Gun Club Steadily Progressing.

The Gun Club, which was or
gained here last fall by lovers
of the art of trap shooting, is
progressing steadily and In a
short time will compare favorably
with clubs of larger cities, so far
as equipment and paraphranalia
are concerned. On account of
want of practice no phenominal
scores have been made, but sew
eral of the shooters are showing.
q tendency to become experts,
Several members of the Club
were busy last week placing a
new automatic trap in position
and erecting a platform and trap
house, On Tuesday a number of
shooters gathered and tried out
the new trap. The Club is pre-
pairing to have a big shoot on
May Goth and it is expected that
some handsome scores be made.

Coed Advice to Democrats.

Mr.. Editor: BY reading down
your announcement column | see
that the ticket is now full-other
candidates may GOMEZ only
mean that the offices to be filled
are all aspired to, hence the
thought ! wish to present will
not, think, be premature.
No better, no ADLER, no more
honorable or deserving Demo-
Gratis have ever presented their
names as candidates for the var
ious Offices of the county. In
choosing from among them it
would be impossible to make any
great mistake. We know them
all-or if there be any Democrats
who do not, the Chronicle has
introduced them in terms neither
more nor less fiattering than they
deserve.
Now let the candidates form a
Gentleman's Club, go to some
Summer resort or fishing camp
and stay until after the Primary
Election, and leave it to the vo-
tiers to settle the matter, unawed
by influence and unbribed by
gain, 1t would be cheaper in the
end there would be no sore
spots--and each candidate
would be proud in knowing
that every vote he got was the
honest expression of a friendly
voter.
Some of us might make mis-
takes in selection, but they would
be our own, for which no candi-
date would be chargeable, and
no disgruntled voter could make
it an excuse for even a lukewarm
support Of the ticket.
Try 1t, boys! Substitute "bro-
therly love and Christian chart
ty' for a campaign of buster
and Doodle.

Hon. S. P. Bell Wins in Mason.

A dispatch from PIT. Pleasan,
informs us that on last Saturday
at conventions held in the sever
al districts of Mason county, S.
P. Bell obtained a large majority
over his competitor, Rankin Will
ey, of the delegates which will
select the delegates from that
county to the Judicial conven-
ton; we presume that this ac-
ton on the part of the county in
which both candidates reside as
sures the nomination of Judge
Bell.
The same dispatch also states
that in the convention which was
held in the Courthouse, in the
tywn of PIT. Pleasant, about rs
Democrats were in attendance,
of whom 60 were for Bell and Is
for Wiley: the latter, seeing the
hopelessness of his fight, with
drew his faithful fifteen and pro-
ceeded to indulge in the luxury of
a trump" convention, relative to
the proceedings of which our in-
formant sayeth not.
We regret very much to learn
that Mr.. Wiley saw fit to with
draw from a regular convention
of his party. In the first place
such tactics can work nothing
but harm to the party, and then
we believe the Circuit Judgeship
to be position of too much trust
and responsibility to be thus
trailed in the mire by it's aspir-
ant; we think that this act alone
on the part of Mr.. Bells opposi-
ton fully vindicates the judment
and wisdom of the Democrats of
Mason county in endorsing him
and his candidacy, and hope that
there will be no further opposi-
ton to his nomination.
The Democrats of Calhoun ex-
tend both congratulations and
thanks to those of Mason for
their signal recognition of ster-
ling man, and assure them that
Calhoun will follow the example
set by them last Saturday.

Small Coins.

Three-cent car fare, three cent
schooners of beer, three cent pies,
three-cent loaves of bread and a
multiplicity of other things that
will cost three cents, are expect
ed as the result of the enactment
into law Of the bill which recent
ly passed the house Of represen-
tatives providing for the coinage
of a three-cent piece. The bill
also authorizes the coinage of a
half-cent piece,
The idea of having a three-cent
piece originated in Cleveland,
where they have a three-cent car
fare, and the bill was introduced
by Representative Buckley of
that city. There was stubborn
fight to prevent the bill passing
the house, which has now been
transferred to the Senate. All
the street railroads in New York
city have filed a strong protest
against the passage Of the bill
and the American railway asso-
clation is also waging an active
campaign against the measure.
In general the banks seem to be
opposed to the bill, and most
determined fight is to be made
against it by those who failed to
get in their work effectively
when it was pending in the
house. Cash register manufac-
turers claim that if the bill is en-
acted into law it will cause a
complete recasting Of their ma
chimes, and representatives of
slot machines who opposed it
first now appear to favor it, hav-
ing been assured that the coins
can be produced in such form
that they cannot be used as sub
stitutes for one cent, fve-cent Oh
ten-cent pieces. Some newspa.
pers are opposing it on the
ground that it will mean the an.
pearance of a ha'penny paper
which cannot be afforded on &C
count Of the high price of white
paper.
Notwithstanding, there seem,
to be a strong enough scntimen
for the bill to get it enacted

that it will have a tendency {,
