As Miss Lillian Pott is a young Miss who has not begun to think of beaux; and as she did net attend the May Meeting, the whole report was false and she doesn't have a most favorable opinion of any one who would send items of that kind for publication.

W. Stuoup, Yeagerstown, Pa. Looked Like A Hi Fire. Last Mondaj', as the morning train pulled into Mercersburg station, great excitement was caused by great clouds of smoke pouring out of all the windows and doors of one of the cars.

Next Saturday the Democrats of this couuty will moot at their respective polling places and select from the candidates announced, men whoso names shall go on the Democratic ticket to bo voted for next November. The Primary is tho most impor-taut election of the whole year. It is here that an opportunity is given to select the most capable men available It is the duty of every voter to turn outathis party's primary. It is too late to correct mistakes after the ticket is mado up. For the benefit of the readers of the News, we give below a sample ticket.

Do not put an at tho right of tho name you wish to vote, but scratch out with a pencil the names of those you don't waut to vote. The scheme of allowing every voter iu any political party to have a voice in the election of the men who shall be candidates on his ticket is in accojrd with tho prin ciples of our government, and as tho interests of every citi.ten are' more or less directly affected by the character and capability of the men who shall fillour behooves every voter to go to the primary election aud assist iu selecting from the material at hand the men who are most capable for the discharge of the duties of the office sought. Men who will cast their vote contrary to this standard who will allow themselves to be influ-. enced by selfish motives at once forfeit their right to citizenship iu the sight of all honest meu and become a dangerous element in preserving the safeguards of our public institutions. Let the people be honest.
