Judge Martin is not only loved by the
Democracy of Kansas, but thousands Of in
telliHent Republicans throughout The state
who will vote for him. The highest evil
dence of his worth lies in the fact of his
Endorsement by SO many Republicans, and
the inability of the Republican press to
find aught against him. Look out for
Kansas. Scott County Sentinel.
Judge Martin is not respected by Re-
publicanS because he is a Democrat, but
on account Of his personal worth. But
it does not necessarily follow that be-
cause man is entitled to the respect of
his fellow citizens he is entitled to their
suffrage for official positions of honor or
trust. Tray was represented, by impli-
cation, as a model dog, but lat did not
atone for his associations. 1t is the
crowd the judge trains with that does
him up, to use slang phrase, and there
is no hope for him as long as he remains
where he is.

As between the abominable mail service
and the more abominable railroad man.
agement of the country as for the public
accommodation, the Democracy seems
bent on crushing Republican daily news
papers out of existence. So diiatory are
the mails in delivering papers to sub
scribers that thousands of readers are
forced to forego the pleasure and benefits
of the daily paper as a matter of self
defense, while railroad timetables ap-
pear to be arranged with the special
view to the unsuitableness of the hours
of departure from points where morn
ing papers are published, and to make
connecting lines from ten to thirty min
utes after the trains on such lines have
departed. The New York Tribune as
serts that its losses of subscribers from
these causes throughout the country,
within the last three or four months,
amount to thousands, and judging its
losses from those sustained by the EAGLE
within the period named and from the
same cause. we are prepared to accept
the Tribune's statement for true. The
only way out of the dilemma that we
can see is to down the Democracy.

What narrow escape the country
makes from ruin! Only two votes in the
senate stand between the industrial in
terests of the country and its general
welfare and prosperity and utter pros
tration not to say universal demoraliza-
ton of all business. Despite the pro-
tests and warnings given by the ablest
statesmen of both parties in the house
the majority in that body passed the
Mills bill at the behest of their political
master, the occupant of the white house,
who would only too gladly approve the
measure should it reach him. 1t is the
csuntry's good fortune, however, that
two patriot Republicans constitute a
sufficient majority to prevent the con-
summation of the scheme to rob the
people and the government for the ben
eft of the country's worst enemy. 1t is
to be hoped the country will rightly ap-
preciate the gravity of the situation and
not permit another election to result in
bringing it to the verge of destruction,
as it is today. Forewarned is forearmed.
The warning is certainly ample.

The New York Tribune points out that
Ives & Stayner, the recent Wall street
heroes, who have fled to Canada, were
informed in advance of every step of the
Ohio grand jury that indicted them, and
that they left New York just in time to
reach Canada before the situation
became so critical. The Tri-
bune intimates that their informant
could be found if necessary. The whole
affair is, as it has been from the start, a
disgrace to our business and law meth
DDS. and they do say in New York that
the whole story hasn't been told yet,
which if true will provoke the universal
wish from the reading public that it new
er will be. The country has already had
surfeit of that business; it would pre-
fer more politics, as tiresome as some Of
that stuff is.

A new building law in force at Berlin

requires the submission of the plans OF
every building to the govesnment. Only
building, which must not be higher than
the width Of the street. The stairs must
be of stone, or of iron and stone. After
the building has been finished it must be
idle for six months to let the walls dry.
Then the health officer inspects the
structure and decides how many people
may sleep in each room. Some of these
precautions are timely enough while 9TH
ers are too conservative to be adopted
and become popular in this country.

The selection of Senator Quay as chair
man Of the national Republican cam
paign committee has been looked upon
as most fortunate one, in view of his
eminent ability as an organizer, but if
he is going to follow up the break he
made in engaging Anna Dickinson to
take part in the campaign as stump
speaker by similar faux pas, we fear the
selection will prove to have been an I'M
fortunate one. Chairman Quay and his
committee will do well to declare the
engagements for female stumpers closed
and arrange appointments for gentle
Anna in New England, exclusively. We
protest against General Harrison being
handicapped in his own state by any
such innovations, as has been suggested.

DR.. Smith, in his. discourse,
spoke Of the great gifts given to
US by God in this country, that
from these gifts our people ought
to. consider their. Christian duty
in the eyangelization of the world.
This country in the providence, of
God, was the, centre from which
the, great principles Of the Chris
tian religion were to radiate.
The Doctor, in most eloquent
way, presented these facts, from
which he I deduced the natural
lesson, that we all should exert
ourselves to do the utmost in our
power. notwithstanding the fact
that there were congregations as-
sembled in other parts, Of the
town, DR.. Smiths audience was
large one, one that abundantly
enjoyed his words of comfort and
hope, and one which appreciated
the grand advantages and oppor-
tunities given us.
At the conclusion of the SER
mon collection was taken up for
the benefit of the missionary
work Of, the A. r. P. Church.
At the Presbyterian Church
Rev. w. M. Duncan Of the Con-,
ference preached. His text was
taken from the 10th Psalm, 12ih
and 18th verses: "What shall T
render to the Lord for oil his
benefits toward me p Z will take
the cup of salvation and call upon
the Lord. .,s;
Mr.. Duncan showed and pic
tured the great meroies and bless
ings of. God to his people, that he
had bestowed upon them. He
showed how in ourselves we were
nothing do nothing with
out the grace Of God. We are
dependant upon God for every
blasting. but we are ungrateful
for them.
Mr.. Duncan's sermon was de-
livered to O. large assemblage, who
greatly. appreciated his words, and
who will in future hold him in
fond remembrance.
At the Methodist church the
Episcopal congregation held a
Thanksgiving service. The SER
vices were conducted by Rev. Mr..
Glass, who did not preach ser
mon. The exercises were short
and appropriate to the. day, being
deeply solemn and very impress
sive. There was ut this meeting
also large gathering. Thus was
the annual Thanksgiving day spent
in Winnsboro, and we are certain
every man, woman and child, lin +,
their thankful prayers to- God,
were sincere and earnest, as they
