In the woods on grassy" lake, Kentucky.
They managed to keep the larder well sup
piled with game and brought home with
them good report of what Gun be done in
duck shooting on the wing or on the head
or on the back-it the game will stand

The rank and file of the republicans
were, to some extent, excussbe fer refusing
to acknowledge for several days last week
the election of Cleveland. The vote 10
New York was large and close, and their
leaders on the ground gave them most pos
tive and authoritative assurances that
Blaine had carried the state, and was
elected. Many Of them accepted these as.
surances in good faith, and on their relis-
bilty thousands of dollars were staked and
lost. Among the large sufferers in this re-

and George Robinson, also drops a thous.
and or 80 into democratic pockets.

Arthur for it more than any other living

cial Importance. The Tribune concludes
by saying: "The ofHce-holding class will be
able to judge of the prudence Of their
course if democratic influences shall deter
mine the distribution Of government patron
age Just SO.
The boys should drop the "hoodlum
racket aud act like gentlemen tomorrow
and all other nights, OF course to elect
democratic president in new sensation to
all Of them. 1t has not happened for more
than a score Of years, scarcely in the mem
DRY Of the rulers of the "old guard" and
trine extra cxuberance Of spirit may be ex-
pec,ed but should not be permitted to crop
out in the disgraceful manner Of last week
Private residences, private property and
personal opinions are bound to be respected
under democratic rule, therefore boys,
young and old, blow your horns, ring the
