LInolzson Tribune and sum

Under all the circumstances the
democracy of this congressional dis
trict would act wisely and patrioti-
cally by re-nominating and electing
Hon. J. D. c.. Atkins. We know
that under ordinary conditions he
would not be a candidate, but the
pressure from all parts of his dis
triet has been so strong urging him
to make the race in the interest OF
democratic harmony that he cannot
decline the earnest solicitations OF
his party friends. He has the con-
tidenee of the democracy of his dis
trict, he has made an enviable ma
tiOnal reputation, he has proved in
many crucial tests faithful and able,
he is bold and honest, he has exl e.
rIence and tact, he has the magnet
ism to draw and the brains to lead
in this important crisis. There are
other true democrats and able in
the district, but none combine so
largely all the elements of success.
Ina juneture like the present, when
madmen are raving and party feal-
ty is growing lax when principles
are being threatened with subordi-
nation to personal ambitions; when
factions rage and unscrupulous men
pander to the madness of the hour ;
when democratic success is imper-
lied by demagogues, and the very
air filled with jealousies and wran-
glings-in time like this, one
blast on Atkins's "bugle-horn were
worth ten thousand men,"

A YOUNG gentleman somewhat
numerous in social circles took his
sister, a wee miss, TO see a family
the other day in which he is n reg
ular caller. The little girl made
herself quite at home, and exhib-
tied great fondness for one Of the
young ladies hugging her heartily.
"HOW very affectionate she is"
said the lady of the house. "Yes,
Just like her brother" responded
the young lady, unthinkingly. Pa
ter-familias looked up sternly over
his spectacles, the young gentleman
blushed, and there was confusion
In the family circle.
