JR., and STACK. PARKER k CRAIG, Attys. for Caveators. Prof. White Say Joint Disraudoa Between Morrison ami Parker Would Out-Draw a Ten-Cent Cigar. To th Editor of The Journal: Having learned from a friend of mine la Cleveland cdunty that a recent contribution from my pen appeared la your columns last week, and that not more than half of th sturdy citizenship of classic Union clamored for my life. this Is to tender an other message. The friend to whom I allude as bearer of welcome tid ings is not a statesman; and has no! congressional nar guberantorlal bee in his bonnet. All such men iu Cleveland are regarded as freaks; j for the majority hive a mission ofj saving the State; and when once, elected or appointed, seldom die and j never resign. It is even rumored hat Frank Limerick left here to es cape the cares and responsibilities of statecraft, having declared that he would rather suffer private life in the precincts of Monroe than to dwell In 1 the tents of the office-monger Inj Cleveland: and for this his genera tion will rise up and bless his memory. Many of the people to whom po litical polemic warfare is the breath of their nostrils, are yearning for a joint discussion at Shelby between Hon. J. J. Parker, the Plumed Re publican Knight from Monroe, and Cam Morrison the Red Shirt Chieftan and Democratic standard bearer from Charlotte. A political discussion will out-draw a ten-cent cigar in Shelby; and something like a thousand yoo men who supported O. Max Gardner on July 3rd, 1920, will hail Parker with glad acclaim and vote for him in November, according to Im memorial custom. Among other causes for thanking GoJ and taking courage, is the fact that the seasons have lately become propitious, and the early and latter rains have blessed vegetal fn. Your uncle Corn Cracker is a very horny handed, sun-browned farmer; but does not swell his coffers with farm products. He plants and cultivates; but it requires all his salary as a teacher to pay for farm fertilizers and the gospel, and his cotton I money to pay a blacksmith. Later. he has to replenish his wardrnh i for society is very exacting in its de-1 m.mds; and if u teacher wears the a:iie s'.iivt nsr.ve than three veel;s I,: .v.iccess ion lie Is talked about.

He j held to the clothing, and Informed my envoy, in pigeon English, that j nothing iel't his shack without a re-; turn of the hieroglyphics. I sent an other envoy, w ho hud n local repu-: tniion as a lingui.-t and a diplomat, j He was blasphemed in th name ofj every heulhen deity In the Orient.! and returned fruitless. Later. 1 passed his Joint and saw that he had clothes advertised for sale, as the hand-bill slated, to pay "costee wasW." I reported In the proper person and assured that that he would, make the nineteenth heathen Chinese I had killed: all about laun dry bills. He was the largest China man I ever saw; and locked his door and flourished his smoothln;: Iron. I knew that the game liws ol Wilson protected a Chink, J-.t.-t like those of Kentucky do a hore. Ohio a nigger cr C'.evelaid county a dog or a politician. So. In language of the celebrated Kit Carson, I fou-d mvself tfed o:i the around and badl foiled. Sc. I hunted a patron an ! friend 'io v. s built like the late John L. SulRv'M, and, withal, a man or (i-.-pcri'e vvlor. I told him I was grow ng oil, v.as s man of peace; and v.'hl!

He suggested that he had a r.il'.d n.id coiviiio'ng wny. with the slant-eyed but errln ; brethren of the East; and believed he could convince him of Ms error. We repaired to ih Joint, and my friend glared at him like a locomotive head light of the d.mble-barreled variety, and said: "?ay, you d d orange - colored thief: I want four No. 17 dress shirts, twelve standing collars of same num ber, three under shirts and three pairs of drawers." The towering, slant-eved paean called for his pa per. "Paper be d d." was the re joinder, "we want clothes." Again the Chinaman demurred; and about that limo the door flew off Its hinges a Chinaman was seized by the throat. shaken; and informed that bis soul wold soon be marching with that of John Brown if clothes were not forthcoming. The diplomatic and persuasive powers of my friend were remarkable. The apparel was found and delivered. and I tendered the now chastened heathen eighty-three cents, current money with the mer clnnt. I told my confederate I had never been gifted with the ollv graces of a diplomat; and he said I had doubtless been too rough with the tin tutored Celestial. I told him that he could, doubtless, win the Imperish able gratitude of an unspeakable Turk; (fhd he said he hod always been successful with the follower of the Prouhet but sometimes he had to knock one senseless Jo convince him.
