n We know man vino is such a rantanker-
ous Republican that be could not think of vot-
ing for Democrat like Otis; yet he proposed
to a Democrat, that he would scratch Anthony,
aud vote for John Martin for Governor, if the
Democrat would vote for Hubbard. That was
the style of the Hubbard mems consistency, all
through.

Mr.. Heatley attended a meeting at Doniphan,
on Saturday night, and after consultation and a
review of the ground, withdrew from the race for
Representative. For this, he has been eersured
by many persons. Tho assert that he has injured
himself by his action. We think differently. He
acted magnanin,ousy and did not sacrifice his
selfrespect. He believed that he had been de-
prived Of the nomination. last year, by ways that
were dark. and determined to try it over this
year, when he succeeded in obtaining the nomi-
nation fairly. At once strong opposition was
got up against him, and second candidate was
callet. out, which would have inevitably resulted
in the election of Democrat. Heatley determ-
med to stick TO it, and had encouragement to do
so. But the men who urged him the strongest,
failed to back him at the critical time; and when
he went to Doniphan, the support that he de-
pended upon weakened, and thought he had bet
ter withdraw. When he was once off, he found
lots of friends who wonld have stuck to him to
the last! They all would have supported him,
if he had stuck Men who had done the most to
discourage him, cursed him for withdrawing /;
and persons who had signed a petition to bring
"nt an opposition candidate, protested that they
had intended to vote for him on the sly! These
were the men who cansed him to withdraw; and
after he was off, this proffered support was use
less. He sacrificed himself to save the party.
Had he continued in the field, and Democrat
had been elected, the entire blame would have
been saddled upon him, and by these same fel-
lows. But now he is noble fellow, aud they
are convinced tnat he is true Republican, 1t
is very much like the old method in Scotland of
ascertaining whether old woman was witch.
She was sewed mp in bag, and thrown into the
river. If she got ont and escaped, it was done
by means of wifchcrsft, and she was forthwith
burned; but if she drowned, she was considered
innocent, and her fate regretted. So with
Heatley. If be remained on the track, he was a
disturber, and must be slaughtered; but if he
got ont of the way, he was a true Republican,
and they would like to support him. In either
event, Heatley was up the spout

SPECIAL LEGISLA TION.

The City Council, in an abundance OF
good nature, Tuesday night, cut out a good
deal of trouble for itself. On the applica-
ton of Judge Hendren, a nonresident,
they agreed to lay the water pipe out to his
property, he paying for itnow, and the city
rec mbursing him in three years, SO in eff
feet it is at the city's expense. Next to
accommodating it's own citizens, the object
of improvements is to bring residents and
taxpayers into the city, and we suppose no
city legislative body, with its head level,
ever taxed its property holders heavily to
build Improvements and then, for a
.trifling consideration readily gave the ad-
vantages of the improvement to non-resi-
dents. Much less, we presume, did any
Council ever saddle on the city itself the
cost of extending such benefits to u non-
resident. Can the Council conceive the
number Of similar applications from the
owners of building lots the granting Of this
one will lead to, and if they can, how do
they propose to refuse them? Every
property holder On the edge of the city will
claim the same privilege, and you can't
discriminate for one man against another
The very active conversation which this
extraordinary action Of the Council has
created in the city will spur up new appli-
cants.

SABBATH-SCHooL PIC-NIC.-The schol-

whole of the Shorter Catechism, in con-
nection with their other lessons. Tie

baths. The exercises On Friday commence
ed by the singing of the hymn, ''What
friend we have in Jesus" Rev. A. Fl.
Hamilton made an address from the text,
''Where much is given much will be re-
CURED" The minister, at it's conclusion
was thanked by Mr.. James Miller ill behalf
OF the scholars. Dinner was announced
in the grove, after which there was GRO
quet playing, singing and so forth-the at
ternoon passing off delightfully."-. The
church was nicely decorated with wreaths
and notices in cedar, the notices being
selected from tue Bible. The decorations
reflected great credit on the young ladies
of the school whose work they were ''Al-

audience room of the church The lnterl-
OF is lighted by d large Gothic window IN
front and windows on the side. The peWs
and other wood work are OF finished white

stands and the columns supporting the
galleries are Of iron. The pulpit is of wal
nut highly carved, and in front of it is a
railing enclosing the altar space. The
pitch of the room is 20 feet. The choristers'
place in the gallery is rallied off and filled

on Tuesday night with the following men,

Messrs. Powell, Larew. Witt, Evans, Abby,
Bledsoe, Bagby and Byers:
Piping Water Outside City Li1aits.-Mr.
Evans, from the special water committee,
eported in favor of granting petition of
Judge Jno. N. Hendren, nonresident of
the city, to use the city water under the
following agreements: that the city purchase
and lay the pipe to his property outside the
city, and pay itself out Of a bond he holds
against it, shortly to fall due, but three
years from now the city is to pay him back
the money. He is to pay for the use of the
water at the same rates citizen Of Staun-
ton does.
Mr.. Larew opposed it on the ground that
the city could not give water to non-resi-
dents and non-taXpayers.
MI. Witt also opposed it on the ground
that it was not expedient.
MI. Evans urged it on the ground that
Judge FL. wanted the accommodation to
make some building lots more valuable,
and that the occupation of these lots would
give additional customers for city water.
Messrs. Abby and Fultz both favored it,
and the vote being taken, there was only
one vote in the negative-Mr. Larew. (Mr
Bagby was absent at this vote.)

that MI Hayes being al Ohio Republican,
might be expected to write what it is

The COMING PRESIDENTIAL
VOTE.


The following table made up by the New
York Sum- since the Indiana election,
our readers will find after the election has
been the most accurate prophecy Of the
campaign. They can cut it out and read
it as they are going to the polls the morn
ing Of the It'll of November. The only
change likely to be made in it is that, if
Grants operations with the soldiers in
the South are continued, Massachusetts
(which revolted from the Republicans from
that cause in 1919 Pennsylvania and Ohio
will more than likely be ''certain for Til
den." Our readers will remember, the whole
number of electors to be chosen is 369, and
the candidate who gets as many as 1S5 of
these will be elected. Here is the record
as it stands since Indiana voted:
