has In its last issue the Hornet tries
to sting him on the court house ques

something or other next fall The
something or other need not be afraid
of the editor he doesnt want it He
came very near being elected represen
tative last fall was in the race for
four whole days and that is glory
enough thank jou He doesnt even
aspire to an appointive position and
his efforts for a cause are not prompted
by hope of personal gain like some

We understand that the Gordon
Hotel will change management the

All his boarders seemed to be very

ay they never expressed any desire to
top with him the second time though
feed and lodging were furnished free
Che trouble was his house had a barl
name before he took possession It
was called the County Jail and
Cash was sheriff He will be more
popular as a landlord in Gordon r
