S. Caldwell, of Wrens, who was a candidate in the Jefferson county primary, as follows: I , he . through , experience t have passed during the past few weeks has convtncen me that otir method of selecting county ami state officials is far from isfnotory. In some ethical lions it is not considered fora minister to advertise for pastorate or to solicit directly indirectly the support of mem hers of the church at the time of the election or previous to election. It seems to me that it would b c far better if public offices were tilled after :» similar manner. At the present time we are operat ing under the expensive and awkward plan of leaving matter of election in the of the candidates The manAvho aspires to a office tmist go about the and make personal appeals the voters, This plan is sive and bitterly It is exceedingly unpleasant go about the country and ask citizens for their votes.
