Charges for Announcements.
HON. LEWIS BENNETT.

The Randolph Enterprise
last week said: "Hon. Louis
Bennett, of Weston, who at
the behest of various friends
throughout the state, espec-
tally from the southwestern
part, last week announced
his willingness to become a
candidate for the democratic
nomination for Governor.
In looking over the field
of possible candidates for
this high office, we can think
of no one who would make q
better OF stronger candidate
before thepeople OF the State
or who, if elected, would
fill the office with more dis
tinction, credit and ability.
For a number of years Mr..
Bennett was an active and
successful lawyer, but of
late he has been compelled
to relinquish, in a large mea-
sure, his law practice, and
devote his time to his extern
sive BUSINESS interests. He
is, and has been for a num-
Der of wears, one of the most
extensive farmers and stock
raisers in the State. In adj
dition he is largely interest
ed in the production of oil,
and has extensive coal in
terests, and besides being
President Of the Lewis coun-
ty Bank. His varied bust
ness interests assures us that
he would give each and evry
interest in which the State
is concerned, a fair and
square deal in his admins
tration Of State affairs. One
other thing which commends
him as an exceedingly strong
candidate is the fact that he
is not and never has been
allied with any Of the war
ing factions in the party,
which have been for the last
few campaigns, a continued
source of weakness. Mr..
Bennett has always been a
good fighter in the ranks,
lending Of his time and
means in q reasonable degree
in the interest Of the party
success, but has never to any
great extent, been an office
seeker himself. The only
important office held by him
was that Of Speaker of the
House Of Representatives a
few yeors ago. lie filed
the Office in a dignifed and
most pleasing manner. As
a vote getter, he has, in ev-
cry instance when q candi-
date, been strong before the
people, having always lead

chicken crop this year will be ex-

the early spring the birds are
plump and fat. The Williston
nimrods are preparing for the
opening of the season September
first and are expecting some rare
sport. As usual a good many
chickens will be killed before Sep
tember first but the true sports
man is always willing to wait un-
til the season opens and as each
year goes by there is less and less
of the illegal shooting. Hunters
from now on will be training their
dogs and it will be we'll for them
to keep close tab on their animals
for this is the time of the year
when a good chicken dog is most
valuable and there are people who
wouldn't stop one if he wanted to
go away with him.
