In the death of Vice President Hendricks
the country has again been warned against
our present inadequate provisions for the
Presidential succession. By the death Of
President Garfield and the succession of Vice
President Arthur, the nation for the first
time in its history was without constitu-
tional successor to the Presidency. In every
previous instance ofthe deaf hofa President
in Office and the succession of the Vice Presi-
dent designated successor remained in the
President of the Senate, and sometimes also
in the Speaker of the House. But when Mr..
Arthur became Chief Magistrate there was
neither President of the Senate nor Speaker
of the House to take his place in case ofneed
and had he then died the country would have
been left without a head. And now for the
second time in the history of the nation, a
similar state of affairs exist. If President
Cleveland should suddenly die, there is now
neither Vice President, President of the SEN
ate nor Speaker of the House to succeed him.
True, Congress meets within few days,
when the Senate will select presiding officer
who will be, under the constitution, the Vice
President Even when is this done, we will
have Republican in waiting as the successor
of Democratic President, for the Senate is
Republican and Republican will be chosen
as its presiding officer. This is state of af.
fairs not pleasant for Democrats to contem'
plate, and is a warming to the nation which
should not go unheeded. The people should
demand of Congress protection against I
repetition of this dangerous state of affairs
by the passage of such laws which shoult
/ make its recurrence impossible. The New
York Herald, in speaking upon this subject
says: "The Democrats have just succeede'
in regaining power after astruggle Of twenty
five years. Yet in the very first year OF thei
administration but one life stands betweei
!, their possession and their surrender of gov
ernmental control. For this they are them
selves responsible. Moved by the warning o
1881 the Senate passed bill vesting the Pres
idential succession in the Cabinet. Thi
measure was intended to remedy two very sc
rious defeats in the existing law. First,
would have guarded against any possible fal
: ure in the line of succession, which bega
after the Vice President with the Secretar
of State and went on through the Cabine
Second, it would have prevented the politics
. transfer of the administration in case of tn
/ death both of the President and Vice Pres
dent. Had it become law the country woul
not now be left without designated succei
: sor to the Presidency, nor would such succel
: sor, after the meeting of Congress, be the b
publican President of the Senate. Thei
would now be successor in line, and it woul
be Secretary Bayard, the chief of Presider

The HOLIDAYS.

Although Christmas is more than three
weeks of, and New Years week later, vet
the shop windows and store fronts are al
ready filed with attractive articles of adorn-
ment and utility placarded as Holiday
goods, y and in.the seclusion of many lady's
boudoir things of beauty are being worked
out by dainty fingers, destined to gladden. the
heart of some loved one. when Christmas
morning shall have come to throw his beni-
son of "peace on earth; good will to
men, over the waiting world.
A feeling of expectancy and anticipation
fills the hearts of all, and talk of the merry
Christmas times already monopolizes many
conversations The ladies, God bless 'em,
are troubling their pretty heads in the vain
struggle to decide just what to buy, and
what to make, in order that friends and
relatives may not be disappointed when holly
berries and myrtle wreath door and mantle,
on the blessed Christmas morning. Many
are the consultations held between moth
er and daughter as to what would be fitting
and appropriate for father and brother, and
earnest are the discussions as to what can be
made In the home circle and what must be
procured from the store counters.
| The children too, are full of Christmas and
its joys, and their little hearts are beating
high as they think Of what Santa Claus is
likely to bring them; and in many of the in
nocent prayers warbled at mothers knees are
requests put up to the "Giver of every good
and perfect gift" that the mysterious per-
sonage who rewards good children on Christ
mas, will not forget some one thing upon the
possession of which the little heart is set. II
does not matter how small a child may be,
the beautiful fiction Of Santa Claus is to il
the most wonderful and perfect realizati4s
and childish speculation as to what he viii
bring on Christmas eve, will engross all the
thoughts of the young and innocent from
this time on until the fruition of hope il
reached on that blessed day, toward which
all eyes are now turning.
| The dealers in holidays goods are also busy
4 in loading their shelves and counters with ev.
erything that is likely to appeal to the taste
and purse of those in search of Christmas
i gifts. Immense sums of money have been
invested by those who cater to the holiday
trade in the purchase of things likely to catch
the eyes Of those who start out to buy ''some.

Ed. NoRTHwEsT.-I wish to ask a few ques-
tions, and ask to do SO through the columns
of your paper, and invite replies from all
good citizens of Henry county.
Ths question of stone roads is again before
the public, and large number of our citl-
zens have shown their faith in the improve
ment to the extent of very liberal contribu-
tions.
The Editor of the Signal would have us be-
| lieve that he is running his smut mach inc
solely for the county's good, and asks the
Democratic County Commissioners to give
him the printing of the Delinquent tax list
one half of the proceeds from which he pro-
poses to contribute towards the construction
of stone roads. Well, what consummate
cheek! Let us compare his bill for printing
the Commissioners report of 1884 with thai
| of the NORTHWEST and strike difference by
half, and see how much he will give toward
keeping poor, poverty stricken Henry coun
ty out of the mud. Here it is:

ignorant Democratic Commissioners know nj
better. But if his charges were equal those

accept the miserable pittance of half pric

that on the day after the death of our owl
beloved Vice President, Thomas A. Hend

giving a cent towards sustaining such sheet

abuse of Democrats, attacks every Democra

- Frank Siddalls, the greatest Philadel-

marked, as D fact worthy Of comment, that
he had never had personal application for
patronage from the Newspaper Advertising
Bureau of Mr.. Geo. P. Rowell q Go. Of New
York. The reason for this may be found,
not in the fact that Messrs. Rowell g. Go. do
not want business or are unwilling to drum
to- it, but that they find a cheaper and more
ofiicacious way Of securing patronage is to
Keep their names before the Public by using
the advertising columns of the newspapers.
