The people of this part of the
county are criticising the actions
of the county commissioners quite
severely on account of the method
persued in the discharge of their
duties during tho past year. OF
course no men or body men would
persue the same course in hand
ling public affairs, and consequent
ly all public officers are more OF
less open to just and unjust criti-
cism. The letting of tho county
printing without any regard to the
taxpayers hapbeen the means Of
bringing before the people several
questions for discussion, and from
what can be learned at this time,
it appears that the commissioners
have laid themselves wide open to
criticisms that are merited.
Our idea as to the interests OF
the county is to place before our
readers, as plainly as is in our
ability, information relative to
questions Of the day, hence we
have devoted so much space Is the
commissioners conduct question,
As it now stands, only very few
people of the county will have an
opportunity Of noting the proceed
ings Of the commissioners during
the coming year, nor will they b

Washington Letter.
(From Our Regular Correspondent

rWAsHJNaToN. Jan. Z, 1898.
Senator Davis, chairman of the
committee on foreign relations,got
right down to business when he
gave notice in the senate that the
treaty for the annexation of Ha-
wali would be called up Monday
and kept before the senate until it
was disposed of. The outlook for
the ratification of the treaty is
much better than it was before the
recess. It is now known that ev-
cry republican senator will vote
for ratification, the populists will
divide on the question, and the
abandonment of the attempt on
the part of some of the democrats
to make it a party question makes
the friends of annexation confident
that enough democrats will vote
for it to make up the necessary
two-thirds.
The house jumped right into the
debate on the civil service and will
talk it out on that line. A bill re-
presenting the views of those re-
publicans who believe that the
present law should be modified
has been introduced. It provides
for tenure of Office of five years
of all officials included in the civil
service rules; that those rules
shall only apply to the govern
ment departments at Washington
and to such other localities where
the number of employees exceed
twenty-five, and only to those
whose compens ton is not below
$500 and not above $500.
In answer to q senate resolution,
the members of the cabinet have
forwarded their opinions of the
civil service law and rules. They
all approve the principle of the
Law, but Secretaries Sherman, Gage
and Wilson advocate material
modification of the present rules
and present good reason why they
do so.
Secretary Gage wears a broad
gauge smile these days, owing to
the continued increase, beyond all
expectations, in the government
receipts under the Dingley tariff
law; and Mr.. Dingley's smile is
even broader.
Chairman Cannon, Of the house
appropriation committee, who
spent his holiday at his 1llinois
home, says his constituents were
all too busy to talk politics and
that consequently he heard moth
ing about this years campaign.
Representative Fletcher, OF
Mimi, who has just returned from
q trip home, said: During the
forty years I have resided in the
state l have never seen the rural
districts of the state more prosper

always been loyal, and have never

heated. Every indication has a
tendency to show that Clough,
backed by the ring, is supporting
Van SAINT on the ticket, but il
seems to be the general opinion
that this support will doom biz
election as the people are pretty
thoroughly prepared to resist any
such maneuver on the part of q
few. The man who. can secure the
nomination without having the

elected. Otherwise. if the oppo.

ability at all, he will surely receive
the vote that is not controlled, and
that vote is large and steadily
growing.

manufacturing is dead in this city, aged
u years When about 20 years of age he
began work on his first machine, which
was for pegging shoes, and it was a pro-

to this all the work in making shoes was
done by hand. The machine was consid-
cred a wonder and finally found its way
into many factories. He next invented a
counter-skiver and later secured numer-
GUS patents on rolling machinery, sole
molders, shank-cutters, heel polishers,

Foremost among the worlds greatest
chemists stands T. A. Slocum, of New York
City. His researches and experiments,
patiently carried on for years have finally
eliminated in results which are proving as

any chemist, ancient or modern. His efforts
which for years had been directed toward
the discovery of positive cure for con-

cured thousands of apparently hopeless
cases, and it seems necessary and humane
duty to bring such facts to the attention of
all invalids.
