The preralance Of Crime.

The frequency of robberies and MUIR
ders, accounts OF which are in the columns
Of every daily paper, shows an increasing
tendency TO crime and lawlessness that
may well excite apprehension and terror
among all well disposed people. yelling
ion has % far been favored, scarcely ever
having been the scene Of the terrible
tragedies which are now almost daily oc-
curing dangerously near rs. Murders,
single, double, triple and quadruple are
common, while robberies and outrages on
the defenseless and helpless are so fire.
quent that II may not be regarded as nerv-
Gus and whimsical that q feeling Of inse-
curity is taking hold Of us all, so that we
hardly dare to give ourselves to sleep,
trusting to the fimsy defences Of our mod
ernly constructed homes, and we almost
wish for return of the days when men
shut themselves in castles surrounded by
bafflemenfs and walls and secured from
wariike enemies by the moat and draw
bridge, and gates and doors Of iron. Win
dou-blinds and doors Of iron and
combination locks may yet be necessity
70 protect our possessions from robbers
and ourselves from midnight assassins;
or TO post sentinels to guard rs in our de-
fenseless homes
We have one watchman who Is trying
unaided to give us what protection he can,
but considering the large increase in the
criminal class and their growing boldness
and desperation, he should be assisted by
one or. two others. 1t is utterly impossi-
BILE TO sufficiently guard widely scattered
population with such police force as we
have, and we believe the time has now
come when IL should be increased. Let
MS not commit the folly OF locking the
door after the horse Is stolen or Of waiting
until we have been made the victims of
some terrible crime before We awake TO
the necessity Of increased protection
One robbery of bank or store, one incen-
diary fire, OF the costs of detecting and
Furnishing criminals in one case might
easily amount 10 more than the expense OF
an extra policeman or two for year; be-
sides, we owe to the nightwatch employed
such aid as the duties and dangers Of his
ofice require.

To Those Indebted to us.

We have just put into our office at large
expense, a new improved Campbell Print
ing Press, by which we are enabled to do
all kinds OF job printing, more rapid and
better work. Our delinquent subscribers
and all those knowing they are indebted
to us, whether for large or small amounts,
will greatly oblige us by calling and set
Ting their accounts. Wages, material,
merchandise everything in which we have
accommodated them, costs us money, and
we are obliged to be prompt in meeting
all those obligations with cash. 1t needs
no argument to show the justice of our re-
quest.
