in this issue; but let the primaries
be held where they have not been

came in after the county conven-

less to publish them in this issue.

news from all parts of the county,
but would like for reporters to
send all news as early as possible.
A carpenter, by the name of M.
S. Powers, fell from the roof of a

Attention is called to the adver-
tisement of the Young County
Nursery, in this issue. Our peo-
ple would do well to patronize this
home industry. Trees which are
acclimated and transplanted when
the soil is in proper condition are
much more certain of a good
growth than those of foreign
nurseries. That is the place to
get evergreens.
Our millinery department pre-
sided over by Miss Davisson is
full and complete, and while we
have had larger sales this
year than ever before since we
opened this department, yet we
can give you any style or price.
You can have dresses cut and
made in the latest otylp and a
perfect fit guaranteed. Wedding
costumes a specialty. McComb,

Cholera infantum has lost its
terrors since the introduction of
Chamberlain’s colic, cholera, and
diarrhoea remedy. When that
remedy is used and the treatment
as directed with each bottle is fol-
lowed, a cure is certain. Mr. A.
W, Walter, a prominent merchant
at Waltersbnrg, 111., says: “ It
cured my baby ooy of cholera in-

dies had failed. The child was so

On motion the convention en-

The last year I was tax assessor
an old gentleman from down east
came up iu the office where I was
making out the tax rolls to see
me on some business, and in a;
very gentlemanly way told me,
that I and the commissioners’ j
court were taxing our people too
high. I told him I knew it, but I
was not able to show it to the
commissioners’ court, and that j
would require facts and figures, I SUFUBlfOr, NotCLTy

The tax assessor is iu a close WIlEi&lifTIlllJlll Kali
place if he makes bis people pay SHOP,
more state tax than other coun-
ties when he knows it, for he is
sworn to make an equal taxation
to the best of his ability. 1
Here is a great mistake, I will
take a tract of land sold in this j
neighborhood for $1500.00. The
tax assessor put it at $1000, that
looks very reasonable, I admit it
does myself, but it is not just.
