I notice in your paper a card from C. L. Cureton, stating that if he is elected Sheriff he will do away wvith all constables and attend to the duties of .Sheriff's office and the liquor traffic with outthe help of deputies.

So if Charlie could do as he said it would be Quite an i provemient in expenses. But ad old saying is to judge the future by the past. Probably Charlie sees the expenses were too great' in the past and wants the Sheriff's office so he may recup erate. So if Charlie is elected we wish him God speed in all expenses he can save the cound ty. VnOT. A raeeting of h coM! rnittee was held at coprt house on the 25th inst.
