The election passed of in the most ftiet and orderly manner, although a good deal of earnest work was done on both sides. Four hundred and twenty* seven votes were polled In the second preetnct, which includes this village of McHenry and Johnsburgh, and in the •m precint, at Bingwood. eighty, and tesolted In a majority of thirty-eight for the Democrats, a small Republican (•la over four years ago.

Y HOW WE QBOW, Under the above bead . tbs Inter Ocean says: In 1834 the total vote oast In this United States wag 353,063; several of ttoe smaller States cast a larger number Of ballots yesterday. Ten years hence the city of Chicago will cast nearly as many, or perhaps more than as many, U popalation increase in the future as In the past. The total vote cast for Mayer of Chicago In 1873 was 47,434; In 1874 it was 40.216; in 1875 it was #4,783: in 1880 the Presidential vote of the city was 81.383. in 1884 it was Their Like Comes no Store. Offioer Mahoney on Monday dlsoov- iired another of the "hospitals," with which Chinatown abounds.

GROVlER'S VETO WON'T WORK HERE. Say, Boy's. Let's Gut a Wator- Melon. The Rattle harden fought and the yictory won, and Gen. Benjamin Harrison has been elected President of the United^States for four years from March 4th. 1889. At the timO of writing the indications are that the Bepublicaas have carried every Northern State except New Jersey and Connecticut. This is glory enough for one day. New Tork swings Into line with a majority of about 15,000, Indiana 10,000JIllInois220,000, Connecticut by a small majority and all the other Northern States exeept New Jersey and Connecticut by majorities as large as those received by Blaine four years ago. Bepublican gains In Congressmen are reported in Indiana. Connecticut, and other States, and it is believed the Republicans will have a majority in the^next House. Notceunting Connecti­ cut in the Bepublican column, Harrison and ;Morton will baye 333 electoral votes. In New York Hill, Democrat, is probably elected Governor over Warner Miller, Bepublican, by a small majority. Private Joe Fifer is elected Governor qf Illinois, by a handsome majority, although be ran behind his ticket In Chicago and Cook County. His net plurality will be from 8,000 to 13,000. Before eur nextJUiue the majorities wlJl all be figured out and more per­ fect returns received, but suffice to know that HAllBISON AND M0B- TON are elected President and Vice- President of these United States, and that after Mareh 4th, next, the reins of gevrnment will be in the hands of men who will administer the laws In a manner that will be for "the greatest good to the greatest number." For this glorious victory we are to a great exteut indebted to the veteran soldier, who stood solidly by the right, as he did in the dark days of '61 to '65. All honor to the brave beys who wore the blue, they are always right. Battio of Gettysburg. When In Chicago during the Fat Stock Show, we would advise our read­ ers not to fail to see the grandest sight in the city, the vast and realis­ tic panorama of the Battle of Gettys­ burg, which is exhibited at the corner of Wabash Avenue and Panorama Place. Those who have never wit nessed a work of the kind can form no conception of the startling effects that are obtained. The panorama is the work of Paul Phillpoteux, a French artist of great ability and established reputation as a military painter, whose wonderful "Defense of Paris" has been seen by most Americans who have vis­ ited the French Capital. Mr, Phlll poteux has made a striking success where most scenic painters have iailed. It is his idea to complete the pictorial illusion by placing the spec tator in the middle of the scene, and completley surrounding him with broad circumference of earth and sky The whole battlefield of Gettysburg reproduced with the strictest top© graphical accuracy, and the details the great flght are represented with realism that seems marvelous. The foreground is actually built out with real fences, earth, trees, guns, etc which are &o skilfully led up to and joined to the painted canvass that it is almost impossible to discover where reality ends and illusion begins. / descriptive lecture is given by a vet eranoftbe war. The enthusiasm the old soldier and there are thousands of them, who gaze upon this pano­ rama. is unbounded. A band of F kota Indians, who were taken to see paid altogether too sincere tribute the potency of the illusion. Fully ooavinced that the scene was real, they became wildly excited and wanted rush down into the btfoad field a take a hand in the fight. The ampi- tbeatre rang with their war-whoops, a panic ensued, and it was only getting the dusky warriors out of building that calm was restored. PBOPBB BIBLB WINE. Alfred Speer, who has large vine­ yards near Pasaalc, New Jersey, Is ex­ tensively eugaged in preserving un- fermented grape juice from the Oporto grapes and supples It to many religious societies for communion purposes. The following is from Dr. John Ellis, who has written several works on Bible wines: 4,Tbe writer obtained from Mr. Speer a bottle of his unfermented wine and found It a very pleasant and nutritious wine. A chemist put a portion of this wine into retort and distilled and condensed about one-third of the contents of the retort; the distilled had neither the smell or taste of alco­ hol, nor did chemical tests indicate any trace of aloobol. bat a careful examination of oar prices and quality of goods throughout our entire stock will bear us out in all the assertions we make, and will convince all who will take the pains to compare that is of of Da- it. to by the Best unbleached Hall'o Nupda^ Sheeting, 7 eente, >n tftoe undersigned, haviug rented his farm forOaeh Sent, will sell at Public Auction, on the premtaes, two miles north of Crystal L*ke Station, and four miles south ot MoHenry, on SATUaDAT, HOVSX8BR 10th, 1888, Commencing at 10 o'clock A. m., the following property: 10 head of horses consisting of 1 mare 7 years ol<l, 2 geldings 8 years oil, 1, 2 jear-old-gold- Ing, 2 yearling colts, 2 sucking colts, 2 brood mares, 12 choice young cows, milkers and springere, 1 yearling bull, 1600 bushels ear corn, 1 stack ryo straw, 75 bushels winter pples, SO bushels potatoes, 1 caldron kettle.

So 6ay all manufacturers of genuine arti­ cles to that horde of imitators which thrives upon the reputation of others, l he good name of Allcock*s Porous Plasters has induced many adventurers to put in the markets Imitations that are not only lacking in the best elements of the genuine article, but are often harmful in their eflects. The public should be on their guaid against these frauds, and, when an ex­ ternal remedy is needed, be sure to insist upon having Allcock's Porous Piaster. psgpg •>•%*» • - ' A Gaods House OF M'HENRY COUNTY.
