recognized merit. The majority of
the above do not send goods out on
open order, but made an exception in
this case because of the excellent
rating of Montgomery, Bunk e Co.

of work, but its undoubted success
made the effort extremely worth

The Democratic tcontest

The Democratic tcontest fo
Governor will OPEN in earnest
soon after the holidays. There
is already one candidate an,
nounced,> ,>and four q FIVE others
ready to let their wants be
known. This paper will support
at the November election the
man who is nominSted in the
primary. We take lit that no
candidate will go before the peo-
pie in either the primary or the
general election who is not NOR
ally and Intellectually qualified.
After the nomination has been
made every true Democrat
should support the choice of the
majority of the party. 1t viii
be the only road to success.

Walter P. Stamp, was tried in
Louisville, last week, for the
second time, for killing Smith
Russell and was given fifteen
years in the penitentiary. At

from the first, and there is di-

the verdict. Many believed that
he would be acquitted. 1t is a

Russell broke up Stamps home.

CATTLE DYING STRANGELY
Rare Disease or Poison Killing Many
at Pasture i'm Mountains.

AZ PASTURE IN Mountains.
Young cattle pasturing in the Blue
Ridge mountains bordering the Jun1-
alta valley in Pennsylvania are dying
like flies from some unknown disease
or poison.
The carcasses are found along the
mountain streams, where they rush
for water, and either drop dead in the
water after drinking or stagger away a
few yards to die on the banks.
Frothing st mouth or excessive
bloating after death would Indicate
laurel poisoning, but mountain men
claim the laurel is not far enough adj
vanced to be eaten in lieu of short
pasturage, and insist that poison has
been set In the salt ticks visited by
the animals. DR.. S.. G. Hendren, a
local veterinary, suggests it may be
q recurrence of a kind of blood pOis-
oning found mong cattle in Stone I'd
ley last season.
