There is .one office in every
county that seldom excites a con-
test but which nevertheless is an
important one, and that is chair-
man of the county Democratic
executive committee. The Ava-
lanche this week has the an-
nouncement of Mr. Geo. W.
Glasgow, who aspires to fill this
office. Owing to the fact that
Mr. Glasgow has been a life long
Democrat and also having served
four years in the Confederate
army, he is peculiarly fitted to
ask for the above office and as to
his ability, no man could question
this point. Mr. Glasgow is a
property owning citizen of Brew-
ster county and his interests are
in every way identified with the
interests, of the people of this
counfy. If elected he will make
a capable public servant.

It being so near “All Fools”
day, some of the young were still
on mischief bent, and several
times during the evening while
walking across the parlor young
men displayed large signs that
had been pinned on them, read-
ing something like “I’m a single
man and I want to get married.”
A loud laugh at their expense fol-
