Comment.
A. J. NEFF & Sons,

We call attention to the card of
w. L. Welcker, which appears in
this issue. He is again announced
as q candidate for the Office which
he formerly administered for six
years. 1t is but just and due to say
of Mr.. Welcker, that he bears the
reputation, among those who know
him, as a gentleman of high char
acter and ripe legal attachments,
and we have no doubt, if elected,
he would give an acceptable and
impartial administration. So with
Mr.. Owens and Mr.. Welcker before
the people we are assured of an ac-
ceptable Attorney General.

positively forbids its use.
2-Was God displeased with
those wise men, whom they claim

the time of the Bible. God said of
his priests and prophets in Isaiah
the twenty. eighth and seventh:
"The priests and prophets have
erred through strong drink, are
