On Wednesday, of last week the
annual state election in Rhode
Island was held. Las, year the
Democrats elected their state ticket,
had 10 majority in'the House of Re
representatives., while the Senate was
only Republican by three. This
year the Republican candidate for
Governor defeated the present Gov
ernor who was candidate for re-
election by plurality of 3,3s4, and
has 1884 majority of all the votes
cast; and the Legislature is four fifths
majority Republican in both
branches securing the election of a
Republican United States Sena'or for
the full term commencing March 4th
1880. Much interest has been felt
in this election, and The result shows
that toe free trade policy Of Grover
the Ist is most emphatically con.
demned by the factory operatives of
Rhode Island, who constitute ma,
jority of the voters Of that state.

mares from the south to be bred to Jerome

from Dallas. Texas Jerome Turner has
only three colts. One Of these cslts, two

with the mares about the Goth. Another
has just been sold by Mr.. II. p Saunders,

owned by Mr.. Pcterman, of Texas, for
which he asks $4,000. these three colts are

The Springfield, Massachusetts
Union, one Of the wide awake Jour.
nails of the Old Bay Stat: says:
"The territory of Dakota has a
larger population than the state of
Maine, about the same number of
post offices, and nearly four times as
many miles of railroad. Moreover,
its territory is as large as the whole
Of New England, New York, New
Jersey. Maryland and half of Pensyl
yania. And yet Dakota cannot be
admitted TO the Union, because it
would be Republican state and
send two Republican senator's and
four Republican representatives to
Congress. 1t will be noticed that
this Democratic administration is
vastly more disposed to yield to the,
demands of British subjects in Can.
ada than to accord honest rights to
Amer;c,-a c;'izans in Dakota
