Mr.. Geo. V. Willing, of Manch es
ter, Mich, writes: My wife has
been almost helpless for five years
so helpless that she could not turn
over in bed alone. She used two
bottles OF Electric Ritters, and 1880
much improved. that she is able
now to do her own work."
Electric Bitters Will do al that is
claimed for them. Hundreds of
testimonials attest their great cura-

The committee, consisting of
Auditor and Commissioners, ap-
piled the money collected in the
purchase of d handsome gold
watch and chain.
By the skiliful management Of
Commissioners Karshner and
Trimmer, it was found out that
Bill Woodruff wanted gold
watch and intended buying one
as soon as he retired from office.
His friends anticipated his wishes
and we are sure tie watch he
carries Will be all he more high

Testimonial to a stetIriHe
County Officer.

1t has become rule among us
Hooking County HawEaters to
give our out going officials trib-
ute and testimonial. 1t is a fea-
ture of our social and political
customs which the Sentinel lnau-
gurated ten years ago, and which
has been faithfully observed ever
since.
There can be no suspicion of
an attempt to wrongfully influ-
ence by a substantial testimonial
when the official is retiring to
private life. 1t would be a ques
tionable proceeding TO meet the
man just coming into office with
a present. This we do not do
But when public officer has
served out his term and retires
to private life, if his official con-
duct inspires the feeling, then it
is Inst, right and proper" that
a public expression be given
which compliments the man and
does not compromise the public.
Bill Woodruff has served two
terms as County Commissioner.
1t is the most disaereeable and
thankless office in the county,
The commissioners called upon
to do things his judgment does
not sanction. He is asked to al
low bills his sense of justice will
not favor. When he does what
is right. no one thinks of giving
him credit. because it is thought
he should do right. When he
refuses to build a bridge or allow
a bill, he is abused. criticised and
misrepresented. He is the Scape
Goat upon whom is cast all, or
at least great deal of the grumb-
ling that the people give ont.
and never receives the praise and
credit that is rightly his due.
Time, however, appealing to
and counseling with honesty and
intelligence, makes all things
even." and in the case of pub
lie official, sizes him up to about
what he is worth.
This is the case with Commits
sioner Woodruff. He never
,ourted the mob. He acted on
he principle of official response
oility, and cared not whether his
lcts were popular Or unpopular.
lie aimed to do right.
His friends recognized the fact
hat he was a good Commits
ioner.
Last week Mr.. Will Bowen. |
equity Auditor,and Messrs Trim
ner and Karshner, his associate
commissioners. conspired togeth-
r to make Mr.. Woodruff a tesh-
im0nial of a substantial kind. in
ecognition of his worth as a
ubiic officer, retiring to private
fe.
A paper was prepared and con-
.ibutions for the purchase Of a
sstimonial was quietly cjrculat
/. The only complaint we hear {
from gentlemen, friends of !
[r. Woodruff. who were not ap :
