
“Huh!” replied Jennie, "yoUr poor
little wife; I should think you would
say something in praise of her. The
way you treat her is disgraceful. 1
know, and everybody must think so
too, that you are ashamed of her be
cause she wears that brownish-gray
dress all the time, while you go flying
about all dressed up in fine clothes.
“For my part I admire her clothes
much more than yours. She shows
better taste dressing In such modest
colors and, besides, if she did wear
red, I guess the Cardinal family would
soon come to an end, for she could be
seen plainly enough by those who wish
to harm birds and get their eggs.”
While Jennie Wren was scolding anti
hopping about, a trim little bird flew
to a twig near Mr. Cardinal, and when
Jennie again stopped for breath Mrs.
Cardinal —for It was she —said in a
very sweet voice: “You are wrong,
Mrs. Wren; my husband is not
ashamed of me. He loves me very
dearly and there is no bird that has
a husband more devoted in his atten
tions than my handsome husband.”
Again Jennie Wren was surprised,
but she called back as she flew down
to her home: “You poor thing; I sup
pose you do not dare say your soul is
your own before your handsome hus
band ; for my part I’d rather have one
that is on an equal with me in appear
ance.”
Mrs. Cardinal flew beside her hus
band and snuggled close. “Come back
on the pine tree and I will sing to
you,” she said, “though I know well
enough your own song is sweeter than
miue.”
“Not to my ears, mv dear,” answered
Mr. Cardinal. “I think you have the
sweetest voice in the world, but if you
could not sing a note I should be
thankful that you do not scold like
Mrs. Wren.”

appear with that of another candidate
for the full term to begin January Ist.
He submits his candidacy for the
full term for your thoughtful consid

work, and accustomed to nothing else.
He was born and reared on a farm in
Webster County, and is 42 years of
age. He worked out his own educa
tion by his own efforts, has made his
own way by sheer pluck and deter
mination, and is acquainted with the
hardships of life.
He is endorsed by EVERY lawyer
of the Albany circuit of which he was
judge when appointed to the Court of
Appeals, and by every bank or banker
in that circuit. He has been highly
commended by the press, and has as
surances of support from every sec
tion of the State.
Vote for him for the full term. He
will be deeply grateful, and you will
never regret it.
H. V. Pope has opened a barker
shop in the building next to the New
Yidalia Hotel, where he will be glad
to have his friends call on him.
