No. 1, Saturday, Mr. Cramer was elected temporary chairman and Mrs. Filield temporary Secretary. It was resolved to organize a society to be known as "The Platte County Teachers Association." and a com mittee aypointed to report at the next meeting. The teachers of the Co. arc eirncstly requested to at tend the next meeting, which will be held iu the School-house iu Dist. No. 13, Saturday Sept. 27 at 10 o'clock a. in. The Era has finally got down to work in its contest with the local editor of the Democrat, Mr. Crites. and the public may expect some de velopments, if they be neither rich, rare nor rucy. Hensley closes a rather personal at tide on Mr.Crites's non-election to the legislature, with these words : "But when, through his inherent stupidity and want of foresight as a political' leader, he was sucked under the waves of defeat, a voice cried out from that overwhelming strangula tion, yonr Mcft-handed compliments and faint praise' has helped to damn me.' The boasts of the Democracy in this county two years ago were so loud that many Republicans who voted for some of the ticket then at their very earnest and oft-repeated solicitation have concluded to vote straight hereafter. This reminds us : A Democratic candidate stepped up to a thorough-paced Republican and solicited his vote, plying him with arguments of various kinds. Finally, after listening very patiently to what he had to say, the Republican sov ereign inquired whether his friend would vote for a Republican, if he would give him his vote. "Oh, no," said the Democratic candidate, "that would be against my principles." Just remember this when a man solicits your vote against your prin ciples. The Democrats of Platte county cannot afford to allow convicted thieves and pimps to sit in their conventions as delegates. Any such, even if regularly appointed, should be promptly expelled for the good name of the party. The Columbus Democrat, one of the party organs recognized by the Co. Convention, had the above to say last Friday of some of its mem bers. If any Republican paper had even intimated that there were "convicted thieves and pimps" iu that convention there would have been a hue aud cry raised whose echo would not die for many a day. TVe suppose, now that the nomina tions are made, " the convicted thieves and pimps" will not only be "allowed" to vote, but their support will be most anxiously solicited. Hare "convicted thieves and pimps" no rights that a Democratic news paper is bound to respect? Is the Democratic party also to be a party of Puritanic principles? Court Proceeding Brash v Bernhart.

Godfrey, after the death of her little child ron : I'e five little angels waiting for me On the beautiful banks of the crystal sea; Forever free from sorrow audp.iin, Spotlesx, and pure from all earthly stain, Never in erring path to rove, Safe in the bosom of Intinite Love, Evermore, evermore, walkingin light, My little angels, robed in white. I've live little angels to welcome nie When I, too, shall stand by the crystal sea; When the great Refiner hath fitted me, In me his own image can clearly sec.
