WALKS FOR HEALTH.
Cronley Stops in New Haven in En
 circIing the United States.

|
 Having covered 2,217 miles of his walk around the United States for a promised $2,000, Starl Cronley of Toledo, O., received news from the Toledo Blade that they did not make any agreement with this great pe- destrian and that his daily report to them should be discontinued. as they are not under contract with him and will not pay him the expected sum.
 The great walker arrived in New Haven about noon Sunday equipped with Winchester repeating rifle and small canvas bag thrown over his shoulder and with book full of testimonials from towns along the route. He went directly to the post office and received a letter from the sporting editor of the Toledo Blade stating that they had not asked him to make a tour around the United States. Downhearted he sought the sporting editor of the Journal-Cou- rier, told him of the story of his agreement and of it's partical fulfill- ment, and of his decision to finish the walk at all hazards.
 About five months ago Cronley was accosted by representative of the Toledo Blade, Ohio, in answer to an advertisement put in the paper by the pedestrian, in which the latter said he would walk around the United States for $2,000. The press representative stated that the To- ledo papers, the Blade, Times, Bee and News, were going to get up q purse of $2,000 which they would give him if he would walk from To- ledo around the United States and back in two years and eight months. under the conditions that he would neither steal, borrow nor beg. He started on October 25. 1907, and has been walking since, His method of making money is by selling post cards with his photo on the back.
 Cronley is man about 28 years old, little under the average height. but stocky. He has walked along the lakes, the St Lawrence and the border towns of Maine and down the coast out to the end of Cape Cod, and thence has followed the Shore Line to Stonington. He was in Mys- tic Thursday afternoon and in New London Saturday.
 While in New Haven he stopped at the Jefferson hotel. He left yes- terday morning on his way to New York, hoping to make little over twenty miles day. Now that he sees no money at the end of his journey he has decided to walk the rest of the distance for his health. He has nearly 15,000 miles more to walk.
 Cronley has been advised by many people to write book of his travels after he has completed his walk, but he has not yet decided to do this. The book if written would no doubt be a marvel and bring big amount of money. He feels confident that he can complete the walk in the re- quired time.

More Candidates.

In the candidates column in this
issue will be found the announce
ments of B. F. Jones, c, H. Gard
ner, J. w. Dunn, r. r. Miller
= and j. H. Ross, asking for the sup
port of the Republican voters at the
primary election April II.
Mr.. Jones our present Joint Rep
resentative, wants the nomination
to the Office to succeed himself.
His record during his past term of
office has been good and he has al
ways been found looking after the
interests of the two counties he rep
resents. Mr. Jones needs no in
PRODUCTION as he is well known to
nearly every voter in the two
counties.
Charles n Gardner, has been q
resident of Lincoln county for over
four years, and came to our county
from Portland. Mr.. Gardner is a
Republican, and as we believe,
worthy OF the support of all Repub-
licans of our County and District.
He is qualified for the position he
seeks, and we feel assured, should
he succeed in being elected to the
position of representative, that our
District will be represented by a
consistent Republican, and one that
will give credit to Lincoln and Polk
counties.
Sheriff J. II. Ross wants to sue
ceed himself. NJ. Ross has made
this county good Sheriff during
the past eight years and we know
that if reelected the office will be
conducted in the same manner.
Jay w. Dunn aspires for the
nomination of Sheriff. Mr.. Dunn
is one of our brightest young men
and is co mpetent to fill the office of
Sheriff. He was born and raised
In this county and is a Republican.
He would make this county a good
Sheriff.
Mr.. r. R. Miller who is after the
nomination of Assessor at the prim-
aries is a resident of Nashville pre-
cinct. He is teacher by profcs-
sion and has been teaching the past
three years at Summit and Nash
vile. Mr. Miller is graduate of
an Eastern University and is well
qualified to fill the office. If cleo
