Every one who expects to be a
candidate for any Office in the
county next year, should get his
name before the people at once, so
that he may have an even chance
with other candidates who have al
ready announced their names.
Those that put their names be-
fore the people early, have a deci-
dcd a Vantage, from the fact, that
men are making up their minds,
and directly, or indirectly, pledg-
ing themselves to the support Of
candidates who they know are in
the field, not knowing who all will
be candidates when the slate is fill
ed, hence, you often hear men say,
that they are pledged, otherwise,
they would go for some candidate
who had made his announcement
late in the canvass. There is as
much in the start to make a sue.
cessful race, as there is in the speed
one makes on the "home stretch, u
so let the slate be made up, that
the people may decide upon the
men that they think will best sub
serve their interest, and best pro.
mote the interest of the people o.

There will be a large crowd in
Lawrenceburg, next Monday. 1t
will be first Monday, the day that
the Quarterly Court convenes.
That body will act upon some mat
tiers that is material to every tax
payer in the county. This will
doubtless bring to town a MAORI
ty of the best farmers in the coun-
ty,for if there is any one thing more
than another that will bestir the
farmers of the country, it is that of
taxes. They have long felt the bur
dens of taxation, and when their
money is to be expended, they
want to know that it is appropria-
ted judiciously, and then they are
satisfied. Our people have always
been liberal when they thought
that their liberality would promote
the interest of the county. They
will come to town in great num-
bers next monday, to ascertain in
person, if it is to the best interest
of the county to build a new Jail,
and upon their decision, which
will be voiced in the county court,
every one should, and must sub
nit.
We have noticed in the county
court, that some of the members
seldom go upon record. They with
hold their vote until the full vote
is cast, and then have their vote
recorded with the majority, if they
have them recorded at all. This is
not right, neither does it show
that independence and self reliance
that should be shown by every
man who has duty to perform.
The majority is not Away right,
but it is democratic to submit to a
majority rule; but every man
should have the manhood to re-
cord his vote with the minority, if
conscientiously thinks he is in
the right. Ifhe does not so act, he
is simply fgurehead, and does not
deserve the confidence of the peo-
pie he represents.

There should be a way to COM
pei a constant attendance of a quo
rum of democrats when the House
is in session, and if it isn't put in
operation there should be some new
men pushed to the front as leaders.
With the present majority in the
House there is no excuse for the
absence of a democratic quorum
even for asingle hour. A very SIM
pie and effective way to keep mem
bers in their seats is to publish the

Senator Stewart in his TRADE against
President Cleveland, in the senate, said
that he did not think that the president
had an exalted opinion of the opinion Of
the senate or the house. If the senate
permits stewart to consume any more of
its valuable time in speaking upon
things that are not germane to the vital
issues of that body, the whole people
will be justifable in forming the same
opinion. Congress has been in session
about 8 weeks and stewart has con-

OLD CAMBRIDGE.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Thinking some of the
sights and places of historic interest
about Cambridge might be of interest
to your readers I write. Twenty
minutes ride from BoWdoin Square
will bring you here. Fine residences,
well kept lawns and neatly trimmed
hedges greet the eye on every side.
Here we find the Oldest college in
America; old Massachusetts Hall is
the Oldest Of the college buildings and
the lectures and examinations ARE
held here. The Agassiz museum is
open to visitors, also Peabody muse
UNI. A little out of Harvard Square
is the Washington elm, under it's
branches, in 1875, Gen. Washington
took command of the American army.
A great stone or monument COM
memorates the event. Near this tree
is a cemetery, in which is said to be
buried the first soldier KILLED in the
war of the revolution! From this
tree a walk through Garden street
will bring us to Brattle STREET. Near
by, amid trees and flowers of great
variety, was the home of Henry w.
Longfellow. 1t is a'duaint, old fash
toned house; in this house Gen.
Washington made his headquarters,
and high over the front door is the
little semi circular window, though
which the great souled poet looked
out on the wonderous beauties spread
out around him. The house f. still open
and visitors are always welcome.
These are among the things to be seen
about Old Cambridge. A. M. r.

FREE BALLOT AND 4 FAIR COUNT.

The ". Y. Tribune in an able article
on the question of destroying the
Federal election laws, as is being now
attempted by one branch of congress
says:
For thirty two years our party has
stood for the purity Of elections, for a
free ballot and an honest count. Of
all it's glories- the thirty two are
radiant with them this crowns all,
that it has persistently and unceas-
ingly labored to establish beyond any
question the right of every American
citizen to vote once, and only once,
and have his vote counted. 1t has
1egislated to that end, and it's legisla-
ton is on the statute books. IF it has
any fault, it is that it falls short in eff
ficacy, and in spite Of it's crimes
against the ballot defeat in scores Of
communities the honest voters will.
By the operation of these laws no
honest voter has ever suffered hard
ship or wrong, nor has any ever been
deprived Of his vote. They simply
of the polls in the election of Presi-
dent and members of Congress. The
officials intrusted with this function
are selected by Judges OF the Federal
courts. Is there any body Of men in
the country in whom the people have
greater confidence than those who
compose the Federal judiciary? What
fool or knave will rise up and say that
any harm or anything but good can
come from the supervision of the
polls under the direction of the Judges
of the Federal courts?
1t is proposed to repeal these laws,
and leave the Democratic party
where it was in 1854 60, free to work
it's own sweet will with elections and
election returns regardless of votes
or voters. 1t seems a good time to
call halt in that direction, and if
necessary block the way to all legis
Iation. until the assurance is given
that the small safeguards we now
have against dishonest and fraudulent
elections shall not be utterly thrown

more during the week, does not go to
the right spot, but the people are Gre
ating a homemade currency for
themselves by using certified checks
in paying hands, settling local &C
counts and purchasing grain and cot
ton. The bank circulation has in
creased $4,000, 900, but the decrease on
deposits Of national banks alone, May
to July II, was $1e3, 16e, 5ss, and dur
ing the past month Withdrawals have
also been heavy. Little money comes
back as yet from timid boards, and
the paralysis of exchange is nearly as
complete as ever, but that very fact
pushes each section and city into re-

eminent and Wall Street. Many con-
