From State to county politics the
transition is easy and natural. In
st. Mary's our party Is not yet in good
fighting trim. Having 'waxed hot in
fiction, in battle we wax cold where
fore, We fight not as we fought in the
brave days of DID, We hope. how.
ever, that this reprosch will not abide
with rs longer, but that this fall we
will present a united front to the
common enemy. Quarrelling and
pickering will not avail anything.
Earnest and united work is what is
needed and the men who are willing
to give that to the party are the ones
who deserve its rewards.

The Democratic party Of st. Mary
might learn some things from it's OPP
ponent that would contribute not a
little to it's success. and one is TO stick
to together. Republicans ever help
republicans. When they have any
fayors to give democrat does not re-
ceive them, and, if democrats wish to
accomplish anything they must adopt
che same plan. The need of the hour
is not democratic professions and re-
publican performances. Actions speak
more forcibly than words. Words are
wind; deed proveth promise: he who
helps at need is true. We commend
these truisms TO the attention OF dem
ocrats.

SDaSm0Nc HdyertisjB0,

eff you want to be healthy you must eat
regularly, as meat to-day will not serve you
tomorrow. To be well and hearty eat at
every meal time. To be prosperous in bust
ness advertise regularly. Stop one and you
starve and die. Stop the other and your bust
ness takes consumption and dies also. Spas
modic advertising is like having a feast and
famine'-more famine than feast as a general
rule-and is never satisfactory. To take out
your card in dull times is like killing your
horse because he is a little lame. In dull
times advertising is the most effective, as
more notice is then taken of printers ink than
any other time"

Mccook vs.. Hrapahoe.
A. ~Dewey,.......
Adjourned.

From the Arapahoe Mirror.l
The base ball park contained more lovers of
the national game, yesterday, than on any
previous occasion within the memory of the
Oldest inhabitants. They came from all points
of the compass, from own and country-all
bent on having a good time, whether victory
perched on the banner of Arapahoe or Nc
Cook. The contest commenced promptly at 3
o'clock, with the home team at the bat, and
the boys scored 3 runs and shut the visitors
out. The visitors returned the compliment in
the next two innings and evened up the score.
In the fifth and sixth innings Arapahoe piled
up eight big runs, and seemed in a fair way to
come out on top of the heap. The visitors and
their hackers looked blue. Arapahoe stock
had an upward tendency and offers of two to
one on the favorites found no takers. 1t was
well that they did not, however, for in the
seventh and eighth McCOok, by a series of
hits, and reckless playing by the
home boys, snatched victory from the jaws of
defeat. 1t was a great game, hotly contested
from beginning to end. and ought to have
been a victory for Arapahoe. Following is the
SCORE BY INNINGS:
