IN THE POLITICAL FIELD.

Under the gulse OF reporting alleged discussions
among Republicans, the Democra ic papers OF this
city have been making desperate effort during the
last week to stir up strife within the party The per
sis,ency and elaborateness OF their efforts have at
tracted considerable attention. Possibly simple
minded Republicans who take their politics from the
newspapers OF the enemy have been deceived and
have actually swallowed all the wild yarns they read
abou the relentless that is about TO be waged by
the friends OF Mr. Platt or Mr. Miller. This is posi-
bic, yet it does seem incredible that any member OF
the party, endowed with mmonsense, could be gued
in this way. could fail to see in these articles a
covert attack upon the Republican organization in
Its entirety, and with distinct object In view
This object, which is OF a twofold character, i'm
mediate and ultimate, IS inure, and, If possible dis
rup; the party. The immediate benefit OF these yarns
TO the Democracy will suggest itself upon moments
reflection. The Democratic leaders have deliberately
stolen the State Senate. They have done so openly and
shamcleSsly, In utter defiance Of law and enlightened
public sentiment The people have been somewhat
slow TO realize the enorm Of the crime that has
been perpetrated against their fundamental rights but
they are awakening mt last, and he political thieves
are alarmed in consequence. Public indignation has
already expressed itself sufficiently to Of the
bodest Of them David B. HILL to advise halt in The
rascaly proceedings. They all know that the place
they occupy is entirely Ddefcnsibc and once the peo
pie understand il fully II will be simply intocIable.
What natural, Therefore than that they should
seek to divert public at ention from themselves by
having their organs raise hue and cry about split
In the Republican party
It IS true that there several leaders OF the he
publican forces In this state and 1t Is equally true tht
they do not always agree upon matters OF party policy
but It does not follow that because OF this fact they
are bent upon DESTROYING another. There Is about
as much truth in this allegation there is In another
frequently heard that all the Federal patronage OF the
state has been given to wing OF the party, wheh
rs matter OF fact, the records show that III mas bee
almost equally divided between the friends OF Mr. Miller
and Mr. Plat. Differences OF opinion sui exist ana
will exist so long As the party lives but 1t can be
said with perfect trutlfunesS that there Is more dis
position today ;he part Of all elements TO unite
IN one solid aggressive army than there has been IN
years aid this desire is going to be ralized, despite
all the efforts OF few mschiefmakers within or wit-
ont the party Republicans becoming exceedingly
TIED OF fighting one another and 1t IS safe 70 prealo,

burton farmers Club.

The "Club" met Nov. II with VIM. Mer-
ril and family of Middlebury at their pleas
ant home, which was named by some of the
Clubites as "SOlid Comfort" The time
until dinner was spent i'm social visiting and
although the day was quite stormy there
was a good attendance.
The visitors present were Mr.. and Mrs.
Randall, Martin Simpson, Alpha Simpson
and family. and Mr.. and Mrs Markham.
The dinner was as usual the best to be
had.
After dinner Mrs. Lucy Woodn, vice.
president, called the meeting to order, and
the Misst Eva Cramer and Myrtle Mason
sang ''Whter than the Snow"
Devotional exercises consisted of reading
the 9Th chapter of Romans and prayer by
the Chaplain, Elder Cramer.
1t was found on consulting the secretary
that all the questions handed in last month
had Miss S. Guilford's name on the back of
them, and as that lady was absent, some
old questions had to be hunted up to fill the
blank. Mr.. Markham speaking on one of
these questions, believes it to be best to set
all kinds of fruit trees in the fall. Mr..
Baldwin gave his views on feeding stock.
The ladies' subject, ''Plants and Flowers"
was next taken up, Mrs. Rose giving us a
splendid talk about these pets of hers. She
loves them and has such good success i'm
raising them. She told a story of how rude
children were made kind and gentle by the
love of flowers. Mrs. Rose also recited a
temperance poem which was excellent.
The subject for the gentlemen ''ls it adj
visable to Lave blinds on horses bridles?"
was discussed. 1t seemed to be the unani-
nous verdict that it is better to use them as
horses travel better and are less liable to be
skittish with them on.
The ladies subject for next meeting is
"What influence does good reading have
upon the inmates of the farmers home" and
for the gentlemen what can we do to
equaliZe the price of our farm products or
avoid a surplus?" Club adjourned to meet
in four weeks with Mr.. and Mrs. f. Nj.

Notice..
TO Our PntrOnS

40 Our fittfOnS.
After carefully considering the matter of
reserving seats, at the entertainments given
in our lecture course, our committee, have
decided upon the following course of action.
First one hundred seats, and no more,
will be placed on reserve sale, the sale OPP
ening at the Association Rooms, on the
evening of the third day preceding the en-
tertainment. No seats will be sold after six
O'Clock on 1.-The day of the entertainment.
The decision is made because of the demand
for reserve seats, and we believe that in
taking this action we are acting fairly by
every ticket helder. The remaining five
hundred seats in the main body of the
church. and the chapel, will be opened for
all. Those seats i'm the rows reserved which
are not sold before six o'clock will be used
at once.
Second, the doors will not be opened be-
fore, 1890 O'clock. This will relieve our
patrons of long, tedious wait before time
of open ing the entertainment.
