IRKING WITH THE RECORDER
A colored woman named Eliza Car

her husband, up before the Recorder.
She was u small, youngish-looking
woman, with a fare utterly devoid of
gent fare, however, hut gave the tin
preaalon more of having been wa*led
and left blank with misery nnd long
suffering. She looked about her In «
dumb sort of way. patient and Ini
passive, like a mouse worn out with
being played with by the eat. • She
seemed nol to he complaining, when
she gavo evidence, so much ns merely
lolling a story, one In which she was
net concerned. She stalls! facta; lei

"Yes. sir." she remarked quietly, In*
cllt Ing her Lead. II was simply an
affirmative answer, and contained no
sort of amotion, no rosontment, no
angor, no pride, mu a hint of th#
weariness even, that seemed to stretch
out behind It like a desert.
It had taken five years of married
life lo bring her to thla point. And
now that she w as here she was not one
to waver or turn hark. She had stood
as much a* It was possible for her to
stand, and now she was going to see It

She aald all this In an even voice,

"Well, what have you got to say?”
the Judge asked, turning to Henry.
He stood there silent, a serloils

slightly uncomfortable and shifted
from side ol side.

and then said, In a voice that was
sad and tired:

lie had nothing say. He made no
attempt to say anything. Ills wife
never took her eves off him during

Editor Herald:

Mr Owin 11. Nixon, AuKUSta. (la.
hear Sir: I was very glad to read
in the paper that you were to offer
again for membership and, of course.
I presume for the chairmanship of the
hoard of county commissioners.
1 will take great pleasure in giving
you my personal vote, and If occasion
should call for it. my active support
In any way in my power.
Our hoard of county commissioners
Is really very much like the form of
commission government, which has
proved so effective in many places -
except that it has no recall attach
ment.
However, up to the present time In
otir county there has been no occa
sion for the exercise of such a power,
even if the low had conferred It
I think yout services In cutting down
the debt of the county, and reducing
expenses, without really Impairing the
efficiency of the public service, en
titles you to a unanimous re-eleb
tlon.
Yours truly.

Augusta. «a.. April 1. 1914.
Mr. \Ym. H. Fleming. Augusta, tla.
Hear Sir: 1 appreciate very much
your letter of this date, offering me
the support of your personal vote and
your active support. In any way that
you van give it to me in my race for
membership on the board of county
commissioners
l was In hopes that l would have
no opposition. 1 am not a politician
and really have never lu<bn In politics.
Since 1 have been connected with tlie
county and In the last fifteen months,
as chairman. 1 have l ecome interested
in the matter, and have tin ambition
to remain a member of the board until
1 can get the county entirely out of
debt and all matters pertaining to its
government upon safe and sound
basis.
It looks at the moment as if I will
not be aide to do this without fierce
opposition 1 have no mnnev to spend
on thv election, and If I had it 1 would
not s|»*nd it. s. resolves Itself simply
Into e matter is io whether the su**-
stantial and thinking people of this
community will permit me to be de
feated in m> effort to continue the
economical administration of county
affairs
1 am willing to give the time an#
the services 1 can do no more. It is
in the hands of my friends and the
friends of goxsi government to «*>•
whether they want my services any
longer.
I do not mean to imply that my
position cannot he filled hy a man just
as good as l am in every particular.
I. however, know this: what our policy
has been and what It will continue to
ho and if this Is the case ihe result
can not bo otherwise than beneficial
to the county in every way. I am
thoroughly familiar with the county's
affairs, and know where every dollar
goes, and If I can get remedial legisla
tion passed by the legislature I can
put the county upon a still hotter foot
ing.
There is a great deal to he done in
this county, and I think it can lie ac
complished without Increased taxation,
if the Income of the county Is con
served and the economical administra
tion carried out.
I do not mrtin to Imply hy this that
we are not going to have a progressive
administration. We are not going to
pursue any otljer course In the admin
istration of affairs. We are not go
ing to stint any department nnd If 1
can have the opportunity of serving
the county one more term I will carry
out these promises. I believe,, in every
particular.
I thank you for your kind letter and
If you can aid nnd assist in helping
me I will appreciate it.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) ti. H. NIXON.
