More candidates for the positions which

now filled by Mr.. Thomas j. Sheftall. A
bill is now before the legislature to shorten
the terms Of the clerk and sheriff of the

elected for two years, as formerly, with
the other city officers. Justice Waring

LESS THAN ELEVEN HUNDRED ON
THE ROLL so FAR.

More Candidates for City Offices
DeVeIOping-Nr. II. Newell West IA
Candidate for sheriff of the City
Court.
The average voter is evidently not TAX
ing much interest in preparing himself
for the coming city election. Although
there Is but little more than two weeks
left in which to pay poll taxes and thus
get in the way of qualifying for the city
election, yet up to date less than l, 100 vot-
ers have attended to this necessary form
ality.
Before a citizen can become a registered
voter for the city election he must have
paid all his state, county and city taxes
due up to the time of registration, and this
includes state and county taxes for the
present year. and, Of course. includes the
poll tax. To the great majority of voters
this means only the payment of poll tax
as only minority of the possible voters
own real estate and other property.
From the lax interest of the voters in
preparing themselves to register, one
would suppose that there was only very
quiet city election in prospect. Wise
prophets with many years experience in
politics, however predict otherwise. Ii is
only the cain which precedes the storm,
they say. Supposlng them to be right
and should a live municipal campaign sud
denly burst upon the political horizon, the
tax collectors Office is likely to see a repe-
tition of the scenes of four years ago when
men stood in long lines at the court house
and fought and scrambled over each
others heads in order to get 70 the tax
collectors office. In fact, the excitement
was 50 intense that ha,f the police force
was required constantly to maintain order
at the court house.
II is not likely that there VIII be repe-
tition Of such scenes this year, at least
not on sucf-a scale as in 1894. but IL any
great number Of citizens desire TO qualify
themselves 20 vote IN the CITY eieclson they
are likely 20 find some difficulty Ia doing
SO unless they make haste about IL.
II should be borne In mind that the city
election bill now before the legislature,
and which will probably become a law,
does away with the city registration and
makes the county reg. straton the sole
arbiter of a mans right to vote. The
law is an improvement in that It does
away with the extra registration for the
city election and the consequent expense
to the city which WIS a considerable
item. 1t also does away with the twenty
election precincts and conso dates the
whole election at the court house, with
two voting places for each militia district

General Lee says, in reference to
Cuba. that "the most difficult prob
lem to solve is the first organization
of a preliminary form of govern
ment, as, later, the island will be
rapidly Americanized, and all such
questions will take care of them
selyes.' This is the correct view
of the situation. There will be a
rush of Americans INTO Cuba after
the new political regime is set up.
This will take place even if the new
regime is at first seperate repub-
lie, though, of course, it would be
much greater if annexation should
take place Immediately. Annexa-
tion is a certainty, however, either
Immediately or ultimately, by the
free choice of the Cuban people.
There IS a strong probability that a
dozen years hence the Americans,
Englishmen and Germans in the
island will be very nearly half of
the male population of the voting
age, and more than half of those
who would take the trouble to vote.
These would, to man, favor an
nexation. But it is safe to predict
that annexation will be a fact long
before that time. -Globe-D

There is a great condemnation of
the mob law from almost every sec
tion of our state, but Iust as justice
is defeated by techaities in the law,
chnages of venue, etc. will criminals
be mobbed. flour legislature would
amend the law, granting our judges
the power after a fair, impartial
trial given to the prisoner and when
it is proven conclusiyely and beyond
adoubt he is guilty, to call up around
him the Jury who found him so, and
pronounce the death sentence then
and there, order him hung lmmedi-
ately, it would do more to put stop
to the mob law than anything else.

Catarrh Can Be Cured

By eradicating from the blood the
sorofulous taints which cause it.
Hoods Sarsaparilla cures catarrh
promptly and permanently, because
it strikes at the root of the trouble.
The rich, pure blood which it
makes, circulating through the deli
cate passages of the mucuous mem
brane, soothes and rebuilds the
tissues, giving them tendency to
health instead of disease, and ulti-
mately curing the affection.
At the same time Hoods Sarsapa
r,lla strengthens, invigorates and
ecergizes the whole system and
makes the debilitated victim of
catarrh feel that new life has been
impaired.
Do not daily with snuffs, inhalants
or other local applications, but take
Hoods Sarsaparilla and cure catarrh
absolutely and surely by removing
he eau ses which produce it.

Rich Hill Review.
Geo. Cook, the blacksmith, had a
valuable cow fatally injured Satur-
day night under mysterious circum-
stances. The animal was al right
Saturday evening at milking time,
but on going 10 his feed lot yester-
day morning, Mr.. Cook found his
COW suffering from several deep
gashes on her body. There was
bad cut across one Of the hams, two
deep stabs in the bowels and the
udder was laid wide open. How the
animal sustained her injuries is not
known, of course, and probably
never will lie, but indications GER
tainly point very strongly to yandal
ism. Mr.. Cook said to a reporter:
Il thought at first the COW was as
saulted by my male hog, which was
in the lot with her, but no blood
could be found about him after a
close examination: and that theory
can hardly be believed. The cuts
appeared TO me, and TO my neigh
bors viewing them, to have been
made with two edged dirk knife
The lot was covered with blood and
it could be plainly seen that the COW
had been running and making an at.
