A NUMBER of Thanksgiving
sketches, good poems and attractive
department articles, besides colored
and black illustrations of fashion
and fancy work, completes the No
vember number of "Godey's Lady's
Book" 1t is a real holiday number;
how the publishers give so much for
$500 per year is more than we can
understand. Send subscriptions to

For county clerk--W. w
Williams, than whom there is
no better in the state. Nearly
every voter has interests at stake SO
far as this Office is concerned, and
they are the ones who should see
that their little X is carefully placed
opposite Mr.. Williams name. He
is not only competent but worthy as
an old soldier of broken down con
stitution because of service thus
rendered his country.
No. l6 DUTCH STANDARD. In an
article referring to the lariff on
sugar, a week or two ago, the TRIB-
UNE stated that the grade to be i'm
ported free was No. 13, and under
dark brown sugar untitled for

and herewith laid before our read
ers, it appears that all grades up to
and including No. sinteen, light
brown sugar, in common use among
people, are placed on the free list.
This makes the law even better for
the people than was first claimed.

in the near future. The time is not

so successful with their Temple of
Fame and have been requested so
many times to repeat it, that they
have concluded to try it again
with a difference. This entertain
ment is peculiarly appropriate dur
ing the present agitation over "the
little school house," and will be one
that adherents of all political creeds
can enjoy.
WHOSE BooDLR Is IT?-In their
desperation, and utter want of any
arguments, the Dem ocralic howlers
commonly resort to the cry of money
corruption on the part of Republi-
cans, and from the mouth of every
Democratic clacker issues insinua,
tions of "Spooner's money!" "Saw-
yer's money! "robber tariff Doodle"
etc. If some of those so fearful
lest Republicans may put money in
to the campaign, will explain who
furnished the $400 to buy two news
papers in Grant county to oppose
LaFollette, it would be an interest
ing bit of information to the public.
SPooNER's MEETING.-Ev en- Dem
ocrats admit that the meeting in the
Wigwam last Thursday evening
was the greatest political gathering
ever known in this city, and that
the Senator's speech was one of the
ablest defenses of Republican pol.
icy of government ever heard with.

speech is practicable. 1t covered
the whole ground in dispute, clear
ly, logically and eloquently. Its
