Messrs. Editors Again the season Of
reyelry and mirth is upon US, the light fan
tastic following close in the wake of the
merry Christmastide. Scarcely an even
ing passes but that the votaries of pleasure
assemble here or there and engage in the
mazes Of the vain and giddy dance.
The old year, with its joys and scrrows,
its hopes ard disappointments has passed
away never again we trust 10 repeat itself
in political point Of view, especially when
economic questions only were involved,
affecting the interests of the aggregated
toiling and laboring classes of the country
who are thus made subservient TO the sor-
did greed Of trusts, combines and monopo-
lies.
The beautiful weather of the past few
weeks has been the subject of general COM
ment even by our Oldest citizens, who say
they never saw better at this season of the
year. II reminds one of the beautiful
Springtimc when the Winter is past, and
the time OF singing has come and the voice
of the turtle is heard in the land.
BY invitation, your correspondent was
present ct Christmas tree entertainment
given by the accomplished teacher, Mrs.
Goodwin, and pupils of Primary School
No. 8. Poems, dialogues, lectures and
singing were the order of the day. These
were supplemented by profusion of good
things, rejoicing the heart and making
glad the inner man. Thanks TO the good
taste and judgment of Santa Claus and our
worthy Preceptress.
The sympathies of this entire communi.
ty are spontaneous in expressions ofsorrow
for our distinguished fellow-citizen, Hon.
Robert o. Combs and his family, because
of their sad bereavement. How terrible
the anguish and poignant the grief must be
Of this afflicted family Others have been
similarly bereaved, ourselves among the
number. As we were, so can they be CON-
forted, by the consultations of religion and
the declaration of our Lord, "What do
now thou shalt not know, but shall know
hereafter" Therefore
Let Thy commands opposed be by none,
But thy good pleasure and Thy win be done.
We trust we may be pardoned for digrss.
sing from the solemnihes of the thought
that has just engrossed our mind and per-
mitted to take glance ct the condition OF
our public roads generally. Il is fact
that early in the year vast amount ofun-
necessary work was performed In some To-
calities, while the larger portion was neg
lected until lately, when come of our dis
tinguished supervisors, Mr.. Julius Cesar,
MIR. Pompey Snow and Mr. Cephas White
SCOT, thinking that the days were long
enough, the ground soft, and acting upon
the theory that the hair of the dog was
good for the bite, proceeded to mend mud
with mud, and as consequence these are
trial days on wheels with large expendi-
ture of tax-money as an auxiliary and yet
little or no benefit accrues to the travelling,
taxpaying public. How long patient.
