An Editors Life.
sedalia lMo.l pemocrat

What is an editors life anyhow except one eternal battle with the fates which lie perpetually in wait to ravage or de- vour human society? Call it what you will-religion. politics, peace, the law, justice, charity, patriotism, the chastity of women, the honor of the flag, or what ever else is holy and assaied-there stands the editor, his pen tor musket and his profession his dream in the biv- ouac and his ardor in the battle, By no possible road he can travel is there a winding river, or a castle lawn precious with roses.
The Russellville Democrat., 1880-07-01

REMEDY FOR FOOT ROT.
LARGE CROPS or POTATOES.

The following is recommended by the Ohio Fdrner as good remedy for foot rot in sheep: A solution of blue vitriol as strong as can be made and as hot as you can bear your hand in, even for a moment, having the liquid three or four inches deep, or deep enough to cover all the affected parts then hold the dis eased foot in this liquid ten minutes, or long enough to penetrate to all the dis eased parts put the sheep on the dry barn floor for twenty hours to give it a chance to take effect.

FOR 1880.

During the coming Presidential year The Tribune
will be more effective agency than ever for telling
the news best worth knowing, and for enforcing
sound politics. From the day the war closed it has
been most anxious for end of sectional strife
But it saw two years ago. and was the first persist
emily to Proclaim the new danger to the country
from the revived alliance of the Solid South and
Tammany Hall. Against that danger it sought to
rally the old party Of Freedom and the Union 1t
began by demanding the abandonment of personal
dslikes, and set the example. 1t called for an end
to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy
and for the heartest agreement upon whatever fit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state has been
won, and the omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNES POSITION
OF The Tribuncs share in all this, those speak
most enthusiastically who have most of the
struggle. 1t will faithfully portray the warming
phases of the campaign now beginning. 1t will
earnestly strive that the party Of Freedom, Union
and Public Faith may select the man surest to win
and surcst to make good President. But in this
crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the best
that could possibly be supported BY the Solid South
and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is now spending much labo and
money than before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the largest circulation among the best
people. 1t secured, and means to retain it by be
