IL Oregon has elected Republican
Legislature, the Democrats will lose
another Senator. This is another reason
why the Democracy should not lose the
House.
= "It's always the last buyer who gets
the votes" said Mr.. Howard Carroll,
speaking Of the Southern delegates. He
was sorrowing over the fact that the Ar.
thur men got in their work first aud left
the field clear for the blaine bari.
= The Rock Hill Herald says:
About four years ago DR.. J. a. Glenn
extracted a tooth for gentleman in this
County, kept it ou, an hour and ten min
utes. long enough to put in two filings,
and then repIanted the tooth in the carl-
IS. II is as good to day as any tooth in
his head, and has never given him any
trouble. The doctor has since been sue
cessful in two other cases of the same
kind"
= The Republican platform points out
great many things for correction, and
promises many admirable reforms.
Common sense people will be apt to
inquire why these alleged wrongs have
not been righted, and why these com.
mendable reforms have not been accom-.
piished in the twenty four years in which
this party has held uninterrupted posses.
sion Of the Government!
A good amateur actor carried Q
satchel into q Baltimore groggery and
displayed contents that seemed to be
money to the amount of $4,000, at the
| same time pretending to be demented.
4 companion intimated to the rum seller
that the treasure ought to be taken care
Of and agreed to leave it in bis possession
| if he would hand over $500, as security.
But this must be your own money, for
| nothing in the bag must be disturbed, "
said the friend The sum was eagerly
advanced by the saloon man, who, Of
course, intended to keep the bag, in
which he subsequently found nothing but
worthless paper.
= During an Arctic exploration, Lieu
tenant Ray investigated the depth to
which the ground was frozen. He says :
81 dug an earth shaft thirty-eight feet in
depth for tue purpose Of testing the tenn
perature, and found, on calculation, that
| it was frozen to depth Of 800 feet. A
bucketful of the stuff was taken out OF
the shaft, when thawed out, separated
into earth and water, about four inches
of the latter standing on top. This
proved that il :he ground there were eve,
warmed sufficiently to be resolved into
its original parts, it would be found to be
quite incapable of supporting anything
on its surface. 1t is really frozen slush.
: The New York Herald says: There
will be an immediate development Of in
terest in what the Democrats will do or
the 9Th Of July. We have no doubt they
can easily win with Tilden's name at tht
head of their ticket. He is far more
popular now than lie was four years ago
1t is notable how the sense Of justic,
lives and grows in the popular heart
The fraud Of 1876 is more strongly resent
ed now than in 1880. Not only woult
Tilden secure all the Democratic votes
but large number of Republican,
would see in him q conservative, states
maDlike leader for whom they can safely
vote. His name will represent an open
ing, but still conservative, future pro
gress to new ideas and new policies ant
q healthful advance for the country
With Tilden at the head of their ticke
the Democrats need to be careful abou
the second name. Tilden would, W,
believe, live out his term if elected for
though his body may be feeble, his brnil
is clear; and history tells of many feeble
bodied statesmen besides Richeliu. Sen
ator Morton, of Indiana, dragged abou
with him for many years of most ener
getic and exhausting public service
body more badly shattered than that O
Tilden is. Governor Seymour was rigf
when he remarked to Herald reporte
some months ago that in his opinion
Tilden's bodily feebleness was no dis
qualification for the proper duties o
President
