Dimond the Candidate.
TOR OF The TINES:

EDITOR OF THE TINES:
Generally speaking, prophet or a candi-
date for office is without honor in his own
bailwick, provided his opponents tell the
story. Now since the other candidate for
commissioner has had his good qualities
land he has many brought to the notice
of the people, we desire, with your permits
sion, to say word for our candidate up
here in Laingsburg. Can any good thing
come out of Laingsburg? Let us see.
Mr.. Dimond has been very patient under
all the Misrepresentation and the attacks
that have been showered upon him, choos-
ing to let his friends and his past good rec
ord speak for him. During residence of
three years in our village he has proven
himself an exemplary citizen, foremost in
all good enterprises, and where he is best
known he is best liked. Like his opponent
for commissioner, he is self-made man,
his father having died in the service of his
country when Edwin was child. He was
compelled to work his way almost unaidea
up to the position he now occupies. He is
just in the prime of life, being thirty-two
years of age, with robust health, industrious
and energetic disposition. He is busy
man, never allowing an hour to go to waste.
There is no doubt about his qualifications as
a teacher and scholar, as those who know
him best have testified. Our village school
was advanced to higher plane than it ever
before occupied under his two years of sue
cessful management. His scholars admire
and respect him and remain his warmest
friends. He is public spirited man, ready
to assist in every good work; an earnest,
everyday Christian, the most successful
Sabbath school superintendent in the village.
He has always been a republican, ever
true to the party and its principles. In
politics, as in any other branch Of his bust
ness, he is q hustler. The fact that he
out-generaed some Of his competitors &C.
counts for the bitter opposition from some
of them. His candidacy will be supported
here regardless of party. 1t is cOnfidentl y |
predicted here that he will carry this town. |
ship on April list by 100 majority. His |
lection will be no mistake. VOTER.

of a general change of views among
those interested in road legislation and
construction throughout the United

majority Of the states of the Unior
have recently adopted new systems Of
road legislation. Many OF them arr
actively engaged in road construction
under new methods. A comparison o.
methods and results will prove OF thu
utmost value to the people"
