AN ACQUISITION TO THE CoUNTY.-Mr. Z.
A. Wilson, of Pylesville, returned home, last
Saturday. from New York, where he attended
public auction of standard bred horses raised
on Kalamazoo Stock Farm, Kalamazoo, Michi-
gan. MIR Wilson, on behalf of himself, Mr..
William f. Wilson and Mr.. T. Redding,
bought tinely-bred horse, Archduke 1874,
whose pedigree will recommend him to horse
breeders Archduke is three years old, dark
bay, splendidly formed, and when fully devol
oped will measure 16 hands in height and
weigh l200 lbs. He was sired by Anteeo
whose record is 2.16I. Antee is a son of the
great horse Electioneer 125, who was sold for
S5l 900, md was the sire of Palo Alto, 20S3,
and other noted horses. Archduke's dam
is soprano, one of whose colts sold at auction
last FriGay, for 81, 200. The average price Of
the horses sold on that day was over 5000.
ArchduAe has shown 2.20 gate in quarter
mile spurts. The owners of this valuable
horse deserve credit for their efforts to i'm
prove the breed of horses in Hartford county.
The introduction Of electricity as motive
power for street railways has greatly depre-
ciated the market price of farm and ordinary
draft horses, so that the raising of this kind
of stock is no longer profitable At the same
time good driving horses command as high
prices ever. Almost any farmer can raise
horse or two every year and in order to do
this with profit they must turn their efforts
to the production of well-bred horses. The
enterprise shown by Mr.. Wilson and his as
sociates therefore deserves recognition.

Governor oieaves Reelected by an Esti

AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept. 1.-THE victorious
trnmpeting of the Republican elephant is
sounding throughout all Maine and its
giant footprints are plain In the land.
Yesterday was cd day for Republicans
and a correspondingly bad one for the
Democrats, but the result was not alto
gether unforeseen. To rain and general
apathy is due the light vote, and, while
the Democrats admit defeat. they do not
show symptom of encouragement.
The Prohibitionists and Populists are
not largely in evidence, 80 far as returns
indicate. A heavy rain put quietus
upon the telegraph and telephone wires,
but returns have been received by the As
ISOLATED Press from over one hundred
cities and towns. and these indicate that
the state has reelected Governor Cleaves
(Rep), over Charles F. johnson Dem. J,
by majority which will exceed $1,000.
the largest in the history Of the party.
The Republicans have carried every
county In the state and it is estimated
that the Legislature will have working
Republican majority of 1875, which insures
the reelection of Senator William p.
Frye. Hon. Thomas b. Reed has been re-
elected to congress by plurality esti-
mated at 10000. Hon. Nelson Dingley,
Hon. Seth L. Milliken and G. A. Boutelle
are also reelected to congress by majori-
ties ranging from six to nine Thousand
The total vote will probably exceed ITO, 00o.
