JUDGE WIN. YOUNG FOR CONGRESS.

Judge VIM. Young, of this county,
who has announced himself as q candl-
date tor congress from this, the seventh
district, is in every way worthy to be
advanced to the position he asks. Born
and reared in Lafayette county, OF old
Tennessee pioneer stock. his father being
an able Judge and his uncle, Governor
Young, for many years a prominent
man in state politics. he has grown
up q student OF the habits. temperament
and necessities of the people OF his Sec
ton. AS a mere youth he enlisted in
the southern army. and proved his de-
votion to his convictions by gallant SER
vice until the battle OF Wilson Greek.
where he lost his left arm and part OF
his right hand. We do not mention his
service IN the confederate army as a
claim for support now, but only IN il
lustration of his earnestness of purpose.
Immediately after the war Judge Young
i'd ntiiied himself with tho public affairs
of this county. and in all its trials,
whether political or financial. has borne
q full part. and always in the interest OF
the people. He was the first democratic
sheriff OF the county and his term had
expired but a short time when he was
called TO the county bench. TO assist in
placing upon q better basis the large
bonded debt which had been saddled
upon the people. To his business tact
and clear head much of the success which
the county has met in adjusting its debt
is due. Two Years ago he was elected
prosecuting attorney of the county. and
he has conscientiously and ably filled
that office. a forcible and logical
speaker. a correct r%easoner. at I'M
wavering democrat and an honest man,
Judge Young. If elected to congress.
will make a faithful member and one
who will be heard on the live issues OF
the day. Lafayette county. which
has not had a congressman since the
Hon. +. 2. AkerS filled q short term
many Years ago. which has the largest
democratic vote in the district, and
which will always be found true to the
great party of the future, will modestly
present Judge Young's name to the con-
yention TOR consideration.

~ oaio AGkls ofo
GEO. NJ. MoUNTJoY, ESQ dear Sir:-I am
just in receipt oil your favor of the 18th, in
which you state you We're elected sheriff of your
county in 1874, and again in 1876, AMI ask my
opinian as 10 your eligibility TO the same Office
tor another term. OF course, | do not wish it
view Of interfering with the local elections of
your county, but do so. AS | would in the case of
any other client, calling for an opinion in any
other matter pertaining 10 my profession.
Your election i'll 1874 was under the provisions
Of the constitution of 1865, which provided that
the sheriff Of any county should be .'eligible four
years i'll any period of eight. - or in other words,
period OF eight years. The consultation of 1865
went ont OF existence on the Both day of Nov,
1879, when the present constitution went into
effect. Under Sec. 10 of Art. TX of The latter
instrument. provision Is made Tor the election
of a sheriff in each county in the state who are
made eligible tor that Office ''only four wears in
u period of sir year5.' The provisions under
VIII he readily seen. are SO repuRnant that those
under the constitution of ISIS cannot be con-
strued As Il continuation of the provisions of the
constitution of 1865; hence the latter were totally
repealed by the former, so that your election in
1876 could in no manner be effected by the pro-
visions of the constitution OF 1865 that being
at that date Il ''dead letter." Does then, See.
10 OF Art IN OF the present constitution, effect
soa in the present election This section was
evidently intended to he wholly prospective in
its operation; II Is not y continuation of the Sec
ton of the constitution OF lS7a on the same sub
ject. hence IL must be treated rs q new and orig
inai enactment, and can only effect officers
elected under its provisions. AS therefore, you
have only held the Office two years under it, /
am cieary of the opinion that you are eligible
for another term. Very respectfully,
JSD, A.

Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1878-03-20

The penetrating winds incident
to this season of the year are a
severe ordeal for the lungs. The
neglect of hard cough generally
leads to weakness OF the lungs,
which, not infrequently, results in
consumption.
Schenck's Pulmontic Syrup will
at once relieve and loosen a tight
cough and is such an agreeable
remedy that children will take it
without being coaxed. A cold
on the lungs, if consumption is not
already developed, may be easily
mastered by the use Of the Pull
monte Syrup, together with
Schenck's Mandrake Pills to clear
the system of the accumulated
mucus.
In more serious cases, where the
disease has become deeply seated,
and the patient suffers from loss of
appetite, weakness and emaciation,
Scoenck's Sea Weed Tonic should
be used in Connection with the above
mentioned remedies, to stimulate
the appetite and bring the diges-
tive powers into healthy action,
thereby sustaining the strength of
the patient and enabling him to
resist the progress of the disease
until the Pulmonic Syrup may
perform its healing and cleaning
work.
The use of these standard reme-
dies according to the directions
which accompany them, cannot
fail to produce most satisfactory
results. A letter addressed to DR..
Schenck cor. Sixth and Arch St.,
Philadelphia, asking advice, will
promptly receive the Doctors per-
sonal attention, free of charge.
Schenck's Medicines are for sale
by all druggists. M4w
