W. A. L.AsHLEE.

In the proper column of this is
sue of The CHRONICLE will be
found the announcement of w. A.
Lashlee, who is a candidate for
election to the Office of trustee Of
Benton County, subject to the &C
ton of the Democratic party in
the primary election to be held on
Saturday, December 10, 1903. Mr..
Lashlee is well known to the peo-
pie of the county, having served
them before in the capacity of
sheriff, and needs no introduction
from us. He is we'll qualified in
every way to look after the bust
ness of the Office of trustee; when
serving as sheriff he established a
reputation as a fearless and ac-
commodating officer; he is a prac-
tical, self-made man, kind, jovial,
and q clever neighbor. Political
ly, Mr.. Lashlee has always been a
Democrat; he is always ready and
willing to promote the best inter
osts of his party, and of course will
abide by the decision of the coun-
TVS Democracy. His claims are
submitted to the voters of the
county, and we ask that our read
ers give them their careful and
thonghtfnl consideration.

his disturbance will belong to a

at the close of that warm period and
will be followed by great fall in tenn

northern sections and again carrying
the frost line unusually far south.
Rainfall during this disturbance will
largely increase over that of the week

My forecasts for last part of Febru-

perfect successes. The Minneapolis

Fosters forecasts continue to score
successes. The cold wave that he pre-

exactly on time; also the rising tenn
