Sit, down and write the letter
You put oil day by day.
Don’t wait until her tired steps
Beach heaven's pearly gate— *

Before it is too Into.
If you’ve a tender message,
Or a loving \voi$ to say,
Don’t wjiit till you forget it,
But whisper it today,
Who kmyys .wpat bitter memories
May haynt you if your wait?
So make yoyr loved ones happy
Before it is too late.
We live but in the present,
The future is unknown—
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is all our own.

For these some loved ones wait—

Wednesday, April 20th, ,th,e
j voters of the 9th congressional
district will nopiiuate a capdjdate
[ foy congress. In the discharge of
.tpis duty \ve should not seek to
| gratify the personal ambition of
j any candidate for the nomination,
i Any one in the district has a right
,to offer himself as a candidate
apd ask the support of the people
of tlie district, but in casting our
ballots wo should not be actuated
by personal friendship or person
al preference, but should vote for
some one, who, in our judgment is
capable of rendering tbo best ser-
j yiee to bis .constituency. We are
' pot voting simply to confer an
honor on the applicant or to
gratify hie personal ambition, but
to select some one to act as our
servant. Indeed a congressman
after all is only a servant of the
people he represents. Taking in -
to consideration therefore tho ca
pacity of the applicants to render
the best service to our people we
believe the circumstances warrant
bhe ye-elccRop of Mr. Tate. His
experience cohering p period of
jtwely.e yeare will bo of great ser
vice jto him, if he is returned. If
it is true that experiep.ee is helpful
j to the physician, the lawyer, the
merchant and the farmer, and ins
deed every other calling in life,
