new Democrat paper at Miami.
Fight it out boys—we've had

Miami is worked up over the
prospects of an intcrurban line

good thing for Miami, and again
it might not. However they're
welcome to it as far as the rest
of the county is concerned.

a reasonable figure, will install
a new plant altogether.

This issue of the News-Herald
contains the announcement of
T. J. Lewis, as a candidate for
Sheriff on the Democratic ticket.
Mr. Lewis is the present Chief
of Police at Miami, and has held
that position at various intervals
for the past ten or twelve yeaas.
He is a very popular man and
ought to make a good runner.
The little grape vine message
that the Bernice Booster con-
tained last week relative to the
abandoming of the proposed ex-
tention of the railroad from
Grove to Copeland, was all hot
air, and the way the Grove
papers poured it into the Boost-
er was o fright. We were satis-
fied there was nothing to it, but
left it for the News and Sun to
sot the matter right.
Sheriff George Gibson was
over from Miami, the latter part
of last week, and paid his re
spects to the News-Herald. He
also informed us that his hat
was in the ring for the office of
Sheriff again, and authorized us
to carry his announcement.
George is no stranger to the
people of Ottawa county, neither
are his methods of conducting
the nffnirs of the office. He is
running upon his record that he
has made, and if that is in har
mony with your way of thinking,
you will of course give him your
support. He solicits the support
of all Republican voters in the
August primary,
The Sheep Kanch Hollow cor-
respondent to the Seneca News
Dispatch gets off this one on an
Ai kansas Justice, who was also
a preacher, a Notary public and
Mayor of his town. A xoung
couple had come to him to get
'hitched up'' and the old timer
began, but got his wires crossed
a little, and this is the way the
ceremonv was said: "Do each
ol you solemnly swear? fto, bv j
gosh that is wrong. One dav, '
after date we promise to pay,
no, by hen that is not right,
and know all these men by these
presents. No, that won't do,

that's right, and the boy stood

authority I hold in my left hand
