| have not attacked the ances-
try of Mr.. Hammer because /
know full well that he comes
from a highly respected family,
but then a man cannot be judged
by his progenitors, but must be
judged for his own qualifications
alone.
Mr.. Hammer, / will admit, was
born and raised in Vernon coun-
ty, but because a man was born
in Vernon county does not make
him a better man than a person
born outside of the county. nor
should he be favored with an
Office just because his birth place
was Vernon county. There again

judgment and will say that if
your own judgment tells YOU
that Mr.. Hammer is the better
man of the two, then | want you
to support him because of the
two men Vernon county needs
the best. On the other hand if
your judgment tells you that /
am the better qualified, then /
will greatly appreciate your sup
port at the September primaries.
1t is matter of record that |

resident of Vernon county, which
record will speak for itself and

Remarkable Temperance Document

In the issue of the Western Chris.
ian Advocate of August 10, 1861.
Cover fifty years ago), was found a
remarkable temperance document. 1t
appears that the Hon. Edward C..
Delavan, Of South Ballston, New
York, and at one time secretary of
state for New York, had taken it up
on himself to secure the signatures of
the different presidents of the United
States, that had served during his
lifetime to the following document.
"Being satisfied from observation
and experience, as well as from
medical testimony, that ardent spirits
as a drink, is 10 only needless, but
hurtful and that the entire disuse of
it would tend to promote the health,
the virtue and happiness of the COM
munity we hereby express our con-
viction that should the citizens of the
United States, and especially all
young men, discontinue entirely the
use of it, they would not only promote
their own personal benefit, but the
good of the country and the world.
''James Madison, John Quincy
Adams, Andrew Jackson, Martin Van
Duran, John Tyler, James X. Polk,
Zachary Taylor, Willard Fillmore,
Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan.
Abraham Lincoln"
1t is a matter of great regret that
MIR. Delavan had no successor to Sc
cure the signatures of later presidents
and thus have an unbroken chain OF
evidence against the arch-foe of the
human ace.
The only path to salty is through
total abstinence. While many ma,
make a temperate use of alcoholic
drink, there is not one that is not Ii
able to contrCt a habit from the us,
Of alcohol, the most insidious an,
tempting foe the human family j
obliged to meet.

Mo. Pac. Hospital Service.

The management of the entire Hospit
Mountain System is to be turned over to
more than al 900 employees of these Com.
pauies on the first day Of August. Here.
to fore the hospitals have been operated
as part of the railway system.
The hospital properties to be operated
by the employees consist of large hospitals
in St. Louis, Kansas City and Little
Rock, a joint arrangement at Texarkana,
Ark. with the Cotton Belt Railroad for
the use Of it's hospital there, and arrange
ments at more than thirty other points
along the line with sanitariums which
look after the sick and disabled for the
Company.
In order to build and establish the hos
pitfalls and to obtain for them the needed
credit for their proper conduct, it was
necessary for the Missouri Pacifc-Iron-
Mountain System to advance funds and
take change of operating the institutions.
All of the employees and officials of the
Companies have been paying a small as
sessments each month based on the
amount of their salaries. No~ that the
Hospital Service has become self-sustain
ing the railroad company has decided to
turn it's management over to the employ
es who contribute the funds.
Under the plan devised and outlined
in a circular issued lbs +. J. Pearson, FRS,
Vice President of the Companies, there
is to be established a board of nine Hos
pital Service Managers, of which the
Chief Surgeon of the Companies is to be
ex-oflicio chairman. He is also to he ex
oficio charm III of the committee, which
is to consist of three members Of the
board. The remaining eight members
of the board are to be chosen from the
following departments of the railroads
each department being allowed one rep
resen,ative: Train, Engine and Yard Ser
vice; Shops, Round House and Repai,
Yards; Employees On Maintainance o
Way and Structures; Photographers, Ofic'
and Station EMPLOYEES; Operating Depart
ment; Law Department: Accounting De
partnent, and some other department
that may be without representation.
This board elects a secretary, who |
not to be one of it's members, AM
fixes his salary. The Accounting an,
Treasurer Departments of the Railway
will handle the hospital ~ccounts an'
funds free of charge under the direction
of the hospital board, The railway Com
pany is to pay full salaries to all employ
es while performing hospital duties. Tn

always actively interested in religious
work, paid surprise visit to mission
school in the east end of London and
told a class of boys the story of Sam

lordship added:
''He was strong, became weak, and
then regained his strength, enabling him
to destroy his enemies. Now, boys, If

me to do?'

secret of that great giant strength,
