We hope u people will con-

themselves and among themselves
from now until election day, and
that they will then cast their bal
lots for the most competent men
for all positions of honor or trust.
BY best we don't mean the whin-
ing hypocritical blatherskites, and
those that want to run every
meeting that they are in from
q Sunday School meeting to a cross
road political meeting, but we mean
good trustworthy men, men, whose
word is their bond, and are not one
thing to-day and another to-mor-
row. 1t is our hope that our coun-
try may be delivered from the
ranting, hypocritical, sanctimon-
ious, blatherskiting, irresponsible
and unreasonable demagogue, and
that we may elect men to Office of
sound horse sense, of reasonable

this is done we can all feel as If we

He possessed qualities Of mind a d

Quiet and undemonstra!.ive in his
nature, he took up the dutie Do of life
