Now we don't know who started it but wo do know that it is a wilful and malicious falsehood, born In the mind of some one who couldn't speak the truth and say anything against Joo Robbins. lies may win, but we don't believe it.

Joo Robbins has voted for Republicans who were his neighbors and his friends, and no doubt would do it again. Tho Globe (in Its mind) docs us up in great shape this week, and of course wo feel very much like tho man who was kicked by the long-eared animal. He likens us to that stately tree which wears its beautiful garments all the year, and whose branches are used to weave garlands of welcome in every house in the land when all the world is cold and dreary, and all other things green (like the squash across the way) has been bitten by the early frost. for the sake of your folks at home, who, no doubt, through natural afi'ections, would mourn yOuf untimely end, don't go out these cool nights. All the time we ever spend on the Globe Is in trying to read it, despite the many errors.

They have tried him, they know him, and they will vote for him next Tuesday. Mr.

Hargrove lives in Caneyville township. He Is well qualified, and is a man whom his neighbors love to honor, as we must infer from the fact that 00 Republicans of his township signed a petition asking him to be a candidate.
