The Tribune F. M. & E. M. KIMMELL , Editors and. Publishers. SUBSCRIPTION : Sa'PER YEAR INVARIABLY IN ADVANCE. Sterling ( Colo. ) News "thinks that the loss will be largo on the range on account of the great destruction of winter feed by fire. THE turn things have taken , among prominent Republicans , since the elec tion , is to be most sincerely regretted and deprecated. Suffice it to say that we have been defeated. Let the dead bury the dead. EARTHQUAKES are getting shock ingly common down in New England this fall , and the people are waxing very tired. They talk about circulat ing a monster petition inviting the mugwumps to go west. They do no exactly say that the mugwumps cause the earthquakes , but they yearn to try the experiment of doing withou them for a few weeks to see whether the earth will settle down while they are absent. IT is a melancholy reflection that Dakota gave sixty thousand republi can majority at the recent election of a territorial delegate. It shows how we were beaten in New York and Indiana , and how we lost strength in other eastern states. The youngmen > ry who have the nerve and enterprise in the ,01(1 states go west. The lame and the lazy stay at home and they are all democrats. If it had not been for Dakota the republicans would have swept every northern state. There is where our "losses" were lost. IN the heat and hurrah of their first flush of triumph the democratic and mugwump free trade journals hasten ed to extol the value and importance of the grand free trade victory they had won , and also spoke despitefully of Mr. Randall and his wing of the party. But just suppose for a moment that they undertake to put some anti- tariff legislation through congress. Randall and his crowd will vote with the republicans as they did before. Then of coarse they will read the Randallites out of the party , and deny them a share of the spoils of victory. Vere vos dot barty den ? Topics. ONE brave federal office-holder has bared his neck fcr the political gullo- tine. George A. Mott , postmaster of Pearsall's , L. I. , has written as fol lows to Governor Cleveland : "Dear Sir I desire to congratulate you. I voted against you. I hold the position of postmaster at Pearsall's , Queene county , L. I. My place is ready for a successor. 'To the victors belong the spoils. ' I hope you.will turn the rascals out , and if there have been any frauds committed go for them. Be president of the nation. God help you to do right. I am , sir , very re- spectfully yours. " THERE ought not to be a moment's delay in this city , and in the entire country , in making thorough prepar ation for a visitation of cholera. It may not reach our shores , but it is our duty to assume that it will. If past history and experience are worth any thing , the disease is sure to come. It is not probable , however , that it will reach us before next spring , and the intervening months should be devo ted to preparations to resist its ad vance. A number of eminent physi cians of this city in a message to the secretary of the treasury , in regard to the importation of rags , have sound ed the warning. The Mayor and Health authorities are apparently alive to the danger. This city should not repeat the mistake of Paris , in waiting until the scourge has begun its work before taking every sanitary measure possible to keep it out. The board estimate ought to make a special appropriation for that purpose. Already the disease is estimated to have cost Southern Europe not less than § 100,000,000. And yet Europe is only upon the threshold of this epi demic , if we may judge from the past. Now iswKe time for this city and country' 6 take measures to avoid the suifering and misery which such an epidemic always leaves in its track. New York Tribune. YORK has sent Boston two loads of beans , and-there is now a ir r bond of sympathy between the two cities. UNDER ordinary circumstances the Leman-Brand contest now in progress in Chicago over a seat in the state sen ate of Illinois would seem to be a matter of only ordinary local' interest , but ow ing to the fact that the Illinois legisla ture , which is to elect a United States senator is a tie , and one vote wjll turn it either way , the contest becomes an affair of national importance. The coun ty board of canvassers has decided that it cannot go behind the returns , and that the vote will have to stand as returned. This gives Brand , the democratic con testant , the certificate and aprhnafacie claim to his seat. The democrats thus decure a majority on joint ballot. It is charged that this is a job put up by the democrats to steal the legislature of Illinois , and elect a democrat for United States senator. It is claimed that the decision in favor of Brand is based on a forgery of a tally-sheet , giving to Brand 420 votes in one precinct where he only actually received 274. The attorney for Brand lias asserted that his client will not vote for United States senator pending the contest over his seat. This assurance amounts 'to nothing , because the legislature may compel Brand to vote. Whether the democrats will be able to carry out their plan of stealing the state of Illinois , and thus reducing the small republican majority in the United States senate remains to be seen It may be that the republican governor will refuse to give certificates to the man who is elected United States sena tor if his election depends upon a forg cry. This at least is the hope of the republicans , who cannot afford to lose a member of the United States senate at this juncture. The end is not yet , anc we may expect to see a very bitter fight in the Illinois legislature. The demo crats , among whom are numerous aspi rants for the senatorial succession , will not scruple at anything in order to se cure that state senator , for upon his vote the whole matter rests.

Where are the boys the long even ings ? "Will their fathers and mothers take the trouble to know ? Is there a man in Waukegan or Lake county mourning over the fact that his boys are on the down grade morally ! I : there is we ask what are you doing to put on the brakes ? What place have your boys in the home circle ? They sleep at home ? Yes , perhaps so. Are you sure about that always ? They board at home ? Yes. You furnish them good warm clothing ? Yes Well , that isn't all a boy needs. What do you make of home for them that they couldn't got at a boarding-house ? You may command a boy to stay al home evenings , but if you have noth ing for him to do there ; nothing to take his time , or nothing buC burdens and tasks , you make him hate home. Give him books and papers , and pict ures , and games , and intelligent nelp in his tasks and occasional company at his home. Let nuts and pop corn and molasses candy have their share of attention. If home is a better and pleasanter and more enjoyable plice than the street the boys will find it out , and if it's a place to be shunned they will find that out too. Oh , but it takes money to buy books and pa pers and nuts and fruit. Well , it takes money to buy beer and whisky and cigars , and to pay fines a little farther on , and furnish bail-bonds perhaps , and pay attorneys. It isn't a question of whether you will invest your money in your boy's education and development , but how you will invest it. In this day of much reform ing , it will pay fathers and mothers to see whether they don't need to re form. Let us have proper restraints and a prompt and generous treatment of the boys.'The investment will pay more than ten per cent. Waukegan Gazette. R. S. Cooley's Bulletin Board.
