Here is a woman who speaks from
personal knowledge and long exper-
ience, viz: Mrs. P. H. Brogan, of Will
son, Pa, who says: ''I know from ex-
perience that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is far superior to any other.

cells it," For sale at Barker's Drug

Sunny Jim" Sherman.

His smile won the vice-president
the title of Sunny Jim" Sherman.
In victory or, in defeat, the smile
was ever there and so successfully
did he smile and cover up his pain
that the entire world was startled
when the news flashed out three
days ago that he was dangerously
i'll. ~-*.
His death less than a week be-
fore the general election presents a
situation that is unique in the his
tory of the country. Under our sys-
tenn of electing a president, We bal
lot for electors and they in turn
elect the men for whom they have
stood. In case that the Taft and
Sherman electors win in majority
of the states, they will now ballot
on Taft surely. Who the candidate
for vice-president will be may be de-
cided at some sort of convention or
by the national committee of the
Republican party. In case no vice
president is named by the electors
the election will go to the senate.
In case the senate does not elect by
March 4. the president pro tenn of
the senate assumes the Office of vice
president.
The campaign this year will go
down in history for it's unusual COM
plications. The fight made by Roose-
Roosevelt 4 in Chicago the Bull
Moose convention in August, the
winning of Woodrow Wilson at Bal
timore, the frenzied campaigns of |
the candidates, the shooting of
Roosevelt, and the death of Sher-
man are all circumstances that are
far from usual. The country will
wait with eagerness the announce
ment of who will succeed Sherman.

mated that perhaps it was not the
most judicious expenditure Of the
taxpayers money that might ~
made Several years ago : pretty
good outlay of money was spent on
that part of the town with very I'M
satisfactory results and every care
should b. taken not to have repe-
tition of that experience.
Any man Oh set Of men who under
take public work must expect
and should welcome criticism. We
are anxious to have good streets in
Westminster, in every part Of the
town, and if the very best method

say. But we should at least like to
be assured that it j. the very best

THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS.

We are now entering upon a Presi
Dental campaign, the result Of which
will b. of the highest Importance tc
the people or our country The Re
publican convention at Chicago and
the Democratic convention at Balti-
more, were both notable gatherings
ending with the two parties in en-
tirely different conditions. The Dem
ocratic party has never been, in any
previous campaign, more thoroughly
united, and the Republican party has
never before been so disrupted. This
j. the way the campaign starts, the
Democrats with a candidate upon
whom all unite, and the Republicans
broken into two factions, each war
ring against the other in the bitter
est manner.
Tn this condition it is not difficult
to predict the result. The election
Of Gov. Wilson, the Democratic can
didate, can be predicted with as
much certainty, as any event that
has not actually transpired.
And that j. just the situation fri
which We think it well to utter a
word to Democrats.
First, Democrats must not lie down
in the belief that the election can be
won without exertion upon their part
They must not conclude tnat because
the Republicans are weakened by dis
sentions in their ranks, therefore it
is not necessary for them to make
any special effort This would be
taking an improper, and altogether
indefensible view Of the situation.
An election won in this way would
not reflect credit upon the great
Democratic party of the country.
We want our party to win, not be-
cause the Republican party is weak,
but because the Democratic party il
strong.
We think it quite true, that if the
Republican convention at Chicago
had been harmonious, and had nomi-
mated either Mr. Taft OF Col. Roose-
welt, the result would have been, a.
1t will be, a Democratic victory in
the country.
All indications point to the fact,
that the American people are tired
off the Republican party and it, poll
cies, and want the Democratic party,
which had charge of the government
in the earlier and better days of the
republic, to again come into power
With this manifest public senti-
ment, the fact that the Demo-
cratic convention has presented to
the country, so good, and so sane and
so safe candidate as Gov Woodrow
Wilson, gives the people the oppor-
tunity Of attaining this desirable end
What the Democratic party should,
and doubtless will do, is to show to
the country at the coming election a
sweeping majority, both in the popu-
lar vote and in the Electoral College
And to this end, an active and ener-
getic campaign should be inaugurated
at once, and pursued vigorously I'M
til the day of election.

ARE WE DOING THE BEST THAT
CAN BE DONE FOR OUR STREETS

A member Of the city council has
taken us to task for presuming to
make any criticism about the method
of improving the streets in the West
end OF town. IT. even calls The
Advocate names and accuses u of
knocking" instead Of boosting" the
town.
The Advocate has always been
pleased to boost" Westminster and
to call attention to the many features
which make it most delightful place
Of residence We have the best in
terests of the town and the taxpayer
at heart, and it was in furtherance
OF those interests that we called at
tention to the slow and injudicious
method Of repairing the street in the
West end.
Several complaints have been made
from residents Of that part Of town
of the unnecessary digging I'D of the
stones On the side Of the street ant
throwing them into the centre of the
street, and hauling other stone fol
the side, when the matter could be
very much facilitated by putting the
new stone On the street without dig
