Frank Wits, one of our hunters. some
ten days ago, went hunting beyond Narrow
Back mountain. He noticed considerable
signs of bear. He went to work and
erected pen, well arranged in every par
ticular, bated it well. returned home, and
at the proper time returned to look after
his pen, where he found MIR. Bruin safely
keeping house. He was about two years
old, quite fat, and supposed to weigh about
200 pounds. He intends to try to pen an
other in a few days.
We are sorry to report the illness Of
Mrs. VIM. f. Karicofe, of our village.
Her physician, DR.. Hartsook, reports her
case critical.
Beriah Vint is also quite indisposed,
with tumor on his hip. His sufferings
are very acute but not dangerous.
With the continued dry weather the pas
ture fields are becoming blighted, and un-
less rain soon comes, indicates early feed
ing of stock to keep them in condition to
winter we'll.
Farmers are all nearly done seeding.
Our corn crop is not SO good generally as
last year but with the surplus in hand
from last year there will be plenty and
some to spare.
Politics are very quiet, a general apathy
prevails among the friends of both parties.
| Still, we believe, the respective parties
| willroll their usual strength at our pre-
cinct. Since 'Mahoneism' has died out,
and each party is sailing under its true
colors, there is less acrimony, and political
intercourse more mild and friendly, which
we think forebodes better state of polit-
ical morals in the future. Voters often
cast their votes to crafty their partizan
friends, regardless of the matters at issue
in the contest We hope this state of
things will continue to improve. We are
in favor of a fair vote and an honest
count. N. l.. B.

The County Canvass.

From the programme mapped out by the
Democratic County chairman, the people
are to be surfeited, from now until the
day of election, with political clap-trap
and appeals to the party to come to the
rescue CT an imperilled country! They
will no doubt be told that the destiny of
the Republic rests upon the vote of every
man who is addressed and that that vote
must be cast for the Democratic candidate
for Congress, regardless of his views of
vital public gu estions and the interests of
the people in them. It will be the old
song of the party, without telling the vo-
tiers what the party has done in State or
Nation. There will be a painful Ieticence
as to the condition of the State, by reason
of Democratic legislation on the debt
questionable danger which hangs over
the public schools. and the refusal of the
Democratic party in Congress to support
a measure which proposes to give to Vir-
ginia $5O00,000 for the support of the
Public School system. There will be an
effort made to explain away the vote of
every Democratic Congressman from Vir-
ginia for the Morrison tariff bill in effect,
but let the people remember that the
Blair Bill was twice defeated by Demo-
cratic House of representatives, after
having as often passed the Senate, and
that the Morrison bill received the votes
of 1856 out of 40 Democratic members of
Congress, measure which was the first
important step in the direction of free
trade. The purpose now is to flood the
country with false appeals or false or dis
torted statement of facts as to all the
great interests of the country, when no
opportunity will be given for their correc-
tion. The Court House Ring has been
running the county SO long, and has so
often deceived and deluded the people
with specious promises that it is assumed
the same deception can be practiced again,
and as often as will suit its purposes. The
people ought to close their ears to such
appeals now, for it is the same old game
to mislead and entrap them. The speakers
who will be sent out will not dare to meet
their opponents. They will not discuss
fairly and honestly the questions at issue,
but will deal in unsupported assertion and
unfounded statements, knowing that there
is.no time to uncover and expose them.
1t is for that reason that joint discussions
have been declined, and the effort made to
keep the voters in the dark as to what is
right and to their interests in casting their
ballots. The party lash is to be used I'M
sparingly-the old methods of-abuse and
denunciation are to be invoked, and
freemen driven to the polls as sheep to the
slaughter, if they will allow it.
Let the people show their manhood, and
tell these ring managers that they know
their duty and mean to discharge it like
men in the ballot they will cast. Let them
vote their honest sentiments, and sus-
tanned by their conscientious convictions,
defy all irrelevant and sensational appeals.
