ONLY two weeks remain until the
battle of the ballots will take place.
The Republicans of Somerset county
should give a good account of them
selves at the polls on November I'd. Let
every member of the party do his ut
most from now until the contest is over
to get out the full vote. There should
be not less than 5000 Republican votes
polled in the county, which would
mean majority of at least $500. This
can readily be done if Republicans will
go actively to work. Work for our
county candidates, Shoemaker and
Coleman. They are deserving of the
support of all the voters of the county.
Vote for Beacon and McCauley, the
State candidates. They are capable,
honest and intelligent, and will serve
the people faithfully.

Antiseptic Surgery.

The medical value of cleanliness has
not been fully appreciated until within
the past few years. Indeed it is even yet
scarcely allowed its full importance
There are yet i'll the medical profession
men who seem TO forget that cleanliness
is often of quite as much importance as
surgical skill One of this sort of men,

teeth extracted Such an act as this
should bar any man from practice. l.

ANITEM OF INTEREST
An Item of Interest from Dubois Hay
Explain Why the Reader Knows
Considerable and Does Not
Know Everything.

What We acquire easily, we general.
part with readily; what costs us a phys
ical or mental effort we, as rule hang
onto tenaciously. No one is a better
authority on this question than our pub
lie school teachers. Many a time il must
have puzzled them what to do with a
great many of their pupils, how to get
knowledge into their heads is the diff
fculty, but once in, If they examine the
thick-skulled receptacles of their pupils.
they will find solid and substantial rea-
SONS why the knowledge cannot get out.
IL is the same with Doan's Kidney Pills;
how 10 account for the work they do is

reasons for his estimate of their merit.
Mr. &. l.. Luther, cor Luthersburg Road

me a victim of neuralgia and kidney
trouble. producing constant itching and
weakness across the loins, and a severe
burning sensation in the stomach, the
latter being sore 10 the touch and very
much bloated. The neuralgia settled
chiefly in the left side of the head, and

suffering was intense. The complaint

JUSTICE Stephen ]. Fields, Of the Su-
preme Court of the United States, has
retired from service on the bench,
where he served with distinction for
over thirty-five years, having been ap-
pointed by the immortal Lincoln, when
the country was plunged in war and
strife, caused by the secession of the
Southern states. The records of the
Supreme Court show that the retiring
justice has written $40 opinions, and if
to these are added 81 opinions in the
Circuit Court, and 365 that were pre-
pared when he was on the Supreme
Court bench of California, it will be
zen that he has voiced the decision in
l,042 cases. No more fitting tribute of
respect could be paid tn is much honor
ed jurist than TO thus bring before the
people the amount of work that he ac-
complished while on the bench.

THE importance of single vote is
illustrated in the struggle for the con-
troll of the city councils of Atlanta.
The councilman who was elected had
one majority, and his election gave his
faction the control. His one majority
was secured through the vote of a rail-
road friend who was out OF the city,
but chartered a train and arrived at the
polling place few minutes before the
polls closed, yet in plenty of time to
cast his vote. Let every Republican
vote this year. Let every vote count.

THERE is joy in the free silver camps
over the fact that the Democrats have
carried the local elections in Indianap-

both cities had purely local fights, and

verite can gather any consolation.
