REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES.

FOR SHERIFF.

Frank Furry, of Center town-ship, is a candidate for Sheriff of Hancock ounty. subject to the decision of the Republican Nominating Convention to be hereafter held.

Richard M. Pauley, of Jackson township, is a candidate for sheriff of Hancock County, subject to the decis, on of the Republican nomina-t-ihg convention to be held hereafter. Your Bupport is earnestly solicited.

The interest in the commercial club should not lag. It should grow and increase in force. The time seems to be especially promising for industrial activity. Greenfield should, and could if she would, reap benefits from the existing conditions. A little help from each citizen in co-operation with every other citizen would astonish us with the aggregate results.

A merchant who advertises may not always see the immediate effects of his advertising, but in most cases he will, and in all cases he will be benefitted. The merchant who sells more goods than his competitor can sell them cheaper than his competitor. It is not the big profits so much which makes money for the merchant as the many profits. Let the merchant fill his store with custome -s, each will contribute a little to his profits, and the aggregate makes the merchant a good business. But the effects of a .store crowded with customers is good for business. It works like endless chain. The best and cheapest way to get the attention of customers is to advertise in a paper of good circulation covering the territory in which the store is located. This paper is a good advertising medium for Greenfield business men.
