A REVIEW OF
The SILVER NOMINEES
The TICKET SHOWS MANY GOOD POINTS WHEN GIVEN
CAREFULLY CONSIDERATION
The Party and Delegates Will Make Winning Fight With
Candidates.

friends that it viii take a lively man
to crawl over. George is a winner.
For Recorder, Henry DIETRICH fills
the bill. His good record as a citi-
zen and the fact that he is engaged
in silver mining, should make for him
friends even outside of his party. His
own party will support him to the
man. ,..s
George Keith, for District Attorney
is deserving of the entire support of
his party. He has stated that he
will not make a strenuous fight
against his opponent, as he is on a
sick bed and does not wish to take
any undue advantage. 1t is manly
way to take the matter, and this in
itself will not hurt Mr. Keith in the
peculiar circumstances that surround
the situation.
In the Commissioners fight, Edmund
James will have to take the brunt of
the fight. He is a citizen of worth,
and one that believes that the county
finances should be handled as those
of an individual. His record as a
City Trustee is enough to convince
the citizens and voters that he is a
good man for the place. The other
Commissioner is out for the good of
the county and will make fight for
economy and good government.
Judge Stone has again been selected
by his party as the Justice. His rec
, ord is above reproach and he has
| filled the duties of the Office in a man
| ner that has brought him friends from
both sides. The Judge has won un-
der trying circumstances and will win
again. He is the right man in the
right place and his party could no:
| have made a better selection.
Everybody knows Nudge Mara. Ee
has been selected for Constable and
is conceded to be strong man by
both parties. Nudge is also party
worker and when the votes are co,ln
! ted will be numbered among tile win
ners.
Take the ticket as a whole ami i,
presents healthy appearance. 1t is
impossible to please everybody il
politics. but when the party men size
up the situation. it is the conclusion
that a good ticket has been placed
in the field, that should receive fnt
majorities that it is entitled to. lie

Yesterday when the candidates that
came before the Silver convention
had chance to look aroud and figure,
they concluded that the ticket was o.
k. AS is always the case when two
factions have to be considered, there
was scrimmage and somebody had
to get hurt. In the case of the Sill
yer convention, a good ticket was
placed in the field when the della
gates came down to business, and
since the boys have had chance
to size up the material that the Re-
publicans have placed in the field,
they are satisfied with the result.
The head of the ticket with A. Liv-
ingston, is all right. A fight was
made against him, but the majority
won and he will receive the support
of every delegate that attended. Liv
has made one fight against odds and
won and this year he says he is in
good fettele and will land the goods
for his party He is a worker and
means what he says, and with his
own party true to him he can carry
the day.
For the Assembly there is the old
war horse, Bob Logan. He is being
the senior of the three nominees, is
first mentioned. They can't beat Bob
and he is the right kind He has ser
we'd before and will make a good re
preventative for this county. Mike
looks good to his friends, and will
poll a vote throughout the county
that will not only surprise the oppo
sitiOn but his friends as we'll. Chas
Wylie is another of the Legislative
candidates, and he is in the working
ranks Wylie was one of the frs
Silver men in this county and ha:
taken as lively part in the doing:
of the party as any man in the ranks
His work has made him friends, a:
will be shown when the votes are
counted.
When it comes to the Sheriff. Bill
Kinney leads the list. His success.
in that particular Office is due to hi:
just action as assessor and good rec
ord as a peace officer. The opposi
ton has taken several tries at liftin.
Bills scalp and have always foun'
him on top, and that is where he will
land this fall.
The County Treasurer will stay il
the hands of George Cowing, and hi
accommodating actions as Count
Clerk have built him hedge G

"a Lot of ,air."

The Inhabitants of the little town
Of Somersby, in England, where Ten
nyson was born, are frank in giving
their opinion Of their distinguished fell
low townsman. One old woman thus
related her impressions of the poet to a
visitor:
"'E was very quoiet man. e SEEM

And this somewhat startling testimo-
ny was promptly confirmed by her hus-
band, who added:

dusty rooad, you'd "a takken i'm for a

Sarcasm That Failed.

A certain Englishman by birth who
is an American by force Of circum-
stances has been in this country long
enough to absorb the American idea
Of humor. Last summer he was in
London on visit and happening to-
have business with man on an up
per floor Of tall building took the
Gift" to reach his Office. The elevator
was one Of those excessively deliber-.
ate British affairs, and its snail-like
progress annoyed the Americanized
Briton. The only other occupant Of
the car was middle aged English
man, with a manner of peculiarly
English seriousness. The man from
America ventured to address him.
II think l could make a great i'm
provement in this lift" he said.
The Englishman looked seriously in
terested.

An Interesting Coin.

An interesting coin has just been sold
in Germany. 1t is one Of the few coins
in the history Of the world which can
be accused of having humorous side
to it. In 1879 the Danes descended on
the port of Hamburg, but their attack
on the famous Hanse town proved un-
successful. The inhabitants of the
town struck medal to commemorate
the occasion. The legend on the coin
was as follows: "'rhe king of Denmark
has been to Hamburg. If thou wouldst
know what he achieved, look on the
other side" 1t is needless to add that
"the other side" is blank.

1t Reminded Him,

One sharp November day. says the
Philadelphia Record, boy entered a
car, leaving the door open, much to the
discomfort of an old gentleman who
sat next. AS the wind chilled his mar
row his temper rose. Leaning across
his seat and taking the kid by his ear,
he said: Were you brought up in a
barn? Why don't you shut the door?"
The boy said nothing, but closed the
door. coming back to his seat inytears.
This sight moved the old man to relent-
ing pity. There, there" he said, "lit-
tie man; didn't really mean you were
brought up in barn.
That's just it," retorted the kid. II
was brought up in barn, and every
time see jackass it makes me think
Of it."

Sponses.

Sponges grow in odd, fantastic
shapes. Some of them have an over
growth resembling huge warts. There
are some suggesting hands, hats and
figures OF idols. These are curiosities
and not marketable for practical use.
In trimming them into shape many
small sponges are made which are
used for children's States, for black
Ing shoes and in making paper. The
uses vary according to size.
One of the largest sponges known
Is In New York city. 1t is fan shape
and some three feet in diameter. For
practical use it is worthless, but as an
exhibit 1t is valued at 500.
The best sponges are imported from
the Mediterranean, although Florida
produces very fine varieties. These
vary in price from cent to 500
apiece, although occasionally fine
specimens bring $50 pound. The
best of these are used in surgical op-
erationa
other speges are the mandruka
bait, the elephant ear, velvet grass
and sleeps wool, which is best for
washing. The cheap sponges are used
In washing carriages and by painters.
