There are several persons in this
vicinity confined 10 their homes by
sickness.
Miss Lille Couey, formerly OF this
place, but now Of Tangent, spent last
Sabbath with her parents at Oak
vile.
Mr. Robert Bauford and family.
are visiting relatives at Halsey, and
travelling over the country prior to
buying farm.
Mrs. Martha MeIlree, Is conAued
to her home by Congestion Of the
Bronchial tubes OF her lungs, and Is
very weak and may not live long.
We understand that Miss Jennie
Baker of Shedd, has been engaged
to teach the OakviIle school this
spring, which speaks we'll for her
success in the school room.
One day last week as Porter Slate,
was crossing the CalIpooia on bridge
which he had constructed for gaining
access to a part OF his farm, the
creek had risen during the night and
the bridge was covered with water,
which was deeper than Mr.. Slate
thought 1t was and he was soon In
surrounding water. The wagon con-
tanning three plows and horses, were
swept down the stream by the cur
rent. The horses succeeded In gain.
ing the bank which they were unable
to climb with the wagon attached to
them and were soon drowned. Mr..
Slate barely escaped a watery grave.
The loss will be very severe one for
Mr.. Slate. The amount of which we
are unable to state.

THE COLOR LINE.

A company of colored troops in
charge of Brigadeer General Claussen
of Charleston Soth Carolina attended
the Inauguration of Cleveland. The
expenses of this colored company
Were paid by white democrats In
Charlston. Such prescription and
intolerance on the part of the whites
of the south towards the colored peo-
pie should not be tolerated. Let the
bloody shirt once more be brought
out.

Now it is claimed that Jeffersonian
simplicity would mean extravaganza
In these days, as Jefferson's diary
shows that during his first four years
% President be bought $500 worth
of wines ard liquors, and entertained
in the style of the day on lavish
scale. That, however, is misleading
evidence. When Jefferson was Pres
ident it took at least a barrel of rum
to make even a New England church
social a success.

SP0ILs.

It is a favorite diversion now of re-
publicaa newspapers to expatiate at
great length upon "spoils OF Office"
which, they say, democrats so eagerly
seek after. They moralize upon the
great harm that IS to befall the country
because they say, that Office is all the
democrats want. For downright, un-
blushing, Phariaica! can't and shame
less hypocrisy, commend us at once to
these so-called goody, goody republican
newspapers. Do they suppose that the
country has so socn forgotten how rig-
idly the republican party has enforced
and enlarged the rule that "to the vict-
or belongs the spoils," during the last
twentv-four years? Could it be posi-
bic for any party to enforce that rule
with greater strictness than republicans
themselves? Have they not studiously y
aud persistently excluded democrats
from every Office of consequence?
Have they not for the last twenty -four
years endorsed and commended this rule
Are their lips not now closed against OBJ
jecting to a rule which they have SO
faithfully, willingly and earnestly en-
forced during the period mentioned?
With these canting bypocrites, the rule
was good one so long as it could be
used to turn democrats cut and put
republicans in Office, but their moral
nature rebels now that it could be used
TO turn republicans out and put demo-
Gratis in. Away with such canting
hypocrisy.

THE CABINET.

President Cleveland has a happy
faculty of doing things in ship-shape.
The selection Of his cabinet is no ex-
ception to the rule:
Thomas +. Bayard, of Delaware, one
of the noted statesmen of the day, has
been selected for Secretary of State. He
is noted for great purity of character,
maintaining the reputation of his father
and grandfather, who both served in the
United States Senate before him. The
people at large, and the Democrats in
particular, are fortunate in having this
office filled by SO pure and able man
as Mr.. Bayard.
Augustus II. Garland, Senator from
Arkansas, is appointed Attorney Cen
eral. During the war he served first
in the lower house and later in the SEN
ate of the confederate congress. His
ability as lawyer, ranks among the
FIRST in the senate. In 1874 he was
elected Governor of Arkansas, and
served in that office two years with
great credit to himself as we'll as the
people who elected him. At the ex-
piration of his term in 1876, he was
elected to the United States Senate aud
reelected in 1888. His ability as q
lawyer has given him national ropu-
tation. No better appointment could
have been made.
L. Q. G. Lamar received the appoint
ment of Secretary OF the Interior. He
served in Congress prior to the war, but
after hostilihes begun he volunteered
in the confederate service when he serv-
ed as Lieutenant Colonel of Mississ-
ippi regiment for short period, after
which he was sent to represent the con-
fsderacy at st. Petersburg. At the close
of the war he was sent to congress, aud
has been conspicuous figure IN the
legislation of the country ever since.
He is one of the ablest, as we'll as most
conservative leaders ie the south, and
wiIl labor with great zeal to restore the
true fratcrnal relation between tho
North and the South.
William C. Whitney, of New York
City, is the Secretary Of the Navy. He
is not as we'll known to the country as
the other cabinet officers, but he stands in
the very front ranks of the legal talent
of the country. The Ore3oaia" says,
''hs will be q valuable adviser to Cleve-
land, for few politicians better than he
are qualified to 10 a sound cabinet ad-
Yiser."
JUICE Wm. C. Eadicott, of Mass, is
made Secretary of War. He is direct
descenient of John Endicot., who was
Governor of Massachusetts, colony in
I64A. He was u whig in the days of
that party, but united with tie Demo
cratic party in about 1856. Hs was
the Democratic candidate for Governor
Of Massachusetts, last year. The APP
pointment meets with general approval
from all parties.
WO. Z. Villas, of Wisconsin, Is ap-
pointed Postmaster General. II, is
lawyer of rare ability. He is the most
eloquent speaker in the Northwest. He
was president of the Chicago Conven-
ton and chairman of the committee
appointed to notify Cleveland Of his
nomination.
Daniel Manning, of Albany, New
York, is Secretary of the Treasury. He
is editor of the Argus, a Dem ocratic
newspaper of that city. His ability and
integrity are unquestionsd.
Altogether the cabinet is strong
one, and one that We verify believe will
secure a wise administration.
