hon. 4. s. VAN EATON AT WORK.


We published, on the 81 OF last
April, u list oi The nominations that
had been made by Judge Van Ed
ton OF persons to I'LL a number OF
the Federal Offices of the Seacoast,
thereby giving all those interested
ample time to prepare for the
change. Strange to say it was re-
ceived by many very much as was
Noah's prophecy OF The coming
food. Some of the more incredu
lOus ''insF dvugged themselves with
a compound of doubt and hope and
turned themselves for another
sweet slumbe n. But alas tor their
hopes and expectations. Tie ap-
pOintmeuts have been made OF al
most the entire list, and some 9th
ers besides, without a single vari-
alton from the list nominated.
Judge Van Eaton has Oeen work
ing faithfully to the end that every
Republican OF his Congressional
District be removed in favor of
good and true Democrats, He set
out with the determination that his
constituents should enjoy to the
fullest that for which they have so
long labored, regardless OF clamOr
and personal animosity, and for
which he deserves the thanks aud
gratitude Of tue Drmocracy of This
District. He promised and so far
has kept his word to the letter.

Such a man would 6nd a considerable

the Democratic party found it necessary
to give the East n fair representation

more deadly than the fever. 1t is a
disease that has always been fire.

is now being very largely used by
