It Is announced that the discovery and
successful working Of the petroleum
wells in Germany are likely to reduce
the profits Of the oil companies IN this
country to a very large extent The ex
ports from this country to Germany were
last year over 100000 gallons Of re-
fined oil and crude petroleum, but it is
believed that Germany will, for the
future, be able at all events to supply her
own wants, and, in consequence, much
lower prices are expected here.

Editors Press and Bonner:
There are floating through the county
various umo Of disahection n uis'
satisfaction among the Democrats. II Is
even said that efforts are Icing MADE to
| run an Independent ticket-that direcI
oyertures have been made to Republicans
70 that end. Can these things be true!
Remembering how many and how RI
| diculous reports filled b air during
our late primary election, which upon
investigation proved in the majority ol
cases to be without any III
! truth. I nave cause to give ilttle cfe-
! deRce to reports. Neverchcless SO 'Ie-
| duently do 1 hear these reports OF moe
pendentism that l cannot retraln from
! some expression of warming. IL mas
nassed almost into an axiom that III this
/ State, with our condition of affairs, ana
our experience, Independence inevitably
leads to Ranicalisn. The line IS, or ne
| cessity, so sharply drawn here twlNl
Democracy and Radicalism that there
can I've no half way ground. Hence he
who cuts loose from the Democratic par
ty drifts, in spite of himself, into the ke-
publican party. An Independent there.
fore becomes a traitor to his party mt
race. So true is this. and so often has 1t
been proved to be true, that | need NOT
dwell upon it. And so vivid are the
recollections Of all that we suffered undcr
Radicalism that it seems to me TO be SUI
ficient to mention it, to recall our people
to the danger they encounter ny talhPer-
ing with it in any shape or form.
There is another danger greater per-
haps than IndepcndentiSm, because less
open. Friends of defeated cahuioatHS
threaten to scratch certain of the candl,
dates on our County ticket. This would
be most unfortunate. Everybody ~h"
ran in that race agreed to stand by, the
nominations. Representatives oil [
the parties which ran in the primary race
are on the ticket. Suppose the friends Oh
the n party scratch the. representatives
of the other-and the latter retallate ov
scratching the friends of tn" former,
where will 1t end? What is to prevent
the Republicans from running their own
straight ticket, and electing it?
I do not believe that Independentism Is
more than a threat rs yet. l am not WILL
ling to believe that it has taken shape
and Conference. And before 1t does, in
the name Of the peace and quiet we
have enjoyed and are now enjoying, ana
of the great prosperity which that peace
and quiet have brought us, | beg any or
our people who entertain the idea OF In

which such a course must produce. II

We know that there are persons who
would be willing to hold Court over
somebody's store room, or in somebody's
gin house, and then con6ne the prisoners
in the village guard house, and thus save
the Jail and Court House expense. There
are others again who would require the
bonded officers to keep their money and
papers in their pockets, or in a borrowed
safe, aud it is also certain that there are
still q large class who would be willing to
cut down the fees of the Judges and the
Solicitors to half the present pay. There
are also many men whothink the present
pay of the old county Offices would be
reduced sufficiently to pay the new Off
GERS. There are yet another class of men
who think the officers who would accept
one-third of their present pay in Able
Vile county, are hard to find. There are
others again who think the above figures
are all wrong. But 1t should not DO for
cotton that the Supervisors of Registra-
ton, the Auditors, and tho Treasurers in
no county receive less than $500. tt.
