Troth, Committeeman for Willow Grove Precinct. After perusing the bloviating hyphen of the past few weeks, the average Republican must realize his simple duty of standing by and seeing the deliverance of the Lord—the hyphen in the leading role. Or is the Times-Democrat only suffering from a temporary case of political jimjams? In either event the assurance exhibit ed is nauseating in the extreme. The democratic brethren of the house should not allow their angry passions to rise because the repub licans occasionally burst the quorum when the roll is called on a partisan measure. Tcm Reed told ’em how it would be if they neglected to pass his justly celeb rated rule that declares a member present so long as the speaker can see him in his seat. But they heeded him not. This is a year for record breaking and the extraordinary has become common place: The 120 mile race between the Prince of Wales’yacht “Brittannia” and the American yacht, “Navalioe,” was one of the most extraordinary ou record. At tho finish it was decided by the judges that the Brittannia had won by two seconds, but upon a review of the facts the umpires reversed the decisiou and gave the race to Navalioe. But a difference of a second or two iu a race of 120 miles is certainly an amazing incident. An example should be made of the small stock of train robbers now on hand. Missouri has the Mound Valley robbers and the Hedgpeth gang, and Michigan has the “drop” on the perpetrators of the Mineral Ridge robbery. There are laws enough on the statute books to make the fate of these outlaws so terrible that others will not try their hands at high way robbery again for many a day. Senator Peffer introduced a resolu tion in the United States senate the other day looking towards farther legislation on the matter. Further legislation is not so much needed as a salutary inforcement of the laws that already exist. The clamps should be put on train robbing, and they must not be padded either. Now is a good time to begin. TILAE TABLE. GOING EAST—CENTRAL TIME—LEAVES. No, 2, through passenger. 6:40 A. M. No. 4. local passenger.II :40 P. M. No. 6, through passenger.4:10 P. M.

Agent Davis, of Cedar Bluffs, took his little girl to Iowa for treatment, on Friady last, at Oronoque. It looks as though the fates had a grudge against Mr. Davis.
