A license may be had by a resident of the state on application to the game commissioner, without cost ;by a nonresident of the state upon application to the county clerk upon payment of (26.60. In this district licenses may be scoured through the deputy game commissioner. Commissioner W. T. Smith reoently stated that all those who had secured licenses and had lost them could secure a duplicate by making an affidavit before a notary public pand ay lug a fee of twenty-five oents for reissuing the permit.

There’s no other, If* natures wonder, a warning poultloe to the heart of mankind. Suoh is Hooky Mountain Tea. 36a. B. 9. Fendlg.

A Loyal Republican’s Opinion. A Newton oounty Republican, writing to the Goodland Herald says: “It is now less than a month of the time designated by law for holding the usual November election, and it seems tome that the Republicans of this county should become interested. With very few exceptions, there is no oause to anticipate a falling off of the usual majority in flavor of every Republican candidate. It is a regretable fact, however, that, influenced by selfish and unflair motives, there is an attempt on the part ofa few to carry a part of the Republican votes in the interests of Democratic candidates. The attempt will prove a signal failure. Every candidate on the Republican tioket will be eleoted. But the Republicans of this oounty andjudiolal district have something more to consider than the bare election of its candidates; It has a time-honored history of being consistent, honest and of exerolsing sound political Judgment, and the party leaders as in past have been singularly free from using their influence in support of candidates of an opposing tioket. lam sorry to say that this year is a notable exception to this rule. One paper, at least, once believed to be using its undivided influence in the interest of the party, has broken *the honored reoord of that Journal in its support of candidates on the Democratic tioket, while the chairman of the oounty central oommlttee will enjoy the distinction of being the only Republican honored with thatoffloe who has used his position and influence for the defeat ofa part of the tioket and for the election of two Democrats to high and Important offloes.

“Last week the Enterprise went to the expense of furnishing its readers with a cartoon or oarioature, evidently intended to greatly influence publio opinion, in which Mr. Hanley, the Republican candidate for Judge, was made the central figure. The picture could not fail to reflect great credit to the genius and imagination of a newly enlisted Democrat, and to a member of that party, not expecting too much, it would doubtless seem real funny. The editor, no doubt, oould win additional laurels from his Democratic admirers if in his next picture he would embellsh the editorial page of his paper with the emblem of the party, the Democratic rooster, and I suggest that he have his artist place by its side, hat in hand, the picture of our humble, politically helpless chairman regretfully saluting that historlo bird to avoid the penalty that would follow a hasty and foolish promise made earlier in the champaign. Let it be understood that the Republicans of this county realize that, under the circumstances, outside of Kentland, no Republican would receive the endorsement of that reoreant paper. And it may be added that it is not difficult, after a careful study, to understand the, source of this influence. It is entirely devoid of patriotism or party pride. It is an abortive attempt ofa few once trusted advisors to mislead Republicans. Their acts of perfidy are too gauzy, however, to deceive the rank and file of the Republicans. Mr. Hanley will be eleoted by more than the usual majority, if for no better reason than to resent the insinuation that the Republicans are disloyal. There is not a precinct in the county whose Republican voters are willing to rest under the shadows of unfaithfhlness to its party’s interests, which might be inferred if we aoeept as true the statements of the Enterprise. “If the Enterprise or any admiring Republicans choose to support a Democrat for office they have a perfect right, under the law, to do so, but it is neither courteous nor true for them to represent that their wishes embody the sentiment of Republicans of this county. “Mr. Hanley is fully competent for the office of Judge. He is entirely satisfactory to the Republicans of his oounty and of a large majority of the Republicans of Newton oounty. He will be eleoted.’' Stevens’ garments are the lowest for same qualities.
