For years the Republicans have
boosted that theirs was the only party
in this country opposed to repudiatien
and in favor of the honest and faithful
payment of State and National obliga-
tions; and yet the great head and
chief of that party-the President of
the United States-is listt ming t !, the
infamous proposition to lend the inf1u-
ence Of the Administration and the
immense patronage of his office to
build up the party of Malone repudi-
ators in the Old Dominion, and only
hesitates to espouse their cause through
fear that he may not be able thereby to
secure a partisan advantage. This dill
lydallying with q aquestion of such vast
importaficeis fine commentary upon
the assumption of the Republican lead
ers and furnishes proof, if any were
needed, of the utter falsity of their
assertion that the Democracy are q
party of repudiators. The only State
which persistentIy refuses to pay its
just. obligations is, Minnesota. which is
overwhelmingly Republican, and the
only encouragement the Malone re-
PudiatSrs of Virginia receive, outside
OF that State, is given them by this
party, laying claim to all the piety,
patriotism, intelligence, integrity and
honesty in the land, and without
whose aid the repudiators don't stand
the ghost of chance for success.

OH, NO! Garfield didn't know aught
about Johnny Davenpert's effort to
bribe Senator. Strshan to vote against
Conkliny and Platt by promising him
the u. &. Marshalship of New York.
Such an act is an impeachable offense
and is quite important and necessary
that Crsdit bfobilier, DeGolyer Gar
field should deny that he had author
lied any one to enter into such viii
Iainous bargain. Johnny Davenport
will be remembered as the notorious
Federal Supervisor of Elections inNew
York City, who caused the arrest and
imprisonment of thousands of inno-
cent citizens of foreign birth. Though
the attempt at bribery is conclusively
proven and in spite of the denial of the
President, the scoundrel who made the
attempt at bribery will continue to re-
tain the confidence of the pure and in
corruptitle Garfield and to occupy a
high position in the ranks of the party

by young man named John Kinney who
lives ON Capner street just on the edge of
town, and who was coming in to ascertain the
cause of the uproar. Mr.. Gray informed Mr.
Kinney what the alarm meant, and AS they
thus stood for moment III conversation they
heard a movement in the garden of John

THE CREAMERY The farmers in this To-
plan and place for their creamery, but have
not given up the idea of having one located in
or near our place. Quite number of our
citizens, with majority of the farmers, are
proposing to go into the business at an early
day.
Committees have visited the creameries at
different places near here, and are satisfied
that it will pay, both for the manufacturer
and the producer, to have creamery. Tho
Carversyile (Pa.) creamery seems to fill the
bill as to plan OF working. If one is put in
operation here it would give our people a
supply Of the best butter, such as but few
places bave yet had-always fresh from the
cool cellar and right at hand for the table.
Such luxury no one would object to, and all
would be proud to say that Lambertyille is
noted for her excellent supply of butter.

ORIT UARY

With heartfelt sympathy we are called
upon to record the death of both the little
twin boys of our excellent neighbors, Mr..
and Mrs. Levi Cooper. They were born
June 10, 1880, and were both fine, promising
children until they arrived at the teething
period, when both began to dwindle. Their
names, respectively, were Jerome Munford
aud Oscar Burney; called for the tw o dis
tinguished members of the GAINESVILLE. bar
bearing those names. Jerome died on the
alst day of January, 1881, and Oscar
fingered on until May 10th, when he ceased
to suffer, and was carried by the angels to
join little Rooney at the beautiful Gate,
Jesus said ''Suffer little children to come
unto me- and yet how reluctant we are to
surrender to His will in this respect. But
now, as their sweet little forms rest In the
old churchyard at Blooming Grove, their
spirits rest in the bosom of Jesus; and our
neighbOTs sorrow, but not as others who
have no hope, for if we believe that Jesus
died and rose again even so those also who
sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him.

An excellent feature of the New
Edition of Webster's Unabridged
Dictionary, just issued, is the New
Biographical Dictionary, in which
are given the names of nearly ten
thousand noted persons of ancient
and modern times, with brief
statement of the dates of their
birth and death, their nationality,
profession, etc. This is designed
for purposes of ready reference, to
answer the questions which often
arise as to when and where certain
persons lived, and the character of
their achievements. 1t contains
many names of persons who are
still living, and the pronunciation
of each name is given.
