REMEMBER.
Johnson.

Remember that hammering Jones
does that gentleman no harm and
saves the county no money.
Remember that Olson has a reputa-
ton for greed. avarice and rapacity
from which he hopes to draw atten-
ton by attacking Others
Remember that when Olson twitS
Jones of having made possible the
election of Ufford two years ago, that
he does SO for the purpose of dis
rupting the Republican party of this
county. which he realizes is now
united in defense of the public
treasury and fully determined to cor
rect the unfortunate blunder then
made.
Remember that Jones has never
asked anything OF either Olson or IF
ford land does not now and when the
county clerk tells voters that Frakes,
if elected. will reduce the county
physicians bills. he knows it is I'M
true, because impossible. 1t is only
Ufford's way of showing gratitude for
past favorS.
1t is not inappropriate to remember
in this connection that DR. Jones
spends more money and is doing more
to improve farming and stock-raising
in Trego county than any single III
dividual in it, and infinitely more
than a car load of returning Utfords
ever have or ever will do.
Remember that Ufford does his
farming in Washington county.
Bear in nina that DR.. Jones never
saw or heard of this article and that
he has not written or suggested IL line
for this paper during the whole cam
paign.

WHY 2

Mr.. Olson there are some questions
which voters may ask of you and
your candidates. If you are anxious
to save money for the taxpayers why
should they pay you per cent NOR e
than we ask for county printing?
When the contract was given to us in
the regular way why did you expect tie
commissioners to pay YOUR bill which
was larger and also illegal? Are you
sueing the taxpayers of Trego county
to save them money? It's an ill wind
that blows no good. Are you merely
piling up court fees for the benefit of
the sheriff and deputy clerk?

A CONTRIBUTION REFUSED!

Without a desire to NEEDLE into
other peoples business and not pre-
tending to divulge any secret. we re-
mark that Mr.. Frakes has said that
he did not want to make the race for
commissioner, and that he wanted to go
elsewhere, but was told that he would
make a good run and finally consented
out of consideration. for his friends"
1t is not surprising to hear that he is
about ready to leave the county and
it is still less marvellous that he
should be reluctant to become con-
nected with the inevitable Olson
fight Mr.. Frakes also says that he
offered to give 800 to the campaign
fund if his friends would accept that
in lieu of his consent to run. His
offer is not strange or surprising be-
cause he has the money and because a
man of his standing could we'll afford
TO make even a greater donation
rather than besmirch himself with
Olson slime
But it is significant that Mr.. Olson
did not accept the money. He must
consider Mr.. FrakeS worth more than
800 as a candidate or commissioner
and probably compared that sum with
the S351.49 he wants to collect from
the taxpayers of this district who,. we
apprehend, will make the same COM
parison.
Mr. E'rakeS was doubtless sincere
when he said he wanted to go else
where. No one presumes that he will
ST. -
and remain here without any other
business than a $50 job. But if elected
he could, if he chose, help pay Olson
1851. 40, elect Olson county printer
for next year and then resign. Mr..
Ufford and Swiggett could then ap-
point Olson county commissioner.
There is no law to prevent it and it
would doubtless suit Olson. There is
only one remedy; the defeat of Frakes
or Ufford or better-both of them.
There are not a few level headed
men in this community who believe
that the plan given above is the
scheme now on foot, but they ask?
Could Olson hold both the contract
and the office. Certainly, because
there is more than one Olson and
title to the print shop could be traps
ferred just as it was once before to
avoid taxes
But we remind any possible doubter
that There are wheels within wheels"
Men can exchange places for a time.
a sale of The Independent would
meet the difficulty suggested and such
a sale to its English editors, who have
been kept in the back ground but
whose work bears the land office ear
marks, has been negotiated. We
have this on good authority from near
the throne. 1t appears that there is
but one thing lacking. The terms
and conditions of sale are contingent
upon the election of Erakes and con-
troll of county finances. 1t is not pay
ing property now and to take charge
of it present would give the whole
thing away.
Mr.. F'rakes can not deny and will
not attempt to deny the assertions
attributed to him in our first para
graph.

Washington, Feb. 23.-(Special to
Richmond Dispatch THE delegation
from Eastern North Carolina, which ar
rived here last night in the interest of
Mr. w. W. Clark, of Newbern, for the
vacant United States district judgeship
i'm that section of the State, failed to see
the President to-day, but are promised
a hearing tomorrow morning at 10
O'Clock This is regarded as a mere
matter of courtesy, as it is understood
that Mr.. Cleveland viii not make any
appointment, owing to the fact that the
Senate Will refuse to confirm any Demo
crat fts, the place.
Representative Woodland, who was
strongly. recommended and endorsed for
the place, withdrew his application ON
this accent, and abandoned the hope
less contest. Notwithstanding this seem
ingly settled policy of the Senate, there
are others besides Mr. Clark endeayoring
to secure the appointment, who are will
ing to take the chances of confirmation.
Among the aspirants is said to be So
Iicitor Walter Fadson, of the Treasury,
whose friends are sanguine of securing
the appointment for him. Mr.. Faison is
an accomplished lawyer, and would, no
doubt, be the choice of the President, if
there was any possibility of securing
the office for him.
1T is stated tonight, on what is regard
ed as good authority, that there is a
conspiracy in the Senate to defeat the
holding of any further executive ses-
sions. This is said to exist between
some Republicans, silver men, and the
Appropriations Committee. The latter is
very much behind with its work, and will
insist on all the time of the Senate being
devoted to the passage of the appropria-
ton bills, and it may be necessary to
begin work earlier in the morning, and
have might sessions, also, to dispose of
them by the close Of this Congress. If
this programme of the conspirators is
successful then all appointments of Mr..
Cleveland's will fail.
Another statement current tonight re-
garding the North Carolina judgeship is
that the President may send in the name
of Representative Tom Settle, who is a
Republican, and force his confirmation
by the Republicans and administration
Senators. There is a precedent for this,
in the nomination of Judge Jackson, a
Tennessee Democrat, by President Har-
rison, at the close Of his term, and Jack
sons confirmation by the Senate.

SOMETHING TO DEPEND ON.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm Of
Jones & Son, Cowden, H., in speaking
of Dr. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
La Grippe, and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. 1t seemed to
develop into hasty consumption. Hav-
ing Dr. Kings New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took bottle
home, and to the surprise of all she began
to get better from the first dose, and half
a dozen dollar bottles cured her sound and
well. DIR. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds is guar
anteed to do this good work. Try it. Free
