For four-score years the Democratic
party has been in existence, and we be-
lieve it is good for that many more years
During that period party after party has
been born and buried, and still the old
Democratic party lives. 1t has passed
through many hard fought battle, and,
thoug n crippled and defeated in some of
them, has never surrendered.-Marie
Times
1t was successful at Bull Run, and par
TALLY so at Shiloh, but it was somewhat
crippled at Gettysburg and DEBATED at
several other places. The Times seems to
have forgotten Appomattox when it says
the party never surrendered.

Bowen, of the Macarthur Enquirer, is a
great figurist Last winter he said that

sum of fifteen dollars per day, and now
he declares that square mile contains
$40 rods This is what he says:
To lay off a square acre of ground
measure 206 feet on each side, and you
will have a square acre to an inch. An
acre contains 4, $40 square rods. A square
mile contains $40.

The Democrats held convention in
Portsmouth last week and nominated
James W. Newman of the Portsmouth
Times for State Senator. He was the
Senator for this district in the last Legis-
lature, and made very respectable
member, but he was bitter partisan.
The Republicans will make nomination
this week, and if they put up popular
man they can elect him, as there was a
Republican majority last fall in this Sen
atorial district of over 500.
