Fire!

AS will he seen in another column,
the village council have called spe-
cial election to see if the voters will
anpropriate a sum of money to pro-
cure apparatus for the suppression of
fires. This is p matter which de-
manas the earnest attention and con-
sideration of every voter. and espe-
cial'y of those who own property
liable to destruction. There is one
large saving to be taken into consid-
Grafton beside ths preservation of our
homes and buildings, and that is in
the matter of insurance, the rates of
which are very high. It would be
we'll to consult with the insurance
companies and ascertain what ap-
paratus would lie the be t in like
places to our own. and the secure
ment of which will reduce the rates
of insurance. We earnestly urge the
council to secure all information pos
sible in regard to this matter, and
have it in presentable shape. so that
the voters can understand it fully.

The Newspaper in a Farmhous


People who live near the great
thoroughfarcs, where they have &C.
cess to two or three dailles and a half
dozen weeklies, do not fully arpre-
ciate the value of a newspaper. They
come. indeed, to look upon them as
necessities, and they would as cheer.
fully do without their morning meal
as their morning mail. But one must
be far off in the country, remote from
the ''maddening crowd,' to realize
the full luxury Of newspaper. The
farmer who receives but one paper
week does not glance over it's columns
hurriedly, with an air of impatience,
as does your merchant or lawyer. He
begins with the beginning and reads
to the close, not permitting anews
item or an advertisement to escape
his eye. Then it has to be thumbed
by every member of tie family! each
one looking for things in which he or
she is most interested. The grown
up daughter looks for the marriage
notices, and is delighted if the editor
has treated them to a love story. The
son who is just about to engage in
farming, with am enthusiasm that
will carry him far in advance of his
father, reads all the crop reports and
has Il keen eye for improved modes Of
culture. The younger members Of
the family come in for the amusing
anecdotes and scraps of fun. All look
forward to the Gay that shall bring
the paper with the hveliest interest,
and if by some unlucky chance it fails
to come, it is a bitter disappoint-
ment. One can hardly estimate the
amount of information which paper
that is not only read but studied, can
carry into family. They have,
week by week, spread before their
entail vision a panorama of the busy
world, its fluctuations and it's con-
Germs. It is the poor mans library,
and furnishes as much mental food as
he has time to consume and digest.
No one, who has observed no " much
those who are far away from the
places where men most cOngregate,
value their weekly paper, can fail to
join in invoking a blessing Oil the in
ventor of this means Of intellectual
enjoyment E.rchdnge.
Democratic Defalcations.
The Globe-Democrat, of st. Louis,
sums up Democratic defalcations as
follows:
State of Missouri, (paid
back on compulsion). .... 5000, 900
State of Arkansas (white-
washed) ................. 100000
State of Tennessee. -. 100000
State of Alabama. .... 100000
City of Louisville. ........ 100000
Grand total ........... 81, $50: 900
With fifteen Democratic States yet
to be heard from.
And also pointedly observes else.
where:
The s'solid South is a daisy at
treasury emptying.
New England can take lessons from
the solid South in the matter of
treasury defalcations.
Its a cold day in these times
when some Democratic State treasu-
rer doesn't walk off with the slack of
half million or so. Reform is nee.
essary.
If this thing keeps on, the people
will soon sigh for return of the
old carpet-bag regime. Say what you
please about the carpet Dagger, he
was far less avaricious i'm his steal
ings than the average Southern Dem
Ocratic treasurer.
