THE FIGHT IS ON!

With William V. Albury's formal an
nouncement of his candidacy for the Demo-
cratic nomination for senator from this dis
trict, the campaign for the June primary
in Monroe county has started and will gath
er force till the election is held.
According to reports. other formal an
nouncements likely will be made in the
next few weeks.
Nobody definitely has decided to run
for Mr. Albury's present position of repre-
sentative from Monroe county, though one
or more candidates undoubtedly will enter
that contest.
County commissioners, members of the
school board, judge of the criminal court
and county solicitor are other offices for
which there will be candidates.
1t is said that all of the present COM
missioners will be candidates. but, so far
as general political talk is concerned, only
one of them thus far has opposition. No
opposition has crystalized yet to the re-
nomination of the criminal court Judge, but
two candidates are considering taking the
field against the solicitor.
AS Democratic primary campaign is
in the nature of party's family affair." -
and as The Citizen is Democratic news
paper, it will not take "sides" in any con-
test.
The columns of The Citizen, as an adj
vertising medium, are open to all the can
didates. AS that is a case of fairness to
all, it would not only be unfair but unjust
as we'll to candidates who advertise for
The Citizen to give the least publicity to
any candidate who does not advertise.
The Citizen is not in politics, and POI
litical advertising is, therefore, consid-
cred by it just as much business PROPOSE
ton as any other advertising.
That is the only. fair and just rule a
Democratic newspaper can make and adj
here to in Democratic primary, and a SIM
liar condition applies to Republican news
paper in Republican primary, here or
elsewhere.
To do otherwise in a purely party con-
test leaves a party newspaper rightfully
open to charge of favoritism.
1t is an altogether different matter in
a general election. In that case, this pa
per, advertising or no advertising, gives its
full and wholehearted support to the cam
didates of the Democratic Party.
The fight is on: may it be fair and ex-
citing!

AN EARLY TIME TABLE

The first railroad time table pub
1880, announcing the schedule for a short
line out of that city, contained provision
which would appear amusing to present
day travellers. 1t gave the information that
arrangements for special trips could be
made "by agreeing with the engineer"
There was only one locomotive in
service on the road. 1t was the BEST
Friend of Charleston" the first locomotive
built in America and weighed only about
four tons. 1t arrived in Charleston from
the foundry in New York by ship on Octo-
Der %, 1880. and was put in regular serv-
ice on Christmas day Of the same year.
The first time table, which has been pre-
served, contained the following informal
tion:@ !. ~ 4 81, - .
1.-THE public are respectfully in
formed that the Railroad Company
has purchased from Mr.. E. l.. Miller
his Locomotive Steam Engine and that
it will hereafter be constantly en-
ployed in the transportation of pas
sengers.
THE time of leaving the station
i'm Line street viii be o'clock, at 10
a. m, at and at half past 3 o'clock
p. m. Parties may be accommodated
at the intermediate hours by agreeing
with the Engineer.
Great punctuality will be OBJ
served in the time of starting"
But perhaps 100 years from now peo-
pie will look upon the facilities and prac-
tices of the present day with as much
amusement as we now find in looking back
upon those of a century ago.

Lincoln was not the first to use the
phrase, "a government by the people. of
the people and for the people" though he
is generally given the credit or at least his
nnne is associated with the utterance. In
an article written by Etienne CADET, the
French socialist, printed on March 2S,
1851, appear these words: The Commun-
ity is the true democracy. the Government
of the People. by the People and for the

Ten thousand dollars was paid out
to Pine County COrn-HOg contract
signers this week. Payment was made
at several points in the county by
r. S. Harris, emergency agricultural
agent. This payment represents the
first of three payments to be made
between now and about February 1.
Plans are now being formulated for
control program for 1885. In the
case that present corn-hog contrac-
tors favor program, it will be forth
coming, reports Mr.. Harris.
In the event a new control contract
is developed the Agricultural Admin
istratiOn has said that it would be
more simple, more generous with
quotas to allow for any possible in
justices and also that it would be
open to all producers eligible. Also
the contract would be voluntary for
old or new contractors.
Mr.. Harris office reports the Sc
curing of an additional cattle quota
for Pine county cattle purchasing by

by owners for sale to the government
will be moved by October IS. Any

CANDIDATES TALK
AT TAX MEETING
A Good Sized Crowd Attends Meeting
I'm the Madison Hotel I'm
Sandstone.

A meeting of the Pine County Tax
payers League was held at the Mad
ison hotel in Sandstone Tuesday eve
ming and in view of the fact that
it was the initial effort of the or
ganzation, the results were crafty
ing to taxpayers and citizens of the
county who packed the hall.
All candidates for county office
were sent invitations to appear, and
all gave short talks. Three legisla-
tive candidates, Frank Hanson and G.
Elmer Johnson for the senate and
Chas. j. Swanson for the House pre-
sented their views on matters pertain
ing to taxation. C. G. Mann also
candidate for the House, was unable
to come because, being secretary of
the Pine County Republican organiza-
ton, it was necessary for him to at
tend meeting at Hinckley which
was held the same evening.
There is considerable interest being
shown in this type of meetings and
it was decided to hold similar meet
ings in all sections of the county in
the near future in order that the
taxpayers may be informed as to the
stand taken by legislative candidates
on tax questions. DR.. w. C. Ehmke of
Willow River extended an invitation
to hold a meeting there Oct. IL, at
the school gymnasium. More infor-
nation as to these meetings will be
given in the next issue of the county
press.
