The County Judge race is
warming up as the election draws
to a close, and one that has been
pitched upon a low plain, the!
baneful influence of which upon j

and is as follows:
"What Practice of Judge Pro-

Court shall not be counsel or at

against any executor, adminis-
trator. guardian, trustee, minor
or other person whom or whose

and a large crowd was present
John M, Stanley went up to ans-
wer him. L. C. Andrews spoke
at Stratford also Saturday after-
noon in the interest of Knight,
and Hon. 0 W. Patchell went
over to have his'say in reply,
and Judge A F. Pyeatt spoke at
Elmore in behalf of Mr. Knight,
and Mr. Tom Wallace went out
fo reply, but from all reports we
hear the answers of Messrs
Patchell and Wallace, they were
not very successful in convincing
the voters.
Judge Blanton referred to the
personal vilification that had
characterized the campaign, the
holding up of Sunday School and
THE PAOLI MEE'.INE
Which had been in progress
for three weeks, with Rev. York
doing the preaching, closed last
Friday night with 40 conversions
and there has been a great up-
lift in the moral and religious
sentiment of the community,and
great good done in many respects.
REVIVAL SERIES ACCOMPLISHING MUCH
The union revival meeting un
leader ship of Rev. Wm. Tet

third week, and great good is
being accomplished, over 125
members having been added to
the churches of the city.
While the spirtual interest in
the meeting is manifesting itself,
the crowds this week have not
been as large as last week, due
no doubt to the extremely hot
weather
