have yonr hand in on the tx
;rsvaganUe and carele-Sness q
the Court House ring, will you
inquire OF The public what be-
comes OF all the chairs that are
bought for the Court House2 !
suppose, rom observation, that
the Commissioners buy two or
three dozen every year live
close enough TO the COnr'
House to know that they are
delivered, bur not close enough
10 know where they 60 to. 1t
is certain though that they dis.
appear very rapidly and in a
very mysterious manner; for
enough have been bought to
seat all the Offices and the
Court room many times over,
and there ore not enough lett
to accommodate jury, counsel
and clients in time of Court.
Do oui industrious, economical
county officers break them up
for kirpling, or do they distrib-
ute ihem TO those who help do
tho dirty work for The ring as
payment for their services at
election tineg Please ask the
question and maybe some per
son who knows more than the
general public will give us
light on the subject.
Your, cheerlully.

Of the ticket headed by Mr..

not candidates. The following
gentleman compose The board
elect: w. Il. Langley, W. II.
Eagle, j. j. Cadot, Lewis
Muenz Cornelius Harms, j. NJ.
Kerr, Johh Huhn.
The election was an exciting
contest, the most favorable fea-
ture OF 1t being that most oil
the subscriptions are now paid
up, and the company has the
money to push the enterprise
with more energy, and pay as
they 60. We hope prompt
steps will now be taken to
commence work on this end OF
the road. We believe our peo-
pie will then meet the calls on
them for their subscriptions
cheerfully and promptly.

The True Secret of Commercial
Prosperity.

It's we'll understood fact that ev-
cry man engaged in business desires
success, And it is reasonable to sup
pose that every business man will en-
ploy all honorable and legitimate
means within his reach to increase bis
business. Another fact that is be.
coming better understood every day
by the energetic and thoroagh>going
men Of business throughout the coun.
try, is that a systematic practical and
we'll conducted system Of advertising
will do more toward attaining true
commercial prosperity than any other
agent within their reach. Immense
fortunes are yearly made by those Who
advertise judiciously. Common sense
and every day experience prove that
the cheapest and most effective advsr-
tising medium is the newspaper. 1t
possesses a greater value than can be
given to any other medium. 1t has
been estimated that each newspaper
printed has an average Of five readers
for every copy issued. 1t is a medium
that reaches everybody. The judicious
advertiser understands these facts, and
fully realizes that every dollar ex-
pended in a newspaper will return
more than its equivalent. Business
can not be done without advertising
and the only question should be, the
best way to advertise That the news
paper is the surest and best medium is
beyond question. Cleveland Plain
