and the aspirant for county commits
sionership who did not secure yester-
aav enough votes to land him in next
Wednesdays election will have to con.
sign himself to the "also ran" class
when the ballots are counted.

The campaign has been wRged with
spirit, aud it seems to be anybody's
race thus far. There are nine aspirants
for the office of county commissioner,
with only five seats on the board, so
that fo1r of these may m ISIS the plum

The election next "Wednesday will
bring out heavy vote,
More than 1000 voters are register
ed, and these will vote for G overnor,
state house officers and county officers
at the same time. All the candidates
except those for county commissioner

POiSsRnin~ Trees.

A. gardener discovered the fact that
trees are often sent to an untimely
death by poison, usually arsenic. The
reason for this does not appear until
one hears the mans explanation. Sup
pose a man has rented a house which
has too much shade, the law will not
allow him to have one or more of the
trees cut down without the consent Of
the owner AS it often happens that
tenants and landlords hold different
views on the subject of shade, the
trees remain as a bone of contention.
1t is then that the gardener is called
to administer a dose of poison, for
when a tree is dead the tenant may
have it removed. Five cents worth Of
arsenic is sufficient to kill large tree.
A hole is made in the trunk, arsenic
dropped in, and nature does the rest.
1t never fails.-New York Herald
