of Your Valued Patrc
Tne County Convention. G
The county convention will meet on
next Monday, after which time it is
thought that the political pot will be* it
gin to simmer. Up to the present, ^
however, there are bat few prospeo- q
tive candidates. This is dne largely ci
no donbt to the fact that there are but
few offices to be filled. Clerk of the
Court Frank W. Shealy has two more se
year; Sheriff P. H. Corley likewise ai
has two more years; County Superin- ^
tendent of Eduoation Martin will not q
have to run this summer, and Super- re
visor Langford has two more years.
State Senator Orosson will holdover
for another two years, but the in
members of the House will have to be e$
elected. So far it is not known if &
either of the present representatives
will stand for another term, no defl- ju
nite announcements having been _
made. It was thought that ex-Sena- "
tor Sharpe would make the race,
many friends from all over the oounty w,
having urged him to run, but a state- pc
ment from him elsewhere In this issue *D
sets the matter at rest. Col. J. m
Brooks Wineard, it is thought, will ta
make the race, his friends having ap- 01
rproached him from the different saotions
of the county, bat no announce- l(
inents have been made. gc
Judge of Probate Geo. S. Drafts to
will stand for re-eleotion, as will Conn- fQ
ty Auditor Dent and County Treasurer
Wingard. There is no opposition S
to either of these gentlemen so far.
It is understood that the present
county commissioners, Messrs. James ab
Oaughman and S. Rufus Smith, will af
offer for re-election, but if they are to ^
haye opposition it has not yet developed.
The same applies to Coroner af
B. D. Clark, who will be in the race th
to win. . .
nc
. After next Monday there will likely RT
be something doing all along the line, dc
but, as stated above, there will not be de
the usual number in the field this
summer.
