rs IT RIGHT
For an Editsr to Recommend Patent
Medicines!

From Sylvan Valley News. Brevard. n. C.
1t may be question whether the edi-
to-sof newspaper has the right to pub
Iicly recommend any of the various pro-
prietary medicines which flood the mar
ket, yet as preventive of suffering we
feel IL duty to say good word for
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Dir
arrhoea Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family for
twenty years and have always found it
reliable. In many cases dose of this
remedy would save hours of suffering
while a physician Is awaited. We dc
not believe in depending implicitly ON
any medicine for cure, but we do be-
lieve that IL bottle Of Chamberlain
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand
and administered at the inception of an
attack much suffering might be avoided
and in very many cases the presence of
a physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sale by
VIM. T. Greenwich & Son, Leonardtown.

NEW RRITAIN JUDO ESHII'.
An Unusual Contest Decided by eau
Gus of Republicans.

New Britain, Conn, Feb. 22.-The
contest for the judgeship of the city
and police court, which is destined to
be a memorable one in local history,
was concluded tonight in a caucus of
republican voters held at the casino.
This rather unusual course in deciding
judgeship was resorted to at tne re-
quest of the Hartford county caucus of
the legislature as the contest had been
so well fought by Lyman S. Burr and
the present incumbent, George W. An
drew that the legislators hesitated to
decide. Mayor Webster presided at the
caucus and over 700 republican voters
were present Fully half as many more
democrats were in the galleries. The
first ballot resulted in Mr.. Burr receiv-
ing 42S votes and Judge Andrews 208.
The ballot was then made formal and
unanimous. Judge Andrews has held
the office for four years and opposition
to him developed from his decision in
the Norton libel case when Norton es-
capped with fine of $S for his alleged
slanderOus utterances Mr.. Burr Is a
we'll known attorney and has
