Our reporter noticed that a carload of vehicles had been shipped in here and were being peddled out to the ranchers. We inquired of our dealers if this could be done as cheapiy as they could sel! the same class of ve- hicles and were assured that 1t could not and if any rancher would stop to figure a little he would see that he is paying from 25 to 90 per cent more for these vehicles than he would have tu pay to the local dealer for the same vehicle. These people pay S1O0 for ii censes for each peddler; then they have the expense of team hire, feed bills, help, hotel bills and rent. and these items, without counting salaries. are about $35 per day. and this the pur- chaser always pays Then he is buy ing from strangers and those who have no interest In the valley instead of deal ing with those who are trying to up build the community. These people sell on long time and of necessity their losses from bad debts are great, and these losses are paid by those who settle their notes or buy for cash It's all figured in the price. We are as sured by our dealers that such wagons as these parties sell LOT S175 they will furnish at s125. and buggies for $1OO that they sell for $40.
 Everything q local dealer sells is guaranteed and anything that goes wrong he at once makes good. Those from a distance make a similar guar antee. but the purchaser must return the defective part and q new one will be sent. This takes time and the use of the vehicle is lost while the parts are in transit

County Judge George P Taylor is q candidate for re election, and his announcement may be seen in the proper column. Judgo Taylor enjoys the distinction of being one of the most efficient officials the county has ever had. He has been in feeble health for six months past and will probably be unable to prosecute vigorous campaign, but wishes all hls friends to under. stand that he is just ss anxious for their support and will apprec ate heir votes just IS much aS If a house 10 house canvass had been made. It IS unnecessary for us to recount here what has been accom-. pHshed under Taylor's administra- tion. We have written items from time 10 time during this gentle mans term of office referring 10 the healthy condition of county affairs, and now when We come to present his candidacy for re cleo. tiOn there IS little left 10 be said Tte courthouse, which so many voters howled about al the time it was erected, and claimed that the county had incurred debt which wonld work untold hardships upon the people for three or four gener ations 10 come, has been paid for without an extra levy of taxes, and the people as whole have never been more prosperous. At the tune of Judge Taylor's election three years ago tho county's out. standing indebtedness amounted to s20 900, and now only amounts 10 So,00O, and county scrip is worth 96 cents on the dollar. These few facts in themselves give Taylor a strong record, to say nothing of the improvement to roads and bridges, which latter work he has prosecuted with interest and with a large degree of success. TIE TIMES lea7es his campaign in ike hands of his friends and the de- mocracy, and bespeaks for hlm a favorable consideration on election cay.

One of the hardest worked of hcinls in the county and at the same time one of the poorest paid is the county surveyor. R. l.. Stockard, the gentleman who sn- nounces himself this week as 8 candi date for sheriff. has performed the arduous duties of surveyor for the past two years with credit and is spoken of as the best surveyor the county has ever had. Dick 8 aspirations for the more lucrative position of high sheriff are lauda- blc. He comes before the people not as representative or mem. ber of any political clique or com. bination but as old line democrat who has always stood by his party principles and as one who IS wide. y known over the county for hls loyalty 10 friends and high ap- preciation of duty and honor in his official capacity. Mr. Stock, ard is an expert mathematician which is a strong recommendation on in his favor as keeper of the tax books. In short Stockard is in the race for fair and square con. sideratlon from the voters. Ro is son of Mir. J. +. Stoekard, oi Goodwin township, one of the best known planters in the county, and if elected will give his undivided attention to the faithful perform. ance of duty and the interest of his constituents.
