BEGGING FOR VOTES

I. 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

by the citizens of a community
