CENSUS NOTES.

The census enumerators for Oxford
County have deposited their certified lists
with the Clerk of Courts. Next week
we shall publish from their records a
table, giving the population of each town
in 1870 and in 1880; also showing the
gain or loss in each town.
During the last decade, Oxford County
has fallen of nearly eight hundred in
population. This has not been occa-
stoned, as the enumeratorS uniformly de-
clare, BY abandoning farms and hocking
TO cities; bu, is due entirely to small
families. Mr. Bean. enumeratOr Of
Brownfeld, called our attention hrs; 70
this fact, and gave some authority for his
statements. Since then we have inquired
closely into the matter, and ind It Is a
general complaint, that where years ago
there were on the farms families Of ten
or q dozen children, there are now very
few such. Families OF one or two chill
dren are the rule, while many have none.
Below We give some town statistics
furnished BY the enumerators:

Wake Up.
Waco Examiner

The first convention of the season opens ut
Galveston, on the 9th of April, conven-
ton callsd to appoint delegates to a national
Democratic convention, to meet some time
probably in May or June, TO nominate a
President or Vice. President County con-
ventions to send delegates to Galveston, have
already been called in some counties, and are
being called in others, and there is not mo-
ment to lose on the part of voters. The poll
tics Of the State are now in their hands and
it is for them to make up their opinions,
rouse up their Indifferent neighbors and get
themselves in a condition to speak intelli-
gently their wishes. Though the convention
at Galveston is mostly for national matters,
vet the politicians will swarm about that
convention and make it the beginning of
their great campaign. 1t is therefore desir-
able that delegates to that convention should
reflect the will of the people en- State policy.
If the people neglect their duty now they
will be snapped off like horses, in the con-
veniion to nominate State officers in August.
Let the people make up their mind as to
what State policy they like, and send dele
gates to Galveston inbued with their own
sp rit and doctrines.

Sound Doctrine.
Brenham Banner.

The Democratic party is the only sound
party in the South and if it should ever lose
its supremacy the safety of the country is
gone The fact is that SO far as the interests
of the country at large are concerned the Re-
publicans of the North and the Democrats
of the South are but little apart. The two
parties represent the responsibility of their
respective sections of the country, and if
there was more freedom of intercourse, peo-
pie would understand each other better and
there would be no feeling Of bitterness such
as exists at the present time. In the North
crn States man has an idea that if he was
in the South and II was known that he was
from o Northern State, he would be shot on
general principles. No idea could be more
wrong, anc Northern men living in Southern
States are the FIRST to tind this outfit inteli-
gent and unparalleled.

Jederson, Feb 26.--We have just succeed

horrible outrage which was committed in
our neighboring county (Cass) last Sunday

retribution that followed are too horrible to
relate in detail. Tho affair has been pre-

Mrs. CLARK, who was the wife Of an industri-

ion alluded to, returning home from n
county church. She had attended tho even

name figures so consplcously in this terrible
tragedy. Mrs Clark had reached point
some three.fourths of mile from the nearest
house. and although alone seemed TO apnre-

dark deed, black scoundrel named Charley

THAT MEAN sAr FRANCHISE CASE.

Since pehlishing an item relative
to the possible disiranchiseuent Of
the Neah Bay people, we have re-
ceived q private letter from that sec
ton which throws some light on she
sul ject. Although it was not writ

srsy Of giving our readers the bene--
it Of a few extracts. The writer
says:
"Wm. Gallick, the trader, pays
his tax; every other man who is en-
titled to pay tax does so. But the
fact is that no taxes we're collected
or attempted to be collected from
the many vessels trading here last
summer. The Captains all told me
they were willing to pay license
but would not 60 to Dungeness to
hunt up the bill. If Sheriff Fores

pie he could have collected taxes and
licenses on all but he like many 9th.
er sheriffs construed the revenue law
20 mean that everyone must march
up to the Auditors office and settle.
Ssch men as Baxter, Pullen, and
others who have been trading, and
all the schooners, were willing to
pay Licenses and taxes If the Sheriff
had come to them with bills, but to
suppose that they would leave their
business and 60 to Dungeness to
hunt for chance to pay their taxes
is preposserous. If the Sheriff OF
Clalam county had done his duty and
visited all the traders here he could
have collected taxes and licenses,

farce of DISTINGUISHING Neah Bay and
