Law Enforcement League Statement.

On account of the many exaggerated
rumors in circulation, this statement is
published
During series of meetings held in var
ious parts Of Hartford county we have ad-
hered faithfully to the object of our
League. viz. the development of such "A
public sentiment that will secure the en-
actment and enforcement of righteous
laws. This purpose has animated all of
our meetings. Even believers in High
License have complimented us on our
platform as enunciated in our meetings
and many have contributed to our work
This is notably true IN Bel Air where sew
eral lawyers among Others have given
this assurance.
We again avow that the purpose of
our League is to secure the observance of
our laws. So loyal to this purpose are
we that we do hereby declare that We
will heartily welcome any bona fde
agreement from anyone not to sell in
toxicating drink of any kind in Hartford
county SO long as Local Option is the
law of our county. and as far as we NAV.
will use our best efforts to secure to all
such, mitigation of punishment for past
violations of this law.
Nothing would please us more than to
have all who have been selling intuxicat-
ing drink in Hartford county sign and
abide by such an agreement as will et-
frctually free us from illicit liquor selling.

SOME GOOD ROADS SUGGESTIONS.

This is the season of the year when the
careful farmers are cutting their fence
rows and thus in a measure getting rid
of the annual crop of rubbish that will
accumulate in the corners. We notice
that a number haul the refuse away and
burn it, thus preventing the stoppage of
the cutters along the roadside, which
many times is the initial cause of gully
or washout. Speaking of the road ques-
ton, it has recently been suggested to us
by a prominent resident of the first dis
trict that it would be good idea if the
commissioners would pay only one half
wages for roads worked after the month
of June. At the present time the scraper
throws into the road a lot of earth that
will grind into fine powder causing an
immense amount ofdust. which is exceed
ingly disagreeable to the traveller. The
succeeding rain turns it into a loblolly,
which is even worse than the dust. 1t is
the habit, many times, for the road
member to work aged. infirm or youthful
hands, who cannot possibly make day
in any other manner, and thus the
county is deprived of fair return for
money expended. The road question is
always an interesting one, and these sug-
gestions, thrown out by one who is in a
position to be fully informed, should re-
ceive the consideration of every person
who has the interest OF good roads at
hnnr RI

Counterfeit Gold.

Few persons know that the gold used In color
printing and on picture frames is made from
a composition powder of bronze and spelter
and not from pure gold leaf, but which. how
ever gives the same effect. There is another
article that is very much initiated. and that
is Hostctter's Stomach Bitters. Spurious
dealers often refill the bottles, and thus give
them the same appearance as the original, but
unless they have our private stampunbroken
over the neck they are not the genuine. Re-
fuse all such limitations. The Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters has an unequallcd record of
cures of st omach complaints back of 1t such
as dyspepsia, Indigestion. constipation
bilouspess, nervousness, insomnia and ma
Iaria, fever and ague,
