LITTLE Deb"

Little Bob Lilly" is asking the
people o, Mercer county to elect
him to repr sent Thorn 4n the iegis-
lature of this state. Let MS look
at "Bob's" record to see If we can
trust him in making Our laws.
Some time be:sr he B.uedcld
convention, Bob was candidate
for the office Of county clerk. u. =.
Bowman was an asp'rant for 4he
Circuit clcrkship, as was also w. y
Honaker Now not oven the astute
politicians, who claimed to be the
Republicans leaders OF this county
could figure out how two men cou'C

man had to be provided for as he
belonged to the Ring" and Major
swore by the eternal Gods that ne
was going on that ticket or it would
go down to an inglorious defeat on
the Bird day OF November. In This
dilemma, it was decided that all
three should be provided for. by
running Bowman for county clerk.
Major for Circuit clerk and Little
B b for the legislature. 1t was
further decided that Major and
Bowman should compensate Bob to
the tune OF $4,000 for the sacrifice
he had made in getting out of their
way, so each one could get an Of
fee, This arrangement was salts
factory to Bob, so he sold out and
became a party to an act in which
county office was bartored away
to a man. who took such an active
stand in the removal of the county
seat.
Citizens of Mercer county: Arc
you going 20 vote for a man to rep-
resent you in legislature who has
once sold out for the sum of $4,000.
Answer by your votes on the 3rd
Of November.

ANSWER! ANSWER!

The Reformer begs to advise Tho
Mercer Republican that 1t is fer Mr..
Walton and Mr.. Hancock, not be
cause they are supposed to be dry
but because they are known TO be-
dry as well as for other good and
sufficient reasons.
What has the state platform to-
do with the morals of a county can
didate? about as much as the Mar
iners compass has to do with tho
running OF a "moonshine stir.
The Mercer Republ' can calls Mr.
Hawley and Mr.. Lilly dry because
the Republican state convention
made some declaration along the
prohibition line. The resolution
passed by the state convention
changed w. P. Hawley and r. c..
Lilly to about the same extent tina;
the lions skin changed the ass TO-
lion in Aesops Fables. This sure
ly according TO the Republican is
case of wolf in Sleeps clothing. .Ir
Hawley and Mr.. Lilly are both max
ing a fight to elect Davis Thorn as
member of the county court and to
install A. NJ sutton as prosecutnl
attorney, and still claim to be dry.
We have heard somewhere some
thing about consistency, but It does
not apply I'm this case.

Boost! It's Worth While

To be booster is to be an optimist
to be fitted with long distance spec
tacles, that brings the great things
OF the future into the close range of
our minds vision. Webster defines
the word boost-to lift or push from
behind lone who is endeavoring to
climb; to push up; hence, to assist in
overcoming obstacles, or in making
advancement.
BY assisting others about us to ad-
vance one brings to his neighbors and
himself the better and more comfor-
table things Of life. His works along
that line may rot justify him for the
best place beyond the end of worldly
things; but he may be such an opti-
mist and booster that he might help
to make things more comfortable,
even in the neither world. A dis
tinguished scientist has come to the
conclusion that conditions might be
found better below than is generally
believed.
In a dream this professor had been
carried to the gate OF the lower re-
gions, which he was surprised to find,
was made of highly polished marble.
Everything within reminded him of .
well-appointed club, even to the re-
freshment which might be obtained
at small tables In coy corners. He
resorted to one of these and was

scrupulous. After all, about al We
can expect from good laws is that
they will work for the good of hu-
manity In the long run; they can't
be made to operate perfectly, be-
cause the law makers are imperfect,
and because human beings and their
actions present such multifarious ~
titudes toward the law. In exclud-
Ing the bulk of the evil, the law Is o.
most necessitated to exclude . fair
degree ofgood, and let In consider
able degree OF bad. The father OF
the boy referred to above may get
slender comfort from the fact that
much good is being done In other
homes by the very law that causes
him hardship, butgood citizens will
reflect that such is the case.

An Unjust Incident

An evidence of the practical i'm
possibility Of framing perfect law
came up in the District of Columbia
the other day, when parent was ar
rested for having his fourteen year
old son assist him In his store after
7 o'clock at night, when business was
unusually brisk and he had to give
bond that he would not break the
law again. Now it seems foolish
thing that boy fourteen years of
age should not aid his father at his
place of business, and at the same
time be learning trade to which he
will probably devote his mature years.
How much better for the boy that
he be employed at some such honest
work At these evening hours instead
Of incurring the risk Of forming dele
terious habits Of idleness and vice on
the street corners, running wild de
gang" And yet, the child-laDor law
will do more good than harm, be-
cause 1t takes many and many a
child from the hands of unscrupulous
employers who would grind the very
soul out OF them In the work they
would have them to do. The first
instance Is unfortunate and unjust,
and probably could be remedied by
an amendment, though it might be
expected that an amendment would
open up loop hole somewhere else
for something unfortunate and un-

The Milwaukee Will Extend.

That the Milwaukee road will the
coming season build .an extension
from their Chamberlain line out
from Stamford or Kadoka to Lennon
on the north line, is . rumor that
back Of it has the appearance Of au-
thenticity. Surveyors are at the
present time working this way from
tho vicinity OF Stamford, and the
road has . survey out OF Kadoka.
Another crew Of Milwaukee survey
ors have for some time been working
along Mexican creek to the northwest
and are now running lines on Ash
creek, near the Cheyenne river.
Parties who claimed TO be connected
officially with the Milwaukee were in
Philip Tuesday afternoon, and said
that the road would positively build
this branch by next year, passing
through Philip and up north fork to
Mexican creek. They have been
making extensive improvements in
the yards at Kakoks recently.
1t Is foregone conclusion that the
Northwestern will build out from
Midland to the northwest in the
spring. The two roads are In sharp
competition, and you can put this
under your bonnet-if the North
western builds q north and south
line from its Pierre line, the Mil
waukee will build . parallel line
north from Its Chamberlain branch.

Rational Pneumonia Treatment.

The most successful physicians are
now treating pneumonia by the ap-l
p!tcation of counter irritants. They
are learning to resist the temptation
to doctor the cough, which, after all,
is only natures effort to relieve her
self, and are endeayoring to reach
the seat OF the congestion without the
use OF iaternal remedies. Some are
using preparations about as pleasant
to the ps 'ent as an application of
mud or putty, but the Wisest use a
pleasant liquid counter irritant. The
ideal remedy is Noah's Liniment. Its
carefully compounded ingredients
possess wonderful powers of pene !.
tration and Immediately reduce the
Inflammation and congestion. Noah's
Linimen is absolutely harmless. anH
can be used freely without cbns,ilta-
tion with physician. Apply IL . linz
iment freely over the point OF pain
or congestion, and saturate hot
5fianae,, and and keep It applied to that
portion of the. body. The effect will
be almost immediate, and in many
cases the threatened pneumonia will
be dispelled before the physician can
be secured. Best for rheumatism,
sciatica, lame back, stir joints and
muscles, sore throat, colds, strains,
sprains, cuts, bruises, collie, cramps,
etc. ror internal and external aches
and pains Noahs Liniment has no
equal. For sale and guaranteed by
