Prohibition in Terrell.

Now, that the general local OPP
ton bill is likely to become a law,
its friends are predicting an early
contest here. This question was
voted on and defeated in our
county about two years since by
handsome majority. However,,
the friends Of temperance claim
that reaction has taken place
and that this county can be placed
on the dry list. The people of
Terrell need not be surprised if
they are soon called upon again to
decide this question There is no
doubt but what local option has
grown in favor here.

Visitors to Atlanta

During the summer will find it Of
interest to inspect the jewelry house
of Messrs. J. p. Stevens y Co, the
largest in the Southern States, &C.
cupying, with factory and sales
room, an entire building, four floors.
The exhibition which they make in
Diamonds, Silverware and Art
goods is well worth a trip to sec.
This establishment has earned an
extensive reputation in connection
with the well known Stevens Pat
ent Watch which is made in their
factory in Atlanta, and is now sold
by preference all over the South and
many places in the North.
Do not neglect the opportunity
of calling on Messrs. J. p. Stevens

Since learning that the town
will not increase its water supply
for protection against fire, the in
surance companies have notified
their agents here to advance the

When the engine was purchased

the companies thinking that the
town would provide water with

Bond" talk has increased a
hundred per cent since Mayor
Cheatham telegraphed to Hon. O.
B. Stevens not to introduce the
bill allowing the council to issue
bonds. Some Of our citizens think
that the issuance of bonds by the
city would be bad policy,and they
introduce very plausible argu-
ment to support their opinion.
Others argue equally as plausable
that the issuance of bonds would
be of great benefit to Dawson. In
view of the fact that both sides
have a strong backing it has been
suggested that there be a mass
meeting Of the citizens for the
purpose of discussing the matter.
We hope that it will be carefully
considered and that such action
will be taken as will be Of most
benefit to Dawson.

The appointment of DIR. Wendell

ton of one of the finest and most
highly cultivated of Wisconsin's

the bravest of soldiers is honored.
Those only who know the Doctor
will understand the extent of his
injuries and constant sutferlng-and
anything that will give SO worthy

posures of his profession, is honor

Strong efforts are being put forth
by the Blaine republicans of Yer
mont to defeat senator Edmunds
when he becomes a candidate for re-
election, although his term does not
expire until March 3, 1887. Next
year the legislature that is to choose
his successor is to be elected and the
Blaine men are thus early in the
field trying to prevent the success oil
candidates favorable to Edmunds.
In party sense, democrats may re-
ioice TO see such n man as Edmunds
kicked out of the republican party;
but the country can i'll afford to
have Edmund's place in the senate
filed by man who would repre-
sent the republican party in its de-
generacY.

NO DEMOCRATIC MUGWUMP.

Capt. Hugh Lewis, of Madison,
comes out in long and carefully
written letter to The State Journal,
renouncing the democratic party
and all its works, and asking to be
hereafter considered a full fledged
republican, with all that the name
implies. To use his own words, he
says:
''..Let me be fully understood: am no demo-
cratic mugwump. kicking against disappoint-
ments of fruitless Office seekings; but am and
wish to be considered full iedged republican
and in perfect communion with the republican
party"
Mr.. Lewis was a gallant soldier and
life long, active democrat, and is at
present messenger in the lower
house of congress. And if from
force of habit or otherwise he does
not feel at ease as a member Of the
party in power, he has a perfect and
inalienable right to again link his
fortune with the minority and fight
under the banner of the opposition.
But he need have no dread of being
treated with a spirit of intolerance,
or called any hard names, by the
party which he has deserted. For
intolerance and calling names are
not characteristic of democracy
And moreover the exchange from
party to party has run SO much
more in the opposite direction Of
late, that the desertion of Mr.. Lewis
will unrufIle the feeling of his form
er party friends, even less than
under ordinary CIRCUMSTANCES. And
if he will continue true to his
new found love until the fall oil
1856, when Wisconsin will fall
into line for the administration, he
will have evidence sufficient to con-
vince him that the bent of Capt.
Lewis mind is some how or other
strongl y against the popular current

The Illinois democracy is stil wondering
whether II was hit with a sandbag or knocked
silly by n pile driver Darlington Republican.
The Republican has been very i'll
since the overthrow of the late &. O.
D., but the above shows that it is
now convalescent. If it can build
up its wasted energies by hurrahing
little over Logan's victory, we
ought not to be SO mean as to deny
it the poor privilege of so doing. 1t
is sad to contrast its present wasted
condition with the vigor and fire
displayed by it n few months ago
when it was whooping it up for
Blaine and Logan and basting it to
the democrats at evey jump. The
Republican evidently knows how it
feels to be knocked silly by pile
driver.

The way that the type founders
of the country are sending out cir
culars, advertising type for sale at
large discounts from schedule prices,
inviting printers to write for lowest
figures, etc, would indicate either
that there is serious break in the
"pool," or that the type founding
barons have serious misgivings rs to
how long their power to combine
and charge cxorbitant prices for
their products will continue under
the democratic dispcnsation. 1t has
always been to us one of the most
incxplicable of the many mysteries
of high protection how American
labor could be benefited by taxing
hard working country publishers
and others for the benefit of rich
