was apparently worse than useless.
It would only load to delay m ship-

Before the public was aware of

with the same kind of success

There was considerable excite-
in our usually quiet town
last Saturday morning over the dis-
of a very insulting,
cent and threatening note address-
ed to one of of our that
had been found posted up on the
bulletin board at the Court House.
The note was to Mr. J.

Simmons, on to say that
had been the instigator of
a plot to lynch him, that ho was
ready for and would have
him murdered in less than twenty-
four hours. The language of the

contained considerable
profanity. Mr. was

oil immediately to find his man and
to see what was meant. As soon as
found Simmons denied

with the as well as ignorance
of its contents. This statement
Simmons is believed to be true, as
no man would allow his came

such import a public place.
George Simmons is one of tho lead.-

not much reliability one who
has much to say in matters political,

At the late Republican con-
held here Sheriff W. M.
King was nominated for the
Senate, and since that time he
has one time been announced at
one of the speakings as a

writing Sheriff King has attended

declarations that we know of.

in regard to this question, and it
is declared with equal confidence
that he has and has not accepted

We have heard it stated that he
was a candidate by those who
claim to know what they are
talking about, and again this
has been denied by others, who
claim to know equally as much
of Mr. g's intentions, and
they say he has authorized no
one to announce him and
will not allow his name to go on

Independent candidate the Rb-

Mr. King and has done all in its
power to defeat him, which it
will do at all times when he op-
poses Democracy. But it is not
