ANNOUNCEMENT.
As stated in these columlas last week
on October let I became the owner and
pubhsher of the Cl~SCV.NT. As the end
of my second term as County Clerk and
Recorder of Saguache county was draw.
lag near, and being dmirous of continu-
ing my residence in tha town where my
home im located, among the people who
have been my Imoial and business aseo.
ciatae for the past fourteen years, and
feeling that having held public off]co
would not ineapaciate me from again
conducting a private buainms, I began
looking around for some occupation to
take up when I leave the court house in
January next. Now I find myself en-i
gaffed moner than I expected, and I con-
sider myself fortunate in being able to
become the owner and proprietor of the
buainmm of my choice. Although I have
not been engaged in the newspaper bust-
nine for the past sixteen yearn, yet it ht
a businw that I learned and followed
for several years in my younger days,
and one that ia hardly forgotten after
once well learned. I have faith in the
enterpri~ and in my ability to succor-
fully conduct it.
In becoming the publisher of the
CztmcZnT I do so with a full knowledge
that I will need to exert my b~t efforts
to keep the paper up to the high stand-
ard it has attained among the country
nawapapem of the state under the very
able management of my predecessor, Mr.
O. D. Bryan, who is both a good printer
and an experienced newspaper man. But
like many others I "know how a newl-
paper abould be run."
The policy of the paper will not be
materially changed, for the preeant at
latmt. It will continue to be Republican
in polities, but its chief aim will be, first
--to provide an income for its publisher
and throe connected with the paper am
workare, and to give the news of the
town and county. And, mocond--to ad-
vance in avery way potable all public
and private enterprimm that will be of
benefit to the town, county or state. We
have under consideration plans for ira-i
proving the paper, which we trust when i
put into effect, will be pleasing and i
profitable to both the publisher and the
pstronm of the paper. We will try to run
a newspaper that will be of some lntermt
to every rmidant of the county, and we
hope, in tiros, to reach the majority of
t~e homm, and be read by a majorty of
the I~ople of the county.
Mr. U. G. Boekwali will be connected
with the paper am auiltant, and he will
have charge of the advertising, jobbing
and subscription departments. We trust
the paper wild continue to receive in all
its departments the very liberal patro-
nag• it hem been given in the past. We
will endeavor to give satisfaction to all
our petrona

Will Net !~ a Candidate.
I whth to announce to my friends that
after mature deliberation I have decided
not to be a candidate for any off]c, this
fall. T.M. Lyons.

ginning October 28.
Many oounl~y conventions have already
been held throughout the state, and
from the reports it is plain to be seen
that the Republicans are harmonious
and confident. The Democrats divided
in all thln~ except "no fusion," and the
Populult8 are--wall, it appears that they
are so Joar~ there are hardly enough to
hold • convention or to fill the oflto~.

POLITICAL OUTLOOK.
As Viewed By One On The 0utside---
Some Probable Candidates--
Two, or Three, Tickets?
Matters politically appear to be much
quieter than they generally are at this
~ason of the year. The conventions i
have been sailed for a later date, and
the campaign will necessarily be short.
The Republicans are not saying much,
but they appear to carry an air of cent.
dance. They are probably wondering
what the other partl~ are going to do
regarding fusion.
The Democratic and Populist leaders
mutt have had some scheme in view
when they called their conventions for
the same day, but we will probably not
I know what it is until after the convan.
ties. When approached regarding their
plansthey do not know what will be
~ done, and their answers give one the ira.
presmon that they are "all at sea."
Of course several names of prosper-
tive candidates have been mentioned
among all parties, but not many of them
will have a "walk.away" in the conven.
tachs.
For County Judge, O. D. Bryan, the
present incumbent, seems to be the only
candidate for the nomination on the Re-
publican ticket, and no opposing candi-
date has as yet appeared in the other
parties.
The present County Clerk, Lee Fair-
banks, will not be a can~ildate before the
convention for the third term, as he
stated during the last campaign and
many times since. The candidates men-
atoned for the Republican nomination
are Dallas Stubbs, Of Ssguaebe, and
John W. Cook, of Crestone. Robert
Buckley, of the 41 country, it is said,
would like the nomination on the Demo-
cratic ticket, and there appears to be r,o
caLdidate for the position on the Popu-
list ticket.
It is generally conceded that Samuel
Jewell, the present iucambent, will re-
calve the nomination for Treasurer in
the Republican convention without op-
i position. Several names have been men-
tioned for the position in the other par-
ties, but at present it looks as though
they will have hard work to get a can-
didat~ to make the race.
For Sheriff, Eugene Williams, the
present ineumbenl, will wobably be
nominated by the Republicans without
opposition. "Dick" Mooney, of Cres-
tone, and Robert Monteith, of Lower Sa-
guache, will be candidates before the
conventions to be held on the 12th.
T, M. Alexander, the present Assessor
and E. H~ Underhill, of Cr~stone, will
try for the nomination for that office in
the Republican convention. T. M. Lyons
is mentioned a~ a candidate in the Popu-
let convention.
County Superiutendeut J. I. Palmer
will probably be nominated for a second
term, and W. E. Gardner, of Bonanza
and Wm. What•an, of Russell Springs,
viii be candidates before the Republi-
can convention for that office.
For Commissioner from Distriut No. 2
John Smith, of Veteran, is a Republican
candidate, and J. D. Hess, of Locket•, is
mentioned as a candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket.
The off]cos of Caroaor aud Surveyor
are not being mentioned, probaby for the
reason that they pay so small a salary.
Aa to whether there will be three
tickets in the field, or but two, we will
not hazard a guess at the present time.

COURT HOUSE ITEMS.
The county judge is doing a rushing
buaineu these days.
John I. Palmer is assisting in the coun-
ty treasurer's office this week.
The county clerk is now dividing his
time between the court house and the
[ CR2eCENT office.
The October term of the District Court
will begin on the 4th Monday, the 28th.
Sheriff Williams is summoning jurors
for the October term of the District
Court.
The county clerk's o~ce has issued
two marriage licenses during the past
week. Lute Kellogg to Clarabell Medley
Bryant, and James B. Fuller•on to Stella
O'Brien.
The commissioners as a county board
of equalization are going over the as-
sessment turned in by Assessor Alexan-
der. It is probable that no material
chang~ will be made unless it may be in
raising the valuation on land which hM
• very good water right and in lowering !
other and poorer land ~, correspond.
The registration books for the fall
election will be mailed to the several
boards of registry throughout the coun-
ty the first of next week.

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
"Something New Under The Sun."
All Doutors have tried to cure CA-
TARRH by the use of powders, acid gas-
es, inhalers and drugs in paste form,
Their powders dry up the muouous mem-
branes causing them to crack open and
bleed. The powerful acids used in the
inhalers have eat•rely eaten away the
same membranes that their makers have
aimed to cure while pastes and oint-
ments cannot reach the disease. An
old and experienced praotitioner
who has for many years made a close
study and specialty of the treatment of
CATARRH, has at last perfected a
I treatment which when faithfully used,
i ant only relieves at once but permanently
cures OAI'ARH by removing the cause,
stopping discharges and curing all in-
flammation. It is the only remedy known
to science that actually reaches the af-
flicted parts. This wonder[u[ remedy is
known as "Snufflels",the Gaaranteed Ca-
tarrh Cure and is sold at the extremely
low price of one dollar, each package
containing internal and external medi-
cine suflic!ent for a full month's treat-
ment and everything necessary to its per-
fect use.
"Snuffles" is the only perfect catarrh
cure ever made and is now recognized aa
the only safe and positive cure for that
annoying and disgusting disease. It cures
all Inflammation quickly and perma-
nently and is also wonderfully quick to
relieve hay fever or cold in the head.
0atarrh, when ne~:leeted often leads to
consumption Snuffles will ~avo you if you
use it at ouce. It is no ordinary remedy,
but a complete tr,.atment which ie posi-
tively guaranteed to cure catarrh in any
form or stage if used according to thedi-
root•one which accompany each package.
Don't delay but se~d for it at once, aud
write full particulars as to your condi-
t/one, and you will reee~vo special ad-
vice from the discoverer of this wonder-
full remedy regarding your case without
cost to you beyond the regular price of
Snuffles the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure.
