Aiding Fifer's Canvass.

1t was Gen. Grant who said that
the democrats could generally be de-
pended upon to make some blunder
which would help the republicans out
when there was any danger of political
defeat The first big blunder that party
made in the state campaign was the
bringing forward of such a candidate
for the Office of governor as Judge Alt
geld taking the peculiar influences
dominating the convention which eff
fected his nomination. The judges Pc
culiar style of campaigning is blunder
No. Q. The stupendous folly of at
lacking the state institutions, and espe-
cially the assault made upon the man
agement of the state penitentiaries, thus
opening the way for defense of the
excellent prison system now in force
and of making comparison between
the old barbarous democratic system
and the present enlightened, humane,
progressive and economical system in
augurated and established under repub-
ican administrations.
This assault made by Candidate Alt
geld is not an impulse of the moment
or an incident of the campaign. 1t has
been deliberately planned and is being
deliberately executed. At the session
of the general assembly in 1891, under
pretense of formulating a law for the
employment by the state of the labor
of the convicts in the state prisons, the
committee on penal and reformatory
institutions in the house called upor
the commissioners of the Joliet peni
tentiary for copies of all contracts ther

A BOX Party" under the auspices OF
the Ladies' Aid Society, was given in the
church on Thanksgiving evening, Each
box contained cakes, candy, etc, and
they we're sold to the highest bidder. IN
each box was the name of the lady who
donated it,and she was to share the con-
tents and be partner of the purchaser
during the evening. Lots of fun was re-
allied, and a snug fund turned into the
treasury by the party.
Some of our Democratic friends who
participated in the Milford jollihcation
came home full of sorow-because over

he lost about everything but hiinself,and
nearly lost his head-he was so happy.
tfe afterwards recovered his overcoat.

FREDERIoA

Before laying up for the winter our yes
sci captains are now on the alert to seek
to freight as much new corn to the city
as possible while navigation remains
open. We notice greet many wagons
in town to-day laden with new corn for
lanes T. Postles for shipment on his
schooner commanded by Capt. Andrew
Maxson. The grain is in an exception
ally we'll matu.. nd dry condition, and
no doubt will grade we'll when preseated
for inspection in the market.
The telephone line between this place
and FELTON, is undoubtedly a great conve.
nience when in good working order, but
communication is frequently interrupted
by the breaking Of decayed pole or two
which results in an ENHANCEMENT of the
wire. The plan seems to be to replace
the poles a few at a time, and only when
the wiud breaks them off at the ground.
Mr.. Darby who supplies aud erects the
poles, and who has already refurnished
about half the line with substantial ce-
dar poles, insists upon replacing them the
remainder Of the way, but the other stock
holders seem content ts have them eree-
ted only as they tumble down.
The ofice-seekers are still on the qH'
vive and are presumably Of the opinion
that time moves slowly. If the President
elect is thus early, prior to his Inaugural
ton, driven into willing exile upsn the
desolate shores of a southern hog island
for refuge among the reeds and rushes,l IN
order to escape the opportunities of the
hungry throng, what may he reasonably
expect to be subjected to when he emer-
ges from the thicket and stands in the
full glow and focus of the final onslaught
It is a subject for,general congratula-
ton that the dreaded comet is at last
about disposed of Quite a number OF
timid aud dispairiug as well as supersti'
tious persons have suffered many appre-
tensions on account of it. One worthy
lady Of a nervous temperament, in the
vicinity of Bowers Beach, spent the whole
of Sunday night in devout prayer and
supplicatiun. in earnest expectation Of
a terrestrial collapse and final winding
up of all affairs OF carnal nature.
The protracted meeting which began
At the Methodist Protestant Church here
two or three weeks ago still continues.
There has not been the interest mani
tested, however, that characterized the
meeting of last winter When so many
were gathered in Many Of that number
are ready forre-gathering when stronger
kind of binding twine should be pro

in Milton to boom business and, with all

timely beginning to do something may
be successful. We know Of nothing bet
ter than a caunery to give employment
te the many, especially the womon and
the children, aud the benefit arising
therefrom will be felt in all branches of
trade. If the people earn money they
will surely spend it and the merchants
will sell their goods, the butchers their
meats. and the farmers their vegetables.
Those who are doing business in town
should see that this movement is made a
a success, it is to their advantage As well
as tn all others, and unless something of
the kind is done to build up business
the working people will have TO leave
