Editor The Press and Standard:
Will you allow me room in your

lished and they seem to have gone
to the waste baskt or I aver saw
them in print
I saw In your paper in the edi

will help any? I do not think so.
tinless they-pass a law to prohibit
magistrates from receiving a salary
*» that affect. I know one or two
that said that they were paying the
magistrates to let them sell right
tn, and he passes hie door every day
or two. So that law won't help
much. It will help the magistrates
to receive a higher salary. Mr. Edi
tor, help the legtslature to look late
his and toll them to make the law
mere strict than to allow such for
'.he sake of humanity.
A SUBSCRIBER.
Editor Prees and Standard:
If everybody will follow W. W.
S'a. advice and carry out Just a few
of the resolutions mentioned in last
week's pspe. I feel like Kome gooii
can be ob|ainfd. But, however, in
''onnectlon to this let every farmer
resolve, not to buy obe dollar’s worth
of anything on credit, not buy a
•ark of fertiliser, for the next 1£
years, plant lean cotton, or no cot
ton. Let every farmer plant one,
two, or more acres of rice this year,
more potatoes, peas and peanuts,
raise plenty of hogs, cattle, corn and
eats. This will learn us to live
and stay at home. If anyone doubts
it. Just try same for one or twa|
yean.
