The Bathgate Democrat gives a
long explanation of why the republi.
can committee would not permit a
discussion between Gen. Allen and
Megquier. The explanation is simple,
the republicans did not care to adver.
tise Megqnicr by giving him the honor
of meeting a man of the calihre of
Gen. Allen. Victory or defeat in de.
bate was not Megquier's object, it
was to mar the effect of the republi.
can meeting and to advertise himself.
Tho committee thought the people
had enough of MegIuier and came to
listen to others and acted accordingly.

A Wrong Thing.

During the absence of the proprietors
of this paper this week, a gentleman old
enough in good many senses to have
known better, came into the job printing
department of this office, went and read
ballots which were being printed on the
job press (Which he ought not to lave
donc) and against the protest OF the boy
who was at work, carried printed bal.
lot of. This was in the afternoon. but
SO industriously bad that little ballot cir
culated that as one of the publishers Of
this paper. caine along from his supper,
no less than three irate and indignant
republicans, one after the other, stopped
him with a demand to know why tho
republicans were printing ballots will,
the names Of democrats and for the sale
thereon. We have heard the same
story from that little ballot, from here to
st. Thomas and ere this it has probably
put in its dirty little work into us many
precincts MS possible. Its story liz, that
the republican commit ee have ordered
and intend to circulate split tickets in
the interests of certain candidates, and
further that they are fighting local op.
ton, by putting on their ballots "For
the Sale"
Notwithstanding the printed evidence
to the truth of the above furnished by
the little estray ballot and by the assey-
Grafton OF lis bearer, the story is false
in every particular. ut is wise ballot
that knows its author" in this election.
and prominent family features are mis-
leading i'll this case.
The secrets ola job printing Office are
inyiola5lc, and if the democratic central
committee or any other persons ordered
all Or any Of their ballots at this office
their manner Of printing them or any
other matters connected Herewith.
would be kept rs secret for them as
would be the work of our own or any
other committee. This is one of the
ethics Of the printers trade. In conse.
qucnce of this secrecy we cannot say to
the public who ordered the ballot spoken
OF but can say and do know that no
split tickets Or "for the sale" tickets have
been ordered or authorized by the re-
publican central committee, or any re.
publican nominee. from this Office.

TWILIGHT-LAND.

Here we are in twilight-land;
Creakety'creak,
Rocking chairs 10 every hand
sway and swing and squeak;
Here Is neither park nor street
Hare are the little twinkle feet;
White are the gowns and LOOSE
No place here for ball or bat,
No need now for coat or hat,
None for stockings on shoes.
What are the stories Of twilightlaud
llark, ah bark
Call the sweet names where they stand,
Waiting In the dark;
Cinderella aud little BoPeep,
Who lost her sheep, her pretty sheep;
Jack Homer. bold Boy Blue,
Aud the three bears living In the wood,
And the wolf that ate Red Riding Hood,
And the spinning pussy, too.
The little children in twiightland
Are still as mice,
And the stury-teller must understand
she's 10 tell each story twice.
The crickets chirp the stars eyes wink;
Perhaps the man In the moon may think
Them saucy in their play;
But, whatever Is heard or said OF done
Each sleepy, weary little one
Gets rested for next day.
For the pillow Is white in twillght-land
And white the bed,
And the tender, loving mothers hand
Is laid ON the drowslest head
And list the tune She huns and sings,
As with soft creak the rocker swings,
How far away II seems
That tune-that lullaby-ah, me
They are leaving twilight-land, you see,
fOr the stiller land of dreams
