Nevada County picayune., 1886-04-14

| MT. l. M. Neel, IS lylnS SerlOuSly i'll, We are sorry to learn.
 Capt. John Parker comes to the front as a candidate for reelection to the office of Tax Assessor. He has made an acceptable officer the past two years, and deserves sec term. See his announcement. Mir Isham Mack comes out this week as a candidate for Sheriff. He is an energetic, clever gentle man, and his claims upon the Dem. ocratic party should be well con- sidered. Isham is also well.known to all our readers as a man of worth and sterling integrity.
 Oscar Phillips. the present in cumbent announces this week for re- election to the office of Sheriff. Mr P. by the common rule, is enti- tied to a second term. He is an upright, honorable and worthy gen tleman, we'll known to the people of the county, as sound Demo. crat.
 By reference to proper place, it can be seen that Rev G w Reeves, of Bourland's Store, announces himself a candidate for the Legis- lature this week. Mir K is we'll known in the county. He is we'll qualified to fill the office to which he aspires, by education and life spent among the people.
 Mir c w Ieake, of Prescott, is announced in this issue, es a can didate for county and circuit clerk. For several years he has held the office of city recorder here, accept ably to the people. He is one of our leading Democrats, and should tho party recognize his claims, would doubtless make good officer. Judge c. A. Hale, the present incumbent, is out in this issue as a candidate for reelection for coun- ty and probate judge. He is a pure Democrat, a high-toned gen tleman, popular with the mass, es, and is entitled to a second term, and will in the future as in the past, do his duty as he under stands it.
 Our Mir. Geo. Christopher has just returned from St. Louis, where he purchased one of the largest stocks, consisting of staple and fancy drygoods, clothing, hats, caps and shoes, ever brought to Prescott. Having paid the cash, we are therefore enabled to sell lower for cash than ever before.
 HATLEY & CHRISTOPHER.
 The editor of this paper believes in "boiling things down.' We have no room for long wiuded ar- ticles on any subject. Sorry we are compelled to consign "Brick's" (of Clayton) article on the school tax to the waste basket, on account of it's length.
 We do not object to suggestions as to who would make good county officers, but to the announcement as to who arc candidates, when they have not regularly announced themselres in the usual way. We make this statement, as some have misunderstood us.
 Willis Wilson brought a huge catamOunt to town Monday, caught in steel trap on Little Missouri river a week or two since. His catship was quite ferocious. It measured nearly three feet in length, and was as tall as a con- mon sized dog. The animals tail was short and stub like.

 "Most of these hair preparations don't work" writes Mir. J. s. Bur dick, of St Louis, "but Parker's Hair Balsam is an honorable ex- ception. My hair was thin and prematurely gray. The Balsam made it brown again and soft as in my boyhOod."
 Aches and pains long borne make even the young feel old. The true remedy is Parker's Tonic. It purifies the blood, sets in order the liver and kidneys, banishes pain and builds up the health. Besides it has the reputation of doing what we claim for it.
