To the Democracy OF Lawrnce
Co: Ny dear fellow Democrats,
we shall soon be called upon to put
into the political fed a ticket to

electing such.ticket, wholly depends
upon the availability of the ma.
terial selected to make up such
ticket and the proper harmony in
political action. One reflection
suflices 10 convince us thOt the all
important officer of this ticket is a
county Judge. Never before in the
history Of the county did II stand
so much in want Of judge who
will truly consider the true inter
es;s of HE constituents and act
with the people, for the people and
by the people. The interests Of tbs
county demand that the judge ex-
Ell; due diligence in promoting the

cL,te the matchless advantage Of
such pixies, We have but to consld-
er the very great advantages of our
sister county, Boyd.
Now my fellow Democrats, we
have recently seen the county lost
to the Democracy by at least
a iull 100 votes, and / reitefate that
unless due diligence is exercised
we shall again lose the judgeshiT
of the county.
We have at least one man whose

This man is educated ,urbane ,sobel

DYING BY INCHES.

The Early Dissolution of the State Base
Ball League Predicted.
Tho state base ball league will soon be a
thing of the past. The New Haven Courier
says:
The affairs of the New Haven base
ball club of the Connecticut state league
are Of present in chaotic state. The
club, it is claimed, has not been paying
expenses and the management have de-
cided to materially cut all salaries. The
day and the players of the local team were
asked to play for 50 each per game, in
stead of $50 per month, the salary which
they had been receiving. This PROPOSE
ton was not received with any amount of
approval by the players and the conse-
quence Is that the team is at present minus
the services of some of its best players.
Third Baseman Doherty and Second Lyons
rendered their resignatihns to the manage
ment last night and it is said that more
will follow suit to-day"
And then comes this cry of distress from
Willimantic:
UNLESS a radical change is made in the
management of the base ball team without
delay another week will witness its obse-
>4uies. Inquiry as to the cause of the
present condition ELECTS the charge OF mis-
management which, like many another
failure. has resulted from the indifference
of those who have put their money into it.
The management to-day finds itself with
no money in the treasury. an entire lack
of confidence on the part of the public, an
the players, in want Of ell their pay, dis

Health Officer O'Hara Sent on Wild
Goose Chase.
Town Health Officer O'Hara was sent on
wild goose chase up to Wateryille last
night Some one telephoned to Health
Officer Robbins stating that there were
two suspected cases of smallpox in Water
Vile. DIR Robbins sent word to DR.
O'Hara. The latter had another case on
hand and did not reach there until about 2
o'clock this morning. After half an hours
search he finally located the house away
out in the woods, but did not make an in
vestigation until this morning, when he re-
turned to the scene. When he enterep
the house he was accosted by woman
about 20 years old who when she learned
the nature of the doctors visit demanded
the name of his informant and said who
ever told HIM such a story was drunken
blackguard. This made the health officer
SMILE for the messenger who carried the
story is one of the greatest temperance
cranks in town. The hou Sc was thoroughly
searched and the officer satisfied himself
that it was q false alarm When the man
who sent down the message was asked
about it he said that the door had been
closed for the last couple of days and the
neighbors suspected that something was
wrong. "Why didn't you say it was a case
of yellow fever, cholera or something else
instead of smallpox" asked the doctor.
The man did not know what the trouble
was and evidently thought that what he
said would bring the authorities around as
quickly rs anything he could mention.
And it did.

The Telephone Company viii Prosect

The Telephone Company Will Prosecute
Persons Found Dcfacng Their Properly.
Complaints are being made by the Sc
lectmen of several towns in the state
about the appearance of the poles of the
Southern New England Telephone Co.
In many places they are covered with
handbills. and patent medicine advertise
ments, and are a Disagreement to the
towns. An act was passed by the legisla-
lature making the posting Cf bills on poles
amenable to the law. This has not had
due effect, however, as day by day the
poles are discovered with more handbills.
An effort is being made by General Super
intendent Baker to locate the culprits, and
if possible to make his company keep with
in compliance of the law. A strict watch
on all poles is being kept. The penalty
for affixing handbills to telegraph poles is
500 and six months imprisonment.
