EDITOR STARK COUNTY DEMOCRAT:
DEAR SIR Thinking that perhaps
our friends outside of Plain township
might like to hear something about us
once again, drop you few lines to let
them know we are still in the land of
the living, Notwithstanding our defeat
politically. The Republicans had a
grand blowout and torch light procession
here Tu sday night, which is something
new for our usually quiet village, They
had quite profusion ofBanners with vari
GUS inscriptions, such as Keno 329. The
man that is elected will be inaugurated."
Which we suppose was intended to con-
vey the idea that the man elected four
years ago was notinaugurated on which
subject every Democrat will a. rec with
them, After a grand parade through
the streets, the crowd adjourned to the
school house, which was comfortably
filled with Republican voters, ladies,
boys, and last, but by no means least, -
Democrats The speakers were Helden-
brand of the Probate Office and George
E. Baldwin of the Stark County Bar.
These gentlemen completely swept the
Democratic party out Of existence, Gen
Hancock coming in for a considerable
portion of abuse. Democrats there found
out for the first time that General Han
cock was a very obscure soldier, until
his nomination for the Presidency and
then only known because he was the
candidate of the red handed rebel De-
mocracy. The war Democrats all voted
for Garfield they said. Some of our
Democratic ex-Union soldiers would
like to know what command these "vir-
tuous" and patriotic orators belonged to
in the time of the Unions peril. What
were they doing to stop the raids of
Mosby and his followers? Or were these
"loyal" worthless WORTHLESS ay-at-homes

them, the one has been holding fat Office,
appearing to be professional in that re-
spect He and his family may not be the
IF. c; but may be L. o. F., leading Off
cial family. The other gentleman is
known as prominent member ofthe Bar,
as well as being prominent as Republi-
can stumper never listened to him in
stump speech before but had heard of
him as not being troubled with bars.
He also talks temperance as Henry
Ward Beecher and other virtuous men
do. These pinks of official and other
propriety were the oracular orators on
this occasion.
Republicans enjoyed the display and
Democrats looked on with the best of
humor.

entitle such member to receive all the
tracts published by the Society. There
are no other conditions or obligations of

A MAGNIFICENT APPARATUS, LECTURE AND
EXHIBITION WORTH ATTENDING.
"The second and last exhibition of the
wonderful powers of the microscope as
displayed by the practical microscopist
and lecturer, Mr.. Z. B. Swift, of Milwau-
kee, Wis, at Rowse's Hall, on Wednes-
day evening, was well attended by old
and young.
Many Of the most minute visible, and
some that are not visible to the unassist-
ed eye were shown with thorough dis
tinctness as they were enormously mag
nifed and thrown by rejecting lenses on
cloth field twelve feet in diameter,
showing how perfect and beautiful are all
the objects of nature when closely OBJ
served. Even the commonest forms Of
vegetable and animal life were invested
with an interest that held those present
not only attentive, but well pleased and
instructed. The kidneys in an advanced
state of 'Bright's Disease was exhibited
and certain cure named for the same.
The exhibition and lecture were GER
tainly excellent in every respect, and we
bespeak for them the hearty welcome in
other places, which they richly deserve
from the educated as well as the unin-
formed.
Mr.. Swift is a pleasant and ready
speaker, evidently understanding the
subject of his remarks and the manipula-
ton of the microscope in all its forms,
thoroughly. Being also dealer of many
years experience in microscopes, teles-
copes field and other glasses for optical
purposes, thereis scarcely an instrument
for the aid of vision with which he is not
practically familiar and expert.

"SOlemn Suggestions"

Profanity goeth before fall, but pro-
family cometh after it.
Love thyneighbor as thyself-you may
want to borrow her washtub.
Look not upon the wine when it is red
1t might be colored with aniline.
Riches bringeth sorrow, but most men
are brave enough to stand that kind OF
grief.
"A rolling stone gathers no moss, y
and You'll never see one roll unless some
one rolls it.
When a man calleth thee fool never
smite unexpectedly if he weighs more
than you do.
Be punctual and you'll be prosperous
always on hand when man wants to
pay you bill.
Take trouble and castor oil philo-
sophically-remember that when re-
quested to do so sure death is the result
of replying ''never."
Business before pleasure-always pop
the question before you attempt to hug
your sweetheart.
Never go TO sleep in church and snore.
You might wake up your neighbor in the
next pew and spoil his Sunday nap.

A TOpsy Turyy Tree.

To gather crop of apples from the
roots instead OF the limbs of tree would
seem to encourage a hope of the possible
III gathering grapes OF thorns or figs of
thistle" yet John Meiners, of the town
of Wauwatosa, is the owner of an apple
tree the roots of which now present evil
dences of an abundant yield this season.
While driving into the gentleman's
premises, off Grand Avenue, yesterday,
in company with Engineer Teller, the
attention of reporter for the Sentinel
was attracted by novel sight at the first
turn i'll the carriage way. There inside
the residence enclosure, on level with
the top of the fence pickets, is circle of
the greenest of leaves, about thirty-six
feet in diameter and as flat as n floor.
That's a rare sight" replied Teller,
when the reporter questioned him in re-
gard to it. 81 am of the opinion that it
is the only tree of the kind in this or any
other country.
"a tree?" queried the reporter.
eyes that is an apple tree. Twelve
years ago Mr.. Meiners planted several as
an experiment, and that is the only speci-
men he cared to keep. He uprooted sew
eral saplings, cut them a foot or two
above the roots, and replanted them by
sticking the cut end in the ground and
making the roots serve as branches.
Nature seemed to humor the distiller's
whim. The saplings took root and the
roots above grew rs limbs. The trunks
are stunted by this process, as you will
observe Meiners found that the low
limbs covered too large an area and was
obliged to reduce the number of his
trees"
An odd sight presented itself when the
reporter stopped to view the shady side
of the large fiat of foliage and fruit. Mr..
Meiners' children had built circular ia
ble about the trunk and placed their toys
upon it. The distance from the ground
to the limbs shooting out Mt right angles
with that trunk is about four feet. The
limbs are now propped up at their outer
extremes to keep them from swapping
under the weight of fruit they bear. Mr..
Meiners takes pride in exhibiting this
rare tree to all visitors to his grounds and
it certainly is deserving of the attention
of the curious i'll such matters.

The law abiding people of this COM
munity were startled a few days since,
and the greatest Indignation prevailed at
an editorial article in contemporary,
denouncing the practice OF hugging IN
the public parks. The article went on
to show that the placing of seats in the
parks leads to hugging, and the editor
denounced hugging in the most insane
manner possible.
Great heavens, has it come to this?
Are the dearest rights of American citi-
zens to be abridged? Let us call the at
tention of that powerful paper to clause
in the Declaration of Independence,
which asserts that "all men are created
free and equal, endowed with certain
inalienable rights, among which are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
When the trainers of that great DECLARE
ton of independence were at work on
that clause, they must have had in view
the pastime of hugging in the parks.
Hugging Is certainly n pursuit OF hap
piness. People do not hug for wages,
that is, except on the stage. Nobody is
obliged to hug. 1t is sort of sponta-
neous combustion, as it were, of the
feelings, and has to have proper condi-
tons of the atmosphere to make it sue
cess. Parties who object to hugging are
aid, usually, and are like n lemon that
has done duty in circus lemonade. If
they had job of hugging they would
want to hire man to do it for them. A
man who complains of little natural
soul inspiring hugging on back seat in
a park, OF an evening, with fountain
throwing water all over little cast-iron
cupids, has probably got a soul, but he
hasn't got it with him. To the student
of nature there is no sight more beauti-
full than to see flock of young people
take seats in the park, after the sun has
gone to bed in the west, and the moon
has pulled heecy cloud over her face
for veil, SO as not to disturb the wor-
shippers. A couple, one male and the
other female, will sit far apart on the
cast-iron seat, for moment, when the
young lady will try to fix her cloak over
her shoulders, and she can't fix it, and
then the young man will help her, and
when he has got it fixed he will go off
and leave one arm around the small of
her back. He will miss his arm and
wonder where he left it, and go back
after it, and i'll the dark he will feel
around with the other hand to find the
hand he left, suddenly the two hands
will meet, they will express astonish-
ment, and clasp each other and be SO
glad that they will begin to squeeze,
and the chances are that they will cut
the girl in two, but they never do.
Under such circumstances a girl can ex-
ist on less atmosphere than she can when
doing II washing.
When, i'll strolling through the parks,
you run onto case of sporadic hugging,
instead of making noise on the gravel
walk, to cause the huggists to stop it,
you should retrace your steps noiselessly,
get behind tree and see how long they
can stand it without dying.
1t is claimed by some that young peo-
pie who stay out nights and hug, are not
good for anything next day. There is
something to this, but if they didn't get
any hugging they wouldn't be worth
cent any time. They would be all the
time looking for it.-Pcck'S ML,oaukee
