The trouble with the colonel is that he

haps the success OF THE HERALD has had
something to do with this, but morbi dness
is not compatible with health, and il he
continues on the same drearv strain which
he assumed last week, we fear that the
mental cords will snap. The Colonel,
however, is the only one who takes him
sell seriously and it has even been as
serted that his writings are on the line OF
those OF the late lamented Josh Billings
and Bill Nye, in fact he is what Artemus
Ward would call an "amusin' cuss."
Be that as it may, the Colonel should
watch his mental conditions closely for
his loss, or even retirement to a padded
cell, would be greatly regretted and es-
pecially by THE HERALD, for there is a
demand for republican paper here and
we would prefer that he occupy the field
to the exclusion OF some one more able.
OF course this may seem a tritle selfish
and to carry out the point made by him
that the business and editorial heads OF

Third we recommend the state COM

serve their organization and take such
steps as in their opinion may best sub
serve the principles of our party, espe-
cially in the maintenance of sound cur
