ELECTR BITTE IC THE BEST FOR BILIOUSNESS RS AND KIDNEYS, 19; HDAY GREETINGS. The Editor Under Obligations to His Brother William for the Following Nice Birthday Letter. Fort WorrH, TEX., Dec. 14, 1907. Dear BROTHER: —I am reminded by the calendar before me that today you have reached the 44th milestone in your journey from the cradle to the grave. I sincerely hope it may be at least another 44 years before you reach your ultimate destination. Although T was not quite three years old when I relinquished the old red cradle to you, I seem to have a vague recollection of the bleak December day on which you arrived at the old log cabin in “The Cove” of Garrett county, Maryland, which was our childhood home. That seems a long, long time ago, and in the intervening years since we were boys and played and “scrap- ped” with eachother. as brothers will, our feet have trod diverse paths, but I am glad to feel that as the shadows of the fleeting years bring us ever nearer the time when we shall sink tolsleep in the lap of Mother Earth, we are broth- ers still by ties of sentiment as well as blood. While congratulating you 6n having reached the age of two score years and four, and wishing you may at least double your present span of life, I note with pleasure that you have decided to enter the race for the Legislature. I wish you success in your campaign, as I think you a great deal more capa- ble to become a wise and efficient Solon than the majority of the fellows who misrepresent the ‘people at the State Capital. I agree with you that it is about time for the south of the county to have a representative at Harrisburg. Not since the palmy days of the Hon. Sam Mier and the late Senator Hiram Findlay, I believe, has Salisbury or Elk Lick township had a representa- tive in the legislative halls of the state However, it is not a question of ge- ography as much as of brains that should determine the nomination, and since you are in the right location, and have the requisite quantity and quality of “gray matter,” there is no good rea- son why you should not be the choice of the Republican voters of the county for the office. The Livengoods have nlways been good patriots, and seldom asked for political jobs, which is another reason why your ambition is worthy of recog- nition.. However, if I believed you were simply after the spoils of the of- fice, T would not wish you success. I believe, however, you are inspired by higher motives. Since the trolley has infused new life into the old town of Salisbury, there is all the more reason why it should in the future have an able representative in the legiskative halls of the state Wishing you and your family and all my friends at Salisbury a merry Christ- mas. I remain fraternally yours, W. 8. LivENGooD. I am afraid brother William has complimented me more than I deserve, yet his letter is a most welcome one, as there is much in it to reflect over and profit by, and besides, it makes one feel good to be kindly remembered by those who are ever near and dear by ties of friendship and relationship, no matter how great the distance in miles that lies between us. There is one thing that brother William and all other men can rest assured of, and that is this: If T am successful in being elected to the Legislature, I will ever stand true to my convictions and represent my constituents to the best of my knowl- edge and ability.

And we are pleased to say that to a man they are our friends. It is but natural, therefore, that they should desire to see Tne Srar man go to the Legislature, and it does us good to know that they are anxious for that very thing to happen. One of the latest cheering letters to come to us from abroad is from Elder Howard H. Keim, Secretary-Treasurer of the Indiana Wool Growers’ Associa- tion. Space will not permit tha re- production of his entire letter, but fol- lowing is a portion of it: : “Since your announcement for As- sembly, I have wanted to write and say I am for Peter L. I think you are the right stuff, and would, like Senator Jeff Davis, break over precedent to tell the truth. May success be yours.” WHEN TO GO HOME. From the Bluffton, Ind., Banner: “When tired out, go home. When you want consolation, go home. When you want fun, go home. When you want to show ethers that you have reformed, go home and let your family get ac- quainted with the fact. When you want to show yourself at your best, go home and do the act there. When you . feel like being extra liberal, go home and practice on your wife and children first. When you want to shine with extra brilliancy, go home and light up the whole household.” To which we would add, when you have a bad cold, 80 home and take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and a quick cure is certain.

Stump, of Cumberland, Md., who was recently elected to the Maryland Legislature for the third time, sent the editor of this paper a card, several days ago, containing Mr, Stump’s portrait and the following message : “Hello, Pete, here's luck to you! I am a three-times winner. Want me to tell you how I did it?” Your Old Friend, Joux J. Stump. We knew the Hon. John J. Stump when he was but a wee boy of seven or eight years. At that time he lived with his widowed mother at Oldtown, Md, and picked up many a nickle tak- ing people across the Potomac river to and from the B. & O. railway station at Green Spring Run, W. Va, and doing ‘such other errands and chores as he could find to do. We were in that vicinity selling maps and pictures dur- ing the winter of 1883, and Johnnie Stump ran many an errand for us. He was one of the most faithful little fel- lows in attending to everything prompt- ly and right that was entrusted to him that we ever came across, and like most boys of that kind usually do, he has risen to fame and fortune. We thank Mr. Stump for his kind wishes, and we are always pleased to hear of the success of such men as he is. Evex people who doubt Senator Foraker’s judgement cannot but ad- mire his courage. In Mexico they celebrate Christmas for nine days. Guess there’s no money stringency down there. Ir the depletion of the army keeps on, the Government will have to give trad- ing stamps to indnce men to join. Japrax has offered to build a navy for Spain at reduced rates. Russia should get Japan’s address and write for terms. Tue usefulness of the Panama canal in floating a loan is only a suggestion of the great purpose it is serve 1n float- ing ships. Ir may be said without fear of con- tradiction that the new twenty dollar gold piece is twice as good looking as the ten dollar coin. Tue frequent Democratic harmony dinners also help the members of the party to continually find something new to quarrel over. ——— Having been apologized for by Mr. Bryan, no doubt the dopkey ‘will feel quite elevated. Maybe we will go looking for a lion’s skin. TE Every time some public speaker an- nounces that “the need of the hour is men,” he strikes a responsive chord in the hearts of thousands of lonely wom- en. ———————— NorwITHSTANDING the length of that message, the President will doubtless happen to remember a few things that he left unsaid, before the session ig much older.
