IT IS said that the highest notes that
peal forth from the Democratic Organ
are 81 notes. 1t may be true that every
man has his price" but Republicans are
not quoted at 50 per head this year
Laramie Sentinel.
From the size of the financial consign-
ment sent west two days ago by Judge
Carey's managers it is reasonable to sup
pose that the distributors of the Doodle are
prepared to hit all the high places in the
party. Votes are needed in the business
this year, and needed pretty badly.

orr DELEGATE ABR0AD.

Does Judge Carey look upon the peo-
pie of Douglas and Wyoming as fools2
asks the Douglas Budget. During the
delivery of his SO called speech in this
city a few days ago he asserted that if the
present protective tariff on coal was re-
moved it would ''paralyze'' this Infant
industry" in Wyoming; that 600 cars of
coal per day were hauled out of Wyoming
by the Union Pacific railroad alone-and
without the present protective tariff on
coal nary a pound would be hauled, and
the coal mines all over the territory would
shut down, throwing hundreds of men out
of employment. There's argument for
you, gentle reader. What a wondrous
being is this ''orator" and statesman"
our delegate in congress, who tells us that
coal from Wales and Scotland would be
hauled almost half way round the world
and sold cheaper in Nebraska than the
Wyoming product, were it not for our
protective tariff!
Evanston Chieftain.l
Aside from the beautiful and refined
address of our friend Clark. the entire
performance at the Carey Republican
gathering at the court house last Tuesday
evening was a mockery to common sense,
an insult to intelligent Americans, and a
trifing with serious issues which is a men
ace to the rights and liberties of the work
ingmen of this country.
While English speaking people have
been driven from the pune of Pennsyl-
vania aud some portions of Colorado, and
their places supplied BY hordes of barba
rians who have not even a name, but are
known by a brass check and number,
which is fastened to them by a strap, and
who work for less than a dollar a day,
while the people are all burdened with
taxes upon all the necessities of life to
keep up the immense gains OF the
wealthy, these Republican philosophers
greet the situation with senseless songs
and jeers, and attempt to smother COM
mon sense with rldicule and hilarity. 1t
is like Belshazzar's feast. The hand
writing is on the wall. The doom of
these giddy %trlflers vi ne sealed on next
Tuesday. The PEI. IL will not vote to
sustain n party who have in the past
fostered and encouraged institutions
which have a tendency to make the rich
richer and the poor poorer.

Rock Springs, where he had an opportu.
nifty of learning something of the political
situation in that locality Ksterday's

Mr.. Clark undoubtedly had a good
chance to study the political situation both
at Rock Springs and Carbon, where his
familiarity with the Finlander tongue
combined, perhaps, with some more tan
gible infuences) rendered him very popu.
lar. However, Mr.. Clark may be less Of
a prophet in the political business than he
was profitable to some of those whom he

THE subject of an appropriate uniform
for election day has aroused fierce discus
sions in the Republican kindergarten.
Long tailed ulsters and an air of thought
full and persistent p~rsoccupation are al
ready listed. The split is said to have
come over the color and styles of the
neckties to be worn. Many favored the
popular four-in-hand, but some of the
more youthful members thought that the
latest style scarfs, which are gaudy as to
quality and prolific as to quantity would
more closely fill the bill. One practical
member proposed that no scarfs be worn
at all, but this was voted down on the
ground that gentlemen of their delicate
organizations might contract dangerous
colds. The question will be settled at a
special meeting.

THE Albany county Republicans do
not know exactly what to do about the
colored brethren. They want their votes,
but yet do not care to affiliate with them
to any great extent. The party man
ayers issued an invitation to the Scandi-
n%avians to visit headquarters. A public
invitation was extended to the colored
folks through one of the newspapers the
same evening. Then there was war.
The Times in speaking of the matter
hits it off very %cleverly in these words:
"Groesy 1.-THE Republican candidate for
prosecuting attorney was very much
worried last night that the Times had in
vited the colored people to visit Republi-
can headquarters. Well, now, Groesy
dear, they would not hurt you. Your
party advocated their being freed from
slavery. Your party claims the greatest
hunk of glory for the success of the war.
Your party insisted upon a certain amend
ment in the constitution which made all
men equal-except Cinnamon, of course.
Your party has been hankering for the
vote of the colored people for years. Your
party is a real nice party, Groesy, and
there was no slur cast upon your friends
or your party by the invitation made by
the Times. If you did not want the col
ored people at the meeting why did you
not issue some posters and put them on
the bill boards about town announcing the
fact"

The Ardidnchc is trying to create prciu-
dice against the Petit ticket by calling at
tention TO the fact that the attorney for the
Midland road, Col. Patterson, is for it,
The Ardldnche was an enthusiastic sup
porter of the subscription of $500, 600 in
bonds by the county of Shelby to help
build the Midland road, and il said editor
tally at the time: "The 10000 people in
Memphis who are opposed to the Midland
railroad ought TO get together, and have a
fence building on the line marking the
limits OF the city," If there was anything
offensive in the Midland railroad scheme,
whip did the 1ydldnche support it to the
end, and never let the public know what
the ground Of objection was?
An effort has been made TO show that
the election OF Mr.. George Arnold TO the
Taxing District Council would be parallel
to that of Major Burke few years ago.
As matter of fact, there is very slight
parallel Major Burke was an employee of
railroad, MIR. Arnold is part owner of a
railroad that is fighting the city, and that
at the end of six years will want its rights
extended without paying for them. Some
time ago II was reported that the street
railway company would endeavor to get
citizen in the council who would be friend
~ to them, but no one ever dreamed that
they would boldly put forth one of their
own stockholders, Every day it becomes
more and more apparent that this ram

HENRY ELECTED.
McGill, the Republican, Showed Under
"A Great Victory.


"A Great Victory.
Special Dispatch to the Appeal.
Jackson, Miss, Jan. 1.-The election Is
over, and Gen. VIM. Henry, Democrat, IL
elected mayor over John McGill, Rcpub-
lican, but not nominated by any party, by
ninety-three majority. The election has
been one OF the most quiet and peaceful
ever held here. The negroes voluntarily
abstained from voting, and the result was
settled by white voters, which seems to
have given satisfaction 10 both sides. Me-
Gill, the present incumbent, has been in
office for fourteen years, and in some re-
specis has made good mayor. Ills police
force, however has always been inefficient
and is the point where he was the most
assailablc. No one doubts the fact that
the asslssinatioh Of Melville Mitchell
Christmas eve night, coupled with the
many other outragcs against law and order
committed ON the same night, gave rise to
the movement Of today, which swept him
from power. Up TO that time, while
there was n large opposition here 10 McGill
aud the present city administration, no
steps had been taken TO defeat them. and
Il was generally conceded that there would
be no opposition. But this assassination.
with all the horrible details, was more
than the people could stand, and Il started
the avalanche that today swept all obsta-
Giles before il. MclIcnry carried the North
ward by ninc,y-six majority and the South
ward by seven majority. McGill carried
the West warl by ten majority. The en-
tire Democratic ticket was elected, except
John W. Clcngan In the West ward, who
was defeated 10y nine majority. The next
board Of aldermen will stand five Demo
Gratis and one Republican. The Democrats
celebrated their victory tonight by big
torchlight procession. The result here
today is Of great interest to the people all
over the State, as the Republican city adj
ministration here is almost the remnant Of
the Republican party in the State,

BARGE SUNK.
The Guiding Star Meets with n Mis-.

Special Dispatch TO the Appeal.
HELENA, Ark, Jan. 2.-This morning at
an early hour the steamer Guiding Star,
commanded by Capt. John u. lIcglcr,
came into port with two large bargcs. She
had been experiencing considerable
trouble on her trip between Memphis aud
Helena by running aground on sand bans
The bargcs had been examined by the
ship carpenter and everything was pro-
nounced satisfactory, but nevertheless,
within very short time one OF the bnrgos
sprung leak, and In nm incredibly short
time the barge sunk 10 the bottom, carry.
ing with u IFS entire cargo. consisting OF
600 boxes Of starch and 800 sacks OF corn,
all Of which will prove n complete loss.
The freight was shipped 10 parties In New
Orleans. As far ~ asccrtaincd there was
no insurance. An attempt will bc made
10 raise the barge. II Is supposed that
while forcing the barge from the sandbar
that her sides were strained.
