is IT RIGHT
For AN EDITOR TO RECOMMEND PAT.
ENT MEDICINES

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N. C.
It may be question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as preventive of suffer
Ing we feel it duty to say good
word for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine. in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while a physician is await
ed. We do not belieye in depending
implicitly on any medicine for cure,
but we do believe that if a bottle OF
Chamberlaln's 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 during the past
twenty years. For sale by E. T.

A Communication.

EplToG TELEoEAM,-l promised to
give your readers close figure on the
results in ward > for mayor and alder
man. MIR. Swascy will have about 20
majority in this ward and Kingston will
defeat .. j. lloweS with a lesser major
ity Swasey's popularity over Gordon
is caused by his homer, the mayor, stop
ping the anarchist meeting of Emma
Goldman The followers of Emma
Goldman have a Society--so the woman
next door told me. Their platform is ::
No king. no Queen, no president, no
iail, no policemen. o. yes, wine and
beer,
Mr. Gol,lon does not believe in this
platform, neither will he mix in with
the boys and take a social hooker with
them around election time.
The mayor has many strong support
ers here vino ! hear my boarders say
can more than hold their own in the
hooker business. If the above society
is as strong in the other wards as it is
in this one Mr. Swasey will be elected.
There is no English spoken on the
street where 1--we, so cannot learn
much from them. The Swasey men
offer to support Kingston if he would
drop Gordon. This he positively re-
fuses to do. Sink or swim he will be Il
Gordon man. Giles is managing the
Howe campaign. lie is making regu-
lar rounds daily, never neglecing to
bring along his soldering iron. King
Ston is running his own campaign. He
is busy locating bad roads and side
walks that ueed the attention of the
street commissioner. TELEGRAM, il
