From State Line Tribune.
Editor A. C. Elliott of the Here-
ford Brand, candidate for representa-
tive of the 123rd District, has an-
nounced the platform on which he is
making the race, which sounds
mighty good to us, and is as follows:
A progressive policy in matters of
State and constructive legislation in
matters of business.
The election of United States
Senators by the direct vote of the
people.
The reform of the judiciary system
and the correction of abuses in court
practice.
Making the "local option" laws
more effective and finally a constitu-
tional prohibition amendment.
A square deal for the Panhandle
and South Plains.
If there is a class of people any
more deserving of the support of the
populace than the long sufferiog,
hard working editor, we would liltr>
for you to trot them around. At
best they never get more than is
coming to them, and if they are the
right kind of stuff, (and they usually
are), the people should rally to their
support, and in this way, in a meas-
ure, repay them for all the good
(and bad) things they had the nerve
to say about you and the country in
which you live. You could not do
more with less effort.
Mr. Elliott is a gentleman, a busi-
ness man and a scholar, and is famil-
iar with the needs of the 12.3rd Dis-
trict, and if honored with the office
to which be aspires the people whom
he will represent will never have
cause to regret that they gave him
their support.
Messrs. Warren and Wilson, re-
presenting the Rumley Oil-Pull En-
gines, were here last week demon-
strating the new tractor put out by
the Rumley people. The engine
was demonstrated on the Evants farm
two miles north of town, and sold to
A. F. Wood, who is putting 600
acres of land on the place to millet,
kaffir and maixe.
CALOMEL IS DANGEROUS
Is a Powerful Chemical Made From
Mercury—-People Should Be,
Careful.
The only sure way to avoid the
danger of calomel is to take no
calomel.
Dodson's Liver-Tone, a vegetable
liquid of pleasant taste, more than
takes its place. Where calomel
shakes you up and shocks your liver,
Dodson's Liver-Tone, mild but ef-
fective, builds up and strengthens.
It "livens up the liver."
It may be taken without any re-
striction of diet or habits. You can
give it to your children with fine
results.
Get a bottle at Betts-Clark's drug
store and if it doesn't do all that you
think it ought—if it doesn't make
bilious spells mere trifles—if it
doesn't "liven up your liver," your
money will be waiting for you.
T. B. Gallaher, traveling freight
and passenger agent for the Peoos
Valley Lines, spent Monday in
Hereford in the interest of his de-
partment. Mr. Gallaher is an af-
fable business man and makes friends

on the baseball and football teams
in college and is "making good" in
his present position which he has
held since leaving school.
