I'GAME NOT WORTH IS

JUDGE GRIFFITH
FIltST CANDIDATE ANNOUNCED
WITHDRAWN.
Former County Judge Palls Oat of

For Dy Aay Me
"I cannot afford to make two
fights for tbe 'office, so I quietly with
draw my candidacy tor the demo-
Icratlc nomination as county Jadg.
I do not think that tbe game is worth
such a strenuous chase at thla time,
with county affairs in the condition
they now are, so with malice toward
none, I quit."
This announcement waa made this
afternoon by J. B. Griffith, former
county Judge, who a few daya ago
announced his candidacy. Ua to that
time, there waa nobody brought for
ward to oppose Wordea, aad apoa.
the representation ot friends that
the democrats would stand by htm
as a unit, Griffith finally acceded to
their urgings. and entered the race.
Since Griffith came out. W. W.
Smith of Bly, Marion Hanks aad
Rollo C. Groesbeck have all coma
lout for tbe democratic nomination.
Rather than make two fights for an
office he does not particularly desire.
Griffith this afternoon withdrew en
tirely, leaving the field to the other
three aspirants.
When W. W. Meredith, a farmer
at Woodland, Alberta, Canada, dress

found the stomachs of several birds

By a vote ot 63 to 4 the Kentucky

whoso parents object to him.
Delegates to Booster Meet
Us In such a meeting, and to appoint

,of this club to further the purposes
herein referred to.
Wo would find It advisable, prob
ably, to limit the discussion and act
ilon at tbU meotlng to the subjeet
stated so that wo may got something
definite In tbe way ot actios. It
would probably be best to have a
good big Joint committee appointed
to discuss ways and means to further
thla end. and let, big meeting start
off tho work.
We should be glad to hear from
you In this regard. Can we dlgaad
upon a delegation from your club to
such a meeting; and what date would
you suggest? We would be glad, to
have any suggestion you may offer la
the matter.
