OUR POLITICS.

We read the papers and sec the record in Secretary of States office tempered with. The figures were erased and others placed in their stead. Next, we hear that
 mistakes were made to defeat Hon. Eugene Parrish for Con- gross. Instead of Hon. Bruce Macon carrying Woodruff county, it now turns out that Parrish car. ried our county by 17S majority. It is absolutely uncertain who is elected and who is defeated. One thing we know and that is a man who is dishonest in politics is a dishonest man, and dishonest man should not be trusted any where. Democracy and dishon- esty are as different as the song of an African crocodile compared to the sweet symphonies of Bee thoven. A dishonest man can t be a democrat. We are astound- ed at the status of affairs in our county; it is alarming. Yet, we are told that the politics are as clean as the driven snow. God pity the narrow minded or those that have no constance.
 The News man wishes 10 say right here that we are DemOcra S to the core and denounce such work as undemocratic; that an chonest>democrat would not have had anything to do with such a thing; that no such animals as dishonest democrats ever exist ed. Some may call themselves such, but the cloak of democracy will never shield their rotten hearts. Now is the time for every loyal democrat to start a crusade that will have for it's end legaliz- ed primaries: the selection of judges and clerks who are known as democrats and not as dishon- est, unscrupulous, consumptive hypocrits.
 At the same time, we desire to notify the good people of Wood

 ing. For they sing the song of
 Bull frogs with success. Beware, they call themselves independent
 candidates, but they are utterly
 dependent upon your votes.
 Democrats, stand by your colors and your party. If you remem-
 Der Appomattox, stand up for the legacies you inherited; if you are tired of some peoples actions,
 work for the elimination of the wrong at the next primary, but stand by your nominees. If we do our duty as we should, we will have a legalized primary next time. We will have judges that
 will not allow anything and every thing to vote. But in the mean time, bemen! Be democratsI Our nominees are all capable men;
 men that will be a credit to our county. They should not be made to suffer because some squint- eyed dwarfs of .perdition have done things they should not have done. We, that are democrats, must labor for our country. The poet has said-"I1e who loves his country, loves all things; Anl all things loving, bless him. He who lets his country die, lets all things die; And all things dying, curse him." Stand by democracy and her principles. The state-craft of democracy is sub lime and beautiful. Study it, live it. There is health and wisdom in it's enchanted halls. Stand by your nominees. >rf ...,

The IndiansDuclx Trick.

s a little, tin or Searthen pan or some
times half a cocoanut she'll supported
on three stones is filled with water on
which is sprinkled a red powder, rem
derinng it practically opaque. a little
duck Of wood or porcelain is placed
upon the surface, where it at first
floats, but at the command Of the per-
former suddenly dives, remaining sub
merged until again ordered to rise. 5@
This very ingenious trick depends
upon the fact that in the bottom Of the
vessel there is a minute hole through
which passes. q hair. One end Of this
1s attached to the duck; the other re-
mains at the disposal of the performer
and is attached, by means of a pellet
Of wax, to his tomtom or to one Of the
hands with which he beats it. When
he wishes the duck to dive, he pulls
the hair. When he desires it to rise,
he relaxes the pull. %. s3 81 d:
There. is naturally some amount Of
leakage through the pinhole, and to
cover this the performer takes care,
when filling the pan, to accidentally (?l
spill little water. The ground being
thus already wetted, the fact that it
gets little more is not noticed
