Mr.. Edwin N. Fisher, the popu-

afternoon for Cleveland, Bradford
and New York on an extended trip
of some weeks. He goes to pur-
chase new goods for his large

that 1t was his intention not only
to bring back as good line OF
goods as always follow him upon
bis return from the east, but a
much better and larger stock than
ever came to this city. His faith
In the coming summer leads him to
the conclusion that even his already
large and complete, and elegant
stock ls not sufficient for the shop
pers of Slstersville.
Believing that the conditions
will Justify It, Mr.. Fisher will add

The many fr lends OF Mr.. w. H.
Merville were pleased to learn Sat
urday that he had consented tc
allow the use of his name for the
nomination at the republican con-
vention for the position of Assessor
for the ensuing municipal year.
This Is one of the important posi-
tions In the city government. 1t
has to do with the pocket book OF
every citizen and property holder.
He says'what portion of the city
taxes each and every one shall pay.
He quotes the value of your prop
erty for taxable purposes, and the
taxes are rated accordingly. So,
when 1t comes to the selection Of
an Assessor, 1t Is something that
comes right home to each individu
al and. should be done with the
greatest care. The assessment
should be equab'e all over the city,
every one sharing and faring alike.
Mr.. Merville has been resident
of this city for several years. He Is
a man of considerable years and
behind him a long life of varied ex-
perIence as would be valuable to
him In the Office he seeks. With
that excellent judgment which
years of training has perfected, he
would be able to place correct es-
innate upon the property of the
city that would be just to all
concerned, bring sufficient
amount of revenue, and discrimt-
nate against no one. The position
of assessor Is hard one Manv
difficulties are put in his way It's
difficult often to get at the real value

At half past six o'clock Sunday
morning Mr.. John W. Lazear died
at his home near Next postof6ce
He had been confined to his home
for many months with rheumatism
and bronchitis, which finally caused
his death. He was born In Greene
county, Pa, In the year 1887 and
moved to this county with his par
ents when only two years old where
he has since resided. He was,
therefore, one of the pioneer citi'
zens of Tyler county and no more
honorable one resided In 1t. He
was a man Of more than ordinary
intelligence, prosperous farmer,
leader In the church, In education,
and everything that goes to
make the world better. He
was at one time large sheep
raiser and took an active part In the
meetings of the sheep raisers of this
county. He was elected member
of the County Court and served
his term with credit. No man ever
questioned his honesty In any way

have been elected to higher county
ofices had he not been kept from
the active duties of life by the dis.
