Daniel Gould Is quite sick.
John Zehner heard firing in Chi !

A spiritualistic nut.
"A workingman who voted the
Republican ticket was given his
walking papers" by his Democratic
employer. 1t is said that the en-
ployer can neither read nor write, but
he has learned the lesson OF proscrip.
ton. We don't think such conduct
would pan out" well for members OF
either party. 1t shows a dwarfsh-
ness unbecoming an American citi-
zen.
We are informed that one OF our
Democratic ward drummers cried in
his sleep because Tilden wasn't
elected.
When one OF our sensationalists
reported that there was fighting in
New Orleans, an enthusiastic Demo-
crat declared himself "eager for the
fray" and started off in search of his
gun. This is no fancy sketch, but an
absolute fact.
When Tilden was supposed to be
elected, without a doubt" the p. o.
at this place was duly canvassed, and
local politicians selected their posi-
tons. An honest Teutonic Demo.
crat. who was in Plymouth on the
llth. says the P. o. in that place was
the subject OF much discussion.
Upon intricate questions Of law
the Government should ask the opin-
ion OF some OF our local luminaries,
before whom such lights as Taft,
Cushing and Evarts are a mere
twinkle. While the latter would say
~we think" the former would declare
"we know"
Last Saturday night Democrats

ciates have but little respecD de.
clared. in n public place. that the
people OF Chicago could prevent the
execution OF an order of the govern
ment. He also declared that the In
dianapolis Journal had been, and
was still advocating war; all OF
which demonstrated his confidence
in the Power OF the govern
ment, his familiarity with the Journal
and his good, sound sense. We beg
pardon OF those present for permit
ting ourself to make few caustlc
remarks. as the vaporings OF such ig-
noramuses should be treated with ST.
lent contempt.
The people need not be afraid OF
war. This government Is not a myth,
but mighty power, and the infiam-
matory speeches and appeals Of fools
and towards will find no response
from men OF sense and judgment. II
there were fools enough to organize
resistance to the constitutional forms
Of law and government their efforts
would be "nipped In the bud" and the
leaders have a sorry time OF it. The
man who talks about war ought to
have temporary addition to the
posterior part OF his anatomy.
Americans are not the only peo-
pie who love to be humbugged.

Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas. Al
ALBANIA and Florida are good enough
to elect Tilden, but South Carolina,
louisiana and Georgia are not good
enough to elect Hayes. This is the
latest Democratic philosophy.
-Tilden carried only four North
err States yet Ii ten to the Demo
cratic chin music. They talk as
though he carried all the states ex-
cept South Carolina, Louisiana and
Florida, and ought to have them.
Business Is reasonably good, and
the song OF Hard Times" is sung on
ly by those who refuse to work when
work Is offered them. Five hundred
Hayes or half thousand Tildens
wouldn't benefit such fellows.

Miss Kate Bitters. They were legal

Theodore says he is willing to sign
the pledge il allowed his Bitters. We
grant the exception and wish them a
happy life.
Last Sunday we gave the minis
ter and audience at the Advent
church the encouragement OF our
presence. 1t was the first service In
the new building, and was perhaps
considered dedicatory. although no
forms or ceremonies were INDUCED
in. Mr.. Reed, OF Plymouth, deliv-
cred the discourse-and a very good
one 1t was-and the audience was
just large enough to be comfortably
seated. We take occasion to repeat.
that the society has a neat and COM
modious ediflce. They are In debt
to the amount Of about $500, but
there will be no difficulty in making
up the deficit.
Last week there was Pastoral
Institute at the Christian church, and
we are informed that the lectures
and meetings were interesting. Bus
mess prevented our attendance.
