FAIRBURY, ILL.

The County Fair is now 60
ing on and much interest is being
manifested by the people through
out the county with their presence
and exhibitions. There were some
good races on dnesday.
The Republicans are preparing to
carry each township in the county,
with an increased majority of foul
years ago, thus making this district
surely Republican.
Mr.. 5. B. Turner of Springfield
was visitor at the fair last Tues
day and was given a grand recep
tion by the Republicans
of that township. D. A. Fraley
the editor of the Blade, a staunch
Republican paper, made things
pleasant for the Capital man by en-
tertainment and attractions which
were ablast in that city this week
The Young Mems serenading ano
glee clubs are two which any met
ropolitan community might bt
proud of, and is composed of some
of the best gentlemen and business
men of Fairbury. Such active, anc
enterprising young men as G. J
Merritt, W. G. Wade, J. Schancl
W. B. Bradley and John Summer
Vile composes the club. and yo1
could not wish to meet a set O
young men more hospitable and &C
commodating than these gentlemen
The colored voters of this count,
are safe. for the ticket
Mr.. Turner was the guest of Sen
ator Chas Borgardus, one of tn
leading and influential business NAL
as well as politicians of the 18th
district.
D. A. Farley, editor and proprie
tor of the Blade, is rendering valu
able services to the party and pee
pie generally by the manner il
which he is conducting his journa
in the interest of the peoples wel
fare. The paper is worth the COZ
sideration and perusal of all tn
people in his county; besides, tn
editor is able intellectually to cop
with any of the great questions il
volved in this campaign.
The state capital., 1892-09-10
Against Land Grants.

The democratic platform attacks in a
wholesale way the entire policy of land
grants, forgetting the fact that the
earliest grants were inaugurated by
democrats, notable instance being
that of the Illinois Central railroad-an
enterprise championed by Senator
Stephen A. Douglas, and that measure
proved so much of far-seeing statesman
ship that he, nor anyone else, need not
now apologize to the modern demo-
cratic obstructionists. The restoration
of lands to the people by Cleveland,
and the stealing of these lands by the
republicans are rare specimens of cam
paign fiction, mostly revealing the
ignorance, or design, of the parties who
so wildly proclaim the theft. 1t may
be impossible to convince a bourbon
that the land grant policy of congress
was one of the best features ever in
augurated by that body.
Properly considered, congress took
these lands from the wilderness, where
they were valueless, because inaccessi-
BILE, and gave them to the roads as a
bonus for the construction of the trunk
lines, by which the roads did the pio-
neer work done by the emigrant fifty
years ago. Going in advance the road
gave him market at his door, with
church, schoolhouse and post office con
comitants, and but for this he woulo
have been compelled to wait half cen
tury for these facilities even had he
dared to go thousand miles ahead o1
civilization for the lands alone. a
proper presentation of the case woult
be that the republicans actually gave
those lands to the people, and the resto
ration of the unearned lands was fa
vored by them and brought to salts
factory conclusion under Payson, re
publican congressman from Illinois
chairman of the special committee.
