Reducing Postage Rates.

At recent conference of Post
Office officials held in Washington
for the purpose of considering the
subject of reducing the rate of pos
tage on general merchandise and
wiping out fourth-class matter alto
gether, it was proposed to include
merchandise in third-class matter
and carry it at the rate Of two ounces
for ! cent, instead of cent per
ounce, as at present. Under the
new arrangement the three classes
would be divided as follows: First
class, letters and postal cards sec
ond, newspapers and periodicals
sent out to regular subscribers by
publishers third class, everything
else that is mailable. The matter is
still under consideration.

Good Country Roads.

The Philadelphia Record recently
published the annexed pithy re-
marks upon the growing necessity
for good country roads
College professors, civil engineers
and magazine writer's are directing
public attention to the subject OF
country highways, and the Wander
bilt University, Tennessee, has gone
so far as to provide for the free in
struction in road en- gineering of one
person from each county in that
State. The Baltimore San, which
is agitating the question in Mary
land, points out that the power re-
quired to draw wagon weighing
with its load on u level macadamized
road of broken stone is 65
pounds, which is increased to 200
pounds on common dirt road.
Professor Ely, of John Hopkins
University, estimates that poor
roads cost the farmer on an average
S15 per horse and Professor jerks,
Of Knox College, ILL.,, argues that
with permanent roads freight could
often be hauled ten miles on wag-
ons cheaper than it could be taken
one mile on "a dirt road to a railroad
station, unloaded put on the cars,
freight paid, unloaded from the cars,
and carried to its destination. OF
the social influence of good roads
he says that "a large part of the
farmers depend on their ability tc
attend church, lectures, concerts
and social gatherings at distance
and really good roads, by enabling
them to go so much more easily
would doubtless raise the whole in
tellectual tone of the farming com
munity, besides keeping within thu
healthful influence of the farm
many who are now forced into TIN
towns"

An Uni que Feature Of the
Penn sylvania Limited.

The Pennsylvania Limited, per
forming daily service between
New York and Chicago, needed but
one feature to complete the perfec-
ton of it's appointment. The men
had their porter and barber, and
now the ladies have their maid and
hair dresser. The introduction of
the maids is as novel as it is unique
feature. 1t exists on no other reg
ular train in the world, and the Ia
dies who travel will appreciate it
heartily. The maids are colored wo-
men, and there is one employed on
each train. They are especially
charged to look after the comfort of
ladies, children, and invalids. They
are to assist the ladies III making
their toilet, to dress their hair, and
serve as n hand-maid to them in the
fullest sense of the term. They
will have an eye to the children, and
have care for the invalids and Ia
dies who may travel without male
escort. The convenience and com.
fort of having an attendant of ones
own sex will be cordially appreciat.
ed by timid women and those who
are inexperienced in travel. The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
and the Pullman Palace Car Com
pany deserve great credit for then
persistent efforts to enhance tn,
comfort and pleasure of their pa

There is no reason why every man
on the republican ticket should not
be elected this fall. There is not one
of the nominees who has q blemish
upon his character or reputation and
are in every way capable of filling the
offices to which they aspire. The dem.
ocrats would make believe that there
are republicans who intend to bolt the
ticket, but knowing the metal of which
republicans are made We say it is not
so. Republicans vote for principle
and the party and not SIMPLY for the
men. With such a clean, strong tick
ct not republican vote should be
lost.

false remarks have been made and
written by certain individuals mem
bers of the republican party in this

democrats are founding their hopes
Of getting certain of their candidates

are vain. The republican party Of
the county have met in convention
have enunciated sound governmental
doctrines and have nominated for the
offices to be filed men competent in
every respect for the respective offices
and that party will stand to its nomi
nees and elect every one of them.

Some Thomas county farmers have
nominated separate ticket. This is
nonsense. Such movements are led
by sore-heads, and farmers should not
countenance them. The move is es-
pecially uncalled for in Thomas coun-
ty, as every man on the republican
ticket there is 4 farmer and home

In another column will be found
the names of the democratic nominees.
Three of the names, Smith for clerk,
Crawford for treasurer and Castor for
coroner are on the so called Farmers
Ticket. 1t looks as though the so
called Farmers party was made up
mostly from the Democratic party.
In other words the statement made
by this paper before the Farmers
mass meeting was held that the third
party movement would be fathered
and led by democrats was strictly and
literally true.

for the entire district, and not Tor any
particular locality, town or county.
The administration of the affairs OF
the Oberlin land office in Democratic
hands has not been in favor OF settlers.
When settlers have found difficulties
and hinderences thrown in their way,
and when they have been subjected
to silly regulations and petty lncen-
veniences. cattle companies and cor
porations have been given clear
track. We demand now for the peO-
pie what Capt. McGonigal and MIR.
Anderson can give them-a square deal
and fair treatment. This we are
confident will be given in the Oberlin
land Office under Republican admins
tration. The minds of the barnacle
clerks need to be disabused of the
idea that the Office and its employees
own the public land IN the district,
and that the people have no rights
except to be made the most trouble
and inconvenience possible.

The personal of the county demo
cratic ticket is somewhat peculiar in
its make up. The ticket is headed
by w. W. Smith a chronic Office seek
er and a democrat who two years
years since was routed far and neal
by his republican opponent for the
same position he now seeks, and fol
him awaits certain defeat. Thomas
Crawford stands second on the list
for county treasurer. Mr.. Crawford
is farmer advanced in years and il
he possesses any clerkly or financial
ability it has remained dormant and
unknown until he has gone far past the
meridian of life and now wants to en-
ter upon duties which requires fine
knowledge of book keeping combined
with active rapid accounting. The
people of Thomas county will see
that Mr.. Crawfords political aspira-
tions are effectually squelched. Mr..
T. P. Feehan the democratic candidate
for sheriff is nominated on account of
supposed popularity among the far
mers. Hardly, Mr.. Feehan. The peo-
pie of this county have tried demo-
cratic county attorney to their great
sorrow and propose that Alex Show
alter shall have the place You seek.
Mr.. Hemming for surveyor and Mr..
Castor for coroner are democrats which
is all that the people of the county
know of them, while Patten the dem
ocratic candidate for register of deeds
is a new conner in the county coming
from no one knows where and no one
knows when and unknown to even
the prominent democratic leaders of
the county. The people are satiled
with the clean record made by popu-
lar PASSED. as register of deeds and
will elect him by an overwhelming
majority. The whole democratic
ticket is destined to defeat this fall in
Thomas county and seems especially
put ND for this purpose.
