I he limes has hud no intorma
tion from its esteemed friend I>y e,
as to whether or not he has con
cluded to enter the campaign as a
candidate for Slate Land t’ommis
sioner, but we want to say here
and now, that we believe him fully
competent to fill the position, and
should he conclude to make the
race, it will afford us pleasure to
vote for him and do anything we
can to further his interests. We
have known him since ho was an
urchin of tender years, and his
father before him, and his splendid
mother, with whom our family was
intimately associated in years
agono. These associations and re
membrances arc dear to our heart,
and besides, Mr. I)yc being a homo
product of whom we and numerous
other friends are proud, still
further adds to the pleasure ol >
supporting him for any Slate po- '
sition he may seek.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Acts
on Nature s Plan .
The most successful medicines are
those that aid nature. Chamlierlain's
Cough Remedy acts on this plan.
Take it when you have a cold and it
will allay the cough, relieve the lungs,
aid expectoration, open the secre
tions and aid nature in restoring the
system to a healthy condition. Thous
ands have testified to its -.upetioi e\
eelienee. It counteracts any tendency i
of a colii to result in pneumonia. :

There was a prolonged and consid

Mr Oscar Pirtle. of New Castle, was

first man tie ever sued. We hope he
will never have to sue another. An
honest man is the noblest weak of

debts comes very near tilling the bill.

earnestly hoped there will be renewed
zeal in the church work, and that all
who can may come out and enjoy the
service.
“A tiling of beauty l* a joy forever,'
so thinks Mr M L. Monroe, the con
tractor and builder, and he has
fathered his thoughts by making bis
cottage on South Church street one ot
the m ist beautiful homes in the city.
He induced the city by a proffer of an
hundred dollar bill to till m the ugly
ditch adjacent to his property on Cross

his house, in the yard, and is now
putting down a granolith sidewalk and

only one in town which h.t* no front.
