is the height of folly to suffer when
n cure is easy, sure and speedy by
using DR.. Dreene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. Use the great
and wonderful remedy and the ner-
vous, irritable, weak and trembling
feelings will disappear your sleep
will be natural, calm, restful, and
YOU will wake mornings feeling
strong and vigorous instead of tired
and exhausted; all gloomy depres-
sion and sense of anxiety will fade
from the mind your nerves will be.
come srong and steady as steel
your strength, energy and ambition
will be restored, and perfect health
take the place Of weakness and de-
/ blhy.
This remarkable discovery, DR.
Greone's Nervura blood and nerv,
remedy, should not be classed witt
ordinary patent medicines. 1t is the
prescription of the most successful
specialist in nervous and chronic dis
eases, DR.. Greene, of 80 West 14tl
ST., New York City, and he can b,
consulted by all without charge

Fourth. The Democratic apostle
has no more authority to state that
we are for Doctor Wagenseller for
State Senator, than he has to state
that we are for Hummel or Toole.
The columns of the PosT were
thrown open to all alike al the sam"
rates and what is more, the Posi- is
for either of the three candidates
the republicans nominate. They
are all three good men and we Ia
mcnt the fact that such degree of
animosity has been engendored
among the most intimate of friends.
FiHh. The apostle who was ban
ished from democratic confidence
and esteem says that the editor of
the Posr is to be made county chair
man. We assure this chief of

didate for this position and will not
be. 1t is useless to state any reasons

ocratic temple has started n rumol
and we understand intends to use il
in his sheet this week to the effect
that this paper charged one of the
candidates more than another TO
the publication of political matter
The rate charged by us was 10 cent
Il line and this is the rate charged
alike for all candidates in the PosT
Herald and Com ier and we thin
it is the same in the Tribune w
have sent n special letter to the per
sons most interested assuring then
that the report was false and asking
as matter of Justice to abide b
the truth. If it is used, it is use
with the full knowledge that it j
false and such wholesale lying shoul
be rebuked. Our course has bee
straight and all candidates are treat
,1 impartially. If one candidate OF
.,ls more material than another,
rs is no doing of ours. We woul
rrefor TO have one candidate use a
much space as the other, but tn
course is of their own choosing
hence we are relieved of the re
sponsibility. In conclusion we ex
hort all republicans to consider care
fully the qualifications of all tn
candidates from Congress down t,
Delegate and vote for those yol
consider best. Don't allow any ont
to stir up n factional quarrel in oul
party, but march boldly to The

Lesher WiIliully Misrepresenis.

1t is not our sphere nor our inten
ton to use editorial columns in this
primary campaign, but we have beer
viciously misrepresented in last
weeks Times and we desire simply
to explain that Lesher lies. He de
sires to make it appear that the Edi-
tor Of this paper is m applicant for
the Middleburgh Post Office. Lesher
deserves no reply to such misrep-
resentation. We will say to the Re
publican voters OF Snyder county
and more especially to tho patrons
of the Post Office in this place that
we are not an applicant for the
Postmastership mt this place and 'ce
sH not BE- an 0pplicdm under the
incoming administration. 1t does
not belong to us. Middleburgh has
plenty Of goodrcpublican war horses
that have lived in this town for
many years and have been faithful
to the republican party and one OF
these gentlemen will be our next
postmaster. 1t is not for US to say
who he yill be, but his name will
not be Wagenseller. This nails one
lie completely.
The second is like unto this. a
few days ago a special was publish.
ed in the Phila. Inquirer dated at
Middleburgh The Democratic odi.
tor is very magnanimous in crsdlsing
the authorship to us. The special
was not written 10y - and was not
written in this town, as we have
since learned
The third is as Infamous misrep-
resentation as the other two. ""
