Some of them are in favor of building a new one at Adams--about the same number at Wooten's, and others think Starkville the most suitable place. There is still another party who wish the county divided--adding the lower districts to Dougherty, and the upper to Sumter. Without intending to meddle in Lee politics, we will say that this county would willingly incorporate such territory as Lee county may desire to relinquish. Whatever move is made on this subject, however, should originate with the people, by instructions to their Senator and Representative.
