Your citizens are made ot the right material to make a town suc- cessful if it is possible sotodo But if Foster ever assumes huge pro- portions no credit will be dfle the Foster-Keifer- Wade-Pace combina- nation, that sucked the honey and left the wormwood and gall. If Judge Gantt saw proper to com- mend jury and witnesses when at- tacked by a convicted murderer, he must, it seems, be abused eight months later for it. The friend of law, the believers in the integrity of our junes and the truthtulness of our ciuzens, will not think any better of the Record for its assault. t Surely the man, usually fair minded enough, who lent his paper to the schemer—whose pur- pose it 1s to beat Judge Gantt by any means, will not think -tetter of him- self.
