Women said a successful woman
jeweler, can do anything and ev-
erything nowadays. When l first
had to earn my living l thought
myself fortunate when l secured a
place behind a milliner's counter.
Well, | sold bonnets for a year, and
the store was closed. Then L
painted furniture, if you will be-
lieve it. 1t was hard to learn and
earned $l2 q week instead of 81.
But l soon quit that for better en-
ployment, and was hired in a jew
elry establishment. There l learned
the trade, ! am as independent as
you are. New occupations for
women are yearly springing into
being. The latest things I've heard
of are landscape gardeners, bird
fanciers, architects, junk dealers
and pawnbrokers. Women do all
these things now Indeed, I'm
afraid bad time is coming. Wo-
men do so many kinds of work that
men will all become dudes. The
fine, idle creatures these days GER
tainly are not women.

There is a popular saying thai
nothing succeeds like success,
and there is little doubt that the
point is well taken. Men are APT
to herd upon certain ground as cat
tie; given a watering place that is
patronized by one or two prominent
people, and straightway every one
who can or cannot afford it, only SO
that they be considered prominent,
flock to this same place. 1t is hu-
man nature to long for notoriety
men and women vie with each 9th
er in manner of living, equipage
and clothes, each striving to out
do the other, and IN some way to
become notorious in comparison
with their less fortunate acquain-
tances.
There is another peculiar phase
with regard to certain kinds of sue
cess; it may perhaps best be styled
the success of self esteem; not nee
essarily self-ceit, butsomething that
approaches not infrequently very
near to it. Careful observation will
convince any one that diffident and
timid people rarely get beyond the
little circle where they happen TO be
thrown. They do not, as a rule,
outgrow their surroundings or be
come small faction of what their
abilities seem to demand of them.
This after all is a species of self
esteem, in that the person is always
conscious of himself and is apt to
rate his abilities and attainments
far below their value. Let this
man forget himself from some ex-
citing cause, and he is often a sur
prise to himself and his friends.
Again we have the clustering emp
ty man who talks a great deal and
says very little This class are
usually very ud-mouthed-as
sumo all in error but themselves,
and challenge every statement of
other peoples experience on gener-
al principles. Once in a while some
careful reader or stubborn fact''
man comes along, pricks hole in
their balloon like a statesman and
a disastrous collapse is the result.
But wisdom does not come by ex-
perience with this kind, and we
soon find them up again and laying
down the law. 1t is a curious char
acteristic Of the great majority of
people that they will take a man at
what he seems to be rather than at
what they really believe and know
him to be. Hence we see modest
merit in a corner while bulldozing
and brag are generally the undis-
puted oracles of many fields of in

The State Auditor.

A PRIVATE circular fell into our
hands on Tuesday evening which
says that THOMAS j. WEST, the Su-
Perintendent Of the Peniten tary ,se ems

canvass for nomination for Auditor.
OhiIe drawing his salary from the
State Treasury at the rate of about
$3.50 per month. The basis of his
ct0in1 TO the position which he now
asks, is that he is d" farme7' and that
the Democratic State Convention OF
1880 did a great wrong in failing to
re-nominaIs him for Treasurer.
Those persons who have known tnis

"claim" is uDfounded in fact. They

there are hopes enterr aimed thst we
csn defeat them. They are in trou-
BILE. Their organ bewsiled their sit
uation last week. Remember we
have everything to gain and nothing
to Lose. They have had control of
the county for twenty years. and
have public record which will not
bear a close scrutiny. The county
is in debt. and we ere paying yearly
tax Of l,S cents on the hundred
dollars. This is outrageous. Who
is responsible ? Why, the Rerubli-
can party. The soldiers claim they
never got the money from the coun-
ty which it promised them. Who
ls responsible2 The Republican
party. The county lie believed by
many to be run by Ring whose
headquarters are here in Kiugwoo
with branch concern probably at
TerrS Alta. Who are the members
Of this Ring2 Why. Republicans Of
course.
These are issues the Radicals will
have to meet this fall in this county.
Can they do 80 in a manner that will
satisfy the people2 This remains to
be seer.
Let the Democrats organize in every
hamlet town and district in the coun-
ty, and we can make the campaign
interesting for our opponents. Our
Howesville friends lead and now let
other sections follow, remembering
that "tte victory is not to the stroaR

The Democratic Nominees.

TIE Democratic Convention Lut
an impregnable ticket before the
people when il nominated GROVER
CLEVELAND. Of New YORK. for Pres
ident and THos. A. HESrRIcKs, OF
Iudiaus, for Vice President. Every
where throughout the country the
Democrats received the news of the
Nominations with great rejoicing
But the enthusiasm ia not confined
solely to the Democratic ranks, for
hundreds of prominent Republicans
in different sections OF the country,
and especially In New York. have
been swept from .heir party moor
ings by the food o! public sentiment
in the tickets favor, and express a
determination to support it at the
coming election.
GROVER CLEvELANDs political ca
reer dates from the year 1865, when
the Democrats nominated him for
District Attorney of Erie county,
New York. He was defeated by a
email majority, but 10 1870 the Dem
ocrsts elected him Sheriff oil the
county and in 1874, Mayor OF the
city of Buffalo. In the frst elk
months of his administration, by re-
form methods, be saved to the city
nearly million dollars. When a
duty presented itself he never shrank
from its performance especially II
the people were to be the recipients
Of its benefits. Thus he eudsared
himself to the Democrats, and gain
ed the resrect and confidence of Re-
publicsns. In 1882 he was nomina-
for Governor of the Empire State,
and the unprecedented majority by
which he was elected, was only an
index TO the general feeling of the
people Of that great State as to the
ability and fitness Of the man whom
they thus honoied.
When the National Convention
ton met at Chicago to nominate
candidate for the highest aud most
honorable official position within the
gift OF any people, it looked to the
State Of New York to produce that
candidate, and CLEVELAND, a prac-
teal Reformer, and a foe to every
form Of corruption, was selected as
the Democratic nominee for that po-
sition, At once the Independent
and Republican newspapers that felt
unwilling to support BLAINE's nom
instion, came out boldly for the
Democratic Reform Governor, and
promise him their support in thrs
Presidential convass.
o. the man who occupies the sec
ond place on the ticket, nothing but
words Of praise can be uttered. His
public record is untarpisbed, and
his private character is above re.
Trosch.
With such ticket ~ The field, and
standing as 1t does upon a sound
Platform, there il no doubt but il
will be elected IN November BY very
handsome and decided majority.
