Whose welfare exctes so much solicitude in the
Democratic breast during campaigns, conceiv-
ing their degradation by the Republican party,

gro, had better call Judge Merrick to account for
degrading them and himself by canvassing the
lower counties of his district in the keeping of
Waters, the president Of the colored Democratic
Club of Baltimore
Honest Democrats and Conservatives, we say
you are being grossly imposed upon by these I'M
principled politicians. Judge Merrick is the
" White-Man-Party candidate in Baltimore
county, but when he gets down in those parts of
his district where it suits him better 10 take off
has hat to the-colored voters, he is found soliciting
their votes in company with and under the in
struction of the black man Waters. Judge Mer-
rick has perfect right to solicit colored votes,
but he has no right to deceive you by this sort
of trick. You will not be degraded any more
by the votes of colored men in Baltimore county
than you will by colored votes in St. Mary's,
Prince Georges or Charles counties. Ifyou sup
port Judge Merrick upon the ground that he is
a White mans candidate, he is deceiving you
and is utterly unworthy of your confidence. If
it is degradation to vote the same ticket that a
utmost in the lower counties 20 degrade every
white man in his district that casts vote for
him.

GET LEATHER BITs.-One of the cruelest thing:
done to dumb beasts is putting hard frozen iron
bits into horses mouth. For every time living
flesh touches metal much below the freezing
point the latter extracts the heat from the former
and freezes it. Thus horses mouth becomes
frozen by the cold iron put into it each time
causing these freezings to get deeper and deeper,
to end at last in extensive liberation. With such
a sore mouth the poor horse refuses TO eat and
pines away, which calls the horse doctor in
They call it bots, CHAMBERS, horse-a, etc., and &c
to examining down poisonous drugs, in doses !
and the next you know of the poor abused
creature, he is trotted off to be food for fish OF
the crows. Many valuable horse has been
"mysteriously" lost in just that way.
Thinking and humane people avoid this by frs
warming the bits but this is much trouble, and
sometimes impossible, as in night work, like
staging and physicians work. Now all this
trouble and loss are entirely avoided, as we have
found on large trial, by getting the harness
makers to get leather bits for winter use, so made
that no metal substance can touch the fesh.-
They are durable and cost only half dollar
Don't fail to try it.

ONO ELECTION. Democrats are making
such hurrah over the returns of the Ohio cleo
ton that one who had not Investigated the facts
and seen the figures, might conclude that the
Democracy had made great gains and swept the
State. Let US look at the matter. Gov Hays
majority last year was 1913 over the distin-
guished Democrat George H. Pendleton. This
year Sherwood, Secretary of State, has major
ity of 16, 800 over the Democratic candidate, and
Is, $50 over both Democratic and Independent
candidate. While there were 35, s97 fewer votes
cast this year than last.
In the Congressional delegation numerically
there is no change-the Democrats having but
five members. This too upon the score that
Schenck's district will not be contested, where
GOO Union soldiers at the soldiers home were not
allowed to vote their votes being refused by the
Judges Yet the Journal of this town says, thai
the Democrats have gained two Congressman in
Ohio We think the editor has injured his eyes
looking for Democratic majorities, and conse.
quently is entitled to the pardon of his subscri
bers for this political error.

How TO GRAFT GRAPE VNEs.-A correspondent
to Ashville, New York, Nea0S and Farmer says
that the proper way to graft grape vines is to
cut the scions between the first of December and
the last of January and pack away in box,
bedded in wet sand, and keep them in cellar
until the leaves of the vines to be grated are
half grown, then dig down below the collar, or
the point where the roots radiate, and search for
the largest and most thrifty, cutting then loose
from the collar, and with pegs bringing them to
a horizontal position.
Cut off the end smoothly and graft just as you
would an apple tree, leaving at least two buds or
eyes, and then place large hill around it, reach
ing to the top of the graft. covering the upper
buds an inch with loose dirt, free from clods,
and if the graft fails to grow, it is because the
scions had lost their vitality before the work was
done. If the roots are thrifty and in rich ground
the vines will grow from eight to sixteen feet in
length the first year, and will grow crop of
grapes the second year.

Form THE LME.-Republicans, eternal vigi-
lance is the price of liberty" The day of battle
is at hand. Let every true man buckle on the
armor and enter the lists for the fight The
apathy, the Indifferent don tcare spirit that has
pervaded the ranks of the Republican party has
resulted in many voters remaining at home on
election day. entirely regardless Of the consequent
ces of the contest. This has not been altogether
strange when we consider the many disadvan-
tages under which the grand old party has labor
ed. In days gone by, when its proud escutcheon
was in danger, when the glorious principles it
has triumphantly established in spite of Demo
cratic treason and opposition were unsettled and
in doubt, when it was wrestling manfully with
gigantic wicked rebellion to save the Republic
from foul destruction at its hands, you rallied
courageously around her standard, gave her your
aid, your counsel, your encouragement and your
vote. Then at every fresh start given by the
arrogant hand of Democratic treason to the Re-
public, at every new danger whose fitful glare
flashed across the political horizon, you rushed to
the rescue with the raliying cry of ''come on
boys let us try them once more"
On Tuesday next your services are needed to
preserve in tact what your courage, your counsel
and your vote have so nobly won by waiting the
party OF progressive ideas, equal justice and a
broad civilization TO magnificent victories. We
have new recruits to aid US. Rally again and

EARLY CALvEs-A correspondent of the Coun-
try Gentleman says: "There is good deal more
depending on an early start than is generally
supposed yet every farmer who has raised stock
must be aware of the advantages attached to a
calf or colt born in March or April, over one
not coming into existence till June. The early
young animals become strong against their first
winter, and 60 through the cold spells without
the check those that are younger or tender re-
ceive, and having gained good clear start, they
will never lose it, and it is the same with lambs,
pigs and young poultry How attentive to this
matter should those be who possess highly bred
Stock for if it is worth consideration with good
common stock, it must be of immense importance
to those who breed animals coming TO be worth
as many thousand as the average grades are
hundreds. In England the winters are very
much mider than in he Northern States yet
this is seriously studied with every variety of live
stock, for the first winter is the most critical
period of agricultural animals existence, and
when the young stock is brought to grass at
about fourteen months old, plump and fat as they
can be- to be perfectly healthy and growing, there
is an end to all anxiety concerning them"

Democratic Iestjna OaIy.

The following invaluable testimony was given
by one of the leading Democratic papers CT the
nation, the New York Herald about the first of
August last We introduce this testimony that
Democrats may not say that what we say about
Republican retrenchment, the payment of the
public debt &C., comes all from Republican
source. Democrats cannot disregard the testi-
mony of their own witness. fully corroborates
our statements of the economy and excellent
financial management of our resources under
Republican Administration. 1t appeared in the
Herald when President Grant had been in office
Just eighteen months.
READ 1T DEMOCRATS,
and Judge for yourselves. 1t is as follows
zone hundred and fifty six millions reduction of the
debt on greatly diminished taxation list, and over
one hundred millions reserved fund in the Treasu
ry is an excellent record for Gen. Grants admnistra
ton and such facts make the strongest platform of all
platforms for the party in power In Short the Repub
can party, which was given new lease of power in
the election of Gen. Grant, can only maintain its as
cendancy upon the safe sound, honest and solid plat
form of Grants Observation-Disclosures, retrenchment,
reform the development Of resources the reduction
of our taxes and the redemption of our debt While
the ship of state is thus smoothly sailing before the
wind the captain may be excused in little rest and
as the poet has it
Looking out on the Atlantic,
From his cottage by the sea.
When an Administration conducts its affairs
so judiciously as to wiring such an encomum
from the pen of those opposed to it in politics.
there is no just reason why every honest we'll
wsher of his country could not give it his
hearty endorsement. This Democratic testi-
mony establishes beyond doubt all that is claim
ed for the Administration upon its excellent
commendable management of the finances of the
nation. Such strokes of energy, economy, re-
trenchment and reform in all the ramifcations of
the civil service of the Republic has never been
equaled in the annals of fnanciering. "While
the ship of State is thus smoothly sailing before
the wind' let US keep the pilots who steer her
so glorious, at the helm as long as they continue
faithful.
