1t is as follows:
For sI,criG Thomas J. yanderslice, Farmers

For Treasurer, Robert Tracy had no opposition.
For County Clerk, Charles RapPelye, Iule-

For Register of Deeds, Albert Hazeu, Farmers,
is elected.
For County Surveyor, Henry Wilson, Republi-

Welsh Farmers.

On old political lines, regardless of Farmers
or Laboring Mems movements, the Democrats
have the Sheriff. and the Republicans the balance
of the County officers, aside from Commissioners,
one Of whom is Republican, one q Damocrat,
and one not = strict party man. The Represent

We think that Doniphan County may congrat-
ulate herself upon having secured an excellent

A SMALL OLIVE BRANCH.-We believe there
was better feeling among all PARTIES OH cleo
tion day, than there has been for the past two
years. Is it desirable TO make practical use of
the large Republican majority in the County, in
future elections. If it is, We take the occasion
t. say, here and now, that the time to take the
preliminary steps is at once, when the political
fight is closed, and bad feeling s not running
high. Experience has demonstrated that the
two factions of the Republican party cannot di-
vide on any Office and succeed. In nearly every
such case both are defeated, while candidates
upon whom there is no fight are triumphantly
elected. The only road to peace and harmony, is
to quit fighting and scheming against each other,
and trying to work ont rereDges for the past. 1t
wiz not do to wait until the midst of next years
campaign, aud after planning, seheming, wire
Pplling, and getting wofsh in the efforts of each
lzzEtF 10 eircumvent she other, ak abont unit
ing and sticking to the party, when the party is
split as wide open as it can be, We offer this
suggestion in time. Now, let us see who wants
peace.

A fruitful soil under the touch of intelligent in

of unnsual prosperity and success. A mercifuI
exemption from pestilence that has wrought

midst of health, security and peace we have
.nioyed measure of unexampled material pros

For these and other blessings in which We

Being, l. cOncurring in the recommendation of
the President of the United States do hereby
designate Thursday, the 9th of November as n

A CREDIT MARK.-Perhsps it is well known,
that in the last two years. Bayl. Campbell, Of
Highland, has not wasted any compliments or
fsvors upon us, and that the mutual admiration
between us has not been excessive. We may be
permitted, then, to place mark to his credit.
He was inveigled into the Farmers Convention,
and then sacrificed and slaughtered, in order to
kill off Maquilken. Then Jim. Robertson was
put forward, and orders were sent to Campbell
to support him. Then Price d Co., got up a
withdrawal card for Robertson to sign, calling
upon the faithful to rally around Shepherds
standard, and Campbell received official orders
to pitch in for Shepherd-One of the last men, in
all the world, under whom he was under any Oh
legations to support. Campbell declined to be-
come lick-spit or a taol, and falling back upon
bis pledge to abide by the decision of the Farm
ers Convention, pulled off his coat and sailed in
for the Farmers ticket. As result, at High
land, where it was expected everything would
go end-ways for Shepherd, he grt only IS votes,
while haquilken received 26-the other 137 go
ing for Yanderslice-and, what is more signif-
cant, this vote secured his election. We count
it to a mans credit that he will not be tool,
even if the result is against the candidate of our
choice.

DASBURY NEws.-We have recently, for the
first tame seen n copy of the famous Danbury
Neus, and must confess that we are badly disap-
pointed in it. 1t is quartO with gingerbread
head, and got up with very little taste. While
it is called the Necs it contains scarcely an item
of news. Even that which purports to be CORES
pondence from different cities, is foolishness and
trash-in fact, all the matter, Originally and Sc
lected, is of a sameness. 1t has but few local
items, and they of no Importance; the balance of
the editorial pages are made up of the peculiar
stuff which we going the rounds credited to
the Danbury Netcs, and which its editor appears
to have particular talent for writing, aided by
long practice. But the same stuff, column upon
column. week after week, must eventually be-
come irksome even to Connecticut Yankee AZ
ter hearing what tremendous circulation and
popularity the Danbury Ne1s was acquiring, we
expected to see something to justify it.

A Gallant Eight.

Sheriff Maquilken, although beaten, has made
n fight that has challenged the admiration even
of his enemies. And be has made it with very
little help except from few friends. For
months, the opposition to him had been worked
mp and drilled, aud every unpleasant duty that
he was compelled to perfurm was turned against
him. The Farmers Convention was packed
with delegates to defeat him, who, having sc-
complished this end, tnrned their Efforts to de-
feat the Farmers ticket few men calling
ing themselves the Republican Central Commit
tee, met aud nominated candidate, in the name
of the Republican party. The Liberals and DEM
ocrats met, and, although not making nomina-
tion, left the Office open for the purpose of allow
ing the Democrats to support the Farmers NOM
iree. A miscellaneous crowd, mostly from abOnt
town, calling themselves mechanics and labor
ing men, met in mass convention, and nOmina-
ted another candidate. Then, on the eve Of The
election, circular, written by Judge Price, and
signed by James G. Robertson, was put in circu-
lation, in which the latter, who had been recon-
mended by the Central Committee, Withdrew in
favor of the nominee of the Mechanics and La
boring Men, and asked Republicans to support
lin, as the only way to prevent the election of a
Democrat. In the face Of all these nominations
and endorsements, Maquilken went into the fight
ON his own merits. Every party and personal
appliance was brought TO bear against him
bummers were ont working in every direction
the saloons were in full blast against him; all
manner of false s'ories were put in circulation
men pretending friendship travelled around in
his company for The pnrpose of injuring him
and yet he held his oppouepts surh tight race
that they have nothing 20 bosst of in their vie,
tory. Dozens ef men, who said they preferred
him, and thought he was entitled to the office
claimed that it was no use TO vote for him, As he
would not be elected. There were enough Of
this kind to have turned the election in his IA
vOr. Men who should have considered them
selves under the deepest obligation to support
him, and whose influence wOuld have been of vi
tai service TO him, failed him in the time of
need. Even with these drawbacks, he could
have come safely through, had there been work
ers for him at all the precincts as there were at
Troy, White Clond, Wsthens, and Palermo But
at some important precincts there was no one
representing his interest.
We refer to these things, not to lament over
spilled milk, but to show the plucky fight Ma.
quilken made, almost alone, in the face of fear
full opposition, and with those gone back on him
who had availed themselves of his aid, and of
whom he had a right to expect help in return
To come within a hundred votes of an election
under such circumstances, is something TO boast
of even in defeat. We are sure that the frieudls
who stood by him have not half the cause to feel
badly over their defeat, as those VINO deserted
him and failed.

WHITE CLoCD.-We remarked, not long ago,
that the issue of beating the "Sol Miller Clique"
had had its day in White Cloud. That game is
played, and the current is set in the other dirrc
tion. They started out heavily against Maquil-
gen, on Tuesday morning, on the old Sol. Miller
issue. Shepherd was the man-not because they
had any love for Shepherd, but because they
knew we were in favor of Maquilkeu-but short
ly after noon, their last worker was laid up for
repairs. The votes that Yanderslice got, were
given without regard to the old fight. Here is
the way they Panned ont in heating the Sol. Mil

u The Democratic papers are growing oTer a
Republican defeat in Kansas. and figuring out a
majority in the Legislature against the Repnbi-
cans. They count every Farmers candidate, and
every independent candidate elected in apposi-
tion to the regular Republican ticket, rs being
opposed to the Republican party. Herein they
are mistaken. In this County, two farmers and
one independent Republican are elected. While
they will vote for all the just reforms demanded
by the farmers, they will take care that their
support for United States Senstor shall be given
to man who, among his other merits, is reli-
able Republican. We think that there are
great many of the same kind of men elected.
The Senate, elected last yeat, is almost unaui-
mously Republican, and we think Republican
majority, on all party questions win be found in
the House.
