COINCIDENCE'X.


Our position here in Worthington is
:||0t peculiar. Elsewhere there is row.
lAyism, and there are rings" and in
competent officials. The newspapers
elsewhere show this, us our extracts
from time to time show. Let us not
flatter ourselves shat we are the only
virtuous people who have trouble with
disortlerly persons and with politicians.
Tl,e recent village election in Win
4lom resulted, as ours did, in the cleo
aion of the peoples choice instead of
the choice of the ring. The Reporter
says:
In this case it is quite evident the
people were allowed to elect the man of
their choice, and that the CAUCUS was
packed III Uarvey's interest, and we
hope the people Of the entire county
will take up the cue Of reform, estab-
lisl,ed by tie sensible. successful bust
ness men OF Window, and step outside
Of rings and cliques in their selection
Of officers, and especially since Window
il the political headquarters: The ex-
ample is timely and good, and should
its effects spread throughout the county
it would result benet'cialfy to the public
interests. The good citizens of Win
dom. all but seven, say elect 'chom you
.cant, and they will no doubt c4tenl
their new policy, with it's benign influ-
ence, not only throughout the county,
but throughQNt the entire land, until
the last vestiGe Of corruption in politics
is IS noke0 OUT The gallant and pat
rlotic sons Of Window have "acted no.
bly,; angels do no more" All honor to
them, and had they not stopped short,
but elected IN absolutely aud unconl-
pr0misingly prohibition Council, their
way 'twixt here and Paradise would
have been paved witt, the choicest
blessings Of Heaven, and all the world
would assemble to do homage to their
memory.
Go i for you, Huntington. But
ther be another paper started in
Win III if that's the way you talk.
The cporter says further:
W hope the new Council will have 4
stiff backbone and give the people the
need ordinances.
W. hope the same thing here and are
sure it will be done. Exactly the same
complaint was made in Wiudom that
was made against our last Council, and
for that reason the people put in PEG.
pies men. Tie Reporter, iii former
issue, sail:
Aside from the sidewalks and the
restraining Of half a dozen head of
stock, when we were first organized,
the Whole charter privileges have H.
mounted to a grad farce; and even III
these two particulars. parties have beer,
allowed to do about us they pleased.
and set aside the legislation OF tile coun-
Gil.
We Judge from this that their old
council and ours were about is mncl,
alike rs two eggs.

The Greenfield Mass Gazette and
Courier, recently contained y notice of
the death of Mr.. Eastman, who for Is
years was the editor of that paper and
who made it the most successful coun.
try newspaper in Western Massachu-
sets. The Gazette says:
Mr.. Eastman was little understood
by those who came III contact with him
in business life. Euth strict integrity,
his fidelity to principle, end deteri,i,.a.
ton to 40 and to publish ,ehat he beliered
,oas right, ecas recognized alike by friends
and party opponents, and for this he ,cas
held in u'.icersal esteem and respect,
Though abrupt and brusque sometimes
III manners, no man had Il more tender
heart, or more cheerfully contributed
to the aid of the poor and suffering.
For several years a considerable portion
OF his annual income has been bestowed
ii charity, but always III the most un-
ostentatlous and quiet way. Beneficial
ries from his bounty were. frequently
unaware ct the source OF their gifts.

THE INDIANN

the INDIANS
Bishop Whtpple has written a letter
to the Pioneer-Press Oh how to treat
Indian prisoners. He writes from Saw
vanah, Ca, giving an account Of how
seventy Indians chiefs who were taken
prisoners and sent to Fort Marion. St.
Augustine, were put under military dis
cipline, drilled, taught to obey and then
Christianized.
A similar suggestion has been made
before as to the disposal of the Indian.
If every Indian prisoner could Ike put
under military discipline for a year or
two, taught obedience, and gradually
educated to embrace Christianity, and
then returned to their own people rs
missionaries, we should he in i far bet.
ter way to civilize ana Christianise the
savage. If the barbarians who overran
Europe could be taken in hand and de-
veloped into the Christian nations of
modern Europe, we ought not to des-
pair of Christianizirg the red man.
FEMALE SUFFRAGE
At the recent election in Minneapolis
quite q number of ladies voted for
for school officers. There were two d.
rectors to be elected in the East Divis-
ion, and there were two lady candidates.
The official count showed the following
result:
Mrs. Winche,l's majority over DR.. Chute. ;. 14s
Mrs. VanClcve's majority over Isaac McNair, l43
The lady voters concentrated and
voted for tho lady candidates, thus de-
feating the two male candidates, both
of whom were Democrats, Thus is fe-
male suffrage fairly and peacefully in.
augurated in Minnesota. This will be
the entering wedge to general exer-
else of the right OF suffrage. Not until
women have their right to vote on the
liquor question, can we expect to see
the triumph of temperance in politics.
Give US female suffrage, and rum poll
ticians will be laid aside, and the rum
interest put in a hopeless minority.

of success, to win would be mis-
fortune and disgrace"
The foregoing are not isolated
cases, but the sentiments expressed
are common to every school district
throughout the land east of the
Rocky Mountains. It is certain
that no Democrat can be elected
President upon q hard-money plat
form. Where can IN old Jackson
Democrat, who adheres to the vital
principles of the old Democratic
party, go? Certainly not to the
rag-money party, now controlling

Seattle is making desperate effort
to build the first fifteen miles OF her
railroad. At Walla Walla one man
has constructed thirty miles of road,
and this without incurring one dol
lar of outside indebtness. Our peo-
low less than their Sound neigh
ors, but when it comes to real work
hey "stand in. - Walla Walla,
Statesman.
"That's what's the matter y If
/" one man. had not constructed that
thirty miles of road, the probabilities
are that it could never have been
done, and the people of Walla Walla
would have been " standing out
yet, as the people of Seattle have for
the last three years, waiting for the
lone man" power to accomplish the
work. The fright man for the right
place" has at length been found, and
the first section of our road will be
built without incurring one dollar
Of outside Indebtedness" and with
. surplus of not less than SO, 900
available assets in hand. The peo-
pie of Seattle have contributed more
than three times asmuch to the con-
struction of this road as the people
of Walla Walla did to theirs, and we
do not feel that we have done much
to " blow" about at that; but we do
feel that under the present manage
ment the completion of the road to
connect with the Walla Walla road
in the shortest practible time, main
ly through the enterprise of one
man, is assured, with or without the
of the people of Walla
Walla, who will be equally benefit
ted with those of Seattle by the
work. With this connection made,
we will be, not neighbors merely,
but one people, united by common
interest and working together for
the common veal; and in view of
his event every expression Of jeal-
ousy or rivalry is out of place.

fences built with posts. The fence re-
selnbles the ordinary "worm" fence.
consisting of rails firml , set into posts
which are stood on the surface of the
ground. kept erect by the zigzag course
of the panels. The timber being al
above ground is, of course. as durable
as it is in the nature OF such material to
be. and its strength is sufficient tol
withstand the strong winds which often
prevail in that part Of that Territory.
It is made by machinery specially de-
signed for the purpose. and is finished

TINE's CHANGEs.-For the greater
portion of our life we labored under
the delusion that fidelity to a politi-
cal party meant only fidelity to prin-
ciples; that principles were the only
proper basis of party-the sole claim
to the allegiance of its members.
Now We find ourselves often taunted
with a want of fidelity to party, even
while we have adhered with un-
shaken faith to all the political tenets
of the party which has had the best
services of the best years of our life.
What principles form the basis or
enter into the direction of the Dem
ocratic party to-day2 Who can
tell? What has become of the hard
money and free trade policy of the
old Jackson Democracy? Echo
alone answers. Those principles
have found permanent lodgment
in the judgment of a large majority
of the American people, but are not
crystalized into the platforms of any
political party; and it is but just to
ay that they are more cherished by
3 present leaders of the Republi-
can party than they are by the man
ayers of the so-called Democratic
party. For example: A large
majority of the Democracy of the
country are arrayed against the poll
cy of the Administration for an early
resumption of specie payments.
Richard Schell, the Chairman of
the National Democratic Committee
and official head of the party, re-
Gently presided at Convention in
Syracuse, N. Y, held for the
purpose of promoting the policy
of rag money. The recent Demo-
cratic Convention of Ohio en-
dorsed the same policy. Two
newspapers now before US, pub
lished 10 the same town in Iowa,
one Democratic and the other Re-
publican; the Democratic paper ad
vocates rag money and protective
tariff the Republican paper re-
sumption of specie payments and
free trade. The Wisconsin Patriot,
edited by two OF the Oldest Demo
cratic editors in the State, is almost
exclusively devoted to the advocacy
of paper money. In the course of
q long article after enumerating the
uses of money, it says:
eve assert, without fear of con-
tradiction, that the greenback is
the only currency we have ever had,
or probably ever will have. in this
Union capable of answering all
these enumerated qualities, adding
the cost of production"
The same paper declares its deter
mination not to harmonic or CO.
operate with any party which holds
to the theory of gold and silver
currency. In reply to a cotempo-
rary who begs Democrats to ignore
the currency question in the next
election, it says:
"a bullion, contraction, and de-
struction OF values sheet-a pseudo
Democratic concern-has a column
and a quarter of the slushiest sort
of drivel, begging Democrats to ig-
more the currency question, and join
with Its gold-forked tongue hypoc-
risy, in the gospel of harmony, for
the benefit Of hummer politicians.
We neither desire,
nor will we submit to any plan of
harmony not in harmony with the
oft-repeated pledges made to the
people in the name Of the Democra-
cy to oppose the insidious encroach-
ments of monopolies and monied
aristoceseiss. Any thing short Of
this il f1aI., to the people. #

YORK COUNTY,
lAnswer to DR.. Welch's article of April 9Th,


DR. WEIGH is pecuniarily interested and
personally engaged in the Health Lift business,
wnlch TACT affords the presumption that his ar
ucie in the DAILY PRESS against the use of rub.
Der was prompted by personal and pecuniary
CONSIDERATIONS rather than benevolent inter
est IN the cause Of physical culture. In the
next place he endeavors to create false inn
preston by representing himself as having in.
vented, tested and discovered the latest and
most approved rabber invention. The Pocket
Gymnasium is an entirely new invention and
is and.must be distinguished from other rubber
appliances which certainly are very defective.
One distinguishing feature is the use of a
strong inelastic check which serves the double
purpose of interrupting the movement and pre-
venting the breaking of the rubber, which is
apt to occur in the use of all other rubber an.
planes.
DIR. Welch's inventions he assures us wonld
have proved an egregious failure, and we have
every reason to credit the statement. This.
however, is no argument against the P. G.
What he tried and failed to do has been &C.
complished He found out that rubber could
10 many things. Another has found out how
10 make it do more than perhaps he ever
dreamed OF. Let him apply intelligently to
the L. u. and he will make real discovery for
once. He will discover that for convenience q i.

IRENE cheapness it is destined to supersede his
clumsy cast iron continuance. The p G.. is
