OUPLOCAL TICKET.

The Democratic Executive Commit
tee has now finally passed upon the
ticket and the same is placed at the
head of our editorial columns, which
indicates the cordial support of this
journal. The two changes which
were made, one by recount and the
other by resignation, will of course,
meet with the approval of many and
cause a great number some possible
regret. 1t is now time, however, to
let bygones be bygones as the recent
primary is matter of history. We
should stop all discussions of the
many little unpleasant incidents
which seem to be necessary attend
ant evil to all campaigns conducted
under the Crawford County System.
Every man, however, has had a
chance to have his say and it is pre-
sumed he did so. 1t now becomes
the common duty of all to get to-
gether and help elect the ticket.
1t is natural that the recent results
cause some disappointments but it
was a we'll recognized fact from the
beginning that every one could not
win; consequently the individual
Democrats, who were unsuccessful in
getting exactly the man that they
wanted, should fall in line the same
as they would have expected their
more fortunate brothers to have done
if the outcome had been of different
nature. If individuals prefer to set
up their Judgment against the will of
the majority it is time that they were
studying some of the fundamental
principles Of the party to which they
profess allegiance. The maxim "the
majority shall rule" is as old as the
founder, Thomas Jefferson, and if
they wish to be in a party Of classes
and not masses then they should not
have taken part in the makeup ofthe
ticket.
The personnel does not represent
the choice of any one individual and
this could hardly be expected where
there was such a large vote polled
and such decided interest manifested.
Many no doubt, are inclined to
grumble, but that time has now
passed. 1t will require the united
efforts of everyone to hold the party
together in this county and those who
blot any portion of the ticket should
remember that they are establishing
a dangerous precedent which may
hereafter serve as a boomerang in
their own individual cases. The peo-
pie of this county exact party fealty
as a sine qua non to every require
ment for office. This has been DEM
onstrated again and again, as those
who have seen fit oleave their party
and afterwards return have discover
ed to their sorrow.
1t is understood that the Republic

TAXATION OF BACHELORS.

There are European writers of eco
Monies who seriously advocate the
taxation of bachelors. Recently in
Vienna municipal tax has been laid
on cats, partly because the city needs
the money and partly because cats
have ceased to be Of any use. Time
was when rats and mice were num-
erous and ravenous in the ancient
towns and cats were held sacred be-
cause they were supposed to be at
war with the vermin. Observation
has disproved this and the invention
of traps and the employment Of
poisons and ferrets have provided a
more effective means of protection.
Hence the cats have become the
luxury of those who keep them and
the taxation of the luxuries
is an ancient principle. Per-
haps it is because the bachelor is use
less and his selfish ways apparently
JOYOUS and free that he is to be rated
with cats, jewels, tobacco, spirits
and other luxuries. Doubtless an
occasional married man who finds it
hard to meet the reasonable de-
mands of a large family is disposed
to look on the career of the bachelor
with envy. That the bachelor may
stay out nights without having to
construct a plausible excuse; that he
may spend all his earnings to crafty
his selfish tastes etc, may make him
seem to the fretted father. of a family
as a person too highly favored and
therefore a legitimate subject of
special taxation. In his hours of
frankness, however, the bachelor
himself confesses that his lot is far
from enviable. He deplores the fact
that nobody cares whether he stays
out nights, whether he puts on his
hannels at the proper season, whether
he is we'll feed or starved. In short,
he considers himself, with Justice, a
lonely, stranded wreck of man who
would gladly give all his liberty i'll
exchange for the back-breaking cares
of a husband and father. He does
not marry because he dare not-be-
cause he knows he is too defective to
be a successful head of a family.
Ostensibly the bachelor is to be
taxed because he is of so little value
to society, contributing but an in
significant tritle for his hall bedroom.
ole is" says one writer, "a shirker
of responsibilities, dodger of his
duty, a laggard in the procession of
progress, and it is assumed that to tax
him may be to spur him up to
marriage. Such an effect would be
unfortunate. The bachelor himself
knows whether he should marry
admits by his course that he should
not. Since he is clearly without that
supreme quality which makes of the
majority of men devoted husbands
and fathers, it would be mischievous
to drive him to a change of mind and
ofcondition. Aperson who voluntar-
lily foregoes the Incompatible joys
of marriage is distinctly defective and
should never be allowed to think that
a payment of tax money will place
him in the same rank with the ma
jority ofmen. Especially so wretched
a creature with so poor an existence
should not be flattered with the idea
that he is taxed because his life is
enviable. As no tax is laid on other
unfortunates in consideration of
their hapless lot, it would be unfair
to tax the unfortunate bachelor

THE EARLY AUTUMN FASHIONS.
Perhaps the most important item in
the early Autumn wardrobe is the top
garment, the coat or jacket. No one
type of coat is especially favored. Long
and short coats, loose and tight coats
are equally popular. There has never
been such variety of materials that can
be combined in the same costumes as is
offered this season. Silk, velvet, cloth
and chiffon are associated in nearly every
toilette that is intended for dressy wear
while even the gown that is to do duty
for walking and ordinary occasions will
be distinguished by at least two con-
trasting materials. There is nothing
quite so charming as the gown fashioned
from one of the new panne velvets in
gun metal effect. This rich, shimmering
gray velvet with tiny flecks of white
over it affords a rich background for
exquisite embroidered and lace TRIM
mings The shirtwaist costume that has
been so popular during the summer will
come forth with renewed attractiveness
in the Autumn, and the wardrobe that
does not include at least one velvet or
vclveteen suit, made in this popular style,
will be incomplete. There are innumer-
able pretty materials that will delight
the heart of the woman who persistently
clings to shirt-waists. The new fannels
are wonderfully soft and fine, and come
i'll very pretty colors. The heavy cotton
fabrics-madras, cotton cheviot, fleece
backed pique and canvas-will all be
worn even during the winter, and they
have much to recommend them. Hand.
work is more in evidence than ever in the
fashionable wardrobe. Every season
seems to bring forth some new sugges-
tions for the use of black velvet ribbon,
and now we have wonderfully pretty
block or strapped work of the ribbon
velvet over lace collars and also on skirts
and sleeves. Shirring in all forms is re-
markedly popular this season, and
accordion-plating continues in favor not
only for skirts but for jackets. waists
and accessories. High in favor are linen
passementeries, pendants and embroid-
cries, and they are used to trim gowns
of almost every material, and buttons
play a conspicuous part in the trimmings
of street dresses.-From The Delineator
