Mr.. James F. TempletOn,o of Waynes-
boro, has announced his candidacy for
the House of Delegates, subject to the
Democratic primary. Mr.. Templeton
has received a flattering call and is
fully warranted thereby in respond
ing.
This is his first appearance in the
political arena and it is net unnatural
that he enters with some hesitancy,
and perchance timidity. But be is no
tyro in the business world. He has
long been in the thickest of that fight
and one who has been able not only to
hold his own in the throes of adversely
and strengthen his grasp when pros
perity came as he has done, ought to
be judge of business methods; and
ought to be able to take care of the in
terests intrusted to him, as he has
taken care of his own. Should it please
the Democrats to nominate Mr. Tenn
pleton it is our belief that he would
act in all matters conseientiously, and
give. faithful, painstaking, energetic
attention to such matters of interest as
would be dealt with by that body. He
is energetic, active and capable.

James R. Kemper.

In this weeks issue will be found
the card of Mr.. James r. Kemper, who
announces himself a candidate for the
Legislature, subject to the Democratic
primary.
Mr.. Kemper is well-known to most
OF the people in the county and city
as one of our most progressive and sue
cessful farmers. He is large land
owner. and necessarily a large tax
payer and thus would be affected by
any legislation adverse to the public
generally. Mr.. Kemper has never
been in politics, indeed, we believe, has
never sought office and never filled an
elective one, but this is not because he
has not been considered suitable per
son by his friends. He has for some
years been regarded as safe and accept
able for public place but he has not
allowed his name to be considered.
Now he yields to the insistence of
friends and enters the lists. There is
no question about the fact that if
chosen Mr.. Kemper will do all in his
power to fulfill all the obligations of
the office.

ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by proper treatment of the kid

hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through

the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. It stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.

sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and

Banker Killed.

News of a fearful tragedy comes
from Durbin, w. Va. While Mr..
Glenn Mauzy, cashier of the Bank of
Durbin, was on Thursday last for the
first time driving fin person an auto
mobile which he purchased two weeks
ago he plunged headlong with the ma
chine over a precipice, falling $50 feet
and breaking his neck, dying instantly.
A gentleman who accompanied him
jumped in time to escape harm. The
machine lodged 30 feet from the top.
Mr.. Mauzy was driving his machine
along the Parkersburg pike overlook
ing the Greenbrier river. 1t being a
new experience to him, he by accident
turned the steering gear the wrong
way, and seeing he was driving
straight toward the brink of the pre-.
cipiee he became paralyzed and held
the machine firmly in the way it was
going. His companion, realizing the
danger, reached across and attempted
to steer the machine to safety but
could not shake Mr.. Mauzy's grip, and
then seeing what was coming jumped
out just in time, while the owner OF
the machine went ON over to his
death.
Mr.. Mauzy was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. George w. Mauzy, of New Hamp-
den, Highland county, where he was
born about 3S years ago. He was
cashier of the Bank of Monterey until
about two years ago he became cashier
of the Bank of Durbin, and he was
universally esteemed. He was unmar-
ried, and a member of the Methodist
church. The burial was at his native
place, New Hampden.
