a partial eclipse of Democratic vision.
We will assume for sweet charities
sake that the latter was the real
thought in ''Pikos' alleged mind
when he aimed the above satirica
and caustic sentences presumably at
our County Commissioners. We do
not bear their burdens, or speak
their minds, and the Press has only
this apology to offer for its action in
the matter. 1t bid for the work and
was awarded the contract, and so
far as it is concerned it offers the
same kindly alternative to those
Democrats who desire to read the
statement, as for many many years
the Democrats of this county offered
to their Republican brethern. If
they wished to see the statement it
was necessary to subscribe for the
paper which published it, and was
paid full rates too, for the work.
Our Republican friends did not and
were not then advised to borrow
beg or steal" their information.
They got it by paying for it, and
they also paid their full share of
taxes TO pay for it's printing, Every
thing was lovely and Pike and his
friends, there were ostensibly 10S of
them in 1885 out of over 1000 Demo-
cratic votes cast, floated along on
the unruffled tide gently murmur-
ing "see how we apples do swim. p"
The unheard of audacity of hav-
ing Republican paper on the lone
green spot" has been psrpetrated,
and the apples are not retaining
their adhesive qualities so persisten-
ly as before. This is the unpardon-
able sin to persons of ''Pikos" ilk,
who really care nothing for the peo-
pies interests and are only concerned
because the grist does not all go to
their mill.

OUR FIRE PROTECTION.

Last week some of the firemen ex-
amining the fire hose found several
lengths, in which water had been
allowed to remain, frozen up and
useless without being thawed out.
The Joints were taken to the cellar
of the Court House and put in prop
er order. Some people may retort
that the firemen should have seen
that the hose was properly cared
for after the fire at Rutan's, the last
time it was used, but such would
fail to answer the pertinent en-
quiry as to why men who volunteer
to act in that capacity and without
pay, should spend their time not
only at fires, but after, in such work
as drying and cleaning the hose, es-
pecially when no proper place for
such work is provided by the Bor-
ough. The hydrants are no protec-
ton from fire unless the hose is in
working order, and if it is not, our
security from the devouring ele-
ment is nothing but a mockery.
The Borough should have suitable
and convenient house for the pro-
lection of its hose carriages and lad
der truck. There should be room
in it to properly care for the ap-
paratus, and facilities for warming
it in winter so that everything could
be comfortably done. That the
town has been remarkably exempt
from fires is no excuse for neglect
There is no guarantee that they will
not come at the most inopportune
moment, and should our boasted fac
ilities then be found useless it will
be miserable consolation to know
that gross neglect has entailed great
loss. This matter should not be al
lowed to rest with but a passing
comment, or an effort to shift the
responsibility on the firemen. They
deserve the thanks of the commun-
ity for their willingness to aid, with
out compensation, in a difficult and
dangerous work, and the citizens
whose persons and. property they
organize to protect should insist
that they be furnished with their
needs. Money spent for this pur-
pose would be well invested and
such recognition would greatly en-.
courage them to become better
GRAINED and more efficient in their
work when the necessity for il
arises. Let us have a new hose
house and that very soon.

for decencies sake or, that a state
