cases in court but 43 years is just a
little long. The other day Clerk OF
Superior Court Cant was called on
to wind up case in doing which he
collected 35 cents cost for the lac
Abram CIapp, who was clerk of the
court from 1868 to 1872 inclusive.
At that time the clerk fixed the
attorneys fee in such cases and in
this instant the late Levi M. Scott

the case was Kirkman VS.. Whitice.
Kirknan was public administrator

The Commonwealth will be the main
issue of the great prize competition
going on. Liberal vote rewards are
given on each subscription and
there is not a candidate in the great
race that cannot be made winner
through this method.
Contestants in this race should
bear in mind that they cannot win
in a day. Be persistent, get all the
promises you can. You will be able
to realize on them all before the con-
test closes. Don't overlook any,
thing that means votes. Inform
YOUR friends that you are in to win.
No contestant is limited to any par
ticular field of labor. Go anywhere
