JOHN D. BRIGHT.

The Picayune has the announce
ment of John D. Bright fer Tax
Assessor Of this county. Mr..
Bright has served the people, or
will have served two years, at
the expiration of this term, and
we have heard fewer complaints
perhaps than in years of the
matter of assessments. He has
attended the duties of that office
without favor to anyone, doing
what he deemed right and lawful.
Mr.. Bright will very likely have
no opponent this time, and wheth-
erhe does ornot he will appreciate
your hearty support, and we be-
speak for him fair consideration
and a big vote on March 25th.

Thu icy hand of death has been
thrust into our midst, and our worthy,
respected and faithful brother, James
Wood taken from our ranks.
Uncle Jimmie. as he was commonly
called, was one of Hampstead county's
oldest eitlzer@ He joined the Redland
Baptist church fifteen years ago and
remained member until WelAtille
Baptist church was organized in 1897
when he became one of its first mem

tears of JOY 10 his eyes of the hope he
had Of home in heaven.
He died February 3, 1905. He was
about eIghty-tive years old. He leaves
a wife, four sons and a number of 9th

JOHN N. HAlT0M.

Today we are authorized to an
nounce John M. Haltom as a
candidate for the office of sheriff
and collector of Nevada county,
subject to the action of the dem
ocratic primary of March Is.
Mr.. Haltom came to Nevada
county in 1876 and moved on a
| farm near Rosston, but in the
fall of the same year he moved
to Emmett, where he resided UNI
til five years ago. All of this
time he was engaged in farming
and buying cotton seed in the
/ fall. When Mr.. Haltom came to
Prescott he engaged in cotton
and cotton seed buying.
He has never missed voting
since he became a voter and all
the votes he has east have been
in the interest Of the democracy
Of Nevada county.
Mr.. Haltom believes that it is
the peoples prerogatiye to say
who shall serve them as officers,
and he has always sanctioned
the action of the majority. He
asks that the democrats of Ne
vada county act as a jury in his
case, and if they find that he is
worthy and competent tG serve
the people as sheriff, to render
such a verdict on March Is.
This is his maiden entry into
the political arena as a candidate
but knowing him as we do, we
can commend him to the voters
of Nevada as a man worthy of
their suffrage, and We respect
fully ask that his claims be con-
sidered. Should John NJ. HaItom
be successful in his candidacy
Nevada county will have an a /
sheriff.

Perhaps the most ambitious attempt
at transportation on record has lust
been made at Frankfort on the Main.
Germ ny. and the results are beng
eagerly watched by botanlsts says the
New York sun. The Oldest yew tree In
Germany, perhaps In the world, has
been removed from the old Botanical
garden, which the municipality is about
to use for some other purpose. to the
new one. The distance traversed was
about mile and a quarter.
The tree was moved not on account
OF any special scientific value. but for
sentimental reasons. Its age Is estl-
mated by some authorities at zoo years,
and II seemed sort OF sacrllege to cut
It down without an effort to save II.
Preparations for the removal were
begun three years ago under direction
OF expert botanlsts. The principal OPP
grafton was the clipping OF OF the ten
drills OF the foots to a radius OF about
ak feet This was gradually done,
few at time. so that the tree might
accustom itself to their loss. About the
