For Representative the Republi-
cans of Wood County have nominated
Mr.. ]. G. Solether of Jerry City, and
in so doing they have chosen one of
the plainest yet thoroughly honorable
and intelligent citizens of the county
for that high and important office.
He has spent his entire life in
Wood County and by education and
experience is thoroughly conversant
with the best interests and needs of
the people Of the county.
He served as one of Wood County's
delegates to the Constitutional Con-
vention and is therefore very inti-
mately acquainted with the new con-
stitution which will have it's influence
upon the legislation that is passed at
the next session, thus making him
especially able to look after the in
terests of this county and take wise
action on all matters of vital import
ance to the people of the state.
For many years he has been known
as one of Wood County's foremost
men in all that pertains to good citi-
zenship, and in his election the people
will be assured of a Representative
who will represent all that is highest
and best, and tends toward a clean
and honorable citizenship. ADV.

that would be to close his place and

at is so forceful and convincing to
any thoughtful person when he rea.
sons it out that if we buy an auto
mobile, for instance, in Belgium, then
we have the automobile and they have
the money; and when the automobile
is worn out we have no auto, and Bel
Eium still has the money; and If we
buy an automobile that is made in
this country, then we have the auto
the same as before and we also have
the money; and when the auto is
worn out the money Is here to buy
another one, The enormous advant-
age to the American workman and
business man Is obvious.
"And the illustration applies with
equal force to almost every article
that can be manufactured In the
United States.
Our long experience and our best
judgment tells us that If we elect a
Free Trade or Tariff for Revenue
Congress and Administration, 1t will
be followed by serious depression
in all kinds of business, except the
importers business; that thousands
of workmen will be without work; that
many factories will close and others
will go on short hours.

A vivid picture Of the burdens which
British policies and wars laid upon our
infantiie commerce is supplied by the
experience of Captain Daniel Driver
of the schooner Three Brothers. sail
ing to the West Indies In 1850 with
cargo valued at $3.50. First the Three
Brothers was seized by an English
privateer. the King Of Russia. nine
guns. Captain James Inclieto, and car
ried into Antigua. and that was the
last Of her. Sailing again In the
schooner Betsey for Guadeloupe,
French frigate captured and carried
him into that port. where he had to
ransom his vessel for 1000 livres $500
Ind leave three hostages for payment.
Returning with the schooner Mary
under Tag of truce. he was sent into
New Providence by the English priva-
teer Revenge. Captain James Nc
Donald. which. however. had to re-
lease him. He reached Guadeloupe,
paid the ransom. released his hostages
and was bound for home when q Cap
tain Blanche In French frigate ar

him until midwinter. when. penniless
and worn out with undeserved perse-
cution. he managed to get home.-Na-

Easy to Make Space,

"Old Colonel Rufreneddy was night
editor Of morning paper" said the
major, and was night city editor.
The paper was small. and there was
always more than enough to fill. even
when the ads. were at the lowest point.
When the ads. were up 1t was a fight
to get anything into the sheet.
But the colonel had rule that al
ways met the situation. In the early
part Of the evening. just as the crush
was beginning, he would come into the
news room and declare that everything
must be cut to paragraph. Any
story can be told in paragraph
Then he would slash into everything
and as far as possible get things into
paragraphs. even II they required
scare heads. When makeup time came
and there was a food of ads. the colo
mel would throw out the paragraphs
with the remark, IF It isn't worth more
than paragraph 1t isn't worth using
NO; he never had any trouble in
making space for the ads.-New York

Tho lydd Of Lyddits.

/ Lyddite. the powder that has such
enormous explosive force and that can
be fired from a gun which is easily
carried about. does not, as has been
widely supposed. take its name from
a man. but from an ancient town near
the coast of Kent. In England-the
town OF Lydd. where there is gov
eminent artillery range. Here the
tests were made that resulted in the
preparation of this explosive. and the
name of the peaceful Kentsh village
is now associated with a substance
that has dealt out death to thousands.
1t has other odious qualities besides its
explosive force. since its fumes are so
suffocating as sometimes to be intol-

which attaches to the name of Dunn

WEDDING BELLS.


pretty home wedding took place at
the residence OF Mr.. and Mrs. Howard W..
Dunn, on Deane street, last Wednesday
evening. when Mrs. Dunn's daughter,
Miss Ruby j. Quincy, was married to
Alexander l.. Livingston, OF Boston.
The bride is graduate OF the Els
high school class OF 1905, and the class
colors OF red and white were used effec-
lively in the decorations. One corner OF
the parior was tastefuIly arranged in
festoons, making an ideal background for
the ceremony. The dining-roon also was
decorated in the same colors, while the
table looked attractive in white with
sprays OF green.
Promptly at o'clock the wedding pro-
cession entered the parlor, being ushered
in by the music OF the Lohengrin we'd
ding march, finely rendered by Miss M. A.
Hodgkins, pianist. The bride was lat
tired in travelling suit Of blue with
waist of all-over lace over white silk.
The couple were attended by MIR. and Mrs.
Willis A. Dunn. The nuptial knot was
tied by the brides pastor, Rev. p. A. A.
Kiilam, and the ceremony was witnessed
by immediate relatives and friends. The
ring service was used.
AT $3.50 there was an informal reception.
and many friends OF the newly-weds came
to extend congratulations and to enjoy
the festivities of the occasion. The re-
freshments we're delicious, and were well
served by Mr.. and Mrs. Willis Dunn, Miss
Eva Leighton and Miss Winnie Southland.
Even here the class colors were again in
evidence, as each pyramid OF ice-cream
had red cherry on its apex.
Mr.. Livingston is the second officer on
the steamship Lexington, OF the Mer-
chants s. Miners Transportation Co., ply
ing between Philadelphia and Jackson
Vile, Fla, with Savannah as a port OF call.
Mrs. Livingston is we'll known in this
city, and has been successful as teacher,
both in Ellsworth and other towns.
Many pretty and useful presents indi-
Gated the esteem OF their friends.
The happy couple left on the late train
for trip to include Saco, Portland, Bos-
ton and Philadelphia, where they will
make their home. Almost the entire we'd
ding party Though not by invitation) es-
corted them to the train and babe them a
hearty farewell, with several variations on
the theme. They have the best wishes OF
host of friends.
