A GENEROUS COMPLIMENT.

We trust we may be pardoned for the re-
production of the following very generous
and hearty word of praise from the pen of a
Democratic contemporary, Mr.. Mccarthy of
the Virginia Chronicle. The gentleman will
please accept our thanks for his just express
sion of appreciation:
Mr. Henry R. Mighels made a lengthy
speech at the Opera House last night 1t
was good, manly speech and We regret that
our efforts to secure full report should have
failed The Chronicle was represented by a
short-h reporter, as was also the Enter
prise, but Mighels, with his formidable array
of fgures-percentages dates and whitening
details-was too much for the reporters.
They both worked until 3 o'clock this morn
ing, vainly trying to fix up the report in time
for the Enterprise, and to-day, when the
Chro nicIe reporter applied for proof sheets he
was told that he could not get them until 8
P. M.-too late for our use. A very meager
synopsis of the speech, for the reason stated,
is all that We can give.

OUR COUNTY TICKET.

Who is the best man for Sheriff. Let the
disafected Republicans answer their own
question. Is it not true in this case that the
Republican nomination of S. L. Swift has
indicated better man than all the Denoc-
racts and Dolly Vardens in the world can
produce? An old citizen with stainless record;
whose fidelity to his friends and whose patri-
otism and loyalty to the party to which he
CLAIMS allegiance being unquestioned; whose
administration of his Office as Sheriff has been
always without default or failure; whose be-
nevolence of character toward friend and foe
alike is everywhere known and recognized.
How is Connecticut Democracy to suppress
him! Compare the two men, Swift and Hill,
and you voters will find superlative in Mr..
Swift every time. Mr.. Hill is an active bust
ness man and good citizen, and were it not
for British objections to carpet baggers we
could find it in cur heart to encourage him
III his business pursuits, and in the course of
time recognize him as entitled to the suffrage
of such a careful Republican, for instance, as
our valiant Captain NIeder But S. I. Swift
is certainly a pioneer, and if the Queen is
not misrepresented he will be declared on all
sides entitled to fair play at the hands of
Republicans To cut the matter short, he
will be elected because he is the best man.
We are panied to observe that England has
again invaded Scotland. If there is good
sound class of American citizenship it is
found in such men as James Fraser, our can
didate for County Treasurer on the Republi-
can ticket. His Scotch ancestry is sufficient
voucher that he will never betray trust.
His unostentatious life and many good quail
ties as a citizen are absolute guarantees of the
falsity of sneaking insinuations made against
him for poli-pardon US, local or county
effect He is better man than Mike wager,
for the all sufficient reason that he is posi-
lively true and loyal to the Union. To be
fair, however, to Mr. wager, we rebuke
base SANDER any attempt to represent him as
a carpet Dagger. Let the B. Lion keep his
claws off us on that proposition. He (Yager)
will not move out of Ormsby County until
he gets ready. Vote for Uncle James, who
is the best man.

OsTRICHEs FOR CALIFoRNIA.-Somem months
ago we published an article on the subject of
ostrich raising, in which it claimed that,
in view of the financial success that has at
tended the domestication of these birds in
South Africa, it might be profitable specu-
lation to import few pstriches to this country
and establish an ostrich farm in some section
like California, where the climate is known
to be eauable The seed thus sown has, we
understand, taken root, and two or three
Americans are now on ostrich farms IN South
Africa, informing themselves as to the habits
of the birds and the peculiarities of the bust
ness, with the ultimate intention Of establish
ing farms of similar kind in this country.
Bv one of these we are informed that the
cost of bringing ostriches to America would
be about $3.50 for each bird, provided sutti
GENTLY large number, say four male and six
teen female birds were ordered, and that for
this price guarantee could be obtained that
they would be delivered in New York city In
sound and healthy condition. 1t is also
stated that the soil and climate of central
Texas are adapted to ostrich culture, though
those now on the eve of engaging in the
work propose going to California, where one
of the number has been offered by wealthy
land owner the use, rent free, for term OF
years of large track of land, already fenced
in, as a means of encouraging this new IN
dustry.-Ne,g York Times.
