Affairs about the county court
house have resumed their normal ac
tivity now that the election is a thing
of the past and all those present in
cumbents who are candidates for re-
election have forgotten in a measure
the strenuous times incident to the
campaign.
Of course there are a few sore
spots among the court house contin-
gent some who were candidates for
re-election failed to land but they
are resigned to the will of the voters
and will devote the remainder of
their time in office paving the way
for their successors.
There is bome whisper that the re-
publican party of this county will
make a vigorous campaign to defeat
some of the regular nominees of the
democratic party there is another
faction calling themselves "indepen-
dents" who have eyes on certain jobs
now held by democrats that they be-
lieve they can oust rrom office but
In view of the fact that Carter county
has always been overwhelmingly
democratic the combined efforts of
the republicans socialist and inde-
pendents will cut but little figure in
the general election and there is not
the shadow of a doubt but what every
one of the regular nominees of the
democratic primary will be elected in
November.
It will not be long after the gen-
eral election before the people of the
city will be called upon to make their
choice of candidates for city officials
who will be elected In April.
An entire ticket will have to be
namednd while it Is understood
that most of the present incum-
bents will be candidates for re-election
it is equally as certain that they
will all have opposition and the race
promises to be a speedy affair.
... There are not less than four avow-
ed candidates In the field at this time
for the mayor's job with the
chances good that several others
will have their lids in the ring before
the time for the primary rolls around.
For commissioners the present board
will have at least one opponent each
that is those commissioners on the
present board who have not their
eye on the mayor's ;ob and this
number too may be added to in each
ward before election day.
The citizens are going to see a
spirited sprint for the office of chief
of police as several men already on
the force are going to make the race
while it is practically certain tlint the
assistant chief at present will be the
most dangerous contender to the as-
pirations of the other tentative can-
didates. Altogether politics will con-
tinue to enliven affairs in the city for
several week3 to come.
A Doctor's Remedy for Couflhs.
s a c.ire for coughs and coUls Dr.
Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey combines these
remedies in just the right proportion

the value of this splendid cough med-
icine. Dr. Bell's Plne-Tar-Homy
soothes the irritation stops your
cough kills the cold germs and does
you a world of good. A 25c. bottle will
more than convince you it will stop
your cough. At druggists.

es was being counted In New York

roads and the workmen.
Wilson Confers With Chambers.
William L. Chambers commissioii'T
of the board of mediation and concil-
iation was In communication with
President Wilson during the day
though board officials pointed out that
nothing of a formal character could
be done until the railroad managers
and representatives of tho employes
resumed negatiations next week.
A call was Issued for a meeting
tomorrow morning of the senate com-
merce committee to decide whether
hearings will be held on Chairman
Newland's resolution proposing an In-
vestigation by the interstate com-
merce commission of hours of labor
on railways and urging the employers
and employes to postpone a settlement
of their differences until r re-
port can be made. Hours of labor
constitute one of the chief causes of
the threatened strike.
Chamber Urges Action.
The Chamber of Commeico of the
United States which yesterday appeal-
ed to President Wilson for federal
Intervention to prevent a srtilU' !s
urging action on the resolution. The
chamber is considering call'ng a con-
ference of representatives of commer-
cial organizations to impress on con.
gress the necessity of taking some im-
mediate step.
If all other steps fail to avert a
strike it is prob-iblo President Wilson
will make a personal appeal to the
railroad managers and the employes
urging them to effect a settlement in
the interest of the public. The ques-
tion may be discussed at tomorrow's
cabinet meeting.
Joint Committee Organizes.

gress to investigate the general rail-
road situation Including the advisa-
bility of government ownership or-

Seventy Per Cent Counted.
Seventy per cent of the ballots cast
by the railroad employes In the Uni-
ted States in the vote on a general
strike had been counted by the spec-
ial board of tellers In New York City
this afternoon. Timothy Shea as-
sistant president of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Fremen and Kngine-
men. in charge of the work declared
of these 300000 almost all favored
a strike.
The count will not be completed
Mr. Shea said until Monday next
owing to the fact that the vote chair-
men of tho western railroads are not
expected to arrive here with the west-
ern ballots until Saturday. The bal-
lots counted to date are from the
eastern and southern railroads. The
vote from these districts is virtually
complete. If the strike vote is con-
cluded by Monday night Mr. Shea
said the leaders of the railroad broth-
erhoods reinforced by the authority
of the strike vote will resume nego-
tiations with the railroad managers
on Tuesday.
Just the Thing for Diarrhoea.
"About two years ago I had a se-
vere attack of diarrhoea which lasted
over a week." writes W. C. Jones Bu-
ford N. D. "I became so weak that I
could not stand upright. A druggist
recommended Chamberlain's Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Tho
first dose relieved me and within two
days 1 was as well as ever." Many
druggists recommend this remedy be-
cause they know that it U reliable.
Obtainable everywhere.

WAR HEROINES
Many Women Decorated for Bravery
While Fighting With Men.
Seldom in the world's history does
one find instances of women being
decorated for valor on the battlefield
for the simple reason that opportun-
ity for deeds which w'ould earn for
them the Victoria Cross are very few.
Nevertheless instances can be found
and nowhere more than In France
where the heroic woman has little
to complain of as rpgards public rec-
ognition of her services.
Since Napoleon founded the Cross
of the Legion of Honor on May 19
1802 probably a score or more women
have been decorated for personal
bravery In warfare but unfortunately
only one or two of their names have
been preserved as the Palace of the
Legion d'Honneur was burned down
during the Commune and all the rec-
' ords destroyed.
! Napoleon himself decorated at least
seven women for valor. The chief
of these was Anne Biget (Soeur Mar-
the) who was a sister of mercy and
earned the cross of the Legion of
j Honor for her devotion to the sick
and wounded In the care of whom she
risked her lire constantly.
I The other women on whom Napo-
leon bestowed the cross were discl-
' pies of Joan of Arc who shared the
! perils and hardships of their menfolk
enlisting and fighting gallantly.
Another woman earned the decora-
tion for valor when France was fight
ing Germany in 1870. Mile. Dodu
I a postmistress at Pithvlers a village
which had fallen into the hands of the
j Invaders destroyed a message which
she had neen ordered to transmit.
For this she was court-martialed by
the Germans and condemned to death.
On the arrival of Prince Frederick
however she was released the prince
himself complimenting her on her su-
perb courage.
