Williams, wandered up town, YESTERDAY

little exercis, ejdivested himself of his coat

Mr.. Miles w. Parker, candidate for
county treasurer, is developing unexpected
strength, and his friends predict his cleo
ton by large majority. Everybody
knows that he is scrupulously honest that
he is qualified for the Office, and that being
poor man, he needs the help the Office
