Johnston and Hidlay Re-appointed

w, c. Johnston, Esq, is again
solicitor for the Bloomsbury Poor
District, and w. H. Hidlay is the
treasurer. These gentlemen it will
be remembered, formerly filled these
same positions. Last fall they were
supplanted by T. ]. Vanderslice,
Esq, as solicitor, and M. Millelsen
as treasurer. The resignation of
one OF the directors, w. B. Allen,
made vacancy on the board whic h
was filled by the appointment Of
Francis r. Drake The directors
held a meeting on Saturday, and
by the votes Of Ewes and Drake,
Vanderslice and Mllleisen were
dropped, and Johnston and Hidlay
were re-instated.
These changes in the board ap-
pointments are merely the changes
In the political wheel. Last fall
when Johnston and Hidlay were
removed there was no reason for it
except that others had a stronger
pull with the board. Now the
complexion of the board has
changed again, and those who were
removed at an unusual time are re-
instated, also at an unusual time.
These changes have about as much
to do with the recent Register amp
Recorder fight as the man in the
moon.

Wonderful Milk Producer

There is cow" says Prof. L.
H. Bailey in Country Life in Amer
ica, which is now eleven years
old. Last year her record was IT,
400 pounds of milk, with a maxi
mum daily yield of seventy-seven
and three-quarter pounds. This
year she has given as high as nine
ty-three pounds a day, and she
will probably exceed her former
record. In other words, here is a
COW that every month produces her
own weight in milk. She is a
most efficient milk producing ma

SENATOR COCHRAN.

The resolutions passed at the
recent county convention set forth
in a particularly brilliant manner
such good, wholesome advice that
it is worthy Of reproduction and of
the earnest consideration Of every
loyal Democrat.
We refer especially to that clause
which says 1T behooves us then as
Democ ats to sink individual as
pirations and personal preferences,
and get together for the common
good of the Democratic cause, and
mite upon the strongest possible
andidate. Let us therefore choose
n our candidate man whose high
laract r, unquestioned fairness
nd honesty will appeal to all class
3, and cause all factions to rally to
lis support; man who has led the
party to victory in the past" and
should have added will do it a
gain" While the above was
meant to apply to our Congression-
al District, it applies with equal
force to our Senatorial district.
Columbia County is the pivotal
point for not only the Congressional,
but the Senatorial District as we'll.
Let us review the situation for
moment. The last Presidential
election returns for this Senatorial
District, which is comprised of Col
umbia, Sullivan, Montour and Ly-
CO.. ing Counties, shows the total
vote as follows:

Shipments of huckleberries on a

than was expected. 1t was thought
that the cold weather in the fore
part of this month would retard the
ripening of the berries, but this
drawback was offset by the intense
heat of the past week.

Roosevelt's majority


In the face of these figures, and
Of the general political conditions
throughout the country THE COL
UMBIAN is of the opinion that the
only Democrat who can carry this
Senatorial District with absolute
certainty is Honorable J. Henry
Cochran, our present State Senator.
If he can be persuaded to accept
the nomination in 1906, by all
means let us give it to him without
a contest. He is the acknowledged
leader OF the Democratic side of
the Senate. Although the Repub-
lican majority in the Senate is quite
large, yet SO strong is Mr.. Coch-
rams personality in the Senate as
body, and his personal influence
among the members individually,
that his advice and warnings
against vicious legislation have
been needed in many instances.
He is a safe man. Then why not
keep him if we san2
He is safe candidate. First,
because he can be elected, and his
official acts in the past have stamped
him as man of honor, and of un-
swerving Democracy.

Offices such as members of the Leg
islature or the Senate, or of Con-
gress, it should be remembered that

Excessive temperatures prevailed in all

was experienced from the excessive
moisture. Some reports of damage to
crops from excessive temperatures were
