OHIO AND ALL.

The OPINION OF AN OLD AND Elk.
PERIENoED POLITICAL EDITOR
BACKED UP BY PRESIDENT, CABI-
NET AND GOVERNORS.
The B. so. Red Book has become
the standard textbook ON elections
and each year grows in popular favor.
That it is deserved is eYinced by the
unfagging enterprise manifested in its
preparation and publication. The lat
est exhibition of a determination to
meet even the most exacting demand is
the issuing of the Ohio election less
than month following the election in
that state. Ordinarily those who are
prone to studying the official figures of
political contest have to wait for
months before receiving them in COM
prehensive form, and then do all the
comparative figuring themselves,
Here is the B. & o. Red Book for Ohio
not only with the election results in
every county tabulated in the clearest
manner, but comparison with past re-
suits all figured out and explanatory re-
marks which are of the greatest inter-
est. AS specimen edition of the Red
Book the contents are worthy of note.
The Presidential vote by counties for
1876 and 1880, with majorities, losses
and gains, total vote, etc.. while the
side-notes give q summary of all the
Presidential elections in the State since
its admittanee into the Union.
The Congressional vote of 1878 and
1880 by counties and districts, with
full details of the changes made by the,
new reappointment. The Gubernato-
rial vote of 1888 compared with that
of Secretary Of State 1882, majorities
gains, ETC., and side-notes covering all
possible data as regards results. Com
parative table showing Democratic vote
for Governor, from 1877 to 1888, show
ing gains and an interesting study of th
Democratic vote as compared with the
vote for the prohibition amendment.

his father, connected with the history of the
Revolution. The family belong to good old
Dutch stock. and trace their history from Jan
Van Arsdale, of Holland, who lived in 1911.
Much romance surrounds this historic name,
but whatever of fiction there may be in its
earlier records, the services it has rendered
in the infant struggles of the United States
Republic place it upon the honored roll Of
patriotic citizenship.

Elizabeth, N. J. His name is Joseph Fl.
Dresser, Belgian by nationality. He says
| he has tasted no food since the 18th inst. and
will continue to abstain from any nourish-
ment for forty days. The reason for this
protracted act of self denial is, he says, for
the benefit of science, and to show my faith
in God" Faith without works being dead,
think that Mr.. Dresser may be able to survive
his forty days fast, by which time, probably,
he will arrive at the conclusion that he has
made great ass of himself, without placing
science under any obligation to him.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.

The Kenosha County Board of
Supervisors adjourned last week to the
first Tuesday in January next. A
large amount of business was trans
acted. Among the unfinished bust
ness were bills for legal services, most
ly in connection with the tramp
law" The bill of the Sheriff, we un-
derstand, falls little short of $4,000,
and the bills of two justices of this
city, unitedly, amounts to over $500.
The magnitude of these bills will
strike taxpayers unpleasantly, but it
is presumed the charges are rendered
according to law; at least they must
be taken as legal. unless shown to the
contrary. County and town officers
are apt to charge all the law permits !;
if there be a legal remedy to reduce
the bills no doubt the board will avail
itself of it.
The Board of Supervisors have been

LUTHER ANNIVERSARY IN
SALT LAKE CITY.

The Salt Lake City tribune contains
an interesting account of the 4OOth
anniversary of the birth of Martin
Luther. The occasion seems to have
been one of much Importance; there
were several speakers; the opening
address was made by Rev. Frank T
Lee, who gave an account of the cele-
brated Luther monument in the city
of Worms, Germany, which he visited
during his tour on the continent q
few days ago. His address, as re,
ported in the Salt Lake Tribune, con-
tains much valuable information.

He is christian and a teacher in the

trict Court, decided that under the act
of Congress he could not become a
citizen of the United States. 1t was
expected when Congress enacted that
villainous law that China in turn
would exclude our citizens from the
Empire, but China had too much
decency to return evil for evil.

They don't know just what

a combination of pains and

Hon. Augustus G. Dodge died at
Burlington, Iowa, on Tuesday last,
which place had been his home the
past fifty years. He was better known
in Wisconsin forty years ago than
in later times. de was the son Of Gen.
Henry Dodge, the first Territorial Gov
ernor of Wisconsin. At a later period
the father and son were both at the
same time members of the United
States Senate, the son from Iowa and
the father from Wisconsin. A similar
case never happened before or since.
Augustus G. Dodge was born in the
South and partoolz much of the fiery
temperament peculiar to those early
times. If we mistake not, he was one
of the seconds in the fatal Cilley duel,
at Washington, which created such a
wide sensation many years ago. He
always belonged to the unterrifed +"
class of politicians.

There are young men who spend
their Sundays around the saloons, who
would much regret if the fact were
told their parents. But few of these
whose sensibility has become so blunt
ed Chat they would not dislike to have
publicity given to their names. No
young man should frequent any place
where he would feel disgraced to have
it made known. The way to ruin for
young men is to spend their hours in
saloons on Sundays. There is no ex-
cuse for such worse than waste of
time. Churches are open free to all
on Sunday; books, magazines, papers
and the best of reading matter is ac-
cesslble to every one. On every side
are avenues to useful knowledge open
to the young men of city and country.

IN City Hall, Prescott, Monday
January 8, 1888, and the mem
bers will be "sworn in," as the
saying goes, by His Honor, G. G.
W. French, Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. City Hall, the
place of meeting, is large frame
building, owned by 6. w. Curtis.
1t is on the west side Of Granite
creek, surrounded by handsome
dwellings, almost in the pine
forest which surrounds Prescott.
Granite creek is crossed, at City
Hall, by safe foot bridge.
Dropping into the building yes
terday forenoon, we saw Mr.. Joe
Curtis and other mechanics fix
ing the place. The walls of
both houses display new paper;
the "hOuse" is not quite SO large
as it was two years ago. The
lobby of the council is just as it
was during the last session. A
new committee room has been
made on the north side of it.
The aisIes, or walks, of both
houses will be covered with car
pets, so as deaden sound, stoves
and lamps are already in place; a
huge pile of wood is in attend
ance and, SO soon as Mr.. Geo. S.

Says the PA onix Herald: The

ticn in the right direction when
il recommends to the legislature
provision for establishing work
shops in the penitentiaIy at Yu-
ma. We clip: -
1t is apparent to every citizen
of this territory that the way Of
keeping prisoners confined at
Yuma is entirely wrong. and
should be remedied. To do this
it is necessary that wise legisla-
ton be had in the premises. An
appropriation will be in order for
the establishment Of shops for
the manufacture Of such articles
as are needed In the territory.
BY thus doing prison labor may
be utilized and the prison made
self-Supporting. A good wagon
and carriage factory should be
one of the first things started, as
it would pay from the beginning.
In no part of the United States
C IN such wagons and carriages be
made as at Yuma, owing to the
dryness of the atmosphere which
takes all the Gampness from the
timber, hence no shrinkage rem

tires, bands. etc. We are told
that there are excellent carpen-
ters, biacksmiths, wheelrights.
shoemrkers, ETC., etc, confined
in the prison at Yuma, who
would rather be employed than
idle, and ii is the duty of the

thing which will result benefci-
