THE Republicans are trying to hide
their many little family unpleasaninesses
by continually roaring about the disa-
greements among Democrats. But the
fact remains, with all their efforts to
hide the same, that they are dwelling
together in that millennial spirit of
bro:herly love that is supposed to char
acterize the members of the party of
great moral ideas As their convention
approaches the number of Republicans
who were never known to scratch, that
will take You to one side aud tell you,
"lf Arthur, the machine politician, il
nominated | won't vote for hiin;" or,
III the writer OF he Alul.isan letters is
nominated, | won vote ior him;7-the
numbers of such are continually increns-
ing. The recent heavy hroatlside
thrown against Blaine by Harper's
Weekly aud the New York EeeniHg Post
has doubtless had much to do with this
state OF feeling.

A New Race Track.

The Downey Signal says "There is
move on foot to organize company to
purchase land and improve it for race
track in the suburbs of Downey. We
think that such an enterprise would be
success since a great deal of attention
is being paid just now to the improving
of the horse kind. II we had good
track in this vicinity it will stimulate
stock raisers to new efforts to improve
their stock. The grounds back Of the
livery stable have been suggested as the
most suitable for the enterprise and can
be bought at very reasonable figures
now, but If it is not taken advantage of
shortly II will take considerable money
to buy ii, as property is rapidly advauc-
ing in this locality. Let not the golden
opportunity slip.

We join in the sentiment that the
Council did a wise and Just thing in
passing an ordinance prohibiting the use
of barbed wire fences in the city limits.
At night time these fences are positively
dangerous to all passers-by, as they are
well nigh invisible in the darkness. We
think only cold-blooded man will erect
such fence in town or city; and even
in the country they are u cruel contriv-
ance, as they intlict injury upon amin ais
cluselessIy.
