ELLERT THEIR CHOICE.

Partisan Nominees.

career was highly commended by William

Behrend Joost's claims set aside were also
mentioned.

was considered superior TO that of the
other conventions, and the committee is tO

men for Endorsement by the club. Other
recommendations will be made by the club
at the next meeting.

THEN AND NOW.
MUD uEYsER, AUGUST 16. 1894.

1t is indeed gratifying. not alone to the
Democratic party. bnt th, people of Fergus
county generally, that they have in the re-
sponsible office OF sheriff q, maj in whom
the most Implicit coniideI,c- can he reposed
and who discharges his every duty iairly,
eonscienciously and impartially. In the
performance of his official functions Sheriff
Deaton has treated both friend and foe
with absolute impartiality. always dis
playing that leniency characteristic Of the
officer who sympathizes with u ieilow-man
IN trouble, but who will, nevertheless. scru-
p~uiously discharge his own duty. la con
nection with this the fact must not be over
looked that he has conducted the office in
"A most manner, as an examin.
alton OF the records will conclusively dem
onstrate. But, otwithstanding all this,
Mr.. Deaton has enemies (but the Messiah
himself would have enemies in Fergus
county, who seem to take especial delight
In manufacturing and circulating all man

him, knowing at the same time they are
wholly without foundation and are
prompted alone by "A d~eplorable spirit of
vindictiveness. The Lewistown ring, ever
ready to blackmail and degrade any one
who a~ntagonizes their organization, is prof
iting by such indiscreet and ill-advised ac-
tions. and is doing all in it's power to
foment discord. Happily, however. the
conservative element can be relied upon to
give such petty acheming an efiectual quie-
tus. and those who rely upon the distribu- |
ton oil canards in order to crafty personal
spite will find themselves in a hopeless |

Old Age and Hard Work.


Old people make a great mistake
when they give up work. Many men
who have made competency in bust
ness and feel entitled to retire from
active work find themselves declin-
ing in health and becoming prema-
turely old for want of occupation. In
most aged persons the vital functions
continue in active exercise under nor
NAL conditions. But if the REGULAR
ty and moderation of business life
are departed from, trouble will sure
ly follow. On the other hand, The
Lancet holds that IF in any direc-
ton it is allowable for competitors in
the race of life to dispense with self
control it would appear that they
may to a great extent use this lib
erty with respect to physical and
mental exertion." In other words,
we must not eat too much o drink
too much, but we can study hard
and take plenty of exercise not only
without harm, but with the best re-
suits, and if old people wish to live
out all their days they should find
plenty to do, both for mind and body.
