who knows nothing Of breeding and
makes no effort to learn anything Of
its principles.
One consolation we have in con.
templating a short corn crop in the
southwest is that we can substitute
cake for hoecakes and cream bread
for corn dodgers.
The remedy for Indigestion in
fowls is the same as for men-re-
stricted diet of easily digested food.
Starvation in moderate cases is good
medicine for fowls or folks.
"All flesh is grass" saith the Scrip-
lures. When we reflect that much Of
the best flesh is corn, oats and cot
ton seed meal, we conclude that the
text has a figurative meaning.
Some farmers have the mistaken
idea that sheep can get along with
very little water in winter. The fact
is that they require it as regularly as
other stock, and ten head will use
fully as much as 1,200-pound horse.

TROUBLE BEGINS.

Trouble begins with the first back
ache Backache comes in man,
forms. Sudden twinges Of pain, sharI
stitches. slow exhaustive aches.
Most hac6ache pains are kidney
pains
The Kidneys fan to perform tn,
duties nature intends them to dc
and the warning of trouble comes
through the back.
Neglect the kidney warning, grave
complications will surely follow.
Urinary disorders = Diabetes
Bright's Disease-are the downward
steps Of neglected kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure every kid
ney and bladder sickness and the
cure lasts Read this proof of it;
Mrs Adam Guntle, residing at 7O1
South Plum St., Crawfordsville Ind,
says made a public statement in
1897 saying that Doan's Kidney Pills
had cured a member of our family
after he had suffered for years with
weak back and kidney troubles.
He took three boxes Of this remedy
and was completely cured. Now
three years have elapsed since I
made this statement and I am only
too pleased TO reendorse IT. I have
also used Doan's Kidney Pills myself.

he was struck by a man wearing

FROZEN OUT.
Heavy Assessment CompeIs ia.
Ramsey to Quit Race.

James A. Ramsey, who has been men
toned as one of the candidates in the
Sixth ward councilman contest has an
nounced that he would withdraw from
the contest. This leaves the fight be-
tween George Tincher and Jay c. Lee
Mr.. Ramsey was forced out of the
fight by the heavy assessment levied on
the candidates by the city central COM
mittee. He said he could not stand it to
pay out $50, besides the many inciden-
tails necessary, with the chances for Sc
curing the place no better than they
were.
There is strong belief among some
that the candidacy of Peter Roundtree
in the Fifth ward is likely to cut con-
siderable figure in the situation in that
ward. Apparently Samuel T. Howe had
the best Of the fight but it is not inn
probable that Roundtree will finally win
out. His brother, Fred Roundtree, was
elected in very much the same way Pc
ter Roundtree hopes to be. Two white
candidates split the white vote between
them, and the coiored vote, with some
scattering support from the whites, put
Fred Roundtree in the council Fred
Roundtree made a good councilman. and
his brother is an Intelligent young man
and would represent his ward well.

he followed the practice of many county

FIGHT OVER OFFICE.
De EactO Sheriff FOrtifies Him.
self and Refuses to Give Up.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE fight over the
office of sheriff in Hamilton county, in
the heart of the Adirondacks, has de-
veloped into a fight of another kind,
according to a Herald dispatch from
Saratoga At the election last Novem-
Der, Locke, Democrat, was declared
elected by the board of supervisors, but
Kathan, the Republican candidate, car
ried the matter to the courts, charging
frauds and irregularities, and the su-
preme court decided in his favor.
Meanwhile Locke had taken possess
sion of the office, including the court
house and jail, and refused to obey the
order of the court and surrender to his
rival.
Both claimants organized forces to
secure the prize, and Locke has, it is
reported, fortified himself in the county
jail. declaring the decision was wrong
and will be reversed and he does not
propose to give up until the case has
been determined by the court of last
resort.
Meantime the county, which is mac
cessible by railroad, is buried deep in
snow, and there are fears that trouble
may be precipitated before the state au-
thorities can intervene to enforce the
decision of the court.
