Tho year 1912 Is hero In all Its
beauty. With It a number of now
candidates was also ushered Into of
flco. Now faces aro found In all tho
county ofllces with 'tho exception of
two, that of President Judge, A. T.
Searle, and District Attorney M. B I
Simons, All of tho others aro well- 1
known citizens of the county and are
no strangers to her voters.
Tho first and most Important ls
held by our ever popular and courte
ous townsman. Hon. A. T. Searle.
'Ho Is not exactly a new face In tho
hall of justice, but was elected presi
dent judgo of Wayne for tho first
time last November by an over
whelming majority, other commis
sions being made on appointment
Judgo Searle will make an ideal Jur
ist and one Wayne will be proud of
A. T. KEAUIiE.
Next in authority come the county
commissioners, namely, John Male,
Earl Rockwell, Republicans, and Ne
ville Holgate, Democrat. All gentle
men are representative citizens of the
county and wero tho people's choice.
They certainly will bo true to their
trust and undoubtedly will serve
Wayne's interest In a crediblo man
ner Commissioner John Male, a practi
cal farmer and all round business
man, will without a doubt prove to
6o one of tho best commissioners the
county has had. He understands
what Is best for the county, taxpayer
and others having business with tho
county.
JOHN MAIE.
Commissioner Earl Rockwell Is a
lraetial ontrator, understands
"bridge v. ark and ho will bo an invalu
able man on tho board. His mnny
years of exerienco along tills lino
qualifies him for tho position to
which he has been elected.

Rushing Work on Wilson-
ville Dam Basin.
Dusy times these days along the
I'aupack The Wayne Development
company Is getting at tho work of
"reparlng for the big dam In real
earnest Tho preliminary work
went but slowly and seemed to show
' but little results, but now tho val
I ley along tho river begins to look
I like a Held of grass before a mowing
machine.
During tho spring and summer
much of tho timber was taken off by
the company. Now thp whole terri
tory that will be flooded has been
divided Into districts and contractors
have been asked to bid on clearing
off everything in the wood lino. A
number of contracts have already
been let and as these aro finished
otiher districts will be assigned to tho
contractors. The following have
contracts to remove timber or brush,
or both: George Scheier, Mat. Har
loe, Martin & Rose, of Ledgedalo;
James Lennon, of 'Centervllle; C. F.
Harris and Lafayetto Jamo3, of
Lakevillo; Wm. Rauschmaier, of
Wimraers; Georgo B. McLaln, of this
place. These men aro employing all
tho help they can get and already
have a largo forco at work. In ad
dition to these the power company
havo between forty and fifty men at
work so that now there aro nearly a
hundred men employed between
here and Ledgedale.
A largo number of men aro engag
ed in clearing off tho Island between
the old and now rivers and It is ex
pected that It will be entirely clean
ed within two weeks.
By spring tho company expects to
havo all the marketable timber cut
from the basin and piled along tho
river. That which is heavier than
water will be brought to tho mill
by a largo motor boat whloh will
bo placed In the stream early In
spring, tho other will bo floated
down.
The company hopes to bo able to
begin work on constructing tho dam
tho coming spring. A large diamond
drill was placed on tho ground on
Wednesday and on Thursday boring
was commenced to determine tho
condition of tho earth's strata at
different points near the Wllsonvlilo
falls for tho purpose of finding a
solid foundation for tho dam. Until
theso soundings aro completed it Is
said no deflnito location of tho breast
will bo made.
A ropresentativo of The Times In
conversation with Sir. Healoy, the
manager in chargo of tho work,
broached tho subject of a gond Issue
but that gentleman said ho know
nothing agout the matter since ho
did not havo that question to handle.
Tho bond Ibsuo will probably ma
terialize In due time. Hawloy
aimes.
Commissioner Neville Holgato,
who for 30 years has been engaged
In construction work, Is also qualified
to act in the position to which ho has
been elected.

Kindly Feeling for
Their Own Relatives.
Messrs. Mooro and Walsh, tho
Democratic county commissioners In
Luzcrno county, who took ofllco on I
Monday, havo a kindly fooling for
their relatives, and some of tho best
plums in tho county havo been set)
aside for them to wit:
Besides his brother as chief doputy
treasurer at a salary of $1,980,
Mooro has picked his brothcr-ln-law,
Charles Mackln, for chlof clork
in tho commissioners' ofllco nt a sal
ary of $1,980, and his cousin, James
Mundry, as a chief of a department
at a salary of $1,500. Walsh selects
a brother-in-law, Patrick Kearney,
as bridge Inspector, at a salary of
$1,800; another brothcr-ln-law,
Michael Larkln, a watchman at a
salary of $1,000, and a nephew, Ar
chlo Davis, assistant chief clerk at a
salary of $1,500.
Attorney W. S. McLean, Jr , coun
ty chairman for the Democrats, gets
the county sollcltorshlp in return for
helping to land Mooro's brother
Buss gave McLean tho right to
choose tho deputy because McLean
got Buss the nomination. M. J. Mul
liall was picked for solicitor, but
Moore switched for McLean when
McLean landed the brother.
The commissioners havo appointed
T Y Boyd as their clerk. Mr. Boyd
will, without a doubt, make an ef
ficient clerk. He was a candidate
for he ofllce of sheriff on tho Repub
lican ticket.

becoming a Chrlstinn city." Rev. Dr
Lyman Abbott says that It "lacks re
ligion." When doctors disagree!

No Ore inch snowfall wns ever yet
really "removed" by wagons In New
York. The snow can be removed from
u few main streets. For tho rest we
look to the sun. Any claim to do more
than that is a bluff. New York World.
Only two Democrats wero elected
to ofllco at tho last olection, ono
couldn't help himself, and tho other
was tho popular Democratic candi
date for sheriff, Frank C. Kimble.
Kimble will mako a good oilicer of

Kr county treasurer W. W. Wood
graces that ofllce. Mr. Wood Is one
of Wayne's most popular politicians

him for the ofllce to which ho has

When making aprons, especially tho-ii-to
bo used in doing housework, do not
forget n large pocket. It will save
mnny a step In dusting and picking up.
Use a rrnvy boat In filling jars with
