Illness Prevents J. H. Turner
From Seeing Voters.
Because of the illness of himself
and wife, Mr. John H. Turner will
not get to see many of the voters
of the county before the primary,
lie has had a very trying time
with sickness for a year or more,
and feels that those who do not
understand the circumstances,
would misunderstand his not com¬
ing around and personally solicit
their support. Mr. Turner is a man
who lias made the county a good
citizen, and well deserves the sup¬
port of the people.
Notice To Candidates,
It appearing that the committee
of the democratic party of white
county made a mistake in fixing
the date for the payment of assess¬
ments. Having fixed the date on
the 23rd inst. it will be seen that
this does not give time to print,
distribute tickets and rules. There¬
fore all candidates will please pay
assessments by 5 o’clock. I’. M.,
April iS, or their names will not
appear on the ballot. All running
in said primary must pay as above
advised.

1 saw in the last issue of the
Courier where Rev. Patterson said,
“Why is it that so many people get
whiskey in Cleveland and nobody
knows where it comes from?”There
is another thing about it, and that
is they don’t care, so they get it,
and get filled upon it, and have a
big time. I have heard old men
say that it was not any harm to
drink a dram. There is not a
place within the lids of the Bible
where it does not condemn drink¬
ing. They allow these blockaders
to get off in some hollow and make
the hellish stuff, and sell it to some
young boy who is afterward
brought before the courts and fined,
probably fifty dollars, and just let
them who make it go free. Any
phurch member \yho lias pot back¬
bone enough to condemn liquor is
not fit to be in a goat pen, much
less the church of God.
If people would just look
what it has brought D. F. Morris
to, surely any church member
would never touch it again. It has
broken the hearts of mothers, and
caused them Jo carry their grey
hairs to the grave in sorrow
There is that man over there in

Thos, F. Underwood, Agt.j
Cleveland,
J\ e notice that your correspo ij
dent from this district recently re¬
lated a story regarding a great ex¬
citement in our community, to
wretch we wish to refer in as few
words as possible. He gives an
account of parties running land
lines on Sunday, accompanied by
the ringing of church bells and the
Hying of w hite flags, while others
became very excited. We presume
that the readers of the Courier are
familiar with the fact that Shoal
Cjgeek has fewer cases in the super¬
ior court that any district in the
county according to population,
hence we need not enter into de¬
tails ot this sort. We have a few
citizens, probably, that make a
lift0 whiskey at times, and it must
have been amongst this class that
the “excitement,” and “running”
ot lines prevailed, and the ringing
of bells surely was other than
“church” bells, and the “white”
flag may have been a sign for some
one lo“ruiv’ fromapproaching dun
ger, and hide their “goods” in a
brush pile. And what was the
“shout ing” about ?
\\ e hope that your correspondent
from Shoal Creek will write more
clearly what he means, and cease
to reflect discredit upon the good
people of our district.
H espectfully,
A READER.
To all whom it may concern :
In reply to our Leaf R. F. D.
No. 1 News correspondent, who
states thit? he had been informed
that I was a candidate for coroner,
Iain no candidate. He has been
informed wrong, and the person
informed him ' has informed him
falsely, and (he truth is not: in him.
but what I can
tell whether a man is dead or alive
and I don’t think that the sheriff
has done anything that he needs
arresting for, and 1 dare anyone to
publish any such article in which
my name is mentioned.
