The Democrats will divide p. and put two tickits in the field. When they get good mad and it is too late for them to ga kiss and make up we will spring our ticket and put the bottom rail on top again." This is no doubt their plan in other counties besides Barnwell. Hence the necessity fora o1 united front. ENOCH hagan.h Is under contract to work for me.
