HAIL TO GENERAL FLICK.

The Republicans of the Second
District made no mistake in their
action at Keyser on Thursday last.
The resolutions adopted were ring
ing ones which strike squarely the
mark. The candidate nominated in
the person of Gen. w. III. Ii. Flick,
is one that the party in any section of
tins great Union could we'll be proud
of. He is able, honest, brave, fearless,
without stain or blemish. A noble
soldier in his country's cause, a fear
less exponent of right political poll
cies against free trade heresies. A
brilliant and successful lawyer. A
tried and trusty public official. A
talented and noble man. He would
have been a foeman worthy of the
steel of pure Democrat like a Brad
ford, a Raymond, Morrow.
Mr.. Flick will be voted for by men
of all parties who desire to see our
interests promoted and our State
represented by its noble, pure, up
right and honest men, Philippi

JEFFERSON COUNTY POLITICS.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept 90
The Jefferson county Democrats
who are employed here land they
are not a few returned today to
Washington from attendance on the
primaries that were held Saturday.
To say that they are indignant over
the result, which was a defeat for
the Camden men and u consequent
victory for the Mason Lucas faction
is only half expressing il. They
charge that Representative Wilson's
friends defeated the Camden Demo.
Gratis, aud that it will cause Mr..
Wilson to lose at least 800 votes In
jefferson county. DIR. Starry, the
Camden candidate for State Senate
was beaten by 100 majority, largely
through the efforts Of friends of Mr..
Wilson, who says it was without
his knowledge, and the doctors
friends VOW vengeance. Lucas and
Chew, anti-Camden candidates for
Legislature, it is charged, were elect
ed through the Vaccinations OF
Starry's enemies. Starry IS the recog-
nized Camden leader in tue county.
The vote shows gain of about 500
votes for the Camden faction over
the last election.
1t is charged that Governor
" Windy Wilson was in Jefferson
county last week, and, while there,
used his personal efforts and infiu.
ence toward the defeat OF the Cam
den men. He attempted to get an
audience, expecting to speak, but
was defeated in this intent by the
Camden bosses, aud got in his work
IN another way.
The result of the primaries takes
Starry out of the race for the Ser
ate, and it will now be a Berkeley
county man. He is not pledged in
the Senatorial contest. Wilson's
friends here acknowledge that the
contest will weaken his canvass, but
claim that when it is ascertained
that he was not personally interest
ed in the fight, the Camden men
will again rally to him. The feeling
at present is very bitter among the
leaders of the factions InteligeRcer

THE WINDS.

The North wind s bowling legions
Swept down from boreal regions,
From the pallad zone where winters
throne
Was wrought in the wide waste, wan and
lone,
Unnumbered years ago.
They come on wings whose fiutterings
Bestrew the world with snow,
And their icy breath is bitter death,
Their football only woe.
The East wind comes with sadness
And pain, and midnight madness,
From solitude where curses brood
And poisoned dews on the dales are
strewed,
And sorrow throttles gladness.
1t comes like ghost from spectral coast
Where cypress branches wave,
And out of its plumes fall CHASTITY glooms
Like those that encircle the grave.
The South wind comes assigning,
To buds and blooms replying,
He comes in. quest of love and rest,
And presently, on rose S breast,
In rapture lies a-dying;
He comes like dreams, and only seems,
His cradle is his tomb;
His life is song to murmuring streams,
His death-a rich perfume.
The zephyr, fragrance laden,
Brings balm to man and maiden
Brings dove-eyed rest to the troubled
breast
From the mystical regions of the West
From love S enchanted Alden;
1t comes with news as fresh as the dews
That gather in starry hours,
With wonderful store of tender lore
From the sweet book of the flowers.

KENNA AS AN AUTHOR.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-There is
not so much good cheer at the
National Democratic Congressional
compaign headquarters as there
was. Before the campaign book
was published nearly all the chiefs
of bureaus in the department prom
Used to subscribe for a dozen or more
copies each, and the committee fully
expected to sell at least 5000 copies
in the District. Since the publica-
ton of the work, however. the prom
ises to buy have not realized worth
a cent. The actual fact is that up
to last night but eleven of the books
had been sold in Washington. What
is troubling the committee now is
how they are going to raise the
money to pay for the publication of
the book and the salaries of the
clerks employed in sending out
Democratic literature. While the
book was being edited a prominent
Democrat proposed to pay 1000 for
the privilege of one page in the book.
He was asked what he desired to
write. He said. 81 only want TO
write one line to be printed on one
page. 1t shall be good Democratic
campaign MATERIAL The PROPOSE
ton was accepted, and the next day
the gentleman presented certified
check on Riggs Il Co.'s bank for
81 900 and slip of paper upon
which was written in a bold hand +:

cepted. Courier Journal.

POETRY.
OCTOBER.

October comes across the hill
Like some light ghost, she is SO still,
Though her sweet cheeks are rosy
And through the floating thistle-dowT
Her trailing, brier-tangled gown
Cleans like crimson posy.
The crickets in the stubble chime
Lanterns flash out at milking time
The daisy 8 lost her ruffles
The wasps the honeyed pippins try
A film is over the blue sky,
A spell the river muffles.
The golden-rod fades in the sun;
The spider S gauzy ven is spun
Athwart the dropping sedges
The nuts drop softly from their burrs
No bird-song the dim silence stirs,-
A blight is on the hedges.
But filled with fair content is she,
As if no frost could ever be,
To dim her brown eyes luster;
And much she knows of fairy folk
That dance beneath the spreading OAK
With tinkling mirth and buster.
She listens when the dusky ewes
Step softly on the fallen leaves,
AS if for message cheering;
And it must be that she can hear,
Beyond November grim and drear,
The feet of Christmas nearing.

DEMOCRATIC TESTIMONY.

In the nomination of Gen. w. Ii.
Ii. Flick for Congress, we have a
man in whom are united all the
elements and characteristics which
go to make an excellent representa-
tive of the great masses of the hon.
est laboring people who earn their
bread by the sweat of their brow.
He is free from the faint OF monopo.
~. The wheels of low party ma
chinery have never been turned by
him. He comes before the people
solely on his merits-unlike his OPP
ponent who is running on demer-
its alone and whose only hope of
success depends upon the strength
of those who have been accomplices
with HIM. The men are before the
people. Let them choose now
whether they will have man who
stands out upon his own ability and
upon the principles he advocates,
or man whose only claim is that
he belongs to a respectable politi-
cal party Tucker Pioneer.

SURFACE DlTcHING.

The more we use the pillow for
making wide surface bitches on low
lands the better we like the plan.
We get the bitches deeper and wild.
err every time we pillow. We have
bitches over four feet deep that we
drive across with wagon, moving
machine, cultivator, etc. These
bitches are made by simply turning
the land away from them every time
we pillow. They carry off great
quantities of water in the spring,
but in the summer are so dry that
grass and crops will grow almost to
the center of the ditch. We do the
work with a large pillow and three
good horses abreast, and turn over
a deep, wide farrow. 1t is often
rough work at the first. We have
gone through places where the weeds
were as high as the horses heads,
and old logs and brush-heaps and
bushes were in the way. But when
you ence get the horses or oxen to
pillow through the work is essentially
accomplished. Every furrow is cas-
Ter than the preceding, and every
year afterwards you can make bet
ter and better work. The great point
is to make beginning and stick to
it. alt is better to make the ditch
with spades and shovels.n Some
times. But make the ditch.-Amer.

In him man Of ability and fairness

of brains and bravery. He has con-

them, and in Congress his influence
would be largely felt in shaping and
securing that legislation most bene-
