Welch, wh is aeelifngr the republican nomination for county for. sideration of the voters lies in the fact that he has served for niany years as an employe in the county assessor's office, being a veteran in valuation work. His campaign slo gan is, "Long experience in the as sessor's office a sure guarantee of efficient service." Service Practically Continuon. Mr. Welch entered the assessor's offiee as a deputy on March 1 1S99. Since that time he has served there continuously, except for six months in the county auditor's office to fill an unexpired term and for the period demanded by national guard duties and the late war. He has held ap pointments under Assessors Greenleaf, McDonell. Sigler and Heed. The year 1881 is the date when Mr. .Welch became a resident of Oregon, having come west that year with his parents from Grundy county, Illinois, where lie was born in 1870.

Military Record Intensive. After his resignation from the bat tery he was appointed by the late Governor Withycombe as major in the inspector-general's department, and "was called into active service during the Mexican border trouble. When this coxinlry entered the war. Major "Welch tendered his services, although lie was three years past the age limit of 45. He was appointed captain of field artillery and served at Camp Jackson and Camp Taylor. Later he was made a major and was in com mand of a regiment awaiting orders overseas when the armistice was signed. Since his return home he has resumed his connection with the na tional guard as major in the inspector-general's department. The planks in his platform call for the "practice of the fullest economy consistent with efficient service," and 'management of the office and its responsibilities so as to merit the confidence and esteem of the public."

Seattle, Wash. "For several years I had suffered from stomach trouble. My appetite was poor and I could not eat a single thing without suffering from it after ward. After every meal my food would sour and ferment, causing me to bloat up with gas, have a heavy, full feeling and intense pains in the pit of my stomach. There was always a bad taste in my mouth. I had severe headaches, and at times became so dizzy I had to grab hold of something or sit down to keep from falling. My kidneys worried me a great deal, and there were always intense pains in the small of my back. Also every winter, for I don't know how long. I had rheumatism in my arms and shoulders so bad I had great difficulty in doing my work. I could never get a good night's sleep, and always felt tired and wornout. "I got started on Tanlac while liv ing in Polo, Mo., as my folks were taking it and think there is nothing in the world like it, and now I think just as they do. I began picking up right away, and when 1 moved to Se attle I kept taking it until I had taken six bottles in all, and today I can truthfully say I feel as well as I ever did in my life. I have a fine appetite, eat just anything I want and never have a particle of trouble afterward. I never have a headache or get dizzy any more, and the rheumatism has left me entirely, going through the past winter for the first time in years without having the slightest sign of it. I sleep well and that tired, worn out feeling is all gone. In fact, I am a well man in every respect. After what Tanlac has done for me 1 can not say enough for.it." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Store Adv. BAPTISTS AT REDMOND inth Annual Conference of Des chutes Association Opens. REDMOND, Or.. May 1 2 (Special.)
