The Wellington enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 1867-188?, 1880-11-18

THE publisher of new paper at New
London, called the Tri County News, sends
US the initial number, which we would
cheerfully welcome to-our exchange list if
we could entertain any honest sympathy
for his new project But We fail to see
any good reason for starting another paper
in that village. The people ofNew London
and vicinity ought to know that the more
universally and literally they sustain their
one newspaper and job Office the better its
publisher will be able to make it for them.
The rival publisher who invests money
there does il, of course, with the expecta-
tion of profiting largely at the expense of
the one already established, and as one of
them must lose money where the patron
izing territory is so limited, it does not
strike us that the one who has made the
first venture, and by hard toll worked up a
moderately successful business, deserves to
go down because a competitor wants his
place. We have no knowledge of the new
publisher, and are under no obligations of
any kind to the other, and what we say is
entirely on general principles.

Political Notes.

1t looks like q permanent partnership
lican party.-New York Tribune.
Barnum is still considering "what
Lee and Jackson would do" and is
trying to do the same.-Springfield,I Ill.
Journal.
A good deal Of the solidity of the
"solid South" is already knocked out of
it, judging by the tone of the papers.
The people down there wish they had
to do it over again.-Troy Daily Times.
Barnum swore that Indiana was car
ried in October by Republican ''colon-
izers." How happens ir that the State
gives about the same majority for Gar
field that 1t gave for Porter ?-Buffalo
Commercial Advertiser.
1t Is not for any one to complain of
this result. Judicially considered, 1t is
fair. And we know it is honest. There
has been no fraud. The people, called
upon to announce their will, have made
a decision which all must obey.-Wash-
ington Post.
The consequences that followed the
elections will be dissolution of the two
solid sections now arrayed against each
other. How and by what means this
result will be accomplished will be
manifested after the meeting Of the new
Congress.-Memphis Avalanche.
The Republicans triumphel and Gar
field will be the next President. Any
attempt to reverse the result would lead
to civil war, and the Democrats, with
all their capacity for laundering, know
better than to risk the chances of a con-
flict on that issue.-BJston Herald, Ind.
The political contest just passed de-
cided this much in regard TO Democratic
papers-that they are not believed. II
the people had believed one-tentli part
the stuff told about General Garfield,
calculated to bring him into disrepute,
he would have overwhelmingly de-
feated.-Sunday Voice.
The Democrats are beaten. Let them
take the defeat like men. The Repub-
licans have undoubtedly done many
things to carry the country that will
not help them OH the road to Heaven,
but then there have been some practices
on the Democratic side not altogether
sain,ly.-New York Sun tDem.)
Cur Democratic friends do OF like to
admit that the people have rcjectei
Democracy, and SO they saddle every
thing on poor John Kelly. Bless their
hearts, they 90 not seem TO know that
the people do not like BourbOnisD, and
are determined that the solid South
shall not govern the country,-Albany
Express.
The South expected li;ile more frsm
Gen. Hancock's administration than il
will ask from Gartield's. We want
nothing more than simple, exact, alb
solute Justice. If n new President owes
nothing TO the South, he ut least owes
something to the country, and we will
be glad to see him cancel this debt by
giving us an administration rs fair aud
as just and as clean as that of Mr..
Hayes.-Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution.

Practical Economy.

In those days of rapid growth there
is 10 subject SO little studied as that of
practical economy. Men and women
school themselves to believe they can
not be happy unless they live up to the
modern IDEAS of extravaganza. Ualt y
century ago every mem Der of the family
was kept busy all the time In spinning,
weaving, cutting an making gar mcnts,
as we'll us in other labors now accom-
plished by machinery. Such a thing
rs idleness was the exception TO the
rule, and children grew up to industry,
good habits aud substantial worth. OF
cour.e, every age has its vicious socie'y.
and will have To the end of time. Labor
then was abundant, but the price paid
was a mere pittance in compar ison 10
that paid now, yet people prospered
and got along better aud with less COM
plaint than they do row. Forty CT
fifty cents were paid to day.lLborers-
the laborer working from sun to sun
and men resorted to no ''strikcs" to
force themselves into 4 better way of
living.
The times have greatly changol since
then. I.aborers now receive from one
to three dollars per day of ten hours.
They do not have to pay as much for
many articles of wear and consumption
as their ancestors, yet there appears to
be a continual strain with them To keep
square with the world. There must be
some other reason for their failure Than
simply lack of management. The most
careless must know that where only a
dollar per day is earned aud n dollar
| and quarter spent, there will be an
inabili Y to make ends meet. With
many the causes Of IA lure may readily
be known. They indulge largely in
beer and whisky drinking, chewing
and smoking. Many of our young
| people learn TO indulge in these filthy
and unhealthy habits, before they are
able TO earn the money to pay the ex-
pense. All these things require money
and n good deal of il. They are a con-
tinual drain upon the purse; hence.
when men find they are falling behind
in their weekly accounts, they are sure
to lay the blanc upon their employer
Tor not paying them better wages. They
claim it is u matter of course that the
employer should give more wages TO
help pay for "luxurics' that do them
no possible good, but much harm
i'm every way. The next resort is to
get up strike and stop work, thus
making their situation worse than be-
fore. The common laborer has hard
enough time to get along by spending
his money only for that which Is bread
for himself and family, but when he
hinges to his labor lot of damaging,
foolish customs, simply to crafty his
appetite, he makes his lot and that of
his family doubly hard. Life at best ia
warfare warfare even for the
perishable things of Garth, and when
we fail to make the best of it, we only
heap additional burdens upon ourselves
and render our situation harder than
God designed it to be. Even the ad-
versities of this life may be sweetenel
somewhat by the knowledge that we
wisely apply every advantage offered
us to keep ourselves and families in u
good, healthy, thriving condition.

Pen and SCISSORS,

Tom Hughes, otherwise "Scbool days
at Rugby" Hughes, says you can't buy
as much for a dollar here as You can for
a shilling In England. And then he
brought over an. English colony and
planted it i'm Tennessee. We reckon it s
all right, but We haven't time to explain
it.-Hawkeye.
The Omaha Bee contains more far
Western news than any other paper on
our exchange list. The efforts of the
publishers to draw immigration to that
fertile region, by circulating sample
copies of their Weekly among Eastern
farmers is commendable. The Bee is

wards his address to the daily Bee,

1t was on the Burlington railroad
train, and politics had given way to
theology, and the young man with the
turban hat had the floor, and was de-
nouncing the old fashioned idea of hell.

Mr.. Kimball, the eminent payer of
church debts, is fine looking man, tall
well-built. his dark beard just touched
with gray, a pair of the plcasantest
looking eyes you ever looked into, a
genial, hearty frank way about him
that fairly compels your friendship.
He is anything but a financial "bull-
dozer," but his pleasant manner is
backed by resolution, and the gift of
holding on, that can move a mountain
of debt. lie is an open, uncompromis-
ing foe to all useless indulgences, and
more than one minister of the gospel
has had his cigar and his church debt
put out at the same time by Mr.. Kim

Sarah Bcrnhart is great actress.
No one will attempt to deny this, and 1t
Is right that her talents as an artist and
actress should receive their merited
praise; but, as the Boston Herald point
edly remarks, "The line should be drawn
at the foot-lights." Her private char
acter is such as would subject person
in the ordinary walks of life not only to
the severest criticism, but among people
Of respectability to social ostracism.
As the greatest actress of the age she is
entitled to the admiration and patronage
Of the theater-going public. AS the
mother of four children, without ever
having had a husband, she is unworthy
of the least tocial recognition by the
American people.-Ashland Times.

THE increase of crime since the weather
has become wintry, and the fact that much
of it is done by tramps or Migrants, calls
attention to the lack of official enterprise
in enforcing the Tramp Law. Springfield,
Ohio, was, within the last week, fired in
three places in one night, and the dailies
chronicle unusual activity among the
itinerant fraternity.
