THE COUNTY TICKET.

The official count of the returns
has been completed and does not
change the result as published last
week.
It is good ticket, and is already
as good as elected, since there is no
probability of any opposing ticket.
The republicans have held no county
convention for nominations, and the
third party is too weak in this county
to make a nomination.
There are doubtless some who feel
sufficiently disappointed at the fail
ure of their favorites to secure the
nomination, to impel them to scratch
the ticket, or refrain from voting,
but they will get over this feeling
before election day, and remember
only that they are democrats.
Notwithstanding the successful
outcome of this new method of max
ing nominations, there will be many
who will heartily favor a return to
the old method of nominating in
convention; and it would not be sur.
prising if the sentiment of the county
should undergo a complete change
on this subject before the next elec-
ton occurs.

WHY TENIILATE TIE SPLEEN
OF THE ENEMY?

1t is subject Of frequent COM
ment among the rank and file of the
true democracy, who are democrats
from principle, as to why it is that
so many of the papers in the state
that claim to be democratic seem so
swift and ready to ventilate in their
columns the splenetic effusions Of
disgrunt!ed sore-heads, alias de-
feated and disappointed place-hunt-
ers. styling themselves third party
ties. The Times Union, for instance,
the most widely circulated paper in
the state, soon after the democratic
ticket was nominated at Tampa, pro-
claimed its advocacy thereof; yet, in
almost every issue since then, it has
devoted whole columns TO articles
from anonymous supporters of third
partyism, highly abusive of the
democratic convention and of the
democrats who composed it, even
going so far as to devote nearly q
column recently, on the same line,
from that notorious remnant of
carpet.bagism in Florida, w. K.
Cessna. Newspapers that are Loyalty
supporting the democratic nominees
should relegate these vilifiers of
democracy to some organ of their
own stamp in which to parade their
abuse, upon the scriptural enuncia:
tion that che that is not for me is
against me-" Third partyites, like
the tabled wolf in the garment Of
the lamb, are loudly proclaiming
themselves to be democrats in order.

The third railroad IN the United
States was built in Florida from Tai

done by Richard Keith Call, of whom
history can report very much. Was
it nothing for a Yulee to build a road
through the sand and swamps
further south; and what greater
achievement in any country, or any
department, than the building of the
two hundred miles of railroad in West

and beaming with population, enter

THE BATTLE OF'9s.

IHE BATTLE OF'92.
The gauge Is set and the battle of
ballots is on. This great Republic
will feel from center to the outer
most bounds of its great domain the
throes of the struggle
The people have met in the persons
of their representatives and have
named their leaders, and proclaimed
the principles upon which they stand
and for which they make the contest,
Grover Cleveland and A. E. Stew
enson stand for the great democratic
party and Benjamin Harrison and
Whitelaw Reid for the republican
party; and now comes the work and
contest.
The sentiment and opinion of this
great country divided with Hamilton,
the leader on the one side, and
Jefferson on the other, and from the
date of that division, there has
been two great parties represent
ing ideas - Hamilton representing
centralized government; Jefferson a
government by the people, and the
autonomy of the individual states.
Hamilton's idea was born out of
the remains of glittering royalty yet
remaining in the affections of some;
Jefferson's idea sprang from the same
spirit which gave us the constitution,
and was purely democratic, or repub-
lican as at first named.
Hamilton's idea has of necessity
undergone several changes, in the
progress of things.
Out OF it was born the great whig
party which lived awhile and passed
away. A spasmodic effort was made
to fill its place by mongrel, called the
know-nothing party, but it "died a
borning." Then came the republican
party the foe of the democratic party
to-day. On the other hand the demo,
cratic party is to-day what it was
when organized under the lead of
Jefferson, founded upon principle
eternal as truth; like the constitution
it is for the people and recognizes no
sovereignty but that which resides
in the citizen.
To-day the republican party is
the champion and defender of high
protective tariff, a Capitalization of
unlimited power in the national gov
eminent at Washington. The repub
lican idea of tariff has given birth to
great corporations, concentrating the
manufacturing interests OF the coun-
try in the hands of few, creating
an oligarchy in the midst of re-
public.
The democratic party is advocat-
ing a tariff for revenue only, with
incidental protection for our younger
industries. On these great issues the
battle is to be fought. Upon the
success of the democratic party
hangs the fate of this republic and
the liberties of the people. May the
God of nations inspire us with the
spirit of a true patriotism and a
burning love of country to COM
plete spirit of self-sacrifice and de-
votion that will compel a victory
