THE Democratic authorities of Helena,
Ark, about election time forbade public
meetings, alleging the order to be necessa-
~ precautien against the spread of small
pox. The effect was just what it was in
tended to be-namely, to prevent Rcpubli-
can campaign rallies. In pursuance of the
plst to throw out Republican voters, the
voters-that is to say the negroes-were or
asred to &c directly home from the polls.
Because of this ordinance prohibiting assem-
blages Judge Caldwell, of the United States
District Court, very properly decided recent

lena. The hollowness of the smallpox pre-
tsnse is now revealed in dispatch sent to
Judge Caldwell by leading white citizens of
Helena, of both parties, telling him that
thsre is no small pox save at the pest house
outside of the city limits, that the schools
are open, and that there is DO danger. There
was NO more danger on election day amonth

A Man with a Bracelet.

1t is no concern Of mine what men wear.
Women's dress is my topic. But / must be per.
fnitted to say, casually, that it makes me sick
to see man with bracelet upon his wrist.
Only once have been made to endure the
nauseous sight. 1t was at the Fifth avenue
theatre. The offender was pretty, sissy young
fellow in an evening suit that evidently owed
much of its shapeliness to padding on the
shoulders, If not to lscing on the waist. The
bracelet was a wide band of gold color and en-
amel and WAS casped directly under the cuf.
He had no idea of being ashamed Of the femi-
nipity which he was displaying, but repeated
ly rested his hand on his head in way to ex-
hibit his bracelet.

Now that the war in Egypt is over and
the country is at peace, the British taxpay
ers are beginning to turn their thoughts to
the length of the bill and to the manner Of
its payment. Sanguine friends of the gov
ernment profess themselves confident that
the entire expedition has not cost more
than fifty million dollars, but it is estimated
In other quarters that at least twice that
amount will be needed to pay the piper, who
has led Arab such merry dance, and the
teachings of experience are that the higher
estimate in such cases is most likely to be
correct. Parliament has decided that India,
for some reason or other, must bear part of
the expense, but under the most favorable
circumstances the taxpayers hand will have
to 60 deep into his pocketif the deficit is to
be supplied with ready money.

The Water Works.

Lastiweek we hoped in this issue to give
our readers an account of tho test of the
system of water works which we then so
fully described, as it was then thought
everything would be in readiness to have
the test come off by Thursday of this week
at the farthest. Mr.. Mac Walker, the in
ventor and patentee of the pumps, and
Mr., Ayrault, of the Michigan Pipe COM
pany, arrived in the village Monday
evening, with the expectation that the
test would be made this week. Tuesday
steam was raised and the pumps startaA
when it was found that the mains put in
this spring, from where Mr.. Hess left
off, across the railroad track to the turn
towards the pump house, were defective
where the sections of pipe joined. This
was owing to the fact that the pipe had
laid out all winter and had started bad
ly, and also to the fact that the collars
used were defective and had been re-
jected by Mr.. Hess, a fact Mr.Eyrault, who
had charge of laying the mains this
spring, was not aware of. The result
was that before a stest could be had this
portion OF the pipe had to be taken up
and relaid. Mr.. Walker run the pumps
sufficiently to show that they were all
right. He run them up to 100 revolu-
tiOns per minute and succeeded in get
ting on 50 pounds pressure, nOtwith-
standing the leaky joints, when the plug
in the L to connect with the the main on
Huron street, when laid, was forced out.
Mr.. Walker was very well pleased with
the working of the pumps and says they
are among the best he has put in. We
reaf letter from the superintendent of
Jhe water works at MuskegOn, in which
he S. eaks in the highest praise of the
Walker pumps in use there, saying that
"m' nny con!d not induce them to dis
pense with them, that they saved half
the fuel, three-fourths of the oil and all
the worry" The defective portion of the
pipe is being relaid and we have no
doubt our citizens will have an OppOr-
tunity next week of witnessing test of
the wOi ks.

Teachers Institute.

One week from next Monday, August
21st, is the date announced for the OPEN
ing OF the Teachers Institute for Che
bopgan county. The Importance of
these Institutes is no longer questioned;
wherever they have been held their in
fuence has been good. Experienced ed
ucators will be present to conduct the
institute. The success of, and the bene-
fits to be derived from, the institute de-
pend upon the teachers Of the county.
II they turn out and give their time and
attention, its success is assured, and
they themselves cannot help but receive
benefit. from their attendance. Those
who intend to make teaching their pro-
fession, or expect to have the instruction
of youth intrusted to them, cannot af-
ford to neglect the opportunities afford
ed by these Institutes. 1t is to be hoped
that the teachers of ChebOygan county
will appreciate the benefits to be deriv-
ed, and make special effort to be pres
ent during the entire session. The in
stitute will be held in the graded school
building in this village.

Accident tn.

A serious accident happened at Free
dom last Thursday. A team of horses
attached to a wagon loaded with stone
became frightened and started to run,
knocking down Mr.. Proctor, and two
wheels of the heavily loaded wagon pass
ed over his body inflicting serious if not
fatal injuries. In response to call,
DR.. C. A. Perrin went up and rendered
what surgical aid could be given. An
examination showed that some Of his
ribs were fractured, and that he was in
jured internally. Friday he was brought
to town and taken to the residence Of
his son-in-law, Mr.. Geo. Tull. His con-
dition is quite critical, and fears are en-
tertained that the accident will prove
fatal.
Another man at Freedom had foot
badly mashed the same day by having 1t
ruu over by car. He was showing a
car, when one in the rear followed up
unawares co him and caught his foot,
and only for the heel Of his boot would
have cut it completely of. As 1t Is, the
foot is badly crushed.
Yesterday, at Duncan City, little son
of Ephraim Smith fell, and his head
struck the corner of a stick of timber
making serious cut in his forehead.
DR.. T. A. Perrin dressed the wound and
made the little fellow as comfortable as
as possible.

Daily Republican., 1882-04-13

For the benefit of some of the sore
heads who are so greatly troubled about
the large and steadily increasing cirsu.

endeavor to give a few of the many
causes that tend to its success. In the
first place Wilmington is a manufac
turing and not commercial city, end
the majority Of her citizens are indus.
trious, hard working mechanics, toiling
from seven o'clock in the morning until
six o'clock at night, to earn their daily
bread. These men have no time to read
a morning paper, and after their hard
days toll they prefer to take and read
an afternoon paper that tells them
what is happening here in their own
city, in preference to long articles and
manufactured IL letters of what is sun
posed to be taking place somewhere
else, and in which they have not the
slightest interest. The workingmen of
this city are intelligent, and show by
their actions that they support the
paper that does everything in its power
to advance their interests. The business
men, with most singular perverse.
ness, prefer to advertise in a paper that
has circulation of over six thousand,
to patronizing one with not half that
amount.
The REPUBLICAN is read daily by from
fifteen to twenty thousand persons, and
consequently is the best medium for
reaching the masses of the people This
fact is well-knOwn to the far seeing
business men and manufacturers of this
city, and when they want to lot the
majority of the people know what they
have for sale, or what Inducements they |
have to offer TO purchasers, they |
naturally seek the columns of the RE. |
knowing full well that even
if the cost of aIvertising is greater, it
will pay them better than to patronize
a paper that is only read by few, and
whose limited circulation, instead of in.
creasing, is beautifully growing less,
and causing its editors to have period.
