ON TIE HALE E

Those of our readers who are
acquainted with the difficulties sur
rounding us for nearly three months
past, will not DO surprised to see
the LEADER appear this week as a
half sheet Since the last week in
August we have had all our type
setting aud press work to do, and
during a major portion Of the time
had to impress friends to manipu
late the ink roller for us on press
days. Then with our last issue
much campaign timber had to lie
taken down and slowed away, tick
cts printed, and other extra work
to be done, which challenged all
the efforts which our already ex-
hausted frame could meet.
But we feel assured that Our
readers have but little appetite this
week for other than election re-
turns, and those we present as full
ly as possible.
Next week the LEADER will be
in trim again, when expected help
will enable us to keep pace with
the demsn Is OF Our patrons and ca
ter to their appetite for fresh, crisp
news touching our local and gener
al interests.

ON reading the result of the
election in White Oaks, as pub
lished in to-day's paper, some may
be lei to suppose that the editor OF
the LEADER was a candidate for j.
F., on Tuesday, and defeated there
for. Such would be in error. 1t
has long been known that the pre-
sent incumbent OF the Office, W. f.
Blanchard, would not be a candi
date for recollection, tor the reason
that the office did not pay expeRs
es, and when the office was going
begging for an occupant we We're
waited upon by Messrs Brothers
and Walters, and those gentlemen
representing in their persons the
Republican and Democratic par
ties, on the understanding that
there should be no political contest
we consented to stand as a candi
date. Subsequently we were nom
mated as such candidate by a non
political convention. and tickets
with our name thereon were print
ed accordingly. On the evening
before election we learned IN; t
fierce opposition to our election W 8

in upon our flesh, when we with

President Blaine
Triumphant to the
White House.

Every night since election, save
last night, we were in receipt Of
dispatches, via TT. Stanton, thro'
our friend j. G, Delaney, ESQ
AS we yer holding our paper OPP
en- expressly tor the latest teie-
grams, our disappointment last
night was keen.
We cannot, with the returns be-
tore us, holler very loud, but we
were charged, and have to fire off
our exuberance. Perhaps a day
or two's delay might dampen our
hopes, but this Saturday morning
finds us sanguine that the bitter
challce containing all that is EN-.
bodied in the person of Cleveland,
and the character of the party and
principles which he represents, will
not be pressed to our lips.
The whole Pacific slope went
solid for Blaine.
AS yet no Northern State has
absolutely broken the Blaine chain
but Connecticut, which gave a De
mocratic majority of about 1000.
Indiana is close, presenting proba-
bility to Republicans, and possibil-
ity to Democrats.
All hopes now center on New
York. lis electoral vote would
elect Blaine, and put Clevelan4
within 6 votes of election. If In
diana has gore tor Blaine, and
New York for Cleveland, the cleo
ton will he transferred from the
people to their representatives in
Washington, in which event the
elevation of Cleveland would be
but a matter Of form.
The N. Y. Commercial Advert
ser-a Cleveland paper-in its is
sue of Thursday evening, said
Returns from New York con
tlnue to come IN slowly. and until
the last has been received it will
be impossible to say with any GER.
tainty which party has carried the
State. In any event the result
will be close. The report that the
New York Tribune comedies New
York to Cleveland, is officially de.
med. On the contrary the Tri.
bune claims the State will give
Blaine a fair plurality when all the
returns are in, and that Blaine il
elected President"
Both parties claim New Jersey,
but certain it is the Republicans
have carried both branches of the
Legislature, which secures to them
a u. S. Senator.
We hail with delight the news
that Maj. VIM. Warner was elect
ed to Congress from the district OF
which Kansas City is the p~ulsating
centre. True merit has found its
reward, and the Democrats of that
district did well in dropping their
nobody and elevating a kepubli-
can giant.
In a word-if we're whipped, we
don't know it. Hurrah.

Vomiting Babies.

There is an absurd idea that vomit-
ing babe is therefore healthy. 1t is for
tunate, perhaps, that such, when fed,
as too many are, with various indigesti-
BILE articles, can so easily throw off such
Objectionable food; yet it would be still
more fortunate if mothers were more
judicious and would not use such food.
The vomiting is simply TO rid the stom-
ach of offending matter, this being the
easiest and safest means of disposing of
such indigeStiblc food. 1t is also true
that the mothers milk when she is ex-
cited, or, still worse, is in anger, or
when she has used improper food, may
not agree with the little stomach, that
stomach preferring nothing at all to
such milk, which then is thrown off as
means of avoiding unfavorable results.
Or it may be true that when the babe is
very thirsty, or unusually hungry, more
is taken than can be easily disposed of,
the only safe means being its election.
At this time the vomiting is easily af-
fected, not materially injuring the
child, though it would be better not 10
impose this extra labor, giving only
what is needed, remembering the small
size of the stomach at birth, hold
ing about a wine-glass full. But
when the food is improper; or the
mothers milk has been made unfit for the
stomach, the vomiting is the result of
sickness, and then it is not as easy a
matter, or not as safe. 1t should al
ways be regarded as hint, either that
the food is improper, or that too much
has been TAKEN Golden Rule.

The Hampton Normal and Agricul-
tural Institute at Hampton, Va, held
its anniversary exercises on Thursday,
May p. and the reports made on this
its sixteenth year show good degree of
prosperity. There have been on its
rolls the past year five hundred Negro
and one hundred and twenty Indian
stadents-the former preparing to GO
South to teach their people, where
nearly thousand already trained in
this Institute have established them
selves and are doing great work in
the colored common schools, especially
of Virginia and North Carolina. OF In
dians seventy have already graduated
and gone back to their homes in Dakota
and In the Southwest, and are employed
at the agencies as teachers, mechanics,
farmers and hired hands. Not over
seven have gone back to Indian ways,
and eight have died. On the whole the
record of educated Indians who have in
the past three years returned from
Hampton to their homes has been salts
factory.
The school has been built up since
1868 at cost of about 800, 600; and is
free from debt 1t is now seeking an
endowment for its annual expenses,
which are $4,000 in excess of aid re-
ceived from the Government. 1t is a
private, not a public, institution, duly
Incorporated, and is aided only in a
moderate degree by the Government,
which helps the Indians only.
The Trustees are making a special
effort to secure sixteen thousand dollars
to build new dormitory for colored
girls, two hundred in number, who are
now greatly crowded and suffering for
want of room. General S. c. Arm

Students work out on the farm, or in
the shops, the most of their expenses.
They have earned this year over $780,
900. The whole six hundreds little
less than one-half are girls-are literally
working out their own salvation. This
feature of sclf-help commends the school
to the confidence and interest of all
good citizens.
