THE democratic convention put out
good men for the election in March
and did it unanimously. 1t is the duty
of every democrat to not only vote the
ticket, bnt to work for it. DR.. George
H. Berry, nominee for myor, is man
Of splendid character, untiring energy
and good business ability. He would
make the town an honest, conscien-
tious, upright official, and one of whom
every voter should be proud. Sanford
Crouch is young man we'll qualified
and fitted for the place he is making
the race for and should have the hearty
support of all citizens-republican as
we'll as democrats. If these men have
the treatment they deserve at the hands
of the party that nominated them they
will surely be elected. This is no time
to sulk, but the financial condition Of
the town is such that it stands the peo
pie in hand to entrust these affairs t.
honest and conservative hands. Vot,
for Berry and Crouch.

The thing that is worrying the ma
iority of the numerous presidential
booms is that the Quay boom positive
ly refuses to see its shadow and go
back like the grounding. This is taken
contrary to what it is in the case of the
hog, and means a lot of rough weather
for some of the booms that were
thought to be out of danger of frost
sometime ago.
