To VoTERs. The democracy, so
called, are laboring even now in view
of getting to the polls every voter of
their party, and will cast a solid vote
for their candidates for Judges Of the
Supreme Court, Dunn and Ellis. u
They hope to elect their ticket in
the State, by quietly getting out a
full vote Of their party, expecting
the Republicans to slulmber and sleep
during their wide awake drill at the
polls. Democracy is a sly worker
before and at elections, and if Repub:-
leans hope to win they must begin
now and work till the end.
1t will be well also to see TO the
town officers that they be filed by
union men IN every case, from the
greatest to the least Reiecs all
proffered bargains and vote for only
full SETS of Republican candidates
Such will surely be the democratic
practice for their candidates

Free Love Economies.

The Wallingford community seems
to have solved the problem eff cheap
living, whatever they have. done for
morality. According to their report
the cost of living per man and woman
is only thirty eight dollars, and for
ty-fve cents for miscellaneous ex-
penses, which latter item is evidently
wasteful extravaganza, This is as
we'll as Thoreau did in his hut on
Walden pond. but whereas his ex-
pertinent only proved that one. man
can live cheaply if he dwells in a hut
for which he pays no rent, and cub
sists chiefly on beans, this Wa!iipg-

Farms Wanted.

Just now il the time to let it be
known by advertisement that land
property is Tor sale, because now is
the time OF active demand for FARMS
These times there appears no way SO
cheaply and certainly to bring ito>
gether seller and buyer, face to face,
as by advertising in the paper
most generally read. Advertise
ments should truthfully set forth Just
what buyers most desire to know
size of farm, situation, acres in Gull
ture, quality of soil. water, buildings,
schools, orchards, roads, springs,
price and terms of payment. We
have noticed that in almost every
case whore property is we'll described
the advertiser almost surely sells, at
least has bids plenty, at fair prices
To not fully describe or conceal the
price appears jocky>like and rather
vexes would be purchasers. Note
this, that the right time to advertise
is when thing is in most demand.
INJUsrTcE.-Thc editor Of the
Dodgevlle Chronicle severely CEN
sure those who stop their paper, and
then steal their information of coun>
ty matters by borrowing copies of
the Chronicle from their neighbors:-
Probably this is correct Judgment
in such cases, according to all codes

innocent Jurors can be found to con,
Vict any one. 81
WAR.-The democratic party, dur
ing the war for peace, is now going

ocratic meeting held in Manchester,

the light of burning cities, and with
blood flowing in rills, etc.
We guess there's no need of being
scared. a rattle of the tin draft box
would populate Canada with demo
Gratis in fortyseight hours, and things
would then settle.
ssy- Reader, did you ever hear a
democratic speaker dcnounce the
sothern legislatures for secession, de-
nounce the Congress or the President
Of the CoLfederacy, denounce the
rebel army or It's leaders denoance
the atrocities Of Liberty or Ander>
sonville, denounce any Of the fiendish
acts Of those who conspired with the
malignity of Devils TO overthrow the
pillars Of the Republic, you never did,
and why? because they never had a
feeling ID their souls that did not
beat in sympathy with the rebel
cause.
