KIND interest in my behalf.
Please accept the thanks OF
Yours very gratefully.
JOHN WALTON.
When the Register states that this
tribute to Mr.. Walton is a deserved
one, it states what is APPARENT to all
who know the genial official named.
No man could be more cOnversant with
the complicated and important details
of tho Office of Circuit Clerk. Mr.. Wal
ton is familiar with every turn and
twist of the law. knows intimately all
the devious and complex ways of liti-
CATION and can lay his hands upon
any document in any case without the
slightest delay. His general legal
knowledge is such that very competent
counsel are often set right in important
matters in which they have erred. re-
garding some suit, technical questions
left to him are frequently settled al
most instantly and always in the right
manner, and his presence in the Office
saves TO the members Of the bar a very
large amount of time, which in the
case OF attorneys particularly repre-
sents money. Mr. Walton's selection
for the Office would be a good thing
for the bar rs we'll as for the general
public, and attorneys fully realize this.
It is intimated quietly that some of
the Republican candidates are not al
together satisfied with the date fixed
for the Republican primaries. but the
kick probably amounts to nothing
and there is not the remotest probable
lty OF any change
The Republican leaders are estimat-
ing that they will poll five thousand
votes ut the primary, arguing that the
large number Of candidates will bring
out The largest vote ever cast at an
Ohio county primary The number is
probably not too high, in view of all
the circumstances.
There will be three Republican can
didates for Justice in the Eighth ward
two 10 be elected. The contestants
are Justices Ankle and Schultze and
Councilman David Hahne.
1t IS argued that the withdrawal of
Mayor Caldwell from the Republican
gallop for Sheriff will benefit Mr.. Rich
aros very considerably 1t is also ru-
mored that an effort is being made to
have Mr.. Bachman withdraw. Things
are beginning to crystalize.
The fight for Commissioner in Clay
district, between Messrs. Dobbins and
Halter will be interesting.
1t isn't likely that Mr.. McGregor will

Saving a mans life is looked upon as the
greatest service that can be rendered him.
If he is in danger, he feels forever grateful
to the friend who saves lin. If he is de-
l1vered from savages, or from wild animals,
or from drowning, or from the teeth of q
shark, he can hardly find words to express
Eis gratitude. Is it surprising then that DR..
Pierce has received thousands and thous-
ands of enthusiastic letters from those who
have been saved from death and lingering
disease by his wonderful Golden Medical
Discovery" Hundreds of these people
write to say that they had suffered for years;
that life had become miserable and that
death would have been welcome. Some of
them say that doctors had given them up to
die, when the use of the Discovery"
brought them back to happy life and health.
This great remedy is meant for any one who
has any disease of the throat, lungs, or bron-
chial tubes. Its Strengthening and purify
ing effect on the lungs is SO great that it will
positively cure ninety-eight per cent. of all
cases of consumption. 1t is a cleansing,
Strengthening, purifying, invigorating tonic.
1t puts new life into the blood and nerves,
into the brain and body. 1t cures every form
of Indigestion, makes the appetite good, the

can pour from two to three hundred
millions Of gold into English Golfers
every year and no protest be made, but
let a paltry twenty-five millions come
this way and up goes the discount and
the stream stops or America must pay
tribute to get it. Such is the villainous
hold England has upon us. The worse
we need thafgold the heavier she makes
the tax, as during the scarcity OF money
which caused the panics OF AZ and 81 in
this country when the Bank of England
raised the rate OF discount to 7 per cent.
And yet Americans forget these times
and throw themselves right into Eng

try on a narrow gold basis which Eng

the name Of patriotism.
