WE understand that Mr.. Dezendorf re-
ceived about one in eight of the $4,000
votes cast for Congressman in the Nor
folk (Va.) district. The regular Repub-
lican candid ate, Libbey, received about
four to his one, and the Democratic can
didate three to his one. He says the
Administration did it all. We think it

Celebrating 10 His Pain.

A Norwich Democrat had painful experience
on the night of the election. While carrying bar
res to feed the Waller bonfire he got one over his
head, and when he attempted to east it into the
flames he threw himself in with it. Between
helpless inebrety and the tightly fitting barrel,
he was unable to get out of the fye. After about
two minutes of rousting he was pulled out by
friends. The skin was completely charred from
his face, and he was otherwise badly burned

mill In ArIZOnR.

Salt lagoons are met with in several places in
Apache County, Arizona, the principal one being
near the line of New Mexico. About 100000
pounds are taken yearly from this lake, and with
proper facilities IL could be made to produce an
almost unlimited supply. The salt is precipi-
into shallow water, and the crystals shoyeled
in. Thus the supply for cattle raisers in Apache
and portions of Yavapsi is obtained, in addition
to the large quantities required for the working of
silver

THE Southern people are now divided
into Bourbon Democrats and anti-Bour-
bon Liberals. The few so-called Republi-
cans there, who only hate a Democrat
after he leaves his party, are virtually
Democrats. The Northern man who,
directly or indirectly, shows preference
for Southern Bourbons over the Southern
opposition to them is good enough

would be vastly more entertaining if many
little stories could be told. 'He was
always consistent Democrat" says the
writer Of the obituary of politician whose
death was recently announced in another
State. He might have added, on Demo-
cratic authority, that in his more active
days his name on the committee to receive,
sort and count votes in a convention was
equivalent to a nomination. With a chair
man to sustain him, the fact thata a eOnyen-
