The County Election.

Our readers will remember that the
election for county and district officers
takes place next Thursday. There are
number of candidates aspiring for
the different offices, thus enabling the
voter to select good and true men.
We hope none but competent, honest
men will be elected, and it is the
duty of ever voter to see that his bal
lot is cast for no other kind of man.
1t is his duty to himself and the pubs
lie at large, and he cannot afford to
neglect it. Referring to our announces
ment column, we find only one candi-
date for Clerk of the Humboldt Law
Court-Mr. NJ. ri. johnson. He has
filled the office long and we'll, and Of
course will be returned.
For County Court Clerk, we find
the names of John d. Carne and ii.
q. Pearce-both good and true men,
and both very popular with the PEG,
pie. Either of them will fill the of.
flee honestly and acceptably.
For Sheriff, we find only one can
didate-J. H. Hefey, the present in :
cumbent, and, we think, the best Off
Ger III that position the county has
had in many years. He deserves and
no doubt will receive the compliment
of reelection.
For Register, we find the names of
Jack Jones, the present excellent in.
cumbent, Henry ODaniel, b. Stellar
and Sam. H. Thomas. Mr.. Newton
has withdrawn from the race. The
others, we think, are fully competent
to fill the Office well. The reader will
take his choice of the lot.
For Trustee, the present incumbent,
j, w. Ramsey, and John l.. Fly are
candidates. Both are good and true
men, and the county revenue, we
think, will be safe in the hands of
either.
For district magistrates, Messrs. N.
j. Hitchcock and NJ. l.. Martin are
the only names announced. AS two
are to be elected, We think they both

A BaVisher Lynch ed.

A st. Paul, Min, dispatch of the
2Sth ult. says;
About one o'clock this morning a
party of masked men appeared at the
Jail in Minneapolis and demanded the
surrender to them of Frank McManus,
tire tramp who ravished and brutally
mutilated the four year old child Nina
Spear yesterday. The Sheriff was
made prisoner by the mob, but re-
fused to divulge the whereabouts of
McManus. The mob then made a
thorough search of the Jail, breaking
open every cell on the first floor, with
out finding the prisoner. They then
assembled TO the floor above and repeat-
ing the ceremony, breaking open cell
doors until McManus was found. The
latter was then taken to the house of
his victim, where he was fully identi-
fled. Without further ceremony the
mob took McManus to large tree in
front Of the high school building and
hanged him from limb at AIS this
morning. Before McManus was strung
up, he confessed to his horrible crime.
He WIS tramp, twenty-six years old,
and came. from Boston. The excite
ment ran very high during the night,
both in Minneapolis and st. Paul, and
public sentiment is indisputably with
the men who thus administered Justice
to the author of one of the most afro
cious crimes in the annals of Minnes-
Ota. The child victim is in a precari-
Gus condition, with doubtful chances
OF recovery.

The saloonists are bravely toeing the
mark. We understand that eleven OF
the number in Ravenna will pay the
tax and give bonds. While there may
possibly be a few less saloons in town
the effect will be of no account in re-
ducing the quantity of beer that will
be consumed, and those who continue
in the business will have monopoly
of it and be the gamers thereby, for
they will reduce the size of their
glassas, or charge five cents straight,
instead of six for a quarter. IF the
former, the man who formerly drank
two glasses will now consume three.
In any event the consumer in the end
pays the tax. 30 what does all the
bash amount to about the saloon keep
er being compelled by the Puddle bill
to bear his share of the expense of sup
porting the paupers he makes, even
if it were true that he is the cause OF
the greater share of the poverty in the
land, which is as far from being estab-
lished as is the constitutionality of this
so called lew. The real cause of much
of the poverty which we see around
US on all hands is the very principle
embodied in this wonderful act-par-
tiality for the wealthy-which char
acterizes a large share of the legisla-
ton of this country of boasted equality.

Democratic Births and Deaths.

The Albany Journal thinks that,
according to the political status of the
last twenty years, while many Dem
ocrats die, few are born" and that the
"great mass of the young men of the
country, whatever may have been the
political status of their fathers, reach
their majority as Republicans" AS a
dull joke this might have passed but
for the appeal to statistics. The Wash
ington Post comments on it as follows:
Clap-trap of this sort cannot be re-
lied upon to deceive the wayfaring
man, though fool. In 1860 the DEM
ocrats of the United States pOlled for
Douglass and Breckenridge 2,222,671
votes, the Republicans for Lincoln l.
866, 1852, Democratic majority of 1885,
319. In 1881 Garfield received 4, ,442, $50
according to the American Almanac);
Hancock, 4, Az, ,035 q Republican ma
jority OF 9l5. Take from Garfield's
supporters at least zoe, 900 negros, who
had no vote in 1850, and the Democrat
ic majority in the Union would have
been at the last Presidential election
nearly three-quarters of a million, ard
against half that figure in 1860. APP
pIying these facts to the Journals
the conclusion seems ire
sistible that, in the last two decades.
the sum total of elderly Democrats who
refused to die was greatly in excess of
the number of young gentlemen of
proclivities, who, during
the same period, attained their major
ity."
