G. W. Huntley, Esq., and family will

on January 6th. In their departure
Driftwood loses one of its most excel
lent families and a brilliant young law

wishes for their prospeity and good
health follow them —Driftwood Gaz
ette. All citizens of this county deeply
regret the departure of this excellent
family. No gentleman in this county
is more highly respected for his genu
ine worth than George Huntley. He
has a bright fbture before him and we
shall hear, in the future, wo firmly be
lieve, good reports of this bright
gentleman. Keep your eyes on the
rising young men of the west.
Politics Very Costly.
Renovo News, (Dem.)
One of the worst evils with which
Clinton county has had to contend with
for some years past is the too llagrant
use of money, or; in other words boodle
in politics. There was a time when
good and honest men in Clinton had no
hesitancy in coming forward for office,
but that is all changed today. Politics
has become sort of a business affair,
and the man who to-day consents to
run for office must submit to being held
up on the highways and byways, and
if he refuses he well knows what awaits
him.
Yet the very people who are guilty
of this outrage are generally to be
found in the front ranks shouting for
the good of the party to which they
swear allegiance. They goto conven
tions, nominate a ticket and then tell
you what an excellent ticket it is, but
they never say a word about the boodle
part of it and the role they played in
this game of the highwayman.
The time has come when aspirants
for office in both parties are beginning
to realize that the boodle end must be
eliminated, The payment of legiti
mate expenses is not objected to, but
the placing of voters on the auction
block and knocking them down to the
highest bidders is an outrage oil honest
politics and injustice to an honest and
deserving man who would otherwise
seek a nomination.
It has boen said that a determined
effort would be made during the next
campaign to eliminate it, but this we
are afraid can only bo accomplished by
the candidates entering an agreement
and keeping it. There is no reason
why any man anywhere in the State
should be compelled to spend at least a
year's salary to be elected to office.
Yet such is and has been frequently
the ca«e.
This condition of affairs exists in this
county, and the men principally re
sponsible fur it were the leaders of sev
eral years ago. These men at that
time set the p ice, and to undo it now
will no doubt prove a mighty hard
task, because the heelers havo been
educated to it and they expect it and
generally get all they want.
Notwithstanding all this the system
t¥in be and ought to bei mproved upon,
providing the proper course is pursued
by the candidates who seek office.
Honest men mid hout*it newspaper*
will undoubtedly join in the movement
to give the county honest and better
politii*.

Where Bread was Expensive.
Philip Harman, who lives in Wayne
town-ship, Armstrong county, near
Dayton while in Punxsutawney the
other day told how he had once paid
S3CO for a few buns and thought he was
doing well. lie was in Belle Island
Prison during the Civil War and hav
ing a note for §125 payable in gold with
six per cent interest at the Indiana
Bank, he exchanged it for $-10 in Con
federate money and a note for the bal
ance. A dollar in gold was then worth
about $2.25 in greenbacks, and he never
realized anything on the note, lie gave
what was equivalent to S3OO in United
States currency for S4O in Confederate
currency, worth at that time perhaps i
one dollar in gold. For the Confederate !
money he received a few buns, and to
a man in Belle Island Prison at that |
time a bunn was cheap at SIOO. Conse- |
quently Mr. Ilarman thought he made j
a mighty good deal.—Punxsutawney !

The appointment of Mr. Cortelyou, !
Secretary to the President, to the head '
of the new Department of Commerce i
and Labor, when created, is generally
conceded. Many men in the Presi
dent's position would be too selfish to
suffer the loss of Mr. Cortelyon's ser
vice as secretary, even to secure to him
a promotion that he well merits.
Many people have forgotten that the
Monroe Doctrine was first outlined by
Great Britain. The United States can
better take care of itself than can Can
ada, and than England can care for
Canada. While the Monroe Doctrine
stands, Canada, with her immense
boundaries difficult to garrison and
protect, is safe from European aggres
sion.

Kodol does for the stomach that which

Kodol supplies the natural juices of diges

flamed muscles of that organ are allowed |
to rest and heal. Kodol digests what you 1
