FOT NcSistcT oi Dccus-Sohh - Duhc.
1t is with pleasure we announce the
nomination of our respected towns
man, John s. Duflie, for the office of
Register of Deeds for this county. A
better selection for the position could
not have been made and we must say
that is a most excellent choice.
Mr.. Duflie is thoroughly qualified to
ill the position and will make reli.
able and pains taking officer. He has
been a resident of st Clair Co. for over
twenty years, the last fifteen years in
Brockway Centre, and during that
time has been one Of our most active,
energetic and progressive business
men. always foremost and most liber-
al in every enterprise calculated to
benefit and advance the interests Of
the town. He has filled many town
offices, has been Township Supt of
Schools, Supervisor, Town Clerk and
is now filling his fourth term as Justice
of the Peace. He has always discharg-
ed his duties with credit to himself
and to the entire satisfaction of the
people. His pleasant and gentlemanly
bearing and uniform courtesy has
made him many warm friends among
all political parties. He always has
been and will continue to be the honest
friend and helper of the workingmen.
-Four years ago he ran on the Green
back ticket for the same Office and re-
ceived larger vote than any candidate
on his ticket. Mr.. Duflie will not be a
weight TO his ticket this fall for he is
an active and energetic worker and
will undoubtly make thorough cam
vass. We speak for him cordial
support from all irrespective of
party-who desire thorough and

Merton. Youngest son of j. S.
Duflie, met with an accident last
Wednesday afternoon about five
o'clock. He, with some other boys,
were putting flags in around the win
dow in the Masonic Hall and the chair
on which he was standing tipped
throwing him out of the window. The
result would probably have been fatal
had he not struck on the fronts cor
nice, projection of about two feet,
which broke his fall. He struck on
the top of his head on the hard side
walk below and when picked up was
unconscious. DIR. Mitchell was sum-
moned and done what was in his pow
er to relieve the little sufferer. The
poor little fellow lay for twenty-four
hours unconscious of where he was
but finally revived and is now doing
splendidly. 1t is great wonder that
there were no bones broken as the
distance from the chair in the Masonic
Hall where he was standing to the
ground is about fifteen feet.
