The new law concerning primaries cnu-'ol pnnin cnnfuMlon but nfler a trial of tliis methoil fur a year ov two we will get used to it. The method of reporting tlmt a eerlnin candidate wn- out of the rnee is not borne out by the results. The iron for the bridges on the new rood has been lost somewhere and the work of filling in (s much delayed but the grading in almost ready for the cracked stone and we will soon have a good road even If we dont get any more. Vrnm all sides one hears the report thnt there are no apples and yet Ib'vcnl-uan's cider piess i doing a thriving business and our topers will have their cider. Talk about fish laws, no more of them fur me. 1 went fishing at Diugmans Kerry ami fished for all I was worth till noon and never had a bite. Another city chap fished along side of me and had the same luck I had and we both cussed the fish laws and fi-li too. Peter Teac h and Wes Vanauken over along the river are said to he.ve the best pieces of corn in this town. Moth men are first class farmers. When our freeholders asked for MS, 000 for building good roads all thought we were on the way for having lots of good roads in the near future, but as the freeholders did not certify to the county equalization board that such sum would be requir ed the whole matter has fallen through and our promised good roads have vanished. The board of free holders have acted like a lot of school boys in the matter of good roads blowing hot and cold according to whom they were talking. The era of good roads is here to stay and a few changes in the board would be beneficial and I hope the various townships will abe that those changes are made next spring. Alfred llevans is building a second silo and will commence filling one this week and will fill the other as soon as it is completed. The county press is pounding the I). U A W. It. It. for its beastly way of getting the people away from Newton on the evening of the second of September. As for their pounding it is like pouring water on tiie back of a i luck. The Sussex telephone wire from Layton to llevans is partially down and nearly all of the glass insulators have been brcken by small boys throwing stones. Dr. Miller should make an example of some of those boys and that would stop the stone throwing. Mr. and Mrs. O. E. Hursh of Layton spent a part of last week in sight seeing in and around New York. His account of the wonders of Coney and Luna Park creates a desire to see those great sights. Corn cutting has commenced and the crop is the poorest known in years. The stalks are not over half of what they should be and as for ears they arc the exception more than the rule. So Centreville lias waked up and two tights on Saturday night indicates that there are a few Corbetts and Jeffries in our midst. And then it may be that the "Jersey lightening' imbibed may have had something to do with the rows. liBEENTOWN. James Gilpin is having a well drilled, iho Kobmaon boys are doing the job.

There is considerable talk of probable important pension legisla tion at the next session of congress. The recommendation of the Grand Army of the Republic for a sorvice pension of 111! a month for all honorably discharged soldiers of the Rebellion, who served at least three months is meeting with considerable favor in widely different sections of the country. It is urged that ad ditional to being an act of justice and generosity on the part oi the govern ment toward the survivors of the great conflict, it would have the effect of largely eliminating the mass of special pension legislation enacted by every congress. When it is considered that entire armies endured in a single campaign or a single day what no man would undertake for any amount of simple cash considera tion, it will be agreed that the nation cannot do too much toward lighten ing the closing days of the men who saved the nation. Chicago people are making money during these piping times. If they are not they are trying to. The Chicago Post says that there is a margin of some 0,500,000 between. what the drainage trustees propose to spend for immediate improve ments in the Calumet Ui.-4.rict and what Engineer Cooley says ought to be spent.

Use BUCKINGHAM'S DYE BOB VISITS THE CITY (CiMitlniH'd From First Thr.') standing collar look like a while washed fence around a Lunatic Asylum, but it dident seem to work very well, then Kittie began to cry but the proprietor wouldeiit stand for that either but simply remarked tlmt be thought a large bunch of fresh air would do us all some good so the finish found us looking like a lot of cheap guys with a couple of chopbouse soubrcttes up against it. However after several long tackles wereached the street and not knowing just what time it was thought we would ask a policeman he said he thought it was about time that we were digging out of our Sappho dream or he would give us a push in the Kisser that would make carmen look like a porous plaster that had worked overtime and immediately our lady friends, who by tliis time could not see at all, said he was no gentleman. Now, Jack old man as it was still early, about 3 a. m., we all started for the Hayniarket just to watch the people who run the place make hay. So of course we bought a couple of those things they call "night hawks" and started on our dear little trip down liroodway and 1 can tell you its all very well to ride three in a cab when your legs are strong, but when you have that Philadelphia feeling coming over you and one of those dear little peaches setting on your lap with a beautiful running tide who is trying to tell you between her breath and Madison Square how much her father is worth, simply puts the Electrical Tower in Buffalo out of business and I can tell you my boy that a doctor is sadly needed. However, after a few swings and a little on the level we were landed at the Market. Well as soon as we had all taken our places atja round table in the Balcony, Kittie of course started right in ngiin to have the "Willies" and we all told her in one breath that she must behave like a lady or the rest of the Queens who were drinking beer would think that she was not well brought up, this of course made her jump up from the table and she started to take the hurdles two and three at a time, and, of course, at the same moment the gentlemen who runs the place was after Kitty with a club as one lady said she had been insulted, and the second lost a beautiful highball which she had just paid her little 15c for and the third got a beautiful push in her sniiler, then of course all hands started in to do up our charming Kitty and her fat friend, but about that time orders were received to sneak and with the aid of a large crowd we were pushed town stairs and out into the street, so Jim and myself immediately put Dime and his lady friend in a hansom and told the driver to run for his life and a few moments later got the other stiffs, Charlie Goodboy and his girl who came from over the bridge in a second hansom, and told the man on the box to follow the first oue. Well old man the finish or that night found both couples taking in the fresh air at 59th St. and Central Park about 4.30 a. m. and swearing that the next time, they start to do the town Jim Stevens and Your Uncle Dudley will have to saw wood and remain out in the cold. Hoping this will reach you in safety and with kind remembrance to all the boys. Y'ours sincerely, Bob. A Remarkable Record Chnmborlain'8 Cough Remedy has a remarkable record. It has boon in use for over thirty years, during which time many million bottles have been sold and used. It has long boon the standard and main reliance in the treatment of croup in thousands of homos, yet during all this time no case has ever been reported to the manufacturers in which it failed to etioct a enro. Whon given as soon as the child becomes hoarse or even as soon as the oroupy oough appoars, it will prevent the attack. It is pleasant to take, many children like it.

Senator Gorman is up to his old game of trimming. He is "in favor of a conservative tariff reform." The Maryland senator is an able and wily steersman and lias threaded many a sinuous and intricate channel but his attempts to cuide his bark throturh protection and free trade beliefs in such a way as to win the confidence of Hie advocates of both policies is a little the most he has yet undertaken.
