W believe Mr. Hockncll will ably repre sent the interests of this" constituent in the halls of our state legislature. GROVER CLEVELAND'S friends have worked up a case of seduction agains Elaine down in old Kentucky. We thought it would come to this. There was no trouble in getting affidavits against Elaine at the Confcdrit X Roads but it will be hard to make anybody be lieve them. Bee. ANOTHER young man ambitious ibi glory has arisen in the Third Congres sional District , in the person of J. M Macfarland , Mayor of the city of Co lumbus. Mac's friends say he wil make the most active canvass on rec ord if nominated. We know Mac is a rustling canvasser in a direction or two. THE Hastings Gazette-Journal sug gests that the interests of the candidate are not paramount to the party , and that candidates should not claim any propri etary right to the party. How about the interests of the "dear people ? Firstly , Party. Secondly , Candidate. Thirdly , "The dear people. " Is that the Journal's position ? WE have received , in common , we presume , with thousands of other jour nals , a copy of the Evening Telegraph , published at Buffalo , the home of the Democratic candidate for President , Grrovcr Cleveland , which contains all the charges made against the moral character of the bourbon candidate , with editorial comment. Cleveland says he assumed the responsibility and odium to shield two married individuals his friends , who arc the parties in fact. We hope the Democracy will be able to explain this nasty affair to the entire satisfaction of everybody. It is a most disgusting element to draw into nation al politics. IT has been asserted that as soon as Lieutenant Orecly recovers from his present indisposition he will deliver a series of lectures on Arctic discoveries. It will be conceded that the aspirants for fame on the lecture platform have been more numerous in past years than the patience or pockets pf our people have been willing to tolerate , but we believe the lectures of Greely will be well attended , and if so , they may be productive of much good. It is possi ble that with a recital of all the horrors attendant upon a cruise in the direction of the North Pole a sentiment may be aroused in opposition to further expe ditions , and thereby many valuable lives be saved together with much money. Lieutenant Grcely's experience itself if related would contain argument enough to shut off further enterprise. By all means let us have his lectures. IN Connecticut , where , it appears , the sale of liquors is not always con ducted according to the laws of man , the arrest of a party for selling without license produced a novel defense. The party charged was the keeper of a board ing house. He supplied beer and whis ky to his regular boarders without in dulging in the expensive luxury of a li cense , which costs in the Nutmeg state anywhere from $50 to § 500 per year. His defense was that beer and whisky were a part of the "regular fare , " and for that reason 'he believed himself not amendable to the law governing the sale of liquor. This defense astonished the judge for a time , and he reserved his de cision until the next day , when he im posed a fine of $30 and costs. The boarders in that hotel will hereafter find that "regular fare" does not include liquid stimulants. Republican. COL. E. P. SAVAGE , superintendent of the agricultural college farm at Lin coln , has agreed , with the assistance of the stockmen throughout the state , to gather and compile the stock statistics of the state for publication in the cata logue to be issued by this state at the World's Industrial and Cotton Centen nial. This being a matter of interest to the whole country it is earnestly re quested that every ranchman or stock breeder residing in the state , owning stock within or without this state , send to him his postoffice" address , number Mid kind of stock particularly all thor oughbred or registered , number of fat stock for sale this year , number of acres used for range , where located , what iind of grass. Also any other item that tvill tend to give our stock' interest a rgood send off. " These are statistics ihat can be had only thus personally , ind it is really hoped the above assist- uice will be rendered him , and if it is , ic agrees to place our stock interest vhere it belongs , to the front. THE following article from the facile pen of Topics Calhoun of the State Journal , devoid of the1 Vein of 'egotism which permeates that excellent writers articles , is pregnant with sound sense : 1 'A gentleman remarked a day or two ago that the Journal did not hurrah for Blaine enough to suit his enthusiastic taste. Let us remind that gentleman and others like him that political battles are not won by hurrahing and noise. Every democrat agrees with him that we don't hurrah enough for Blaine , but employ entifely too much of our time whooping it up to them with that steady attention to the business in hand which is the pride of the Journal as its chief characteristic. When we think there is more need of hurrahing for our captain than for firing at the enemy we'll make the welkin ring till it cracks. In the meantime the welkin is getting on pret ty well , and so is the cause. When Henry II wanted to rid his country of the tyranny of the Romish church as personated by Thomas a Becket , he did'nt inquire if he had a friend who would go out on the streets and get up a torchlight procession and shout hur rahs for Henry. He intimated that he was uncertain whether he had a friend who would enjoy the patriotic duty of polishing off his chief enemy. That is the kind of a friend to Blaine the Jour nal is. It will occupy itself with pol ishing off his political , enemies and leave the hurrahing to those papers which desire rather to attract attention than to do solid and inconspicuous work. " THE delegates that are elected to the various republican conventions that are to be held this month have import ant work before them. The party will very properly hold them responsible for the kind of a ticket they put in the field. The size of republican majorities will depend largely upon the sort of men nominated. If men who have the con fidence of the public are chosen , espe- cialy upon the legislative ticket , the majority will be large. But if the con trary be true , a light majority will be polled for the whole ticket. It is t the interest of every candidate nomina ted to see that he has a strong support. Many a good man has been defeated be cause of the unpopularity of others on the ticket. The delegates chosen have this matter in their hands and hence what they do of the utmost importance. They should be independent to choose and vote according to their best judg ment , and should not be improperly in fluenced by the importunity of candi dates. The interests of the party far exceed those of the candidate , and the candidate should not claim to own the party. Delegates in convention should bear in mind that their obligation to their constituents is first to be considered - 4 ered , and that they will be held respon sible for the kind of a ticket selected for republicans to endorse at the polls. Gazette-Journal , A NOTICEABLE feature of the cam paign within the last ten days has been its entire relief from the democratic charge that the Germans as a body arc leaving the republican ranks. This charge has been proved a fictitious one early in the fight. It has run its course , and a view of the entire field will show that the German element is just about where it always has been politically. There may have been a few who have jeen lured away by a foolish cry , but the great mass of German voters are too intelligent to be drawn away from their ? ormer political affiliations without suffi cient reason. The same sentiments which lave induced so many of our Irish citi zens to look to the republican party for ) rotcction have helped to retain the Ger mans in the rank. They believe in the ibility of the republican party to pro tect American citizens abroad , they bc- ieve in the republican theory of protec- ion to home industries as against the the ruinous democratic free-trade theory , and more than all they believe that the ) rosperity and enormous growth of all ndustries for the past twenty-five years' are good enough reasons why the rcpub- ican party should be retained in power. Republican. THE railroad system of this country s not alone in finding the past year one of diminishing traffic and profits. Eng- ish , French , ana German railroads how for the opening months of 138-i de- rasing traffic on enlarged mileage , and n the case of Australia this amounts to nearly 4 per cent. The only railroads naking more money this year than last ire in South America , and even there igns appear that the period of cxpan- ion is about over. Bee. THE north Atlantic coast was shak en up a few minutes after two o'clock on Sunday by an earthquake. The shake extended from Baltimore to Port land , Maine. The center of the distur bance seems to have been in the vicinit of Coney Island. The shocks lasted f o about a minute , the most severe pertur bations occurring during the first fiv seconds. Old chimneys fell , window rattled , bells rang , chandeliers tinkled and the earth rumbled , but no damag ( of any material sort appears to havi been wrought. But it was a great scan and the streets of the cities of the sea board were soon filled with a panic-strck en multitude that breathlessly awaited calamity. Ships in the harbors were shaken as by the discharge of a broad side , and the sensations on land withir buildings were decidedly uncomfortable , as every house appeared to be tottering on its foundation. A second shock was perceptible about ten in the evening and another the next morning in some places in New England. But they were very slight. We may now expect shocks a other points , perhaps on the Pacifii coast. Earthquakes usually come ii : groups , with short intervals of time and long intervals in distance. Journal. IT .is hoped that the arrest of Oklaho ma Payne and his band of boomers wil end a scheme which in its inception was visionary and in its conduct almost a mi tional nuisance. Thus far Payne has accomplished nothing beneficial to any one save himself and a few of his righ hand men , while he has inflicted loss of money and considerable sufferingon the many who were deluded into following him. A more intimate knowledge o Payne's character has revealed the fao that he is far from being what has generally orally been supposed. For a week prev ious to his arrest he was in a state of debauch , unable to take 'care of himseli or guide his followers. Any further at tempt on the part of the boomers to in vade the Indian lands should be per emptorily dealt with. If they are dc sirous of forming a colony there is room enough upon which they will be per mittcd to settle without official or any other kind of obstruction. ACCORDING to the latest advices that have reached the national republican committee from all parts of the state the outlook in New York is decidedly en couraging. In the rural districts the re publicans arc enthusiastic for Blaine , and are receiving large reinforcement ! from the intelligent Democrats. In the cities Blaine is the favorite candidate of the democratic workingmen and anti- monopQlists. and several hundred Blaine and Logan clubs , whose membership consists of men who have hitherto voted the democratic ticket , have been voted throughout the state. In Utica , Buffalo , Troy , Syracuse , Albany , Ogdensburg and Rochester , Blaine will receive several thousand democratic votes. THE New York Tribune is reproduc ing some of the Harper's Weekly pic tures , cartooning Mr. Lincoln about the time he went on to Washington to take his office , and in the early cLiys of the rebellion. The pictures lack the artis tic finish of Nast , but the cusscdness of them has never been excelled in the his tory of the paper. They present the quintessence of the copperhead hate that welled up against honest old Abe from the time that his election was an nounced to the close of his career by the bullet of Booth. Since then , however , pictures of this kind would not help sell Harper's much. Journal. UNSURPASSED. A Pleasant , Safe and Relia ble Remedy for Bowel Complaints.
