Rev. E. E. Bomar left for his home,
Spartansburg, S. c., on last Thursday,
His farewell talk was made at prayer
meeting of the Baptist church on
Wednesday night. 1t abounded in ten.
derDesss and sympathy. He charged
his congregation to be earnest and
faithful. He would assure them that
the work here Is in q condition for
marked progress. In telling them
goodbye it was with pangs of regret,
for truly he did not love to tear away
from old friends to form new acquaint-
ances. Mr.. Bomar, since his resigns =.
nation here had declined several yer,
flattering calls. He has not fully de-
cided, but 1t Ia more than probable
he will locate at Roanoke, Va. Mrs.
Bomar, accompanied by her children
and Mr.. Horace Bomar, left for the
South Friday of last week. Large
numbers of the membership of the
church and friends met them at the
church to say goodbye. No pastor who
ever held in higher esteem or sppre-
ciated more by the Baptist congrega-
tion than was Mr.. Bomar and wife.
He has accomplished a great work
here and at Howard Mills. He was
recalled to the pastorste Of this church
with an increased salary, but finding
duty called him elsewhere, 1t was de-
clined. The prayers and best wishes
of all good people follow them.

The list of candidates offering fol
positions of trust are of our very best
material, and it is difficult to make q
choice; but then this must be done,
Democrats must do their duty by Sc.
lecting from this array of good men

done there will be no reason for dis.
satisfaction. The contest now on is a
friendly one, and Judgment and cool
heads will bring to pass that most de.
sired result.

w. B. O'Cennell Is a candidate for
County Clerk, subject SO the action OF
the Democratic party. Do you know
himr Doubtless you do. He has been
Deputy Clerk for eleven years, doing
the arduous work of the Office and
meeting business men as pleasantly as
he would his sweetheart, the business
being transacted agreeably, promptly
and correctly. After being a sub. for
many years he now thinks he is enti-
tied 10 promotion, and asks the people
to consider his claims.
Will O'Connell is a model young
man, a gentleman always and an Of
fetal who allows no one to go by him
in the accuracy and neatness of the
work in his Office. Twice has he APP
peared before the State Board of
Equalization in the interest of the tax
payers of the county, and each time he
has succeed in having the per cent. the
Board had added to the valuation of
the property in the county, very ma
terially reduced.
He will not allow us to allude to the
fact that the sorrows and reverses of
life have left some dear ones depend
ent upon him, but simply asks the
people to accept his past record as an
earnest of what he will do in the tu-
ture. He asks your careful considera-
ton of his claims on the party.

Mr.. Adam Baum asks us to say to
the people Of the city, he is candi.
date for Mayor, subject to the action
of the Democratic party. L; is to be
borne in mind that under the new
charter, the Mayor is vested with an
increased amount of responsibility.
Mr.. Baum is one of the largest
property holders in the city; has had
much experience in the conduct of
city affairs, and feels keen interest
in the welfare of Mt. Sterling. He is
an active business man, a wide awake
progressive citizen, an advocate for
everything that will tend to the up
building of the city and her interests.
The people know what kind of a man
they want for Mayor and we simply
call their attention to very few of
the many qualifications, Mr.. Baum
possesses that, 60 to make up a good
chief officer for the city.

George A. Whitney is a candidate
for reelection to the office of County
Clerk, of Montgomery county. His
Democracy is unquestioned. He
stands by his party, works for it. sup
ports our party organs, and in no
manner contributes to the enemy's
capital. 1t is with pride that he
points TO his record as County Court
Clerk, and upon merit alone he asks
his party to name him as the candi-
date to lead them to victory.

On Wednesday night last, the
Council met and decided that the fol-
lowing offices should he filled by vote
of the people: Mayor, Chief OF
Police, City Attorney and City Judge.
The new charter gives to the Council
or the people the right to elect all the
officers. 1t was the evident
wish of the citizens to take the elec-
ton of the above named officials out
of the hands of the Council. Hence
the action on the part of the Council.
y The salary fixed for each of these
Offices is; Mayor 500 per year, City
Judge 5000 per year, City Attorney
5000 per year, Chief of Police 5000 per
year and fees. Under our new char
ter, the Mayor will have very much
more power than under the old order
Of things. The new charter, among
other things. gives him the veto
power. Let us see to it that a good
man and one identified with the inter-
ests of the city, is selected.

Edward Gallagher, of the Camargo
precinct, is a candidate for Assessor OF
Montgomery county, subject to the
action of the Democratic party. Mr.
Gallagher is deserving young Dem
ocrat, and the party should consider
we'll his claims. He is man of good
judgment, honest and energetic. We
need competent man, one who car
and will discharge the duties required
by this Office. Popularity alone is 9
failure. The young Democracy should
be recognized. They are to be oul
leaders and should be encouraged.

Outing for September opens with a
fascinating complete story-"Donald
Grey the Luck of a Good-for-Noth
ing" by A. B. Ward. The youthful
pranks and escapades of the hero, his
removal to Gotham, his misuse OF
brilliant talents and gradual fall from
honorable employment TO sharp prac-
tices and "playing the races" and the
pathetic picture of weak, doting
mother, sorrowing at home, are all
sketched in a mastery manner. Thou
sauds of bright youths have run the
same fatal course, thousands more will
follow it to be finally ruined by turf
gambling, and many an ambitious
reader of Outing can study the story
for his good. 1t is warning true to
life and free from twaddling sentiment.
Other notable features of an excellent
number are, "Temecula Canon" a
picture of California sport, by T. s,
yandyke; sour Sailor Soldiers" by
e. B. Nero; Football on the Pacific
Slope" by John Craig, and "Wolf
Hunt" by Petty Selmes.
