The appointment of a county at
toruey, clerk and county physi-
clan is causing the members of the
new board Of county commissioners
sleepless nights and restless days.
Applications by the ton are coming
in. and there is every prospect of
deadlock ever some of the selections
when the new board takes office.
rrhe applications may be divided
into three classes. The first OF the
slate is the old guard republicans
which means the reappointment OF
Jim Munson. Dr. Thadd Parker and
John Halderman. The second Is the
slate prepared By those eccentric po-
liticaI geniuses who talk like bull
moasers and act like the devil, to
quote Bob Cassclls. These are the
progressive republicans who refuse
to Join the third party and won
abide by the mandates of TIE old.
The applicants are: l.. c. Worthins-
ton for clerk of the board, Il. d. Har-
Iington for county physician, and Lee
Burgess for county attorney. The
third class is composed Of indepcnd-
ent and their name is Legion.
siunson Has Good Chance.
The prog. republicans will be sup
uorted by Ben Snyder and william
Briggs, IL is expected, while George
Thompson has given it out cold that
he has no vote for any guy with
horns on. 81 Reed, and a few Of
their friends in this city are making
the fight to get these young reform
ers selected. Their hopes, however,
are being damaged somewhat by the
popularity of some of the independ-
ent applicants. Munson has practi-
cally a straight out and out fight
with WOrthington and is considered
to be a fayorite in the betting. If
/ he trues true TO form the Pomona
, boss will have to look elsewhere for
pie.
For county physician DR. Harring-
with DR.. u. s. Day ii!;' and Dr II. Fread, t1Rf,
/ enberger of this city, and Dr. Roberts
of Palisade, Particularly the two
local practitioners will have good
chances of splitting he vote so as to

accept the marine post folio He was
relieved OF the command of the Med
iterranean fleet in 1909 because OF his
criticism OF the nayy's affairs.
Friends of Dehcasse declare that
his elevation to the foreign affairs
ministry is a vindication of the stand
he took in 1905 when he was forced
out of that position by German pres

THESE ARE PLAIN FACTS

Now, when nearly everybody is
coughing, it is well to know the plain
truth about coughs and colds.
Since coughs are caused by irrita-

bronchial tubes, the only way to cure
a cough is to stop that inflammation.
The only way to do that is through
the bloody making it richer so
that it will nourish and soothe the
inflamed, tender tissues.
Instead of cough syrups we always
recommend that sterling blood and

licious cod liver and iron PREPARATION
