WEDNESDAY, Dec. Il, iosz'
LOOK Ar WHAT FOLLOWS.
The Days are Gliding swiftly
Along.
This 10 the last issue of The
DURHAM RECORDER for the year
Of 1892, and the last year of its
life finds it as vigorous as when
it began its existence rs years
ago, and the editor hopes to live
to see it just twice its present
age. -.
Wise heads have predicted
the destruction of the earth at
various past dates, but time
moves on without taking any
notice of these small "frys."
Sons others have fixed the
evsntful day in the year of
1897, but we do net let that
bother our brain. What we are
trying to do now is to run afirst-
class weekly journal, and keep
ourselves in readiness for the
general wind-up of affairs, let
it come when it may.
A great political revolution,
in which We tsok an sctivepart,
has taken place during this
year, the outcome of which will
be known to all in absut four
years, the time set for the
finish, and who knows but that
the nillsnnisl may dawn upon
US about that time! With the
proper hands at the helm the
old ship may run ashore. There
are many things We have to at
tend to before We are ready for
the landing.
The newspaper man owes SONS
bills, probably, that it is neces-
sary for him to settle before he
can be landed safely, and in sr-
der to do this it becomes the
christian duty of all who are in
arrears to fix up past dues al
once. Some may possibly fall
overheard and not reach the
shore at all. Such will be the
fate Of those who can and won't
pay their bills, and we would
like to warn all such now, thai
when you are cast overheard
you need not call upon US fol
help at that late hour. We have
done what we could for YOU
advancement while in the work.
we have thrown our paper il
between ysu and this danger a

you have read it with cage
gusto, but when the bills wer
presented you said: 81 tol,

STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION.
President Heg Announces His Plans
for This Years Editorial
Excursion.

Lake Geneva Herald: The President
of the Wisconsin Press association de-
sires to annouce that arrangements have
been made for tri ip to Florida, and the
secretary will issue circular giving the
details in few days. The association
will be gone ten days, and most of the
time will be spent in Florida. The
route is via Cincinnati, through the
beautiful bluegrass section of Kentucky
passing Lexington, Ky, and Hartman,
Tenn, where short stops may be made,
Chattanooga, Tenn, Atlanta, Macon and
Savannah, Georgia, thence to Jackson
vile, st. Augustine, possibly Tampa
Bay and other interesting portions of
Florida. A short ocean trip is one of
the possibilities and ride down either
the enchanting st. Johns river or the
deeply picturesque Indian River is a
certainty. Several other pleasing
features are being arranged for, which
will be announced later on. The trip
will be somewhat different route from
that taken last year and Chattanooga is
the only place visited last year that will
be seen this year. An opportunity will
be given those who did not 60 last year
to stop over and visit Lookout Mountain,
the battlefield of Chickamauga, and all
the interesting points in this vicinity.
The expense of the trip will be about
the same as last year and will be within
the means of every newspaper man and
woman in the state. The president
hopes that every editor in Wisconsin
will write to him giving his views on
the proposed trip and offering sug-
gestions for making it as perfect as
possible.

EDUCATE YOUR GIRLS.

Give your girls a good substantial
school education. Teach them how to
get up good meal. Teach them how
to wash and iron clothes, how to darn
stockings and sew on buttons, how to
make their own dresses and under
clothing. Teach them how Ito make
shirts, how to make bread. Initiate
them into all the mysteries of the
kitchen, dining-room and parlor Let
them know that dollar is only hun
dred cents and how to make it 90 as
far as possible. Teach them to wear
thick clothing in winter and warm,
thick shoes. Teach them to do the
marketing and every day to learn
practical, common sense lesson of some
sort, and above all, self reliance, which
is of inestimable worth. Teach them
to avoid all dissolute young men as
acquaintance or companions for life.
Better be single all their days than
make such alliances. Early teach them
the essentials of life-t1uth, honesty,
uprightness-then at a suitable time,
if possessing healthy constitution, on
finding these requisites, let them marry,
and depend upon it, that the veal and
the woe of all their after life will be the
outcome of their early training and
your patient interest. And added to
all this give them the best intellectual
cOmpanionship in the authors thew read
as we'll as your own personal sympathy;
as you would share with your daughters
their pleasures, their pains, their hopes,
their disappointments, so you must
share their intellectual growths. BY
this very sympathy you Will make the
intellectual and moral atmosphere
breathed by your children in the books
they may read, all pervasive and most
potent for good, and when they are
introduced into general society, they
will have touchstone within them.
selves, that will seperate the true from
the false. At home with all high and
noble souls, by mere instinct, they will
fall into the usages of conventional life
and they will feel at ease anywhere
among the cultured, but never with the
ignoble, the vulgar and the base So
with good cooking and all the rest of
the household life perfected, then
shall your daughters, happy themselves
IN the fact that they are mistress of
their position, be calculated to make
all around them happy.

EX-GOVERNOR LUCIUS FAIRCHILD

Gen. Lucius Fairchild of "palsy"
fame, has been let lose upon the un-
suspecting little towns up the Wisconsin
the old Bourbon stock "who never
learns and never forgets.' He is still
fighting the issues of thirty years ago
In the old-time "bloody-shirt" style,
but vigorously denounces and con-
demns the democratic party for insist
ing that the Bennett Law is not settled.
The Bennett Law was upheld by the
republican party two years ago as one
of the underlying principles of its polit-
lcal creed. Has the party ever repud-
lated its attitude upon that question?
Such old fogies and demagogues like
''palsy' Fairchild still guide the g. o. p.
1t is the party of progress, of course
Enterprise.
We are surprised and ashamed of
our brother editor across the river for
penning such lines as the above about
an honorable soldier and citizen of our
state who has held the highest office in
the gift of the people of his state. He
has been too brave and honorable a
man to receive such slurs even from a
democratic source. We can differ with
a man in politics but we ought to be
courteous to our peers even though
we do not agree with them. The
Editor of the Enterprise might be
proud of the reputation Gen. Lucius
Fairchild's holds in the hearts of the
people of Wisconsin. His fame is
beyond reproach wherever known and
such remarks only reflect upon him
who is base enough to pen them. Re-
publicans remember such an insult
upon one of our most revcred comrades.

County Clerk.

Mr. S. I. Young, the present county
clerk, considering himself unjustly
treated by the delegates to the demo-
cratic county convention, has come out
as an independent candidate for that
Office with strong encouragement among
members of both parties. He has been
an obliging and courteous clerk who
has made many friends since he has
been in office and now asks them to
vote for his return. If reelected he
promises to discharge the duties of said
office, as he has in the past, to the best
of his ability.

OVATION TO SPOONER.
The Largest Political Meeting Ever
Held in Grand Rapids.

The city was thronged with people
Monday night who had assembled from
all parts of the county to hear the
Hon. John c. Spooner, candidate for
Governor on the Republican ticket.
The large opera house capable of accom-
modating 2000 people, was crowded to
the door, standing room being at a
premium. 1t is conceded to have been
the largest audience that any man ever
had in Grand Rapids. A special train
from Marshfield brought over 400 peo-
pie, among them we notice James O'Neil
candidate for Attorney General on the
republican ticket, W. H. Upham, w. A.
Scott, John DETROIT, Fred Upham,
James Cameron and L. B. Kelly. The
Marshfeld band of 20 pieces accom-
panied the party. The Twin City Band
met the speaker at the c., NJ. & st. Paul
depot and escorted him to the Witter
House.
A temporary platform was erected in
the opera house upon which was seated
with the speaker several of the promi-
nent republicans in Wood county. The
speaker was introduced by Mr. Geo. E.
Hoskinson, president of the republican
club. He introduced Mr.. Spooner as a
man who was perhaps personally un-
known to many in this section but
whose name was known to everybody.
He referred to him as a man whose in
fuence in the councils of the Republi-
can party of the nation was second to
no mans, and whose brilliant career in
the United States Senate reminded the
people in his state of the lamented
Carpenter. His more recent great
victory in the Supreme Court Of the
state, where he went in behalf of the
people to fight for equal representation
in fair and constitutional apportion-
ment was in the minds of all. The
reception that followed this 1nfroduc-
ton took rank rightup at the top with
the other big welcomes in different
parts of the state.
Before Mr.. Spooner arose from his
chair on the platform some one in the
audience shouted, whats the matter
with Spooner?" and the reply of "He's
all right" from 2O00 throats made the
lights dance and the building fairly
trembled Then there was an immedl-
ate and prolonged cheer which by way
emphasis, was combined with the ear
splitting notes of tin horns on the out
side, whose manipulators had caught
the enthusiasm within. 1t was such a
demonstration that Mr.. Spooner was
prompted to return the compliment by
inquiring "What's the matter with
Grand Rapids" "And Centralia" put
in one of the Republicans from across
the river.
For over two hours Mr.. Spooner held
the rapt attention of his audience on
the tariff and wild cat money questions.
His argument was plain, simple, honest
standing the English language could
readily appreciate. He tore the demo-
cratic platform to pieces and left it
threadbare with nothing left upon which
an honest democrat could rest upon.
His speech was free from malice towards
his opponents, and he offended no one,
but on the contrary made votes for
himself and the party to which he
belongs.
Before closing he referred to each
member on the state ticket with him,
as being honest and well qualified for
the offices for which they were nomi-
mated.

Democratic Speech.

The Hon. j. NJ. Morrow, of Sparta,
was greeted with large audience at
the opera house last evening to hear
him on the political issues of the day
from a democratic standpoint. He
labored hard to apologize for the free
trade and money planks in their plat
form. Mr., Morrow is nice old
gentleman but he is on the wrong side
in this campaign.
