APR0MIsE MADE GOOD.
Two years ago when Rohrer, Thomp-
son, Town, ETC., beat Captain Mills,
the regular nominee of both Convene
tions, by reporting everywhere that he
was incompetent, We said:
But the Captain can afford to bide
his time. The end is not yet. We can
assure these men that we ''shall meet
them at Philippi."
We have kept our promise. And tho
people have righted the wrong done two
years ago. That they will never have
cause to regret the day they made Capt.
Mills Auditor, we feel quite sure.
WHO KILLED COCK ROBIN.
In view of the triumph of the Peoples
Ticket, we can bear with even more
than our usual equanlmity to be ''cuss-
ed"and discussed, and to have the tick.
ct called the "a. p. Miller hybrid ring
ticket.' We think the people and the
candidates elected can bear it also. As
Byron says, 'there's nothing 50 sue
cessful us success"
AS we said in previous issues, the
ticket was put in the field after consul
t:tion with numbers of the best men in
all parts of the county who pledged
their support. We do, however, claim
the credit of starting the Miller BOOM
After weeks search over the county
for just the man who could carry the
village against Town and also the coun-
ty, we: hit upon II. r. Miller. When we
issued out upon the street and set the
ball rolling we found easy work. Near
ly every man TO whom we spoke made 4
bee line for the Drug Store to urge Mr..
Miller to run. The news spread over
the countya and the farmers began to
drop in and pledge their support to him
and the ticket was soon completed and
then ratified ut the election. Thank
the Lord for the ratification!
TIE MEANEST THING OFALL.
During the recent campaign the Rol,-
rer party ende;tvured to bring odium
upo" the P-opIe's movement by pro-
claiming the fact that tile editor Of the
ADVANCE, who espoused the peoples
cause, was a Spiritu.list. They even
resorted to semi-obscene doggerel ridi-
culing the whole ticket as "Miller's n.y.
brids," us Free Lovers, flow -breds,"
etc. OF course, all this had no effect
upon sensible people other than to ex.
cite their disgust and their contempt
for those who resort to s:ch meanness.
We confess that we are il Spiritualist

Garrison, Senator B. F. Wade, Horace
Glee:ey, Vice President Wilson and
many more Of the great Anti-Slavery
leaders and public men whom we might
name, and us are scores and hundreds
of the purrst patriots, best citizens.
finest scholars and greatest thinkers Of
the age. But what this has to do with
county politics, amy more than Presby-
terianism, Metl'odisln, Congregation
alis,n, or amy other religious ism, is
what we would like to know. Tie men
who resort to sucl, contemplate meth

tolerant and bigoted but still more
grossly ignorant Of what Spiritualism
is.
One of the men who was defeated at
the recent election was responsible for
the Juror raised against US two years
ago aud indirectly responsible for a
proposed attempt to mob the ADVANCE
office. Such men are unfit for public
trusts. THE mills of the gods grind
slow, but they grind exceeding fine. "
On Friday afternoon last, while G. B.

horses took fright at an engine near the
crossing just east of town and ran away.
At the corner near the Second Avenue
House, the buggy upset and threw both
occupants to the ground. Mr.. L. was
