WATCHMAN, WHAT OF THE
NIGHT?

Every day we are asked whatwe think
will be the result of the Presidential
election. Many Republicans are alarm
ed at the Dragging OF the Democracy.
That is no indication Of the result. Do
you not remember that one year ago Old
Bill Allen told his deluded followers all
over the State that he was absolutely
certain to be elected Governor, and it
was only question of the number OF
thousands that his majority would reach?
He said it could not possibly fall below
forty thousand, and it might, and proba-
bly, would, reach sixty thousand. Yet
the old man was beaten.
Our candid opinion is that Hayes will
not only be elected, but that he will have
over 200 electoral votes, while it only re-
quires lS5 to elect.
In all this we may be most completely
mistaken. In the year 1874, no one.
even a Democrat, believed that such a
nobody as James K Polk, could beat
such man as Henry Clay. In 1852, all
conceded the election of Gen. Scott over
Franklin Pierce; yet in both of these
elections, every body was mistaken.
Now let us give the reasons why we
believe Hayes will be elected. We take
the following from one Of our exchanges.
We believe the figures are correct:
In 1854 at the Presidential election the Dem

"reformer"

Through the energy of a number of young
men, among whom were Frank Cosper of the
RepuJiican and II. w. Kahler of the Co1uM-
DIAN, and the enterprise and liberality of many
citizens, sufficient sum of money has been col
lected to pay for the truck and apparatus of the
Rescue Hook and Ladder Company, which ar
rived on Monday last. The truck is very neal
in appearance Iand substantially made 1t i,
furnished with ladders, buckets, lanterns, pike
poles, hooks, &c, and will undoubtedly prove a
good investment, The Rescue boys are very
proud of their success, as they may well be.
What they. want now is a place to keep their
truck. Why cannot some enterprsing citizen
erect suitable building containing room ON the
first floor for fire apparatus, and ON the second
floor rooms for the accommodation of the com.
panies and Town Council chamber? The rent

POLE RAisING.-lIaving had some consider
able experience in pole raising in previous cam
paigns and having found when | reached the
ground n lack Of proper preparation and conse-
quent delay and danger, and seeing further a
growing disposition to indulge in that sort Of po
litical pa7tme and Use it as an nducement to q
larger rally, think il well to make some sug-
gestions upon the subject.
1st. The Pole should be from IS to 100 feet
high but altitude is not material and If u nice,
straight pole can be obtained, even a less num-
Der OF feet will be satisfactory.
ID. If the Pole is to be spliced that work
should be done the day before the raising The
bands should be wide and strong, and not less
than three Of them should be suppied-more il
the pole is long and heavy.
3d. At least dozen good pike poles should
be preparcd-and two or three sets of heavy
sheer poles, substantial and saie-and at least
three ropes, strong and well secured for steady
ing and assisting the pole as it approaches per-
pendicularty.
4th. Every thing should be ready the day be-
fore, for a pole to be raised at 3 p. m is always
delayed till 4 or 5 p, m. Thus every body, and
especially the speakers, are incommoded, time
wasted and patience tired.

POLE RAIsING-On Friday last the Demo-

Hon. David S. Brown to the chair and e!ecting

was addressed by Hon. c. r. Buckalew and Col.

fall. Its citizens are active and enthusiastic
and will give good account of themselves on
the day of the election.

which, together with small frame house ad-
joining, was entirely consumed. The buildings
were owned by S, W. Baker who kept salo IN

pied bv the Odd Fellows Association. The fire
originated in the basement, but the cause is not
stated. The brick house Of JOIN, ,McKamey on
the east and the frame dwelling of Mrs. Barton
on the west were badly scorched by the flames
and the window frames in McKamey's house
were mostly destroyed The Friendship En-
