WE learn that the Farmers Aid
Association is in a most tlourishinr
condition with lis membership grow
ing every day. This enterprise de-
serves the calm consideration of cvc-
ry citizen in the county, because it is
a home enterprise, and rs an insul-
"nce society, is free from every objec-
ton we have heard advanced against
other mutual insurance companies.
Now is the time TO join, because rs
the organization increases in age and
numbers its membership fee will in
crease also. Every farmer and his

WHEN fellow in Texas wants an
Office he ain't ashamed TO ask for it.,
as the following card, which we copy

plainly proves. The card, which is
signed by the candidate, says: II am
a candidate for the office of District
Judge of the Eighth Judicial Dis
trict. If elected / promise the people
to save their time and taxes by dis
patching the business of the courts as
rapidly as possible" We rather like
the style Of this candidate. He don't

comes out boldly and tells the people
he wants Office over his own sigma

get it too.

Great Britain'S Tidal Wave,

In the parliamentary elections held
thus far in Great Britain, the Liberals
have made net gain of forty seats,
and the Home Rulers of three, making
a change Of cighty-six votes in all.
Further elections arc expected to iu-
crease the Liberal gains. The sccptrc
has been wrcstcd from the hands of
Bcaconsticld, and the Conservatives
arc remandcd t" the position Of a
minority from which they emerged in
1871 by victory even more brilliant
than this just gained bv the Liberals.
The result was unexpected to most
OF the politicians. Bcaconstield had
hoped by raising tho issue of Irish
home rule to rally England around
his ministry and thus moro than bal
ance losses in Scotland and Ireland.
But the depression of business not
loss than the cloqucnce of Gladstone
upset the willy prcmicr's plans. It is
pity that death had not spared Bca-
constield this humiliation. His risc
was unparalleled in British politics,
and his enemies attribute it more to
jngglery than to real statesmanship.
They will now assert that their iudo-
mcnt was sound.
Ofcoursc, according to the incxora.
bic custom of the British Government
Beaconstleld and his cabinet will re-
sign, and tho Queen will invite some
Liberal leader TO form cabinet. It
Is not known whether Earl Granville
or Lord Harrington will be the new
premier. Mr.. Gladstone, when de-
feated in 1874, expressed a determine
tion to retire from politics. He has
been prevailed upon in tho present
instance to represent Midlothian. and
it's thought from this that he may
entcr tho cabinet. He is undoubtcdly
the leader of his party; and whether
openly or not will, to large extent,
dictate its policy. Queen Vic. likes
Deacons1icld and dislikes Gladstone,
and shc doubtless mourns over the
perversity OF The ''dear people,"
