TO THE PEOPLE OF THE 12th
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
I am a candidate for Congress
from the 12th Congressional under Dis¬
trict of Georgia, such rules
and regulations as our party may
prescribe in the Democratic Primary
to be held Sept. 8th, 1920. Member¬
ship in Congress is a post of honor
and service. In a period of transi¬
tion and disturbance its importance
cannot be over-estimated. The- ef¬
ficient and prompt adjustment of
the problems of the nation is very
vital to the general welfare. Believ¬

I hereby announce my candidacy
for the Legislature subject to the
Democratic Nomination.
In the event I am elected, I prom¬

ability, all of the citizens of Houston
County, regardless of location.
1 shall advocate all measures that
will aid our grand old county in con¬
tinuing its upward progress, and re¬

measure which seeks to dethrone it
from the pre-eminent position it now

TO THE VOTERS OF HOUSTON.
I beg to announce my candidacy

The issue before the people of
Houston is the creation of a New

A native of this county and yield¬

both sections should progress as they
should—that a division should be
made.
Therefore I solicit your careful
and unprejudiced consideration of
my candidacy, and trust that you
will see fit to honor me with your
suffrage upon my position on the
New County issue.
Respectful!}, EMMETT
HOUSER.
TO THE VOTERS OF HOUSTON
COUNTY
I hereby announce myself a can
didate for the Legislature subject
to the democratic primary. I consci¬
entiously believe that thetime has
come for a division of Houston Coun¬
ty. Our people are the same but in
terests in some respects are differ
ent. The county is divided and there
can be no growth commensurate
[ with of her resources until the ques
tion a new county is settled. “It
is n house divided against itself”,
and I ask the voters of Houston
County to carefully consider whether
it is not best to divide and let each
section of the county take the lines
of development which are suitable
to their products and commercial
interest.
In asking your support on the is
sue of a division of the county I am
aware that it’s natural for the peo
pie of the western side of Houston
to want a new county, and at the
same time it is legitimate for those
of the eastern side to oppose it.
Therefore I hope the fight will be
(that of gentlemen and friends and
j not enemies.
Respectfully,

THE STORY OF “ANNIE LAURIE *♦
(By Carl Schurz Lowden In The
Dearborn Independent.)
Near the close of the seventeenth
century, about 1699, William Dou¬
glas, of England, was in love with a
wonderful girl. This wonderful girl
was Annie, one of the four daughters
of Sir Robert Laurie, the first bar
onet of Maxwelton, in Scotland,
William did just what many other
Cupid-stricken men have done. He
wrote a poem about his heart’s de
sire, The first verse throbbed with
sentiment whereas the second pictur
ed Annie as a flirtatious miss with
a peacock’s back and a narrow
waist. The original version contained
no third stanza; it was added long
afterward by Lady John Scott.
There is many a slip betwix; the
cup and the lip, also between the
plighting of the troth and the altar.
In 1854 an old lady who was a grand¬
daughter of Douglas told the story
of his love affair, and naively con¬
cluded her account with the state
ment, “But he didna get her, after
a,.”
His was a love tha failed. Perhaps
Annie did not wish to leave bonnie
Scotland and take up her residence
in England. Perhaps she loved more
devotedly Alexander Fergusson, of
Craigdarroch. As only five miles sep¬
arated the two homes, Annie could
easily look up the glen from Maxwel¬
ton and see the Craigdarroch chim¬
neys. She probably had a good and
sufficient reason for leserting her
"Sweet »* William and choosing
“King” Alexander to b.? her hus
band, but apparently there is no re¬
cord of what it was.

upon her head when she gave
mitten to, Douglas. Were Doug
las and Fergusson rivals? Did she at
once turn to Alexander' 1 These are
which cannot be answered;
but eleven years elapsed between
the rejection of and the marriage i
one
to the other, and in those days twen-j j
ty-eight was near-spinaterfcood.
The history of the song is some
what obscure. James Grant gave it
a tragic setting in his preface to
it The Scottish Cavalier. »»
tt It was to Annie Laurie,” he
wrote “that Douglas Inscribed those
well-known verses which now bear
her name. Douglas is supposed to
compose and sing the song when in
Flanders in battle by the side of his
friend, Walter Fenton. A ball pierces
his breast and he expires, holding a
lock of Annie’s bright brown hair
and murmuring her name.’’
This sounds too ideally dramatic
to be true.
At various times doubts as to the
reality of Annie Laurie herself have
been expressed. Was she a flesh-and
blood bonnie lass of Scotland of a
fictitious person? The Riddles, of
Pennsylvania, are her descendants.
Miss M. E. Riddle, who investigated
the matter in an effort to obtain the
true story of the song, has set forth
the facts in this fashion:
“Jean Riddell (the name later
changed to Riddle) was married ic
Sir Robert Laurie, the first barone'.
of Maxwelton. One of their daughters
was Annie Laurie, celebrated in the
Scotch song.
it Annie Laurie was famed for her
beauty and cleverness, and was a
social favorite in all the country
round abouf; so it was not surpr's
ing that she captivated a Mr. Douc
las of England. He, a man of culture
an d of letters, composed the son"
bearing her name.
it But seeing that the course »1‘
true love does not run smoothly, sh r
married a Mr. Fergusson, thus leav
ing Mr. Douglas to his hunting and
his verses.”
The house at Maxwelton does, in¬
deed, impress travelers as a pictures
que place. It sits high upon its bank
or braes and wears a fine coat of
ivy. There isa marriage stone over its
main entrance and another above a
window; one commemorates the
wedding of Annie’s father and mo¬
ther, the other records that of her
grandfather and grandmother. Each
stone contains the marriage date, the
groom’s and bride's initials, the fam¬
ily coat-of-arms, a pair of laurel
leaves and Virtus semper viridis ,i)
as a motto. Below the grandfather’s
stone these words appear: “Except
the Lord build the house, they labor
in vain who build it. »»
The father of Annie Laurie was a
devout man. At the time of her
birth he took down the family Bible
and recorded the event therein.
44 At the pleasure of the Almighty
( God,” he wrote, “my daughter, An¬
nie Laurie, was born qpon the six¬
teenth day of December, 1682,
i about six o’clock in the morning. She

song,
first published as a musical compo¬
sition in Paterson and Roy's “Vocal)
melodies of Scotland” in 1838. Lady j
John Scott had revised the original
two-stanza version of William Doug¬
las, the disappointed lover, and add
a third stanza; she also composed
the music. Though much of the na¬
tive idiom was dropped by Lady
Scott from the two verses, she im¬
proved the poem both in style and
content. In its present form it is
sweetly sentimental, easily one of
the best ballads in the English lan
guage.
Everywhere Expreetee Contempt
The tongue has a single gesture, and
everybody knows wliat it means. It
Is thrust out in express contempt. The
little girl who “sticks out her tongue”
does not realize ihai hpr action, so un¬
ladylike. harks hack to the prehistor¬
ic. It Is undoubtedly a most ancient
mode of conveying the idea of inten¬
sified disrespect. Everywhere in the
world, among savage and civilized peo¬
ples, tile lingual gesture tuts the same
reeognlxedsigjiiticatice.
Suppressed speech is a very pain
ful disease, »« Sir William Harcourt
once remarked.
