Mr.. L.. A. Lewis, OF barrett tOWuSnlp
announces in this issue as q candidate be-
fore the republican convention for sheriff.
Mr.. Lewis is we'll known republican
worker. Each recurring election has found
him working faithfully and successfully
for the republican nominees. He came
to the county among the earliest settlers
and deserves substantial recognition at
the hands of the republican party of the
county. He is thoroughly competent for
the position he seeks and in case of nom
nation will be elected and make an Of
fcer of which the whole county will ap-
prove.
J.F. Rowland, of Barrett township,
appears this week with his card, an
nounclng himself as a candidate for tine
nomination of county treasurer. He is
one of the county's first settlers, . highly
respected farmer, and possesses the quail
ifcations to make an honest, faithful.
and upright officer. His record is above
reproach, and his friends feel confident
that he is just the man to receive the
nomination.: and if he does there is no
question about his election. He is well
known throughout the county, and will
have strong following in the conven-
ton. He is and always has been q true
loyal republican. continually working for
the party's success.

of wide travel and quick observation,
of deep learning and vast knowledge
of men, but Col. Swopc was by no
means a mediocre man. Both were
thoroughly liked and the constant
watching of their friends to avoid any
accidental meeting Of these enemies
during President uarri5on's inaugural
ton was a matter of common know
ledge
A cab drove to the main entrance to
Wizards last night, and a tall man
alighted and telling the waiting porters
that the baggage was all coming on
the wagon, "doncher-know," passed
through the swinging doors and up
to the desk. The gas light fell upon
blonde whiskers, blonde clothes, a great
plaid cape top coat, a big diamond
emblem scarf pin and an enormous
diamond ring. The clerk, a grizzled
veteran in the business, was charmed.
The stranger wrote on the register,
"Sir William Mackenzie" and Sir
Roger Mackenzie and wife" He Or
dered parlor and three chambers
with private bath rooms, and added
that Sir Roger and my lady would ar
rive by the next train from New York
and that everything be prepared and
''of the best" The clerk was over
whelmed. Nothing as gorgeous had
been seen in that hotel since the war;
So when moment later Sir William
remembered that he must send cable
gram and "by jove, hadn't a pound
about him. the clerk joyfully handed
him twenty dollar bill from the cash
drawer. Remember that this clerk
has been in the hotel business for twen-
ty years, then think of that bogus lord
say rather king of cheek-passing
through the telegraph Office and drift
ing out into the night to be seen of
that clerk no more The same indivi-
dual played the same game at three
hotels in less than an hour and the
police have not found him yet.
| Vice President Morton takes with
becoming good humor the seething
criticisms of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union at their Chicago
Convention. He simply says that in
| giving permission as property holder
for the sale of liquor in his new hotel,
the Shorehan, he was merely acting
the part of a good business man. There
is not high class hotel in Washington
without bar and wine served at table.
There were formerly two small tenn
perance hotels conducted by ladies, but
one of these bankrupted two months
ago and the other is really only cot
fee house with few rooms attached
for the semi-occasional guests. The
Importance of a hotel bar is not alone
in its direct profit. 1t helps hold Gus
tom for nine tenths of the richer hotel
guests will not stop at a caravansary
that is without bar.

THE BALLOT REFORM OUT
LOOK.

It was again demonstrated on Tues
day last that the Australian voting
system can be made to work very sat
isfactorily in this country. Massachu-
sets tried it in an important election
and the result pleased the people. The
old argument that votes cannot be
polled fast enough under that system
no longer has any point since Mas5a-
chusetts has given it fair trial and
comes out very strong in its favor, de-
claring that there was no delays, and
that many more votes could have Eeen
got in had there been more voters
Ballot reform will certainly come, and
soon too. 1t will be adopted in every
State in the Union, and the people will
be better off for its adoption. Bosses
are not in favor of it for reasons very
well known to many, but it will come
regardless of the bosses.
New Jersey, will be the next State
to adopt a secret voting system, if
promises before election amount to
anything. Governor-elect Albeit said
in every county in the State during the
recent campaign that he was strongly
in favor of ballot reform, of a secret
ballot, and that if elected he would do
all in his power to have such law
passed. Members of the next Legisla-
ture, for more than a majority, are
pledged to vote for such a voting sys-
tenn. The Republicans have the Sen
ate and the Democrats the Assembly,
so the responsibility for either enacting
or refusing to enact is about equally
divided. In Pennsylvania the pros
poets are not so bright, but when the
Legislature meets again it is probable
that such bill as demanded by the
people will be introduced and perhaps
passed.

SAYING NO.

There is perhaps no word in the
English language which signifies so
much as the word no.
1t is word which all of us should
know how to say ; and not only should
we know how to say it, but we should
know how to say it so that all people
may understand that we do not mean
yes that we are not altogether indif-
ferent upon the subject but that we
have said no: that we mean no and
no it shall be, so far as we are con-
cerned.
By not knowing how to say no, there
are many, who have been led into
temptation, who have lost their positions
in society, and have been made wrecks
of, with, perhaps, many brilliant an
ticipations and all because they did
not have the decision of character, the
moral courage to say that simple mono
syllable no.
1t is a sad thought to come into
ones mind, that so many of the rising
generation lack this decision of charac-
ter, that so many of those into whose
hands the government of this country
is soon to be intrusted, have not sufi-
cient will of their own to say no. But
while parents continue to bring VI
their children as the majority Of them
do now, this state of things will remain
unchanged.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular Correspondent
Washington, D. c., Nov. II, 1889.


Washington, D. c., Nov. II, 1889.
Ex-President Cleveland's visit to
Washington last week to witness the
Bayard-Clymer wedding was at a time
singularly significant. He came back
to Washington for the first time since
the close of his administration with his
party in the first flush of a splendid
victory. His call upon President
Harrison was the call of victor upon
a vanquished foe, for of course Mr..
Cleveland insists upon taking a person
al view of the result in Iowa, Ohio and
Virginia and attributes it all to the
growth Of the tariff reform movement
throughout the country. President
Cleveland has grown much stouter, in
fact enormously and distressingly fat,
since last March. He must weigh
over three hundred and fifty pounds.
His wife, on the other hand, is more
winsome than ever. The haggard,
drawn look Of the society leader is
gone. No care rests on her.
Another man who takes purely
personal view of the result is Corporal
Tanner, who was the head of the Pen
sion Bureau for a shorter time than
any bureau Of cabinet officer ever
reigned before He states that the de-
feat of the Republican party is due to
the treatment he received from the ad-
ministration. He sees in the result the
hand of Divine Power operating for
the overthrow Of the enemies of the
elect. No more gigantic selfsnficiency
was ever seen.
Among the Department clerks and
small officials of Republican faith the
belief that President Harrison is large
ly the blame for the defeat is manifest.
He has succeeded in making hundreds
of distasteful appointments throughout
the country, and he has Withheld from
appointing good ones. Postmaster
General Wanamaker's disregard for
men who have done good party service
and appointments of men recommen-
ded sorely by religious socialties is also
given as potent cause for the evident
dissatisfaction among Republicans.
Mahone's defeat is secretly regarded
with satisfaction. Malone has neither
the respect nor the confidence of the
Republican leaders apart from Quay
and Dudley.
Virginia is essentially Democrat
State and the only way to carry it for
the Republicans is to spend a unit of
money and give every man in the
state who will not work for his living
a clerkship in the departments here.
This has been substantially the plan
and only the occasional restraining
influence of the civil service law has
made victory for Malone impossible.
The news of the Goodloe-Swope
tragedy so affected the President that
he dropped the book he was reading to
the floor. | knew Col. Swope and
Col. Goodloe WELL The latter was

Facts Worth Knowing.

In all diseases of the nasal mucous
membrane the remedy must be non-irrita-
ting. The medical profession has been
slow to learn this. Nothing satisfactory
can be accomplished with douches, snufs,
powders or syringes, because they are ir-
ritating, do not thoroughly reach the af-
fected surfaces and should be abandoned
as worse than failures A multitude of
persons who had for years borne all the
worry and pain that catarrh can infict,
testify to radical cures wrought by Ely's

A PLEAsANT VoIcE.-There is no
power Of love so hard to get and keep
as a kind voice. A kind hand is deaf
and dumb. 1t may be rough in flesh
and blood, yet do the work of a soft
heart, and do it with soft touch.
But there is no one thing that love so
much needs as a sweet voice to tell
what it means and feels, and it is hard
to get and keep it in the right tone.
One must start in youth and be on the
watch night and day, at work, at play,
to get and keep voice that shall speak
at all times the thought of kind heart.
| would say to all the boys and girls:
"Use a kind voice at home" Watch
it day by day as pearl of great price,
for it will be worth to you in days to
come more than the best pearls hid in
the sea. A kind voice is lark's song
to hearth and home. 1t is to the heart
what light is to the eye..
