BE A CITIZEN.

THOSE persons who did not regis
ter this week will have another and
last chance on October and Z. Any
man who fails to register this year
will not be permitted to vote. We
have said this so often that we are
ashamed to say it again. We find,
however, good many people do not
understand that this is an entirely
registration does not help bit, that
you must go to your voting place and
have your name put on the registra
ton books anew before you can ever
vote again. Some trouble? Yes. But
government involves trouble and gov
eminent with US is theoretically the
peoples government-yOur govern
ment. Actually and practically, it is
largely the political m~cnine's govern
ment, and that because the machine
takes the trouble to get hold of it..
The machine gets its voters on the
registration books and gets them to
the polls on Election day. Hence its
power. The powerlessness of so many
good citizens arises from their unwiI-
lingness to "take trouble" A good
many such citizens haven't registered.
A good many of them won't register.
No wonder our politics and therefore
our government is cLn,roiied by such
m-representative men. It makes one,
in WEAKNESS and disgust, almost wish
at times for government by despo-
tism', instead of government by the
people. The people seem so indiffer-
ent to their government, SO false 70
the great trust committed to them.

\ GOOD CANDIDATE.

WE are glad the Republican party
is able to present to the voters of this
Congressional District so entirely an
acceptable candidate for Congress as
Mr.. Robert +. Duer, of Somerset
county. We began to fear for time
that no candidate would be offered
us, of first rate quality. We do not
hesitate to say that Hon. Jesse d.
Price is not the sort of man whom we
admire or can endorse in public life.
He is eminently acceptable to the poll
teal machine, of which he has so long
been an intimate part. But he cannot
be acceptable to the class of citizens
for the peoples welfare-not for the
politicians. On the other hand the
nominee of the Progressive party
Captain George W. Truitt, while
very good man and citizen, is a long
ways from being Congressional tim
Der. Under such circumstances, it
began to look as if the conscientious
voter would have to "take to the
woods" Mr.. Duer's nomination re-
lieves the situation. A man of the
highest character and of fine intel
lectual equipment, any citizen can
have pleasure and sense of entire
propriety in giving Mr.. Duer his vote.
What are his chances of election? We
cannot say. We know that there are
a great many people in this Congress
sional District who follow blindly the
dictates of the old Democratic mach
inc. But if the people voted as good
sense and good conscience dictated,
We believe Mr.. Duer would be easily
elected-because he ought to be.

"REFUSED."

"Refused Notice" Every editor has
received them. The postmaster sends
them to the editor. For instance, there
is man by the name of John Blank,
who refused to take his paper out of
the postoffice. He did not want it any
longer, and we wond cred what was the
matter. Upon investigation of our
subscription book We found that John
was short $50. He stopped the
paper as matter of economy to US.
One evening we went to church, and
Johns melodious voice rang out loud
and clear in that soul stirring song,
"Jesus Paid 1t ALL" We might have
been mistaken, but his earnestness
impressed us. The next day we sent
him receipt in full, begging his par
don for not knowing he had made
arrangements for his liabilities in that
manner.-EXchange.

Grand Jury Report.
On Wednesday afternoon the Grand
Jury had COMPLETED its labors and
submitted its written report to the
Court, through it's foreman, Charles
c. Griffith, and VIM. r. Logan, secre-

First and Fifth and Ninth districts,

nature from their respective districts.
We recommend that all Constables be
instructed to appear before the Grand
Jury in the future. We have eXamiA-

missed 6. A committee, consisting of
John M. Clayton, Stephen Ash and
Charles w. Mckinney, visited the
Almshouse and Insane Asylum and
found everything in satisfactory con-
dition. The Grand Jury visited the
Jail in a body and found everything
neat and clean, but recommended GER
tain repairs to the jaI; which the
Court ordered the Clerk to transmit
to the County Commissioners, as the
custodians of the couE'y property.
In charging the Grand Jury, Judge
Constable directed them to examine
carefully the traders license books
and 10 indict any who nad failed to
comply with the law. The Grand
Jury's report does not state whether
they complied with this direction Of
the Court.

WHAT TO DO FOR NEURALGIA

The one great'symptom of neuralgia is
pain the one great cause is lack ofnutri-
ton for the nerves, in plain lapguage-
starved nerves.
There are two things TO do for any
form of neuralgia. Apply heat to the
affected part to soothe the pain, and feed
the nerves by taking tonic containing
the elements needed by them. Heat, as
afforded by hot flannel, hot water bags,
ETC., lulls the inhamed nerves into tenn
porsry quiet. 1t does notcure. Not un-
til the nutrition of the nerves is restored
will the inflammation subs:de.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills furnish to the
blood the needed elements and the blood
conveys them to the nerves. The only
way OF getting food or medicine to the
nerves is through the blood. Remember
that.
Neuralgia is a general term. II means
Inflammation of nerve. It is given diff
ferent names according to the nerve af-
fected. Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatic
nerve. Application OF heat will soothe
the pain in all forms of neuralgia and DR..
Williams Pink Pills will correct the con-
dition that caused it.
Your own druggist sells DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and the DR.. Williams Medi-
cine Co., Schenectady, n. T., will send
you a little book on 'Home Treatment
of Nervous Disorders for the asking.
