For District ATTORNEY

Among the Offices to be filled at the
coming election is that of district at
torney. 1t is one of the very import
ant Offices, being closer to the people
than many of the others. On the part
of the republicans of this judicial dis
trict, the 18th, Judge w. II. Pound
has been nominated, and by acclama-
tion, thus indorsing his official con-
duct Of the office. The old saying that
lone good term deserves another, y
seems to hold good in this case. Judge
Pound has given the people, so far AS
we can learn, a clean administration.
He has made a successful prosecutor,
and we have yet to hear of any case in
all his large district. which comprises
the counties Of Adams, Washington,
Yuma, Phillips and Sedgwick, where
he has been even charged with COM
promising with crime or criminals and
favored 10 friends nor feared any enc
mics. Such man is needed, and his
election, which is a foregone conclus-
ion, insures the people continuance
OF the proper punishment of crime
and the administration Of the law.
Another important fact is that it has
not been his habit to file informations
just for the purpose OF dismissing them
to secure the fees Observation-Disclosures

good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain's s
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures
colds and grip ellectually and perma-
ncntly, but prevents these diseases
from resulting in pneumonia. 1t Is
also certain cure for Group. Whoop-
cough is not dangerous when this rem
cdy is given. 1t contains no opium or
other harmful substance and may be
given as confidently to Il baby as to an
adult. 1t is also Pleasant to take.

that people in foreign lands, as well
as at home, esteem this remedy very
highly and very few are willing to
take any other after having once used
it. For sale by G. Lavelle.

CHIEF HAS A NEW HORSE.
Many Thought "OId Bob" a Runaway
and Wanted to Stop Him.

A large crowd of people on Fourth ave-
nue. and Eighteenth streets made wild
efforts yesterday afternoon to stop a SUM-
posed runaway horse and buggy In
which two people were seated. The horse
to all appearances. was running AWAY
and was heading straight for a ditch
which was dug half way across Fourth
evenue and Eighteenth street, and the ef
forts of the crowd were to brighten him
into swervlng and going on the other
side, as well as to stop the animal
When the horse was only a few feet
from the anxious assemblage the crowd
spread in all directions, fleeing like chaff
before the wind. They took to the pave
ment on either side, expecting to see the
horse dash into the ditch and get killed.
and probably kill or injure the occupants
of the buggy
Just when the horse was within a few
feet of the ditch a skilfull hand guided
him safely around the end of it, and he
passed over on solid ground, and all
were safe. Just as the horse was turned
the gong IN front of Chief Mullins fire
wagon sounded, and the crowd looked
sheepishly after him. The chile. has
changed horses. He is now driving "Old
Bob" gray, instead of "Skeeter," the
fast roam which is usually hitched to his
wagon.
"Skeeter" was literally worn out by the
many runs he had to make during the
past week, and he has been sent to the
farm TO recuperate. In the meantime
'Old Bob is doing the work.
