from Wood county, for the circuit
judicial district, presented the call ol
his committee which was approved.
A motion prevailed that the chair
name a committee of three to prepare
resolutions endorsing Judge Haynes
Schroth and Fries, and Messrs w. c.
Diebley, G. II. Painter and B. f.
James were named by the chair.
The matter of holding county nomi-
nations on February IL was taken up
and discussed for an hour.
Several who spoke were afraid
that 1t would be considered taking
snap judgment to have the primaries
so early while others argued that
there would be plenty of time for any
one to make canvass as the judicial
candidate and congressional candi-
date would be required to get over
much more territory before February
IL.
Some of those who are to be candi-
dates and who are candidates stated
that it made little difference to them.
Others thought the people could find
out all they wanted to of the various
candidates in month and would be
able to vote intelligently Feb. IL. The
matter of expense was set forth as an
argument for the disposing of the
whole thing at one time. 1t was also
stated that it would be at time of
the year when there was little to do
and when thorough expression of
the people could be had, as there
were issues which would interest
every Republican to get out to the
polls.
The country members of the COM
mittee, in spite of the opposition by
the Bowling Green statesmen, wanted
the whole matter cleaned up and the
motion carried by vote of q to IL.
Judge Nearing then presented a
resolution to the effect that the nomi-
nations for county officers be by di-
rect primaries that they be held be-
tween the hours of one and seven D.
m, on Tuesday, February IL. Also |
that one committeeman from each |
precinct be selected at the same time |
and manner.
The committee to draft the Haynes
Schroth-F'ries resolution then pre-
sented the following which was
was adopted unanimously:
We, the undersigned committee,
hereby heartily approve, and do here

On Friday and Saturday, January
24-25th., the Valentine Theatre will
offer one of the new stars of the
stage, who in single night leaped in
to fame and prominence. Denis
o'Sullivan in Peggy Machree." Mr..
O'Sulliyan is accredited with won
derful voice, which the leading musi-
cal critics on the New York papers
recently declared to rival in quality
that of the noted Caruso. He is ac-
cepted everywhere as one Of the
most capable singers on the stage
and in Chicago where he recently
played, he created whirlwind of en-
thusiasm by the remarkable quality
Of his voice. The play in which he
is appearing is combination of ro-
mantle drama, opera and musical
comedy. During its enactment he
renders ten different songs, besides
taking part in the action of the
drama The Chicago Daily Journal, in
commenting upon this production
said: "As an entertainment Peggy
Machree' can be unreservedly recon-
mended."

On Thursday, January 23d, one OF
the plays brought out two seasons ago
In New York and which has endured
because of the great favor it secured
from the very start, "The Three of
U.s." will be enacted by a splendid
cast. The scenes of this play are
placed in a mining camp in the West.
The story is one of much simplicity,
but each moment is laden with an i'm
pressive human interest, and the re-
suits alternate constantly between
tears and laughter. 1t is distinctly
one of the most cheerful, elevating
creations the stage has brought forth.

ATTRACTIONS AT VALENTINE
THEATRE, TOLEDO, OHIO,
WEEK OF JAN. 10Th.

Blanche Walsh will be seen In
Jacob Gordins domestic drama "The
Kreutzer Sonata" at the Valentine
Theatre Monday, January goth. The
production will be the same as seen
during the recent engagement at the
Manhattan and Herald Square thea
tres, New York, where the play was
the talk OF the town. Gordin has
written the story with a view of illus
trating the possible crimes which may
be attributed to racial prejudice when
people of one country emigrate to
another without having their home
ties and surroundings to guide them
On Tuesday and Wednesday, jan
uary 21-22d, the Valentine Theatre
will offer one of the most charming
productions the stage has brought
forth in years, namely The Road to
Yesterday" offered by Minnie Dupre
and an especially clever company.
This piece is crowded from start to
finish with the most fascinating fam
cies, whimsical and humorous, roman
tic, and tender, and withal thorough
ly dramatic. This piece, when brought
out originally, attracted much atten-
tion and when taken to New York
proved the furor of the season. THE
Road to Yesterday" has had a host
of imitators, which is the surest tri-
butte to the merit of anything. The
company enacting this piece is one OF
the most competent organizations of
players now before the public and a
performance of the utmost effective
ness can be assured.

Below there was smothered confu-
sion and the cracking of matches as
Durand and Chauyenet sought to grasp
the unexpected situation that confront
ed them. The big servant, Armitage
knew, would hardly be able to clear
matters for them at once, and he hur-
riedly turned over the packets of pa
pers that lay on the table. They We're
claims of one kind and another against
several South and Central American
republics, chiefly for naval and mill

their general character. They were, on
the face of it, certified accounts in the
usual manner of business On the back
of each had been printed with rubber
stamp the words: Vienna, Paris,

Armitage snatched up the coat which
Chauyenet had so carefully placed on
the back of his chair, ran his hands
through the pockets, found them
empty. then gathered the garment
tightly in his hands, laughed a little to
himself to feel the papers sewn into
the lining and laughed again as ne tore
the lining loose and drew forth fat
linen envelope brilliant with three
seals Of red wax.
Steps sounded below. A man was
running up the back stairs, and from
the kitchen rose sounds of mighty
groanings and cursings in the heavy
gutturals of the Seryian, as he re-
gained his wits and sought to explain
bis plight.
Armitage picked up a chair, ran
noiselessly to the head of the back
stairs and looked down upon Chauye-

They were silent for a moment, con

was peopling the decks. Dick Clai-

only at meals, but he and Armitage
held night sessions in the smoking
room. with increased liking on both
sides.
Armitage saw something of all the
Claibornes every day In the pleasant
intimacy of ship life, and Hilton Clai-
borne found the young man an inter-
esting talker. Judge Claiborne is, as
every one knows, the best posted
American of bis time in diplomatic
history, and when they were together
Armitage suggested topics that were
well calculated to awaken the old law

The future Of any city depends
largely upon its municipal enter
prises, the way they are conducted,
the service rendered and the charac-
ter OF their operations. These points
have a far reaching influence with
the prospective investor or newcomer
to any city, and furnish the index to
the city's development If these en-
terprises keep pace with the increas-
ing population and furnish good SER
vice at moderate prices. then there
is an air of contentment amang the
citizens which insures the growth of
that city. Following out this line of
reasoning, then we will say that
Aberdeen and HOquiam are destined
to become two large and important
cities, and that the Grays Harbor
Gas company will play an import
ant part in bringing about these con-
ditiOns. 1t is not necessary for us
to set forth any historical events re-
garding this institution but we will
say that Judging from their past OPP
eratiOns their future development
will be all that could be desired by
our citizens.

kept pace with the growth of this
community, and have rendered a SER
vice that speaks vOlums of praise for
the high character of their opera

in the conduct of the business in Or
der to give theirpatrons highly sat

The gas is supplied by modern
high-pressure system of the latest i'm
provement, and in point of equip
ment their plant stands second to
none.
The company now has many miles
of gas pipes laid in Aberdeen and
Hoquiam and they will continue to
extend their lines just as fast as
the patronage demands it and the
cities expand.
In reference to the use of gas it
is conceded fact, that for fuel and
Illuminating purposes it stands SUI
perior, while the cheerfulness is one
of the things to be considered. This
company has their office on West
Heron street, located in the Snyder
block where is displayed nice line
of gas stoves, ranges, chadeliers and
fixtures of all kinds and where the
public may receive information re-
garding the cost and the advantage of
using gas. The business is under
the management of Mr.. N. S. Bur-
combe, who gives strict attention to
the needs of the patrons and is ever
watchful of the company's interests
