county is favorable to themselves.
The Herald has taken the pains t.
ascertain if this is fact, and is en-
abled to state that there is not a wore

there is not word of truth in it.
George A. Whitaker declares he ha
not been spoken to by any candidate
or friend of a candidate. much les
given a pledge himself.
The same is true of d. o. Rideout.
e. W. Wilson authorizes the expires

statement of the kind is untrue
Mrs. La Barthe is unoledged: say
she has no candidate get, and will no
