x THE PARR PICNICi

The political picnic at Sparr yester-day

¬

was a great success consideringthe threatening weather of the morn-Ing and the rain that began fallingabout 10 oclock Which drove the peo-ple

¬

i from the grove to the school housef5 I tior shelter fjfi Mr LeeGranthaJni 1 the young com-

mitteemana from that section presidedtt

i I and proved an unusually acceptablett presiding officer Mr Light opened thek l speaking The program was varied

and not all the legislative candidatesJ I Sftoke in succession but other county

1 Office aspirants intervenedThe speaking was continued at the

L Schoolhouse uritij 130 when ihe rainIi I ceasing the crowd repaired to the picl I

rife grounds where dinner was speadII pnd suqlvai dinner We wonder how5 I can It b6 possible to sdrpass the spread-

S this and that precinct that rally to-

y

J eartO candidates but the lastk eeemsUut thls In part only exists Ini the imagination All the same the

ladies pf Sparr fairly outdid them-selves

¬l5t

in their culinary effortsNothing special or sensational de-

veloped¬

in the peaking The argu-ments

¬

V used were about the same MrLigfht said he was the man for thefcgislature to pull up the suckeis and-assurecl the Voters that he would make

W

legislation that would dig up the 160r

3 millions of wealth arid place it on th-ef J lax books where it cpuld be assessedl

1 Mr W L Martin the Sparr candi-date

¬4j for the legislature doubted MrJ-

Bi hts statement as just as gooda< r capable and honest men had been sentJ

t tb tl1 legSlttur before and they nevS feLl did succeed And the editor of the

felar emarked that unless Mr LightL or oritiother manxbrought about the

fTnllennium and made every mana-

X n eeJt and lowly fpllOvWer of the Saviort of mankind arid do as Christ would

sv nave done when hjp was on earth theame old human nature would act as

1 I

f it bad in the past about this tax mat-S

7 fer I

tOf course all the camUdates made

profuse promises for economy but-S

I iavored for the continuancett end improvement of public utilities

whlon of course does not do away1 with taxation

The editor of the Star had to assurer the pqop1etf Sparr strange as it mayM jobay e led that he was not the can

t4 y dldaof the saloon vmen and the abase-J iepOj t that they Iriduc d him to run

vax false He assured the audiencethat If sent to Tallahassee hed would

hiJ be the last man in legislature to

tir deny th people ofthe state the priviiege gnted them by our republican

JfBt1t lon to express their wishes attrt l the as to whether they desired
