above board. An excellent tic
ket all the way thru was chosen.
The candidates selected by that
convention are out working for
success. They are doing their
part, but the rank and file of the
party in the county must not for
get that it has a work to do, and
that is to render the candidates
every possible assistance in bring
ing about success. This assist
ance can be rendered in the most
practical and effective way by
going to the polls on election dav
and casting a ballot for every
candidate on the ticket and in
seeing to it that your republican
neighbor does likewise. Demo-
Gratis may say to you that their
candidates are competent and
that they are good and deserving
citizens. While this paper does
not deny these assertions for a
minute we want to say to the
republican voters in Delta county
that the candidates on your own
ticket are just as good, just as
competent and just as deserving
and as republicans we owe them
a duty and that duty is to do
everything in our power to insure
their success on election day.
Stand by the county ticket from
top to bottom. There are a
sufficient number of republican
votes in Delta county to elect
every candidate on the ticket and
while this is true it is a duty we
owe those who have accepted the
nominations to insure their sue
cess by casting our ballots for
them. Stand by, vote for and
elect the republican county can

Republicans, Stand Pat

The campaign is on in dead
earnest and it is quite plain that
the democrats will try to stam-
pede republicans by bowling cor
poration domination. The oppo-
sitlon is desperate and they will
say most anything from now on.
Republicans should not be fooled
by the Patterson howl. Your
party has given the best admins
tration OF state affairs during the
past two years in the history OF
Colorado. There has been COM
pentency in every Office. The
business of the different depart
ments has been carried on at
reduced expense and increased
income. The finances of the
state have been placed on a sound.
stable basis. AS is always the
case the republican administra-
ton has been DOING. while the
opposition has kept up contin-
ual howl. 1t is the program 10
make this howl louder and louder
until the close of the campaign.
No better ticket was ever pre-
sented to the people of Colorado
than the nominees of the repub-
lican party. Every man is a
clean, honorable citizen. posses
sing special qualifications for me
duties of his respective office.
The worst thing that could
happen this prosperous state at
the present time would be a
democratic victory and conSe-
quent disturbing of the present
phenominal industrial develop
ment of the states resources.
There is no danger of anything
of the kind if every republican
will stand unflinchingly by his
ticket. If there was ever time
when republicans should stand to
their guns it is now. We want
things to go on as they are; we
want to continue the good times
that are crowding every man and
every industry. We don't want
any clogs in the wheels of pro-
gress. Stay in the party. stand
by the party and whatever in
tluences in the party that are
undesirable will be wiped out.
Roosevelt remained with the
party and fought those influences
he was opposed to. See what a
great work he has accomplished.
We can do the same thing in
Colorado.
We have a splendid candidate
for governor and splendid candi-
dates right down the line. Don't
be fooled by the howl of the big
gest howler on earth, but have
brains enough to see that your
party is the party of progress,
! that it DOES things and that
The Delta independent., 1906-10-19

Republican success at the cleo
tion is as certain as the sun is to
rise and set if republicans go to
the polls. The only danger is in
apathy and lack of interest.

When your friend is running
on the republican ticket you want
all the republicans to vote for
him. You are very anxious for
his success and you don't like it
a bit if your republican neighbor
casts a ballot for the opposition
candidate. You may be the re
publican neighbor" this year and
if so you may be the one inter-
ested in the success of a friend
two years from now. Just how
you can act one part consistently
this year and make kick about
what the other fellow does, later
on, passeth understanding. Let
the candidate who wants your
vote get on your ticket.

The last Adams administration
left deficit of Sl6l. 600, 90: Gov
ernor Thomas had to borrow
Sl4O. 600 from the Denver Clear
ing House to keep the state insti-
tutions from shutting their doors
the Orman administration had
money to pay off this debt of
honor incurred by Governor
Thomas. but frittered it away in
hiring a crowd of useless en-
ployes and special counsel. "
The last two republican admins
trations have paid off the defici-
encies: they have increased the
receipts of the land board over
$500, 600; they have increased the
receipts of the insurance depart
ment over 500. 600: they have de-
creased the administrative ex-
pense Of public printing by
S75, 600; they have handled nearly
100 per cent more cases in the
legal department. at less than
three-quarters of the expense of
the Orman administration. Why
does the state house need clean
ing out? There is only one ans
wer-the democrats want the
offices.
The Delta independent., 1906-10-19

1t is announced that ex-gover-
nor Thomas has climbed into the
Patterson band wagon and i'm
mediately following this is a
statement from Senator Patter-
son that he will not be a candi-
date for reelection to the senate
and he further declares that he
would not accept were the honor
rendered him. 1t is therefore
very plain why Thomas has so
suddenly made up his mind that
being kicked out of democratic
state convention don't amount to
much. His ambition to succeed
Patterson serves as an immedi-
ate balm to his injured feelings.

TO WEAK WOMEN
Of Union City and Vicinity, We Make
the Following Proposition.

ssThere are hundreds of women in
this vicinity who are dragging, them
selves through life In pain and mis-
cry, without vitality, strength or
health said one of the proprietors
OF the Red Cross Drug Store. They
get no happiness out Of life and are
Just ia condition to be attacked by
almost any disease. They need vital
ity-making and siren ct h-creating
tonic
Now at our expense we want to ask
every such woman in Union City 10
try our cod liver oil preparation, Vinol,
which contains in higly concentrate
ed form all of the medicinal elements
of cod liver oil, but no oil or grease.
1t is delicious to take, creates heal
thy appetite, makes pure, rich. red
blood and gives strength and vigor TO
every organ of the body better than
any medicine we have ever sold in our
store, and when a woman is in poor
condition il makes life worth living.
When we say at our expense, we
mean that If the medicine you buy
from US and pay for does not benefit
you, we will refund every cent paid
us for il.
Miss Mary A. Woodward says: Il

Wants to Know How He Stands.

Wants to Know How He Stands.
EDITOR COMMERCIAL: | have
read with interest the letter of K.
N. Moore to the voters of Obion
County announcing himself a can
didate for the Legislature, and /
want to say that in my opinion re-
garding one point it is evasive and
noncommittal, and before Mr..
Moore can reasonably expect the
support of a majority of the peo-
pie of this county he will have to
try again and be more specific, in
order that the people at large may
clearly understand his position.
Now then there is no use whatever
of attempting to handle a great
public issue with long pair of
tongs as If we were afraid some
thing would explode, for the ex-
plosion, if one must come, had
better come in the beginning. Ii
is we'll known that the law court
question was submitted to a popu.
lar vote of the people of Obion
County. The question was thor
oughly discussed in every nook
and corner of the county and |
have yet to hear single intelligent
voter on either side claim that the
election was not as fair, square and
honest as any election ever held in
Obion County. At that election
there we're ,l27 legal white votes
polled and out of that number a
clear, fair, undisputed majority of
S37 declared against the law court
proposition.
Now to the point | am after: If
elected to the Legislature will you,
Mr.. Moore, aid, encourage or APP
prove of any measure looking to
the reopening of this unpleasant
questions This is fair question
and | believe you will answer it
plainly and without evasion. 1t is
quite true Mr.. Moore speaks of
not being IN any way bound up or
pledged to any faction; so then let
him go just a step further and
make plain what be means. He is
noted for his straightforward,
honest way of doing and saying
things. Will he keep up his rep
utation in this case9 Let us see.

HE DID HIS BEST.

1t is said that Marshall Field was
so proud of nothing else as of the
fact that when he was a youth, long
before he became rich and famous,
he was the best dry goods clerk in
Pittsfeld, Mass.
1t may not seem to most people
that dry goods clerking is very
straight road to great fortune.
But Marshall Field found it such.
II matters little what ones work
may be. Being the ''best" at it is
bound to lead on upward.
Fields first job was small in the
common eyes of the world as COM
pared with his later work, but he
was wise enough always to know
that it was the most important
thing be had to do at that time.
As be did that well he nodded
his character, opened his life to
opportunity and made himself
master of fate.
1t was little thing, but he did
it the best he could, and in doing
his best he brought forces into
play which gave his mind the up
ward turn that brings it into touch
with the divinity and makes it an
element of resistless power.
The youth who has learned to
do his best is more than half way
along the road to success.
Doing ones best gives sense of
completeness, of efficiency, of be-
ing master of ones work, not slave

to it, and being equal to any pos
sible emergency.
We are apt loosely to think that
Marshall Field became a successful
and great man only as be achieved
worldly great things. But not so.
He became successful and great
when he did his best in his first
humble job.
He there and then caught the
conspicuousness that is the key to
the riddle of life.
With all his commercial achieve
ment that has made the world won.
der, with all his millions of money,
with all the satisfaction that comes
with realization that honor and re-
ward have been we'll earned, the
old man still found his greatest
pride in the fact that when it had
been his humble business to be
a clerk he had been the best.
Doing ones best crowds any life
full of success, and the satisfaction
at last of having done it is the rich
est reward this world can give.

]. W. BuRNEY FOR rLoArER.

In this weeks Commercial we
have the pleasure to announce Mr..
j. w. Burney as candidate for

house of the Tennessee General
Assembly at its next meeting.
Mr.. Burney has been citizen of

and when a young man was en-.
gagged in teaching and the study of
law. He was married and entered
the profession at Newbern, after.
wards locating in Union City. 1t
was only a few years, however,
until he returned to the school
room and to Dyer County.
Mr.. BurneY is a clean cut, Chris
tian gentleman, conscientious in
politics as we'll MS religion, inteIIi-
gent. efficient and capable in every
way for the halls of legislation.
He is admirably equipped for the
Legislature, and in addition to this
stands shoulder TO shoulder with
the farmer, the teacher, and all
citizens alike. He is Democrat
of the old school, born and bred
in the principles of Democracy, at
the same time belonging to no
faction or clique. He was not
brought out by anybody but be-
came a candidate of his own Volt
ton, free will and accord. He
became a candidate because he
wanted to 90 to the Legislature
from the richest and best section
of Tennessee, also to represent the
best people on earth. This is why
Mr.. Burney is candidate. He
has no axe TO grind, and upon these
grounds he asks your vote, pledg-
ing you his best efforts to serve
you faithfully, conscientiousIy and
intelligently.
