In Albany county great care must be
exercised in the selection OF our legis-
lative delegation and the board OF
commissioners. The present board of
commissioners las conducted the af-
fairs of the county with such judg-
ment and economy that 1t would be a
shame to have a poor board follow them
and undo much of une good work al
ready performed. When the republic
can board took hold of the county af-
fairs four years ago they Inherited an
oveIdraft at the bank Of about $4,000.
Notwithstanding the fact that the tax
levy has been kept very low and the
valuation has decreased to some. ex-
tent, it has been found possible to wipe
out almost completely this large over
draft. Another year OF economy will
complete the work. Our legislators
will also have important work to per-
form. The old agricultural college
ghost still stalks abroad and will not
down. Albany's delegation must
therefore be composed Of the very best
legislative material we have in the
county.

When you hear a Johnsonite OIL a

try, and all their talk about the future
contraction contemplated by those

No Settlement in Sight at Pana

Pana. H., July 2l.-An attempt to
operate the local mines with non-un-
ion miners this morning came nea re-
sulting in a tragedy. The union min

started for the Springside mine. but
We're met by union men who asked for
an interview.
The strikers were answered by one
of the men drawing a revolver and fir
ing into the crowd. The miner who
was aimed at lodged the bullet, but his
face was burned by powder. lie then
attacked the two men unarmed. and
Charlese Spires. one of the non-union
men, was severely beaten.

The coal mines everywhere in the
state are working steadily, and the
miners are earning good wages. Mr..
John H. Cox Of Hanna recently in
formed the Republican that the men
have moi had such steady work at this
season OF the year In six years as they
are enjoying this summer. The same
report came from every other coal min
ing camp in the state. Under a demo-
cratic administration and free trade
there was stagnation and business par
~alyzation with the idle men by the mil
lions. Under a republican administra-
ton there is business prosperity and
employment for everybody at good
wages Notwithstanding thai the coun-
try is involved in war. You don't hear
any more sneers about prosperity.

invalid for some years now and has
not been able TO attend the national
conventions she will make a supreme
effort and viii be taken To Washington
