evening. and elected the following officers for
the ensuing year: President. Ion. ID C Loolman m ;
Vice President, J Fl. Dussel; Secretary, E. Y.
Lacey; Treasurer. Geo. F. Douthftt; Sergeant
at Arms. james Webb; Finance Committee, &.
K. Twitt j. z. Herley and Arthur Lee.
The membership rolls of the club contain ITO
names. While this certainly indicates lively
interest in sustaining permanent county DEM
ocratic organization and is gratifying evidence
of the desire to perpetuate the raternal feelings
between men of the same political faith there
are many names that should be added to the
list. The club gives to every voter in the county
an opportunity of Identifying himself with a
society created for the purpose of disseminating
the doctrines peculiar to the great party of tie
people. affording better facilit es for stuuying q
its principles and becoming thoroughly aquaint-
ed with its history and purposes. Every elect
or in the county who believes in popular sover-
eighty and equality before the law. should becme
a member of the Thurman Club. where his efforts
for the advancement of the only party repre-
senting those ideas will be Joined to the great
potentiality of united action. The Democracy
OF the county are to be congratulated in having
the privileges and advantages of such an Or
ganiZation and we hope to see its membership
trebled before the campaign is over.

Wealth is not his who gets it, but his

For what thou can do thyself, rely moi

The highest point to which things car

Abstainlng from criticism by no means
implies tame and weak submission to
evils as such. Let all paper warfare be
waged against vice and crime and wrong
of every kind; but for those whom we
imagine to be identified with these evil,
let US have only charity and sympathy and
desire to help, if possible. Their guilt in
their peculiar circum. tances may be far
less than our own. But for their improve
ment and happiness We may be largely
responsible if we search the good that is
in them if we cherish and develop it by
loving and respecting it in them, and
thus winning their esteem and sympathy,
we may possibly disentangle them from
the evil.

One of the elements of our happiness
springs from the fact that We do not

the pleasure of life is shattered and
blighted by n unreasonable anticipation
OF coming evil! How much happiness
would be lost If man knew he would be
sick to morrow, that friend was to be
stricken down, that mercantile venture
to come He would have no heart for
the smile and laughter and sunshine of
to-day glad and bright though it might
be if he were overshaded with the cloud
of certain misfortune that was to come on
the morrow.

The digestive system is wholly out Of

a symptom or the two may alternate. There
are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood
There may be giddiness and often headache
