To tho Citizens of Oconee: Tho recent doath of Mr. Sanders, Oconee's Supervisor-oloct, necessi- , tates tho election of a successor on , tho 20th instant, as announced by the County Democratic Chairman. At tho solicitation of friends residing , in every section of the county, I havo, j after careful consideration of the du ties and requirements essential to an intelligent, efficient nnd progruBsivc administration of the office, reached tho conclusion that my experlonco In ' life iltH and qualities me, by giving the Job all my time, to discharge the duties of the office of Supervisor In ? maimer fully as acceptable to the public as any, Supervisor tho county has ever had; and upon this founda tion I 'hereby announce my candidacy for tho office of County Supervisor of Oconee county, subject to tho rules of the Democratic party. If olocted, I pledge you my word of honor that I will devoto al)?itt myittn^.^fijAi^ to the duties of the office hud suPSrV vise every piece of work coming un der my control and supervision, and see that every dollar of county funds is honestly and economically ex pended, consistent with permanent improvement on our location and up keep of public roads and bridges. I reside near tho county seat, eas ily in touch by mail or in person,with every section of tho county. My ex perience in handling labor and in op erating machinery, and tho heavy uses of roads in hauling lumber over tho same for a life-time, peculiarly flt me, I believe, to handle tho chain gang and bridge building, which are BO essential in the building nnd keep ing up of good roads, which In this day are so strongly demanded by tho public. And doing this, I will again pledge you mv word of honor that in tho performance ot Ibis duty, I shall not make "favorites" or "pets" of sections of the county to C'o neglect of others; but will, by equal and ex ?act rights to all and special lavors to none, give to the people of Oconee county the best roads that tho money appropriated can build and maintain.

Glenn Alexander LOSCH Life ns Result of Accident Near Cutcochee. .Glenn Alexander, Joe and Duffy Tow, Frank Taylor and Hugh 'Elcain, all of Oconee, were In an automobile wreck near tho Catcechce Mills, in Pickons county, last Sunday. As a result of the accident Glenn Alexan der died Monday evening about 3 o'clock at tho homo of a citizen of tho neighborhood in which tho acci dent occurred. No minute particu lars were obtainable by us as to tho causo of the wreck, but our Inform ant stated that lt was ascertained that at least some of tho members of tho party of five young men were drinking. Tho five young men were all residents of Oconeo. Glenn Alexander, who lost his lifo, resided in tho Lay's Mill sec tion. Ho ls survived by a wife and two children. Tho two Tow youths are residents of tho Bethel section. Hugh Elcain resides, wo-aro in formed, in the Flat Shoal community. Frank Taylor's placo of residence was not known to our Informant, who had been in Pickons county, and saw the body of Alexander after he had dlod. Hp stated also that Frank Taylor's condition was regarded as very sorious indeed, but that he had boen taken to his homo. Taylor, it is said, was driving the car at the time of the accident. Tho car waa making fast time, ran into a ditch or gully and turned over twice before tho mechanism was entirely put out of commission and tho body of the car brought to a standstill. All of tho members of the party were more or less Injured, but lt is understood that the two Tow young men and Elcain are not considered to be very seriously Injured.

Postponed on Account Of DifiiionzAf Successful Fair impossible. Editor Keoweo Courier j ti't h a ts? ? ^ h e there can" bo no fair held this fall. Health con- v dlttons throughout the Stalte causod tho State Board of Health, several weoks ago, to postpone indefinitely the fair from tho original dates, October 28 to Novombor 1st, and lt is now deemed inadvisable to attempt to hold the fair at this lato dato. Also, tho present congested condition of transportation companies ls such as to make tho immediate dollvory. of exhibits very uncertain. Further, tho general unrest of tho people on account of war conditions and press ing labor shortage, would make at tendance upon the fair decidedly problematical. Because of those reasons tho mom horn of tho executive committee have decided to hold no fair for tho year 1918, and trvt that this decision will moot with the approval of the exhibitors and tho public generally. From present Indications, the war will soon come to a successful con clusion, and no effort will be spared to make the 1010 fair the greatest In tho history of tho society. D. R. Eflrd, Secretary.

M. C. A. camps whore our regiment ha? boon quartered. There is nothing thoy have not done to help make us cheerful and comfortable. The sports and fine entertainments and tho educational classes, freo library books, magazines, writing materials, writing and taking care of telegraph messages, buying supplies for us when wo cannot got out of the camp-tho comforting talks, ontlroly without propaganda-tho free giving of all these things has won the re spect and gratitude of ovory man in tho regiment. But perhaps ono of tho finest sor vico expressions ls that of caring for tho rolatlves of men who como, may bo, n thousand miles to seo thom and bid thom good-byo. Many nrrivo 111 and without money, and thoso are carod for in ways too Humorous to detail here. And when wo got aboard tho transport for "ovor there" I un derstand that the Y. M. C. A. go with us to minister to us, and romain with us evon In the trench fighting. It is the bright spot in our dally lives as soldiers, and I feel that we cannot say too much for this, splen did, helpful organization. If you have room I wish you would print this.
