The officers elect took the usual Oh
legation and at once assumed the duties
of their several positions. The election
of officers prevented the consideration Of
the subject for discussion ''The Modes
OF Flowing" which was laid over
till the next meeting.
Very carefully prepared and well
written essays were read by Mr.and Mrs.
J. Wayne Amos, the former on Com
pensation, the latter on Life.
Selections were read by Mr. Fred
Kingman and Miss Lula Van Eaton.
For tho next meeting Of the Club, Or.
and Mrs. Van Eaton were selected to
prepare the club paper, and Mr. E. Car
ter and Henry Blair were appointed to
read essays.
The Club supper was then the order,
and was, as usual with the ladies of the
valley, excellent and bOuntitul, and ell
enjoyed it.
After q couple OF hours spent socially,
tie members dispersed TO meet on the
evening of the oath OF November. az the

Duty OF Republicans to Support Their Own
Ticket.

The last genera! election showed that
the county OF Douglas was unmistaku-
biz Republican in sentiment. Tho party
with great unanimily has made its nom
nations for county officers, this fall.
The nominees are good men, we'll quail.
fed for the positions TO which they have
been nominated We nave nothing TO
say against their opponents personally,
but we may fairly claim that they
are no letter than the Republican nomi-
nees. There is no good reason why
Republicans should moi support their
own candidates in preference TO others.
Ali OF these officers have more or less
political influence. There is no good
reason why Republican county should
not have Republican officials. Ii is i'm.
possible to End anywhere u county with
"a clear opposition majority which voiun-
tarily gives it offices 10 Republicans Of
course, this is an argument addressed TO
Republicans, and it is addressed 10 them
because those who are running on the
opposition ticket are soliciting hepub!i
can votes.
We have never been in favor Of draw
ing party lines very close in our NUM-
cipaI elections. The Republicans of this
county have been very generous to their
opponents But this fall the opposition
party fastened TO put candidates in the
field, on party busis, and the Repubii-
can party having nominated candidates
OF its own, we SEQ no good reason ~hy
Republicans should not support them. -

But while the county is in fsir oondi-

suit OF tax paying. although the present

Irelani,

The population Of ireland decreased
by 1,622,3l9 persons between the years
l84I-'5I, by 775,8l4 in the next decade,
and By 396, 2oS between the years 1861
II. There is reason TO believe that this
decrease by tho end Of the present de-
cade will have wholly ceased-that Is,
that the emigration will not exceed the
natural increase Of the population. The
condition OF tho country Is now really
prosperous. Wages have greatly ad-
vanced in consequence Of the limited
supply Of iaboiers The reform OF the
Land law has had most excellent effect.

to take up their abode ia their native
land. The aggregate investments IN
Government stocks, joint stock banks,
savings banks in 1864 were &5l 583,.
900 but on the 3oth OF Jane, 1874. thoy
were C67 1862. 600, an increase OF g per
cent. in ten years. The value Of live
stock in 1864 was e3o.728;9lo; in 1874
twas E37 ,225,8S6 It's to be remarked
that although in thirty years Ireland
has lost about 100000 Of her people,
tho relative proportion of Catholics aud
Protestants romans almost unchanged.
In Munster, in 1881, 938 out OF every
LOCO we're Catholics; tho proportion
now in $50 to each 1000. In Kerry tho
Catholics IN 1881 were 987 IN each | ,oou;
thoy now are ees In every LOCO. In
"Protestsnt" Ulster which is Protestant
only in nsme-there wero ISL Catholics
in each 1000 in 1861, and now there are
756 to each 1000. The old faith does
not die our. despite the fact that the en-
igranls are for the most part Catholics.
