Vegetable Compound to restore their

United States who have been benefited
by this famous old remedy, which was
produced from roots and herbs over 80
years ago by woman to relieve woman's
suffering. If you are sick and need such

the ordinance.
1t is generally believed that the
ordinance will be passed, as great
pressure will be brought by the
church folk. All of the moving pic

REPUBLICANS
MEET TONIGHT
County Committee to Select
Delegates TO Convention.

A meeting of the Republican coun-
ty general committee has been called
for tonight at s o'clock at the head
quarters in Tompkinsville. The call
has been issued by George l.. Mich
OILS, chairman, and George S. Scofield,
secretary. At this meeting the time
and place will be selected for a
meeting TO designate candidates for
Office and delegates to the Republican
state convention, of which Richmond
is entitled to eight. Besides a gov
ernor, lieutenant governor and other
state officers, staten Island voters
will have on their ballots candidates
for a representative In the sixty-third
Congress of the United States for the
eleventh congressional district COM
posed of the county of Richmond
and part of the county of New York,
to succeed Daniel J. Riordan, Demo-
crat; a state senator 10 succeed How
ard r. Bayne; a member of assembly
to succeed Ralph Mckee, and a sher-
if to succeed John j. Collins. 1t is
reported that the Democrats will re-
nominate Riordan. Who the Repub-
licans will nominate is not known.
Under ordinary circumstances 1t Is
difficult to get a candidate on their
side in the strong Democratic dis
trict. In the eleventh district Rior-
dan had a tremendous majority when
he ran last time. 1t Is the belief that
the next Democratic candidate for
state senator will come from Rock
land county, although Senator
Bayne's friends would like to see him
run again. The friends of Joseph f.
O'Grady, chairman Of the Democratic
general committee, are urging him to
take the nomination for sheriff.
Whether he accepts remains to be
decided later.
