Goop roads are indicative of n Na-
tion’s greatness, promoting a desire for
change and intercourse between com-
munities, contributing fresh air and
exercise which are so essential to
health.
Thre Somerset county Orphans are
still without pap. They wanted the
county to be a mother to them, but the
old lady had a number of legitimate
children of her own to raise.—Connells-
ville Courier.
Goobp roads are an evidence of civili-
zation and should be furnished at the
public expense. They stimulate cye-
ling, automobiling, driving and riding,
all of which in exercising the body
divert the mind, rejoice the heart, and
sweep the cobwebs from the brain.
i
THE roads are for everybody, and it
should be one of the first cares of the
community to put them in good order,
and keep them so. It is cheaper in the
long run to lay out a good desl on a
road than to “potter” at the business as
is the fashion in these country districts.
Ar the spring primary election the
highest Orphan vote was 2341. Sinee
John Calvin Lowry, attorney-at-law
and ex-editor of the “Tax Payer” has
acted chairman, the vote at the late
election was reduced to 785. Another
year of this “wise” politican’s bossing
the party, and it can crawl into a knot
hole and pull the hole in after it.—Som-
erset Democrat.
CHAIRMAN-WILL-HE-NEVER-GET*AN-OF-
FICE J. CALvIN Lowry assumed the
chairmanship of the Orphans’ party,
and immediately proceeded to inau-
gurate an idiotic campaign, which
closed in an act of undoubted imbe-
cility, that of congratulating the mem-
bers of his party on the defeat of the
Corrupt Democratic ring. J. Calvin is
a beautiful bird; one whose plumage
and flocking propensities well entitle
him to speak of corrupt rings. As long
as the people of Somerset county per-
sist in putting the triangular ring in
the nasal appendage of said John Cal-
vin, it is not likely that he will root in
or turn up the paying sod of public
office. The electors of Somerset county
sometimes make mistakes, but they
| know a razor-back when they see him.
—~Somerset Democrat.
Tre Somerset Herald pretends to
feel greatly consoled over the defeat of
Commissioner Joeeph B. Miller, and
the old family organ tries to show that
Miller’s defeat is entirely due to the
fight the Herald and Commercial waged
against him. However, the official vote
of the county tells quite a different
tale. The tabulated returns show that
Mr. Miller received 1458 votes, or 109
more than the Democratic candidate
for Superior Court Judge, 289 more
than the Democratic candidate for
Sheriff, 231 more than the Democratic
candidate for Prothonotary, 284 more
than the Democratic candidate for Re-
corder, 305 more than the Democratic
candidate for Clerk of the Courts, 262
more than the Democratic candidate
for Register of Wills, 304 more than the
Democratic candidate for Treasurer,
147 more than the Democratic candi-
date for Auditor, 246 more than the
Pemocratic candidate for Poor Direc-
tor, 200 more than the Democratic can-
didate for County Surveyor. and 200
more than the Democratic candidate
for Coroner. The only reason Miller
ran so far ahead of the balance of the
Democratic ticket is because the Her-
ald and Commercicl put up such a hard
fight against him and pursued him all
through the campaign with falsehood
and misrepresentation. Had a few
more yelping coyotes like the Herald
and Commercial been at Miller’s heels,
he would undoubtedly have been
elected.
BUT FEW ARE FREE.
But few people are entirely free from
indigestion at this season of the year.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is not only the
best remedy to use because it digests
what you eat, but because it also
enables the digestive apparatus to as-
similate and transform all foods into
tissue-building blood. Kodol relieves
sour stomach, heart burn, belching,
and all forms of Indigestion. Sold by
E. H. Miller. 12-1

POWER OF THE COUNTRY EDITOR.
It is not necessary, these days. to re-
buke sneers often made at the country
editor, because these days nobody does
sneer at the country editor. That time
has passed.
Yet it is not because the country edi-
tor has taken to office-holding that he
is an influential figure in the nation.
It is rather in spite of this fact. There-
fore. the exultation of a member of the
rural journalistic fraternity over the
rise to power of many of his contem-
poraries is due to a misapprehension of
cause and effect. The country editor
is a power, not because he is in office,
but because he is an editor.
It is true that the country editor
nowadays aspires to more important
posts than the local postmastership. It
is true that in Xansas, Minnesota and
Oklahoma he has attained tothe Guber-
natorial chair, and that in other
states he holds hardly less important
office. But these honors are, after all,
merely incidents of his chief glory
whieh arises out of his journalistic vo-
cation.
Anybody with strength enough to
draw a salary can be an office holder,
but it takes a pretty good all-round
man to be a country editor. Such a
man must combine business and liter-
ary ability with more political sagacity
than falls to the lot of the average pol-
itician. He must be a diplomat, and a
good one. Must be mixer, possess the
judicial temperament, and, above all,
he must have a reputation for honesty
that is beyond suspicion. It is the pos-
session of these qualities which make
the editer of the patent-inside weekly
a power in his community far out of
the influence which is exercised by the
metropolitan journalist.
The country editor is close to his
constituents. They know him, and if
they support and indorse him he is
second to no man in the power that he
wielde in his neighborhood. If he falls
in honesty or in fairness, he will not
long remain a country editor, because
his influence vanishes with his good
reputation.
It is to the credit of the country edi-
tor that he is, to the number of several
thousands, in full enjoyment of public
confidence, and that he is, incidentally,
earning a good living. He is not second
to anyone in his power for good in this
country, and that his power is right-
eously exercised is known of all mer.
—~Chicago Chronicle.
EVERY OUNCE YOU EAT.
Every ounce of food you eat that fails
to digest does a pound of harm. It
turns the entire meal into poison. This
not only deprives the blood of the nee-
essary tissue-building material, but it
poisons it. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is a
perfect digestant. It digests the food
regardless of the condition of the
stomach. It allows that organ to rest
and get strong again. Relieves Belch-
ing, Heart Burn, Sour Stomach, Indi-
gestion, Palpitation of the Heart, etc.
