For County Treasurer.

In today's issue will be found the
announcement of Ed. Anderson, coun-
ty treasurer, for reelection. Mr.. An
derson has held the office for the past
three years, and has made a most ex-
cellent and worthy officer, always
prompt and pleasant to all with whom
he comes in contact and it can be
truthfully said that he is one of the
most popular officers in the county,
running Independent he was first
elected by majority OF 500, and his
second race characterized by the in
creased majority of 1900. Young as
he is in official life this is quite cred
liable showing and attests the conf
dence and esteem in which he is held
by his fellow citizens, and if reelected
the county finances will be in safe and
competent hands as they have been
in the past.

a loud and clear tone and was listen

applause.
The audience evidently was thor
oughly in sympathy with the speaker

A Successful Conundrum,

"Cholly has never given you ring'"
said Florence.
Never" said Carrie.
"And he never will until you ask him
for it,"
"Then may never get one."
"Of course you never will. Cholly is too
stupid to think of such things, and if you
never pluck up courage to ask for it, you'll
never get it,"
That evening Cholly called. The beauti-
full girl by his side had been for several
weeks pledged to marry with him as soon
as the business could be properly trans
acted
"Cholly," Carrie inquired at length, look
ing up with an innocent smile, do you
know what conundrum isf"

"There is no beauty

age. Instead it encour-

With a name upon its breast.

In its cotfined, peaceful sleep,

Shall lean l, fear them more

Clouds which fall upon its bier?

that Adlai, or whoever wrote the

Federal Elections bill of the Fifty

omitted to allege that that bill gave

Col. John A. Cockrell. the slayer of
Fishback, one of the leading lights Of
Democracy, in his letter TO the New

Colonies up 10 Maine to instruct the
voters he could have had a Republic
can vote large enough TO please the
most fastidiOus. If you want 10 hear
from a humble bees nest it is only ne
ccssary TO do a little beating up in the
neighborhood. 1t is expected now
that the Democrats will do some de-
lirious gambling on Cleveland and
will in the end lose both their caudl-
date and money. He (Cleveland) likes
to talk about tariff reform because
that doesn't mean ANYTHING at all, but
his party having squareiy committed
against all forms of protection in its
devotion to the constitution will not
DC tritied with now. If Cleveland
either attempts to shade or repudiate
the Chicago expression the free trade
clement will rise and smitc him"
This is a sample of the Democratic
harmony in the great state of New
York. Yet, we have men foolish
enough to say Cleveland will be
elected. BOsh,

even comfort now-of q sclt-denying

The "First Voters OF 1892.

There are n million or more vi
young men who were between II and

voters and who will cast their first
ballot for President on the Sth of
November next. To these voters
the Republican party appeals with
confidence and hope.
The Republican party is still, as it
always,has been, the party o~fprogress,
of positive convictions, of action. AS
such it appeals especially to young
men. This year it appeals with more
confidence than ever, because the
malign influence of the doctYinaire

has been so largely n~eutralized.

An honest English Opinion.

The Echo, a leading English one
cent paper, with an immense popular
circulation, has some good words iii
approval of President IIarrison's let
ter accepting the Republican nominal
ton. The Echo says:
Among other things he advocates
the increase of the number of "'largc
fast sailing merchant vessels" and so
constructed Is to be of service TO the
government in case of war or other
emergency. This is rather signifi-
cant. 1t indicates two things. First,
that the United States want TO ap-
pear as strong as they are i'll reality;
and second, they viii endeavor to re-
gain the relative position they &C.
cupied on the wide seas before the
great siaycholding Rebellion. There
a be no doubt that American ship
ping received a mighty blow from
the pirate ships ordered and paid for
Ky the South, and fitted out in
England; and that 5Wt for ALabomas
the commercial marine of the States
would not hare seeded. For years
past they have been making up for
LOST ground, and are now resolved to
achieve more signal progress.
Anglo-Amcrican free traders would
do well TO take note OF the frankness
of this popular English newspaper in
ascribing the decline of American
shipping TO the damage wrought by
the Alabamas paid for by the South
and fitted out by England. The
is as true as the confession
is honest. 1t was England that ruin
ed Il commercial marine under the
flag of our free trade Confcdcracy:
