Ex-President James X. Polk and Mr..
Samuel j. Tilden are both in the same
legal historical box. Neither of the n
made "A will that stood "A contest in the
courts.-New York Recorder.

founded OH good business principles. -
Worcester Spy.

tectionists make to tree trade. 1t looks
well, but it won't work. as Salisbury has
found out.
There will be sixty names printed on
~
district tickets. Thirty-two crosses to
make before your vote is complete. There
will be some hearty curses heaped on the

Harrison lies i'm the fact that James q.
Blaine has announced that he Is not
candidate. Let Blaine but wink the
other eye and then compare public senti-
ment.-Woonsocket Reporter.

land can with equal safety vote for Mr..

an a flair of Tammanyville, but of the
State.
We understand that the mayor has
issued an order excluding from the police
stati on every person who IL not there on
business connected with the police depart
ment. Even the omnipotent and ubiqui-
tous newspaper reporter is not exempt
from the operations of the order. Whilst

not but believe that the public service
will be benefited by the new order OF
