by Mr.. Harry Whita- er at Glenwood.
Steger's account of the story is that
Harris was drunk and started the
trouble. Harris finally drew knife
and started for Steger, who pulled q
gun and fired several shots.
Harris admits he was drunk. He
said several other negroes took g. bot
tie of whiskey he had on his person
and started to run away with it. The
men ran upstairs. Steger stopped,
turned around and fired several shots
at him. One struck a button on his
trousers and glanced Off A second

THE LITTLE SICKNEsSES


A little cold in the head is a
triie, but if neglected and it hangs
on from week to week and gets
into the throat ana lungs 1t is no
longer a .trifie 1t is then no long
er a slight cold but the beginning
of chronic catarrh.
Do not make the mistake or
thinking you have no catarrh be-
cause the head and nose appear to
be clear. If there is cough, tick
ling in the throat, hoarseness or
sense of oppression in the chest
you have throat and bronchial ca
tarrh. If the appetite is poor,
nausea, gagging and disgust for
food, especially in the morning.
you have catarrh of the stomach.
The surest and safest treatment
for every form of catarrh is an in
ternal remedy which acts especial
ly on the blood and mucous men,
branes.
Such a remedy is the new ca
tarrh cure, sold everywhere by
druggists under name Of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets, medicine in
pleasant, convenient tablet form
and containing all the best and
latest specifics for catarrh, wheth-
er located in nose, throat, bron-
chial tubes or stomach.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are
composed of Sanguinara, guaiacol,
Red gum and similar antiseptics,
which destroy the germs of catarrh
in the blood, and no one who suf-
fers from any form of catarrh and
has seen the uselessness of sprays,
doucheS and powders will never go
back to them after once trying so
convenient, pleasant and harmless
a remedy as Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets and one which gives relief in
so short time.
Even in cases where catarrh has
effected the senses of smell and
hearing, these tablets accomplish a
cure because the blood being
cleansed Of catarrhal germs, the
mucous surfaces of the nose and
throat no longer clog up the re-
spiratory passages with catarrhal
secretions.
All druggists sell full sized treat
ments of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
for the nominal price of 80 cents
/. and the regular daily use of them
will effectually cure the trouble
some and dangerous disease.

Judge ]. E. Ong more nearly fills
the ideal in the make up of legis-
lator for the interests of the people
than any man who has aspired for
that office in this county in many
years. An original thinker, well
balanced and convincing public
speaker, logical and argumentative,
a lawyer by training, farmer by
choice and desire to be near to
natures surroundings, he will more
ably represent the interests of the
whole community than almost any
man who could be chosen. Judge
Ong's record in his former places
of residence are such as men might
desire to leave, when passing to
another lite. The writer has been
privileged to examine several testi-
monals which came to Judge Ong
and his family upon leaving former
places of residence and they are
what all men might be proud to
possess and which every honorable
man strives to deserve. Judge Ong
is no blatant and f1amboyant ora>
tor. What he says he says with
the spirit of conviction. He is a
silver man and has been for years.
Possessing the friendship and con-
fidence for many years of that
great commoner, William Jennings
Bryan, he will follow the footsteps
Of the great leader of men, should
he be elected, in pursuance OF his
Legislative duties, which he knows
would be in accordance with the
known views for the good of the
common people. which has been
the life work of the great demos
cratic leader.

George Smith has long gun out
for Commissioner Harris, because
he asserts that it was Mr.. Harris
defeated him for nomination for
representative. Mr.. Smith evident>
ly has not learned that the most
killing thing man can do who
has sustained temporary defeat is to
bolt the party nominee and work
for the election of a man without
his own party. Mr.. Smith is taking
the wrong tact, if he hopes for fur>
ther honors from his own or any
other party inthe future.
The daily sentinel., 1900-10-23

The tide Of favorable sentiment
is turning in this city in favor OF
the candidacy of Commissioner
Harris. The mere fact that those
who would like to get their hands
fairly settled on the business Of the
county are so rampant in their de-
nunciation of Mr.. Harris that, the
better element Of the city's voting
population is now turning toward
his support.

For more than twenty years J..
B. Orman has been an employer OF
labor in this state. H.. has been a
workmen right beside those he en-
ployed. Durine all those years
when in close touch and associa-
ton with the laboring classes of
the state, Mr.. Orman has been & n
orally recognized as warm friend
of the working man. Is it not a
fact that he knows more of the act
ual needs of the masses of the state
than his opponent, Frank c. Goudy.
For the greater part Of the time that
Orman has been working beside
labor, Goudy has been the well>fed
counsel of large corporations or
sitting in his handsomely appointed
office, we'll groomed and giving
legal advice against the laborer, for
the corporation has the money to
pay and such men as Frank Goudy
are not hunting poor clients. We
think the question answers itself.
However, we have no fear that Mr..
Goudy will be elected, still it is
better that the claims Of Mr.. Or
man be set forth so that the work
ing man may know who is his real
friend, than. to permit Mr.. Orman's

L. B. Browns claim that he will

L. b Browns claim that he will
receive the greater portion Of the
railway vote of this city is without
any foundation whatever. II there
is one thing more than another
which the railway man fights most
strenuously against, it is to be
herded for anything, even if that
thing be the election of one of their
number to any public office. The
general intelligence among railway
employees in this western country
is SO far above the average that, it
is an insult to their intelligence to
assert that they will do or say a
particular thing, simply because
that thing may conserve the inter
ests of the high officials of the road
in whose employ they may be.
Mr.. Brown will receive his propor-
ton Of the vote, which his personal
ity and the allegiance to his party
will draw to him, but to assert he
will receive the major portion OF
the railway vote, is asserting some>
thing which his party leaders or
are not assured Of, by any
manner of means.
