hard times knocked at the gate, and
I got out to hunt for work, and I feel

I hoped th: t the General Assem
bly' would pension all we old Rebs
this time, but after Hoke got beat it
seems he fcrgot the patriotism of the
I old sol-iiers of the south. His hobby
i now is high schools and colleges,
' something that wont do the poor peo
ple in the country' any good.
I hear Tom’s and John Temple’s
hornr blowing for office, but after
Taft’s and Bryan’s count they will
have to return to the study of the
history of Rome and running Hearst
newspapers. I believe Bryan would
be elected but for these factions—
they are helping to elect Taft.
Mingo and Frog Valley is al!
right during this hot August sun. It
seems that the.cotton crop ha.', been
about 25 per cent., but from ihe gen
eral appearance < f things around the
Farmers Union Warehouse at Tooms
boro they are going to cut off the
speculation about 50 per cent, in
September. Watch ’em grow.
