Republican u sunday.
During the week a representative oil the
Republican interviewed the leading real 60.
tate dealers, with view Of Learning the
character and extent Of the present de.
mand for real estate and the outlook Tor
the spring. They uniformly expressed
themselves as having full faith In the up.
ward tendency Of the market; none Of
them had any small houses for rent, but
could let almost an unlimited number at
remunerative rates. Business houses Ia
eligible locations we're asmuch sought after
as was manufacturing property. Steady
inquiry for purchase Of desirable building
lots offers free at On advance on last years
prices. Property that went begging at
low figures q few months since is now
sought after at fair rates. without emu.
mefating various lots that have been sold
already this year at large advances over
last years quotations, we mention sale
on Friday last Of a niece at Sl7 500 which
vas bought for SIC. 900 less than eight
months ago.

The Ipnusnes OF the Har'I Ip Politics.

The InauencR Of the HaF'I ~ Politics.
From the Cleveland Lead r,
In several Of the State capitals an idea
prevails that anything can b. done, and
those who make and unmake the laws
come to have q disrespeCt for law. Nomi.
nations for Legislative positions are too
often obtained through unworthy methods,
aud elections olt-timesareseCured thr ugh
disreputable appliances. Candidates re
ported 10 have "bar'l" are in demand for
Senators, and for all Offices disposed Of by
votes Of Legislatures. "DIshonssty Of two
kinds" says the New York Chriaian Ad
vOcate, lis practiced by many; the dis.
honesty that offers and takes pecuniary
compensation for legislative action, and
the dishonesty that does wrong for par.
tisan and personal ends. The former,
when exposed, iF condemned the latter IL
regarded with Indifference, and sometimes
praised"
Even in the capitals OF the smallest
OF States, as at Washington, tho lobby"
or the "third house" as II 10 sometimes
designated, has become permanent and
Il Il lential institution, Large sums are
GonBtautly expended TO convince the
Judgments Of Legislators, the means being
furnished by great corporations, or com
biDations OF men In pursuit OF fat con-
tracts or having other axes to grind. Such
people not infrsquently purchase leglsla-
lion as they would buy dinner. We do
not mean TO assert that all legislators &C.
Cept bribes, or that this money In all
cases passes directly to those who enact
the laws. Considerable Of 1t 10 absorbed
by the lobbyists and long line Of log.
rollers.
II is no pleasant task to ventilate a sub
ject OF this character, but II evils and
abuses exist, even In high places, they
must be laid bare, and, II possible, correct
ed. II the fountain be unclean the streams
must be impure. All men are more or
less imperfect, and oil are subjects oftemp.
tation In some form, but wherever an evil
exists II should be extirpated. II is time
that we 60 back TO the purer Pge OF our
Republic. The virtue and morality Of oul
people and the safety Of our institutions
demand this, II we are what we profess to
be, a Christian nation, then we should no
longer tolerate evils and vices which will
eventually destroy our good name and
wreck our happiness. The evils 10 which
we have made reference, and others
equally demorAlizing, are not yet deeply
seated, but that they NAV be uprooted and
destroyed. The Advocate well observes
that public and private morality are in.
seperably connected In Republic, and
they flourish or decay together" This lie
a thought, which, by way Of conclusion,
we desire 10 impress upon the memory Of
all good and soberminded citizens.

In view Of the TACT that over $50 600 oil
the expenditures that figure in the annual
abatement OF the city for 1880 were unusul

not appear necessary to create an addI-

fire alarm telegraph, the special police and

saved this year-or at least most Of it.

OBITUARY.

On the 9th day of Aug. 1881, Georgia l.. Linam, the sweet babe of Nj. c. and Mollie Linam, departed this life at Rus seilville, Ark. Was born Jan. %, 1878, in Lawrence county, Tenn. Like s beautiful flower, sweet and fair, Geor- gia came to earth to make glad the hearts of her fond parents, but scarcely had the bud of life began to open when the frost of death came and she droep- cd and died. Weep not fond parents your sweet babe is freed from the cares and trials of earth and now basks in the sunlight of glory near the throne of God to live aa angel throughout vast eternity.
 She died as gently as the dew, That falls on the opening flower; And died AS sweet and true
 As ever grsced sarth's bower. I wiped the death damp of her brow, And parted back her hair; And when I kissed her cold, cold check I prayed l could die. We laid her in the silent grave,
 And sadly left her there To sleep the long, long sleep of death, Although so sweet aKd fair. And still we will travel on and seek A place where free from care, We will meet our little one!
 Yes, oh yes, we will meet above.

THE PRESIDENT,

The Prosident's condition, as re- ported by telegraph from Long Branch is even mere favorable each s uccseding day, and 1t begins to look as if the fortunate turn in the tide would bear the distinguished patient on to ultimate recovery. He takes increased quantities of food, the con dition of his blood is better, snd the discharge from the wound is more healthy. Four of the physicians-- Drs. Hamilton, Barnes, Woodward and Reyburn, and Mrs. Dr. Edson, have been discharged from the case. and tho remaining physicians, Drs. Bliss and Agneu are confident, and every bulletin issued by them is most cheering. The President has been able to converse with his Cabi net on business, and the members 0 it, in view of the Presidents cenva- lescence, have concluded to take a recess. So 1t appears that after all the trying suspense of the last ten weeks, Mir. Gsrfsld's great vitality and stout heart might bring its rs ward, and the nations prayer not be ip vain.

 TWO GURDEEERS HUNG,

We are informed that Messrs. Taylor and Bruce, c. Yel. county, were both taken from the Dardaneile jail on Saturday night and hung. This is s terrible precedent and opens the door for unauthorized and arbitrary violence and merits the condemnation of all good law abiding citizens. The long delays by the courts, the very many techni> calities of the law so common and in- variaby resorted to for postponing the trial of criminals, the injudicious and too frequently extended clemency of the pardoning power of the executive, the many escapes from the tails of the country, together with the wholesale delivery by the sheriff or guard (the very officers of the law whose duty 1t was to keep secure and not to liberate) from the Ozark jail so many men and prisoners who had in cold blood mur- deree Burgess James in Yell county, entailing in addition to this horrible and atroeious deed upon her citizens, a very large, heavy and extraordinary bill of costs in their prosecution. all of which has doubtless for the reasons and causes enumerated been the ineen- tive to action of those engaged in this objectionable and arbitrary tragedy and which it is said from rumor WAS composed of some of the very best and heretofore law abiding citizens of Yell county. Until different course shall be pursued by the courts In giy- ing spesdier trials, the abandonment of technicalitiss resorted to by attor- neys for delays and postponements. and less extension and ciemency of the par doning power of the executive of the state, with more rigid care and safe keeping of prisoners by officers of the law, whose duty it is to secure and not liberate them, we need not expect a correction or abandonment of the great ly to be dsplorsd evils Of mob violence and lynch law.
