There ftui to be a determination on the part of a great many ot the most prominent and influential citizens of the city and eouuty that Mr. Thos. W. ilulli day shall allow his name tu bo used in connection with oltlce ol county com niifsloncr. It Is well-known, how ever, that Mr. HuUiday does not desire the oltlce, and would much rather support some other good man for the place thun to have it him sell. A faithlul discharge of the duties ol the oltice of county commissioner en tuils upon the incumbent particularly if that Incumbent is a resident ol the city a great deal of labor, and requires much time and attention; in lact, much more time and attention than tnot men are willing to devote to It. Mr. Haliiday is an untiring worker in whatever position he is placed, and to this fact and to the knowledge of his eminent fit ness for the oflke wc aM.-ribc the desire of i-o many citizens of the county to vote lor him. As we said above, it is known that Mr. Haliiday does not seek, nor want, tho oflice; but we be lieve that if the people desire him to serve them, and it he can be assured that he can be elected without being com pelled to go into the business ol soliciting votes, in other words, that if he can bo elected without having to make a canvass tor the office, he will not refuse to become a can didate. Alter looking the field all over, and having conversed with citizens from all p:;rts of the county on the subject, wc are convince J that Mr. Hallidiy is tlie proper man lor the phce, and il he will consent to become a candidate he will meet with little or no opposition.

Feeding; the Pauper. f'ommlbsimier Sammohi has a new phn for taking care of the poor at tie poor farm. Under the present system of letting tho keeping of the poor farm out to the lowest and best bidder, the county has lor years prist paid on nn average $i:i 50 per month per head lor their sup port. At tliis rate it costs the county upwards ol two thousand dollars to main tain tho paupers ut the poor farm alobg, to say nothingoftbclargcsuuisoruioney expended on nccount of paupers in Cniro and In other portions ot the county. Mr. Summons' plan is to employ a competent person at a stated salary to take charge ot the poor li.rin, and that the commissioners appoint one of tlieir own number to act as a purchas ing agent, whose duty it shull be to pur- chase all supplies, clothing, etc., for Hie paupers at the poor farm. Mr. Summons' claims that a saving of not less than $1,200 per annum can he made if his plan is adopted, Mr. Summons will bring tho subject before the commissioners at their next meeting, which occurs ou November lUth next. Tho plan suggested Is ob lectionable In many respects, tho chief ot which Is that it would open upon ave nue through hlcli tho eouuty could be mercilessly plundered, and tho paupers swindled out ol their Just dues.

The sooner such a hapless Individual puts the gastric organ in a condition to enjov tho edible comforts which a bountiful providence has provided, the more rsason thero will bo to teel grateful for tho suggestion. To do this, Invigorate tho stomach with Hos tetter's Stomach Bitters, which will en ablo that organ to digest properly, and, since good digestion Is the parent oi ap petite, give birth to n desire for food ut tho intervals appointed by nature. With chronlo want ot appetite oro usually us soclated nervousness, biliousness und constipation, threo evils which are speed ily overcome by tho Bitters.
