The Democratic ticket, on the
great question of finance, is like a
certain class Of war vessels built for
service during the late rebellion. They
were called double enders," from the
fact that they could run either way
with equal facility as occasion might
require. Tilden, a pronounced hard
money advocate, and backed by that
Influence in the East, and Hendricks,
representing all that is wild in the
West on the initiation side. The fnan-
cial plank adopted at st. Louis is
equally ambiguous, and sustains both
ideas or neither as desired

--In his lnlinr nddrnsand ln lhn

In his letter addressed to the
Hayes and Wheeler ratification meet
,ing in New York, General Dix, says
TThe FOUR months before us will
afford Time to canvass the question in
telligently and thoroughly, ard, what
is of equal Importance, they will ena
bic us to demonstrate by an analysis
of his public acts, that the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, instead
of being o reformer, as he and bis fol.
lowers assert, is himself in as urgent
need Of reform as the party whioh,pnt
him in omination, Moreover, it will
enable us to demonstrate by indispu.
table facts that the Government for
the chief, office in which he has been
noninated would not now exist if his
example during the rebellion had
been followed by his countrymen."

The 30th of May being set apart
as day on which to do honor to tho
memories Of the brave men who gave
up their lives that that the Union
might be preserved intact to tho
hundredth anniversary of its birth,
was duly observed throughout tho
country yesterday in a manner indi-
Gated by the headlines above. But
in Mineral Point the day passed
without the least show of observance.
Our people seem to have entirely
forgotten the stirring events of but
few years ago, when those whose
ashes lie in our cemeteries, among
others, were cheered on to the dam
gers and hardships Of war by pledges
of remembrance and honor from
those remaining in comfort and safe
ty at home.

A MAJORITY of the editors of west
ern local journals are men of little
education save what they acquire as
printers, and hence their frequent
grammatical errors and imperfect
rhetoric and logic are viewed with
charity. But when sentences like the
following are found in journals edit
ed by college graduates, who pride
themselves on their superiority to
the average country editor, a smile
is provoked:

The LINDEN RoAD.-Like Ban
quo's ghost, this subject twill not
down at bidding" but each Spring
and after each heavy rain rises to
confront us in muddy horror. The
people of Linden manifest DISPOSE
tion to do their part the present
summer towards silencing this troub-
lous question, by making stone and
gravel road from that village to the
township line. Now, il there is any
means by which the road from that
point to the western limit of the city
can be repaired in the same manner,
we may hope to reach the much de-
sired end-a good road from here to
Linden. We have no plan to pro-
pose, but rely upon the enterprise
and wisdom Of onr people for solu-
ton of the difficulty.

WANT OF space prevents any eX-
tended comments this week, on the
proposed Railroad extension in the
interest Of which meeting was
held in this city on the oath. Mr..
Strong, who was appointed to solicit
subscriptions to the stock, has been
sick, so that he could do but little
the past week, but will soon be Wig
oronsly at work. We hear that Mr..
j. J. Ross has subscribed for 80
Shares, and others for smaller a.
mounts. At least 200 shares onght
to be taken in Mineral Point, and
that would &c far toward insuring
success to the enterprise at an early
day. We hope to record that amount
taken by the 4th of July.

"THB SPIRIT OF '76, if it over ex-

flown to Milwaukee where beer is
only 3 cents a glass, or to Philadel-
phia where the patriotic citizens arc
getting rich from exorbitant prices
for the same beverage and other ad-
juncts to the great centennial exposi-
tion. The boys Of the Democrat
Office issued posters calling for q
meeting to be held last Monday
evening, to arrange for celebrating
the fast approaching Centennial 4th
of July, and with commendable zeal
went and rung the City Hall bell for
an hour or more without getting any

tered question, "shall we celebrate" I"

MCCoRMICK's HARVESTING Ma
CHIMES have as many friends among
farmers as any machine in the mar
ket, and are undoubtedly well deserv-
ing favor. The McCormicks are
yearly making new and valuable i'm
provements to their machinery, and
thus ever keeping in the van. Their
latest attraction is the "Harvester"
which carrys binders, and enables
the farmer to save his grain with
less help and in much better shape
than heretofore. See advertisement
elsewhere in this paper, and If you
want machine, call on Mr. b. Pratt,

10 accept the Cnf0aacIe as q rep
resentative Of the people Of Dodge
vile would be to reflect upon the in
telligence Of that community. Hence
we warn our readers against mistak-
ing tho comments Of thu. paper upon
the Mineral Point and Portage City
Railroad proposition, as an express
sion of the sentiment d the people
of Dodgeville. Indeed ihe represent
ative men of that town generally
prefer a railroad connection with
Mineral Point to any dher, and we
believe that majority Of the people
there who give tho matter thought
are of the same mind. The Chroni-
ele editor, being comparatively a
newcomer to Dodgeyille, seems to
have been SO unfortunate as to train
with envious, prejudred people that
exist at Dodgeville, as in other places,
and to be thoroughly imbued with
their sectional jealouries and animos-
tiles. They belong to class who
view everything not originating in
their own narrow minds with dis
trust or envy. The Chronicles pref
erence for the proposed narrow
gauge railroad is but natural. ga
fellow-feeling" makes that paper
"wondrous kind" to everything of
narrow gauge character and rem
deres it incapable of appreciating
enterprises of the broad gauge order.
>>
AND So 4TH.-It seems that there
is so great lack Of enterprise in
this city that the business men will
not unite in making preparations
for a celebration of the centennial
anniversary Of the nations birth.
Even selfish interest ought to in
duce our people to provide appro-
pirate exercises for that day, which
all must feel to be the most import
ant day in the history Of our Union
and in the records of Free Institu-
tions. Peculiarly fitting will be a
celebration of the day which marks
q century of such growth as ours
has been; when review Of the past
cycle will afford ground for gratula-
ton upon achievements won, and
for guidance in the cycle which lies
hidden in the mazes Of the future.
Let US not let this glorions opportu-
nifty slip by without imparting to us
some of the benefits, the lessons and
high duties which surely are held
for every liberty-loving citizen of
the land. The time presses when
the Orator should be chosen and
various exercises provided. Let no
one be discouraged. We can not
afford to be blind to our interests
and duties on this occasion.
