lar Neil j. Fortney who occupies
the position. AS we noted last
week, a special term of Circuit
Court was held and steps taken in
the matter, and Mr.. Wotring noti-
lied that the matter would come up
Monday for settlement. Saturday
evening Mr.. Wotring arrived home
from Washington, where he has
been for several months receiving
medical treatment for nervous dys-
pepsia and also applying for a Gov
ment position. Monday Judge
holt returned from Grafton and
csIled Court at ten o'clock. MIR.
Wotring appeared and answered
the charges of the County Court in
person. He acknowledged the neg
Iect of duty, but claimed he had
been unable to attend to the busl =
ness of che Office and had been
away for medical treatment. lie
further said that if the Court would
withdraw their charges, he would
resign the Office. This they did,
and Mr.. Wotring resigned. There.
upon the Judge, after examining
the law and carefully considering
the matter, appointed Hon. N. j q.
Fortney to the Office till the next
general election in Novem Der, 1898.
Hon. James A. Brown was an ap-
pIicant for the place and had strong
recommend ltions, but as Mr.. Fort
ney had been acting since Mr..
Workings illness and is familiar
with the duties from long service in
the office, the Judge gave it to him.

Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure
constipation, dyspepsia and biliousness
IN the only sure, permanent way
There is nothing violent or irritatin o
about them: they work mildly though
quickly. They tone and strengthen
the bowels to carry On their fun stions
naturally. They gently stimulate the
foH of bile from the liver and the di-
gestive juices of the stomach. You
don't become a slave to their use as
with other pills. They make you reg
ular and then you can leave them.
That is the difference between Dr.
Pie rce's Pleasant Pellets and the some
thing Just as good which a sharp
druggist tries to substitute. Don't let
him do SO with you.
