A STRANGE bill has been introduced
into the Illinois legislature. 1t author
ICES the incorporation of burglary and
insurance companies.u 1t is thought
that it will be heavily ~patronized. A
Chicago paper, In noting the bill, says
that there might be grave danger that
such corporation. In competing for
business, would stimulate robbery if
they did not become active 'sc~oparcen-
ers'' in IL. One of the first things to
be done by the enterprising managers
Of a company would naturally be to en-
ter into relations with the proprietors
Of ''fences," ::or places Of deposit for
thieves plumber, whereby stolen prop
erty might be recovered OF payment of
a certain percentage Of its value. In
fact, in some places it is pretty well UNI
derstood that arrangements of this
character already exist between thieves
and detective agencies. While persons
who are robbed are usually willing to
pay handsomely for the return Of their
property, land no questions asked y it
is generally believed that the general
effects Of the system are simply abon-
niable. Thieves are encouraged to ex-
tend their operations because they are
assured that the goods stolen may he
easily and safely disposed of, and the
necessity or expediency Of negotiating
with them or their agents is no less de-
moralizing to the people who are robbed.
If the business of insurance against
robbery is to be legalized, care will
have to be taken that thieves them.

OSE of the noticeable features. the
Pittsburg Post remarks, of the Grant
reception in that city, was the anxiety
to provide every comfort for Judge
Agnew by those who, short time ago,
pushed him aside like old furniture.
He deserves all the attention he re-
ceived and was justly entitled to a
central position in the business of the
day, but it will badly compensate for
the deadly jostle he received at the
hands of these same Republicans at
the judicial Convention. Evidently
the Judges charity covereth a multi
tude Of sins.

constant predictions Of failure rung
into our ears, we commenced the pub
lication of The CENTRE DEMOCRAT
one year ago. This issue completes
the first volume of our paper. How
far we have met the expectations of
the public we can only infer from the
steady increase of patronage that has
been awarded us without personal So
licitation on our part. One thing Is
certain: we have endeavorcd to meet
public approval by close attention to

columns Of the DEMOCRAT ~ would

reader, striving at the same time 10
avoid all that might offend good taste
or do violence to enlightened public
sentiment. If we have succeeded in
this, one of the principal objects of
the publication has been attained, and
We will enter upon our second volume
with the approved of our own con
sciences in having performed our duty
aud redeemed our promise. when we
started our enterprise. We shall pro-
cccd into the coming year with renew
ed and encouraged determination to
render the DEMOCRAT in every respect
still more worthy of the favor and
support of the intelligent people OF
Centre county. While freely noting
and criiicising the deeds and word. OF
public characters, the actions aud prin-
ciples Of political parties, and the pass

into no personal quarrels with our con
tcmporaries or others, nor is it our de-
sire or intention to do so hereafter un-
less driven to it to rcrel wrong or vim
dicate the cause of truth or justice.
The first number of the second vol
umc Of the DEMocEAT will appear on
the first day Of January, lSSO, aud in
view of the important events to occur
in this year-including an election for
President and Vice President of the
United Statcs-which will necessarily
excite the public mind aud lead to
extended discussion, may We not hope
that our friends throughout the county
will remember Us with still greater
generosity. We promise to discuss all
issues of political or other nature
that may arise and demand our at
tention, not with the object of dccciv-
ing or misleading the reader, but by
presenting such arguments and facts as
will lead to Just conclusions. The
success of the Democratic party--thc
advocacy of its principles and the sup.
port of its candidates will of course
require and receive our earnest efforts,
and yet we hope not to neglect the
general features that have heretofore
been part of our paper. We shall
collect and record the local news and
occurrences Of the times, and the agri
cultural, manufacturing and general
business interests of our community
shall receive attention commensurate
with their importance. With these
words we hope to extend hearty
