In your ''editorial notes. you
unintentionally overlooked two
residents of our village who are
worthy of mention-N. G. Dun
ming and Jas. M. Price. Mr..
Dunning is as good a carpenter
and builder as there is in the
State, and Mr.. Price is also we'll
known builder and contractor.
Messrs. Dunning and Price built
the Milaca school house and
several other public buildings in
this vicinity. They are men that

Mr.. Editor, our people were
loud in their praises Of your com

Certainly such articles will call at
tention to our town and it's re-

aware of the fact that copies Of the
UNION circulate in almost every
state and territory of the Union.
We always have regarded the
UNION as a staunch and time-tried
friend Of Foreston and we are all
proud of our county paper, and
more so now than ever before, and
our business men and citizens
generally will accord it what its
enterprise so richly merits gen
erous patronage.

Street Car Companies Not Responsible.
An incident Of special interest in con-
nection with the electric street car line
Of Halle, Germany, is that the German
government stopped the running Of the
electric cars Immediately after the open
ing ceremony, because they interfered
with the proper working Of the te1e-
grams and telephones. The case came
before the law courts and the judges de-
cided in favor Of the railroad company,
stating that the streets of city were In
tended for general traffic, and that their
course could not be altered, but that the
postal authorities could easily make any
necessary deviation in the line Of the
telegraph and telephone wires 80 as to
place them beyond the influence Of the
electric lines, which use the rails and
earth for the return circuit. New York

Not So Green as He Looked.

A man entered busy city Office few
weeks ago and asked permission to use
the telephone. He walked to the corner
pointed out by one of the clerks, looked
curiously at the instrument and after a
furtive glance toward the other occu-
pants of the room took down the re-
ceiver and gently whispered into it,
"Hullo."
A broad smile passed around the room,
and one Of the younger clerks called out
in patronizing tones, "Oh, no, uncle;
hang up the tube, ring the bell on the
right, then put the tube to your ear anG
talk to that little hole before you"
The man obediently hung up the re-
ceiver and turned toward the speaker.

One Of the meanest Of conversational

course she gets all the credit. lido hate q

have said by herself. hate that sort of
woman, making herself seem 80 clever

she will finish 1t for you. That is the

VICE PRESIDENT HENDERSON.

At q recent meeting Of the stock
holders of the Florida Central and
Peninsular Railroad company, Mr..
John A. Henderson, of this city, was
elected yice-president OF this vast
system of Florida's railroads.
Mr.. Henderson, a lawyer of rare
legal attainments, has been for many
years the general counsel of this cor
poration, and his sagacity and skill
has piloted the company through
many a Scylla and Charybdis in the
traffic business in the early days of
the railroad. His election to the
second place in the organization is
only a deserved compliment to a
faithful officer.

| So would this happy, prospesous
condition Of things resume ito sway
with the return to power Of the dem
ocratic party. That the republican
party has brought about all the OPP
preston so bitterly and truthfully
complained of is truism beyond

time is at hand when the people will
rebuke this false friend and inaugur.
ate the democratic party into power
and when time enough has been had
to knock the shackles from govern
ment forged and rivetted by the re-

onstrated the truth beyond dispute
that the democratic party is the
party of the people, the party of the
constitution, the party of God, in
the preservation of this great coun.
try.
Then, where is the necessity of this
third party? Why need lifelong
democrats 60 off after strange, false
gods? miserable delusion of pater-
nifty in government, manufacturing
vaults upon vaults of money to be
distributed among its infants, not its
strong, valorous men and noble
women, but to its feeble, non-sup-
porting children. Come back; your
old time-tried party is on the very
threshold Of glorious and perma.
nent victory. Be in the fold to enjoy
it. Under her influence and just and
honest administration of government
prosperity with swift wing will re-
turn. The people, the whole people,
will rejoice and the government take
its proper place amid the nations,
the Hottest of them all, because the
best. Then where is the necessity
for this third party?

feGxinR that s0iae wi sl Ini llt
perchan ce Of ~ The acts q
some trading, wire-pulling mach-
mating politicians be placed in
power and at an unexpected time
use his army to break down
our liberties, and usurp the govern.
ment for his own vile pur-
poses. They preferred to trust the
patriotism, and warlike character Of
the citizens rather than to marshal
thousands of hireling soldiers. No
governor Of any state would dare to
send an armed force into any other
state to enforce any process of law, or
even to arrest a violator of the laws
of that state. So jealous are our peo-
pie, as to this feature of our polity,
that even when our visiting volunteer
soldiers are about to enter another
state complimentary courtesies are
exchanged between the governors of
the respective states.
This Pinkerton force and business
should at once be broken up by the
force of the indignation of the Ameri-
can People. Already several of the
states have enacted laws against
them. New Jersey, and Kentucky
have thus spoken, let every state in
the Union follow, let Florida in her
next legislature make it a crime
against the peace and dignity of the
state and the Liberties Of the people,
and fix a heavy penalty, and this
blur upon our nation will be wiped
out. Let the democratic party be
charged with the administration of
government, when the tariff will
be moderated, and the country given
free access to any commerce with the
nations Of the world, and the special
support given by false system of
government to the baronets of the
corporations and concentrated and
monopolized manufactures be thrown
down, and healthy and lively COM
petition in manufactures in our own
country be fostered, and Pinkerton,
like Othello, will sigh, "Mine occu-
patton gone"
This secret force is An outgrowth
Of the war. The war is over except in
the cowardly hearts Of few politi-
clans; and the necessary evils Of An
internecine war should have died
with the calamity which for the time
cursed the country.

The complete success which the

THE WRONG. vALiSE.

A Young Brfdegroom'B Awful Mistake
q Few Hours Before the Wedding.
It was under circumstances of peculiar
difficulty that Alfred c. became

village church before 10 o'clock. Send
ing most Of his luggage on ahead. he
put his wedding toggery in a hand

fairs, and boarded the train at the time
appointed.
Although naturally very exact and
methodical person, he was, not unreason-
ably, rather nervous on this occasion.
and having LEFT his seat to speak to
friend in the forward part of the car just
before reaching the station, he hurried
back as the brakeman called ont the
name Of his place of destination, and
seizing what he supposed was his bag %
it lay in an otherwise empty seat, he was
off and away almost before the train had
come TO standstin. Arriving at his
friends house, he found that there was
m hour ahead OF him before it was time
10 dress, 90 he consigned his bag to the
servant and followed his host into his
"den" to calm his mind with good c.
gar before the momentouS event
But he had hardly made himself COM
Portable before the butler entered witha
countenance that bespoke On extraordi-
nary effort TO maintain his gravity.
