AN AUTUMN lDYL.

The rich and mellow haze
OF Indian summer days,
Dulls the suns bright rays,
And brilliantly displays
The glorious foliage.
OF autumn.
And we dream fair DRAINS
In the moons bright beams.
But are chilled in the steams
Of its sllvery CLEANS,
For Winters at
The door.
And soon the brown and scar
Of November will appear;
But little need we fear
Fen DEFENDERS frigid cheer
II we but choose
Sensible Shoes,
And now We'll gently tell
Ola firm you know full well;
IT'S Boots and Shoes they sell,
On whose merits We could dwell;
But "nuff ced;"
On E. ]. DAvEY call.

THE COUNTY.

The result in Iowa county is glorious
Cleveland has plurality of 81 on a
full yote,-the largest relative to popu-
lation, ever cast in the county. The
county also gives like pluralities to
Peck for governor; and Krouskop for
congress-; and Baker for state senator
has plurality of 76. J. Montgomery
Smith is elected assemblyman by "a
plurality, and the Democrats have also
elected w. II. Curry, treasurer, by 1874;
Anton Imhoff, Jr., sheriff, by rs;
Henry Halverson, county clerk, by 1872;
Robert Wilson, coroner, by AZ; Thos.
81. Arthur, surveyor, by IS.
The republicans have secured Geo.
R. Whitman, district attorney, by $50;
Thos. J. Jones, superintendent, by ia;
NJ. J. Tappins, clerk of court, by 122;
and William II. Prideaux, register OF
deeds, by Is.
The Democratic victory in the
county is indeed very pleasing, and
comes as a result of the awakening OF
the people to their true political in
terests. And moreover it was pleas,
ing because it was we'll earned. Good
democratic literature was generally
circulated; and about thirty good
Democratic meetings were held in the
several tov as. The verdict of the
people is that they believe unnecessary
taxation is unjust taxation, and that
they have confidence in the men
named as the representatives of Dem
ocracy. Following is given the vote
for president and governor:

THE CITY.

The most interesting political con-
test in the history of Mineral Point
was the "quiet campaign Of 1892"
Great interest was manifested by all
parties. The enthusiasm was the most
spontaneous and genuine on the part
Of the Democrats; but both Repub-
lican and Democratic workers were
well organized and put forth their best
efforts to secure victory. The result
was a total poll of 702 voters, the
largest ever recorded, and victory
for the Democrats by plurality Of 43
for Cleveland and Sc for Peck. The
home candidates on the Democratic
ticket received a good endorsement.
J. Montgomery Smith for member of
assembly received a plurality of 12O;
w. 81. Curry. for county treasurer,
1913; and Albert S. White for district
attorney ISL.
The carrying of Mineral Point city,
which has invariable gone republican
at general elections, was glorious
result for the local democracy; and
especially as was due not to any stay
at home vote but by getting out the
the full vote

more appreciated than it is. In fact in
cookery in our homes it is safe to say
that from lack of scientific knowledge
one-third cost is added to family ex-
penses. But concerning other economies
Playfair says: ''The horseshoe nails
dropped in the streets are carefully col
lected and reappear as swords and guns.
The main ingredient of the ink with
which 1 now write was probably once
the broken hoop Of an old beer-barrel
The clippings of the travelling tinker are
mixed with the parings Of horses hoofs
and the worst kinds Of woolen rags, and
these are worked up into an exquisite
blue dye, which graces the dress of
courtly danes. The dregs of port wine,
carefully decanted by the topper. are
taken in the morning as a seidlitz pow
der to remove the effect of the debauch.
The offal Of the streets and the wastings
of coal gas reappear carefully preserved
in the lady's smelling bottle, or are used
by her to flavor blanc manges for her
friends. All this thrift of material is an
imitation Of the economy Of nature,
which allows no waste. Everything has
its destined place in the process of the
universe, in which there is not blade Of
grass or even a microbe too much if we
possessed the knowledge to apply them to
their fitting purposes"

thing been done about the depositing OF
dead horses near tho American river
bank, to which reference was made a
week ago in the RECORD UNION?

OUR wagonways are described by
Rorpel''S Weekly of September Il, 1892,
as a crushing mass of iniquities and
drawbacks to civilization. The tendency
ofpopulation toward the cities, the abar-
donment of farms, and even the modern
development Of ''slums," are largely
ascribed to bad roads, which are said to
be worse and more numerous here than
in any other civilized country. Bad
roads, it is argued, cause schools and
churches to be neglected, prevent social
intercourse in the country and make life
in the rural districts cheerless, isolated
and narrow. The question is, is not this
Indictment true? Is il not true that bad
roads are barriers not only to trade and
production, but in large degree to civil
ization?

that J. \. Andrews of that place was last
week treated to complete and genuine
surprise. He was invited ont by one OF
his friends, and on his return to the house
found IL in possession Of many friends
ana neighbors. on his demand to know
the cause, he was presented with an ele-
giant sideDOard, stocked ready for use,
which had been set up during his alb
sence, as mark OF appreciation by the
people OF that community for his faithful
discharge of the duties Of Postmaster Of
Elk Grove for many years and his worth
as citizen. Mr.. Andrews was so taken
by surprise that he was unable TO respond
for some time, but finally managed to
say, May it never 90 dry" He then
proceeded to dispense the viands of the
sidebo&rd among the guests. A collation.,
with toasts, followed, and after wishing
Mr. Andrews and family many years OF
happiness and prosperity. tie company
parted for home.
