TERRIFIC SHOWER.
Much Damage Done.

DANvILLE, n. Y, 8. A terrific shower of
hail and rain accompanied by wind, thunder
and lightning swept over this vicinity, last
night, shortly before midnight Hail fell for
ten minutes, many stones being larger than
walnuts. Great damage was done to or
chards. Buckwheat was fattened to the
ground, and immense fields of corn were
completely riddled. A large number of trees
and several outbildings were blown down.
At Camp Taber, damage was done in every
direction.

The republicans Of Augusta fought one of
the hardest contests, yesterday, that has ever
been known here, but coming out victorious,
and giving Daniel +. Davis a majority Of 93
over all other gubernatorial candidates, and
also electing both of our representatives.
The day was an unpropitious one for getting
out the full strength of the party. 1t began
to rain before daylight and continued to pour
heavily all the forenoon, but holding up a
little early in the afternoon. But in spite OF
the bad weather the streets were lively with
people long before the polls were opened at
10 o'clock, and when they did open were
quickly crowded and remained SO all through
the day The crowds for the most part were
very orderly, being too busy to have time for
any disturbances. The vote cast in the city
was one of the largest, if not the
largest, ever thrown here, the total
being 2O6l the total vote last fall being only
1884, and then ex-Gov. Conner received a
majority of 1872 over Garcelon and Smith. In
most of the wards the check lists were nearly
run through; in ward seven there were ten
persons who did not respond, but only two Of
them were in the city. 1t was about the
same in the other wards.
The republican workers deserve great cred
it for the vigor with which they entered into
the fight In every ward the contest was
sharp, but the republicans were so active. so
persistent and so plucky that they were able
to win the glorious victory, and too
much praise cannot be said in their be-
half. On representatives the democrats
concentrated all their strength to elect f. c.
Allen, but their effort was failure. There
were many split tickets in the field, but upon
the whole the voters stuck remarkably
close to the regular ticket.
There was so much interest in the regular
work to he done that voters almost forgot to
express an opinion on the constitutional
amendment, not one-half of them voting on
it at all.
We give below the official returns Of the
full ticket.

The smoke of IT'S torment rolls

Neither seems capable of taking,

baleful fires which the dramshop
parties are kindling, and to stay
the smoke Of the great torment
with which they are clouding
the heavens. Our revolutionary
fathers, in their stormy days con-
ceived the idea that taxation and
representation should be coupled
together, and they fought out
the old revolution on this line.
The Prohibitionists one hundred
years later, hold that taxation
and protection should go togeth-
er, and that a government that
thrusts its hand into our pockets
and takes our money is bound to
hold up a shield to our breasts
with the other, and protect us
from injustice and injury, and
especially from the waste and
ruin of the liquor traffic. The
protection Of the people is the
great end of civil government;
not their destruction,as the dram
shop parties practically seem to
imagine. In the name of all that
is just, venerable and wise in civ
il government, the prohibition
party demands protection to the
citizens from the worlds great
curse and crime, which turns
homes into hells, states into pan
deploniuIns, health into disease,
riches into poverty virtue into.
vice, hope into despair and life
