THROWS COAT IN RING.
Col. Hugh Bowen, of Level Land,
was down Saturday and threw his
*. tut in the ring for County Super-J
viaar. He said he threw his coat in
the ring instead of his Hat because
le would need the nat next summer
bat that a man who got out on the
mds and worked like he proposes
to do would not need a coat. He
(manses to make a warm campaign
and to deliver some red hot
aipnnents ?on the road question as
?ke campaign comes along.
Mc.i^owen is one of.th? most suc-|
?essfal and enterprising warmers in
county and should he t>e named
as supervisor he would make a first
class official.
