Personal AND POLITICAL.

The platform of the New York Demo
cratic convention indicates that Samuel
Tilden is laboring in the interest of him
self and reform.
Jennie June is responsible for the in.
timatiOn that President Arthur is likely
to marry, before the close of his admin
istraLion, the widow of a well-known
and very wealthy New Yorker, Mrs.
Marshall o. Roberts.
1t is pleasant 10 know that engage
ments of pressing nature have obliged
Mr.. Parneh to postpone his contem-
plated visit to this country. We trust
that the conditions which Just now rem
der his absence from Ireland impossible,
may be Indefinitely prolonged.
National Republican: Widowers
will be in the ascendency in Wash
ington this season, as the President is
a widOwer; the new British Minister is
also, and so is Mr.. Allen, the Hawaiian
Minister, BOW the dean of the diplO-
matte corps. There are also several
widowcrs in each house of Congress.
Among the senatorial widowers are An
thony, David Davis. and jones, of FIori-
ia Senator Ferry Is bachelor.
There are substantial grounds for
hope that the Empire state will fall into
line with Iowa and Ohio and score a
splendid Republican victory in Novem-
Der. 1t has apparently escaped the at
tention of the New York Sun and other
journals of the same political COM
plexion, which have already elected the
entire Democratic ticket, that while the
HalEbreeds and Stalwarts are tipping
their hats TO each other with the grt atest
possible urbanity, the followers Of Kelley
and Tilden arc glOwering at each other
over the chasm which yawns between
Tammany and Irving halls like strange
tom-cats through picket fence.

1t is rcassuring to learn that the New
York World pronounces the election of
David Davis as President pro tem. of the
Senate unconstitutional. 1t IS always
safe to tie TO a measure upon which
high Democratic authority passes this
fiat. The adversaries of the Union in
the late war, of which the World was
one, pronounced the effort 10 corerce a
state unconstitutional; they declar.
ed the issuance of currency by the gov
eminent as a means for furnishing
troops and munitions for its defense as
unconstitutional; they protested against
the emancipation of the slaves upon the
ground of its unconstitutiOnality; In
short, every measure which has been
employed TO strengthen and hold up the
hands of the men and the party who
saved the nation, has been voted uncon-
stitutional by the champions of the great
political organization which sought its

The friends of law and temperance are
rejoiced To hear of substantial victory
for.both at Wichita. Yesterday dis
patch was read in the State Sunday
School Convention in session in this
city announcing that there had been
seven convictions for the violation of
the temperance law in the district court
ut Wichita, and more were To follow.
That was one OF the first towns to per
NIT an open violation of the law, and
Il seemed for awhile that it
was next To- impossible TO gain
any Roadway in its enforcement. But
il seems now that tlAe determined efforts
of a few Temperance people are bearing
thesfruits of their work. We have the
law, adopted by a majority Of our PEG
pie, and to say nothing of the moral
phase of the question,it is TO the interest
OF all that it be enforced. Certainly q
handful of violators in each community
ought not to be allowed to override
the legal enactments of the law making
power of the state. The news from
Wichita will strengthen the hands Of th'
temperance workers wonderfully.

In view of the rapid disappearance of
timber in this country, the fence ques-
ton becomes an important one. The
Farmers Union has some interesting
figures which show what the fences Of
the country have cost. They furnish
evidence, too, that the present system of
fencing must soon disappear. Illinois is
said 20 have ten times as much fence as
the whole OF Germany, and it is claim.
ed that Duchess county, New York, has
more than alb France, Germany and
Holland. A few years since in South
Carolina the Improved land was esii-
mated to be worth $e0,O00,OO0 the
fences at the same time had cost $751;
100000. Tho annual repair is "A tenth OF
this. A calculation made some eight
years since placed the cost of the fences
in the United States at $500. 600, 600.
Nicholas Riddle, more than forty years
ago. said the fences IN Pennsylvania had
cost 100000 900. In Ohio they had
cost more than that sum, and in New
York only few years since they had
cost $I44, 100000. Some day fences viii
probably disappear. and boundaries viii

EDIToRs NEWS; Ia your issue oi
October IL, noticed al article under
the above heading, in which you are
liable to create a wrong impression on
the minds of your readers, especially
those that are not familiar with the
political history of this county.
In the first place yuu state that it has
been the rule for years by the Repub!i-
can party TO place a Welshman on the
ticket, and that the register OF deeds has
been accorded them nine years by the
party.
This is mistake and we do not un-
derstand how any one that is familiar
with the history Of the party should
make such u statement. The first
Welshman that was nominated by Re
publican convention was IN 1915. and
that for the lucrative q office of coroner.
AS a matter of course he was elected
and held the office one term. The next
nomination was w. j. Jones, in 1879, for
register of deeds. He was elected
and the Republican convention
last September said by its
actions that one term was enough for
him. THIS is the full extent of offices
that the Welsh Republicans, of Lyon
county, have received from the party
through the action of its conventions
We will admit that the Office of register
of deeds has been held for the number of
years stated, but not in succession nor
by the efforts of Republican conven-
tions. The Welsh people have always
worked and voted with the Republican
party, almost TO a man, and will yet
when there is principle at stake; but
we doubt whether they are christians
enough to fill that command: Whose
ever shall smite thee on the right cheek,
turn 10 him the other also" If they
will endorse the action of the last con-
vention we must give them the credit
for being perfect, "dO good for evil"
Your treasury receives large amount
of revenue from these people and it
is nothing but right that they should be
accorded at least one Office in the court
house. A REPUBLICAN.
