The lecture on Village Improve
ments . last Wednesday evening by
B. G. Northrop was worthy of a much
larger audience than it received. II
was replete with good suggestions
and practical hints. The speaker re
ferred to many villages that had been
increased in population and wealth
through the good work of the vii
lage Improvement society. He spoke
very complimentary of our village,
its excellent location and beautiful
surroundings. We hope good re-
suits will come from this lecture, but
we should all keep this fact in mind
that to beautify our village every
body must take a hand in it. Not
only should the property owners do
all in their power to improve their
promises, but those who rent houses
or tenements should take pride in
keeping the grounds about them
neat and attractive. Throwing pa
pers and other rubbish in the streets
should also cease. When all become
interested in this matter then we
may expect good results.

County Politics.

| Mr.. EDIToR:-
The recent animated canvass for the Sena
| torship brings to m ind the fact that Wolcot
had the position in 1873, while Cambridg,
and Johnson held it so recently as 1882 and
1884. One other thought occurs Cambridge
has held the position only three times in the
past 40 or so years, (if our memory serve)-
and then, only by acciderfSr~ Hon. Elisha
Bentley was elected " under-bolt," as against
Henry Stowell, ESQ.,, 80 or more years ago
Hon. and Rev. Edwin Wheeloek was elected
in 1876, and nominated by reclamation
while Others in the east were striving for the
position The Others following in succession
in S7S and 1880: Mr.. Parker of Wolcott
and Mr.. Gleed of Morristown. Hon. j. By
ron Page was elected from cambridge in
1882, and was nominated while the canvass
was heated - for other parties
Cambridge has ever been well treated when
representative material has been produced.
In 1876 the Senatorship was held by Edwin
Wheelock Assistant Jtad,ss& j > III. Page, and
Judge of Probate, W. H. Griswold The
honors were bestowed upon our old con-
sentative town.
So, all in all, we are content Until 1876
conventions were held for the nomination of
County officers by the old-system, denomi-
mated mass conventions" with great ex-
pense to the towns outside of the County Seat.
Often 50'to $50 men from the different
towns assembled and held the caucus in loca-
tions given to the several delegates. This
system was abandoned the day of the strife
between Richard +. Parker and Philip K
Gleed, which resulted in the nomination of
Mr.. Wheelock, as before stated. Since that
date the Repu blicans have elected delegates
at home under the "caucus-system, !" with
the basis of three times the number desig-
mated for state conventions
Little by little, we have changed the ma
ture of our caucus system until it is now
merely machine run on a predetermined
plan. For instance, should candidate de-
sire some position on the County ticket he
and his friends arrange the program before
hand and everything works Just like clock
work-thus free ballot and fair count, which
doctrine as party we hold to only in name,
as 1T is 'misnomer,'' in fact. 1t would
not greatly surprise old-fashioned people to
see revolution in this respect, and ma
chine politics" a thing of the past. So
might it bel -
