From now on to November the Repub­ licans should put> forth their utmost en­ deavors to win victory at the elections. They should leave no stone unturned to show how the Democratic party has vio­ lated its pledges and its supposed prin­ ciples. , Its shameless profligacy; the un-Amer­ ican course which characterized the ad­ ministration's foreign policy; its nig­ gardly and insulting course toward its pensioners; its disregard of party pledges and its incapacity and imbecelity as a governing party should be pressed home to the American people and kept in their minds until election. At no time sinco its existence has the future looked brighter for the Republican party. Let it follow up the advantage it has gained and by earnest and aggres­ sive work prevent the Democratic party from doing further evil by electing ft Re­ publican congress.

Lawler, of Rock ford was elect­ ed Coxuinauuer-in-chief of the G. A. R., al Pittsburg, last week, and the entire state of Illinois rejoices thereat. No better selection could have been made. I®" The Boone County Republican makes the following pertinent remarks: "The Republicans of this senatorial dis­ trict bit off a pretty big chew when they nominated three candidates for represen­ tees, and it will require herculean efforts to elect them, tiet every Republican of spirit throughout the county constitute himself into a committee of one to see that as many votes as possible are se­ cured for the entire Republican ticket in­ cluding one each for the three represen­ tatives. The detestable practice of Dlumping for any one man should not be tolerated but if possible elect all three candidates for representatives. It can possibly be done by fair means, but cer­ tainly not by plumping. Let the party get down to work, hump itself and re­ deem our noble state from the disgrace of Altgeldism and Democratic rule gen­ erally. IW Butter on the Elgin Board of Trade M Monday remained at last week's prices; market steady. Sales were 8,900 poqnds at 24 cents, 10,620pounds at 24% cents. Last year's price 27 cents. Offerings small to-day. The time when single individuals could make or unmake the Republican party has long since passed away never to return. The backbone of the party is its great principles, which will live and flourish long after all of us are dead. AT a meeting of the Republican Cen­ tral Committee, of McHenry County, the following preamble and resolution was offered by R. M. Curtis, of Coral, which was unanimously adopted: WHEREAS There exists in the Republi- lican party of McHenry county, a strong sentiment favoring the holding of county conventions under tht provisions of the Crawford Primary Election Law, and whereas the members of the County Com­ mittee believe it would be for the best interests of the party and that greater harmony could be secured in the party if County Conventions and Caucuses were held under such law. Therefore Resolved by Ihe McHenry County Re­ publican Central Committee that in the future all county Republican Conventions and Caucuses in conjunction therewith, be held under and in accordance with the provisions of the Crawford Primary Election Law of this State. The following executive committee were appointed: R. M. Curtis, H. D. Crumb, W. E. Wire, W. P. St. Clair and Samuel Clark. H. C. MEAD, Secretary. Ifir'A Democratic farmer, who lately •old his wool for ten cents a pound, re­ counting the operation to a farmer friend, said: "I voted for free trade and I've come within ten cents of free wool, tgr Gosh!" iSPThe window glass workers of the eastern districts have accepted a cut of 22% per cent in their wages. It was that or no work. Now let some Democrat go among these tnen and tell them that the new tariff is bettering the condition of ^American workmen. HF*Cleveland's scarlet tariff letter np- Democratic perfidy and dishonor and ' Wilson's speech of defense of the House caucus action are in themselves maga- rines of campaign ammunition sufficient tor many successful Republican elections. 0ut of the mouth of Democratic leaders fcas issued stronger condemnation of ^Democracy than Republican spell binders 6r editors can utter. " Bad as it may be the tariff bill just •Dae ted muBt remain operative two years yet or until the close of Cleveland's unfor­ tunate term. Should the Republicans re- , cover a majority in the House this fall ifce Senate will remain Democratic and the executive will also remain a bar to tariff variation. If 1896 should restore Congress and the presidency to the party " Of protection, prosperity and progress there will doubtless ensue revision of the liar iff; but it will be treatment of a na- ire to stimulate industry instead ot rzing and destroying it. iST'When such inferior mortals as Grant, Garfield, Arthur or Harrison dar­ ed lift their weary eyes in longing to a government craft, and yearn for breezes, water ride and rest, the howls of denun ciation lifted by Democratic editors af­ frighted the people with dread that a dictator or wholesale appropriator was in the White House. With Cleveland it is different. He can grab a government ship of any sort wherever found, coal and victual her and go-a-fishing or a-sailing and the natural, proper thing is being done--or Cleveland would not do it. The increase in size of the navy may have mellowed Democratic protest; but it is more plausible that the great mental and moral superiority of Cleveland dis­ arms all rebuke. [Prom the Mmnxird Heratd.] Olark'a Candidacy tnanm. The candidacy of J. D. Clark, of this city, for county treasurer is as unneces­ sary as it is ludicrous. That the Republi­ cans of the county may know the facte as they exist in his case we deem it necess­ ary to briefly review his canvass (leaving his methods for a future issue) as a Re­ publican candidate for the office he is now an aspirant for on the democratic ticket. During the year or more of his canvass in Chemung township he always maintained that if he was defeated in the canvass he would loyally support his opponent, and when the Republican Co. Central Committee met at Woodstock last April he appeared before that body and made a speech that was a stunner, in the^ course of which he went on to tell that in the event of his defeat in the county convention no Republican would be found in the county who would give the successful ticket a more loyal sup­ port than himself, and no one would be more anxious for its success. Well, be carried Chemung township and he was then quite as emphatic in his expressions of loyalty for the successful ticket in the convention that followed on the 22d of last May. But in that convention he was not successful, being defeated just the same as other Republicans have in the past--the combination he figured in did not win. But after the convention heeaidto a number of Republicans in Woodstock, as well as to a number in this city, that he had no one to blame for his defeat but himself, and that he would support the ticket as nominated. These statements he made and several of his delegates--not. Messrs. Axtell, Crumb, Lake, Blanchard and Bentley--said the s^me thing, that his' defeat was due to himself and no one else. Now, then, does it not seem , fctrange for him to go back on what he said be­ fore and after the convention? Why i6 it that the Republican convention is now such a fraud and its results, he said after the convention, would in no sense pre­ vent bim from giving its nominees hie support? For him to accept a nomination from the democratic party places him squarely on that party's ticket, so that this talk of independents is all moonshine. He has accepted a nomination from a party of which he said, in speaking of Col. Avery's proposed independent candidacy before the Republican convention (for be it known Col. Avery would have been a candidate for country treasurer had hp not formed an alliance with Clark, Shel don and others) that he presumed he (Avery) was receiving his principal en­ couragement from democrats. " Let me say," said Mr. Clai$, "If all the demo­ crats in the state of Illinois could be moved into McHenry county and they, with what disgruntled Republicans there may be, would give me the nomination, thus insuring my election, I would not accept it." These were the sentiments of J. D. Clark as he expressed himself on the 15th of last May. Now he has accepted at the hands of the democrats a nomin ation for county treasurer. Why does not Mr. Clark, as the many other Republicans from jbhis township who have been defeated in the past have done, support the ticket and the meD that proved successful ? Said a Republi­ can the other day, "I have lived here and voted the Republican ticket for thirty-five years and it ie the first time in my life that a candidate from the town of Chemnng, and we have had lots of them, ever bolted a convention, and then to run on a democratic ticket eaps the climax. 1888, so that hns than 11 yean bate elapsed since Mr. Curtis conceived the idea which has developed into so vast an enterprise. In this short, time its merits and steady improvement in all depart­ ments have received such recognition that its circulation has reached the enor­ mous average of 700,000, the largest^, magazine output in the world. The bro­ chure alfo describes at some length the work of printing and binding the Journal which is carried on in a separate build­ ing.

Asl»~~ A Clarions Industry of Southern Log) Excellent for Coffins. One of the most curious industries ill the world is the business of mining for coffin planks which is carried on in Upper Tonquin, a portion of the French possessions in southeastern Asia. In a certain district in this province there exists a great underground deposit of logs, which were probably the trunks of trees engulfed by an earthquake or some other convulsion of nature at a comparatively recent period. The trees, says the Youth's Compan* ion, are a species of pine known to the natives, and also to some extent to Eu­ ropean commerce, as nam-hou. The wood is almost imperishable, and has the quality, either through its nature or as the result of its soujourn under* I jround, of resisting decay from damp. This quality makes it particularly val­ uable for the manufacture of coffins, and for this purpose It is largely ex­ ported to Europe. The trees are often a yard in diame­ ter. They are buried in sandy earth at a depth of from two to eight yards, and are dug up by native labor as de­ mand is made for them. In many other plaoes in the world trees are found underground in a very fair state of preservation. In Ver­ mont certain meadows, which now are cultivated every year, are known to be underlaid with great masses of logs which were brought down and deposited in great jams in floods within the rec­ ollection of living men, and left where they were. In the course of time the interstices between the logs filled up with earth and all were covered over evenly with more earth and vegetable growth. Whenever any of those burled logs are dug up they are found to be in a surprisingly good state of preservation; but the business of "mining" them has not yet become an industry. STORY OF THROCKMORTON. pc J * fej * A Bit of History. Capt. Chas. H. Donnelly secured the .domination for coanty judge against the (bmbined opposition of Ira R. Curtiss and Chas. P. Barnes, and the people of Woodstock, without regard to their po­ litical affiliations, feel complimented by the selection, for Mr. Donnelly is at all times a courteous gentleman, fair-mind­ ed and scrupulously honest, who is capa­ ble and always inclined to judge with Impartiality and equity toward all. Dorr's indorsement at the polls next November will ,be both hearty and spon­ taneous. The Democrat believes in non- partisanship in judicial matters, and wants to see the democratic convention indorse Mr. Donnelly's candidacy. Why ^ |iot make it unanimous ?--The McHenry County Democrat, May 3,1890. : tQT Chicago must be a greatly over- fated city if the tax books are within •bight of the truth. We have always sup­ posed it a city where comforts and luxu­ ries were common. But it seems that the j • 1 ordinary comforts of life are meagre and luxuries are very scarce indeed, the whole of Cook county there is only jjS-* £17,750 worth of diamonds and jewelry. f - We had always supposed that any one > V of the hundreds of houses on Michigan A ! 1Bvenne or the Lake Shore Drive contain- |i;- ed more than that. A night at the opera ' is very deceiving in Chicago. There are only 7,597 watches and time pieces of all , kinds in Cook county with an average v Value of $3.78. The saloons of Chicago (i * must be very cheaply fitted up, too, as r * all the property in all the saloons and / jesting houses in the whole county seems k", to be worth only $13,483. Whatapov- jL «rty stricken lot of people there must be W . in Cook county "When President Cleveland was re­ elected he tendered Daniel Lamont his former post as private secretary. Mr, Lamont, freshly returned from a year's foreign travel, recovered in health and with a quarter of a million acquired through the favor of Mr. Whitney, an swered, "Nay, Nay. Pauline" to this sec­ retaryship overture. He intimated that if he returned to Washington it must be as a cabinet minister. Asked to name his portfolio he said: "The one with the least work and worry attached." And he became Secretary of War, with an army of only 20,000 men, of a country at peace with the world. Ancient history does not possess all the wise Daniels. KaP*0f course prices are lower upon soml articles, on account of the Demo­ cratic; tariff, but the reduction is insignifi­ cant when compared with the reduction in the wages of American working men. The husband whose wages have been cut 25 per cent is in just the position to realize at its full value the benefit derived by getting the foreign woolen goods used by his family at a few cents a yard less than they were sold under the McKinley law. . "Hogffishneaa" of Railroads. A railroad will carry a man from New York to San Francisco for $80. They carry a hog weighing the same weight as a man for $6. Congressman free. The advantages in favor of being a hog is $74, and the advantage of a Congress­ man is $80. When it comes to a show­ down between the people, the swine and the average congressman, the people do not seem to be in it. The Farmer's Best Market. With whom does the agriculturist have a market for his products ? The official statements of government statisticians show that where 30 per cent of the peo pie are farmers and 70 per cent engaged in other occupations, the farmer receives $457 of an annual income, while in states where the reverse is true, 70 per cent of the people farmers and 30 per cent en gaged in bther occupations, the farmer only receives an annual income of $160-- a difference of $297 annually to the farmer who lives in a community of di versified industries as against the farmer who lives in a community of agriculture. This illustration of a market needs no enlarged statement, for all who buy and sell are thoroughly informed of these re­ sults. Texas and Pennsylvania are fair examples of the operation of this jnrinriple. STOP THE SGHEMB The Western lines running oat of Chi­ cago now have on foot a scheme that will increase their revenue and tend to demoralize business in all of the small towns in this part of the country. This scheme is nothing more or less than the putting into effect of cheap semi-weekly rates to Chicago from points within 100 miles of that city. The scheme as proposed by a promi­ nent railroad official, is to rnn speqial excursion trains to Chicago Tuesday of each week from points within 100 miles of the city at a maximum rate of not more than $2. In addition to this it is proposed to allow the same rates from the same points each Saturday, ticket* to be good for return passage up to the last train Monday night, By such an arrangement the railroad officials believe that the present deplora ble state of passenger traffic will be stim ulated, and, more important than this that business in Chicago will be greatly benefited by the influx of country visit­ ors that will be poured into Chicago by thirty-two railroads twice a week. The C. & A. has set the pace in this matter and has been met at competitive points by the Sante F-e, which has gone a little further and made a maximum rate of $2 for all these weekly excursions Within a short time al! the other roads will put these rates into effect, and then a general howl will go up from every small town within the "excursion" dis­ trict. The people were financially drain­ ed by Chicago during the Fair and this new scheme will be nothing short of an outrage upon the army ot merchants in small towns, who have been struggling along ever since the people "blowed their money in Chicago last year.--Ex. • • isli "An lntra-MuralView;" a very artistic brochure, has been received from the Curtis Publishing Company, Philadel phia, publishers of The Ladies Home Journal.

Client How Ha Obtained a Verdict for In a Texas Court. The late Gov. Throckmorton, of Texas, was once engaged in the defense of a man accused of murder. The evi­ dence against his client, says Kate Field's Washington, was too strong to be overcome by any plea except that of self defense; but the man killed was in his shirt sleeves at the time, and no one had seen him with a weapon exposed. Mr. Throckmorton at the proper junc­ ture of affairs suddenly pulled off his coat and waistcoat and, turning around so that the jury could see every side of him, inquired whether, in their judgment, he was armed or not. The answer in the negative was unanimous. With a knowing smile Mr. Throckmor­ ton proceeded to draw from under his left arm one pistol, another from under his right, one from each of his boots, and, finally, a huge bowie-knife from under his shirt at the back of his neck. As he laid the weapons in a row on the table, he said: "You, see, gentlemen, although in my shirtsleeves, it was not safe to consider me unarmed." The counsel for the prosecution knew from that moment that their case was gone. Executor's Notice, ESTATE of Martha A. Hibbard deceased.

' BWANf GREAT DEPARTMENT STORE, KLGIPi. ILL, IIIn striking; Feature. A certain judge who is blessed with a tremendous head of hair, which is generally in a state of wild disorder, was questioning a youthful witness, to make sure that he comprehended the eharacter and importance of the oath he was about to take. "Boy," he said, with his severest and most magisterial manner, "do you feel sure that you could identify me after six months. Now be careful. Think before you Speak." "Well, your honor," replied the boy, after a prolonged survey of the judge's portly figure and rugged features, "I ain't sure, but I think I could if you wasn't to comb your hair." A Peaceable People. The Nazarenes are a sect who resem­ ble the Quakers in some respects, en­ tertaining strong scruples against war in any form. They have many mem­ bers in Hungary, Transylvania and the Danube valley, and suffer many hard­ ships because of their refusal to bear arms. One of their number was re­ cently court-martialed at Kragujevatz and sentenced to ten years hard labor in chains. What He Wanted. •*, At the hospital the other morning, says Life, one of the patients was just recovering from an attack of delirium tremens, and, as is usual in such cases, desired to dress and go home more than anything else. It happened that one of the young ladies connected with the flower mission saw him, and, approach­ ing, said: "I have some beautiful roses here. Wouldn't you like some?" No response. Again she said: "Wouldn't you like to have some of these roses?" Slowly his head turned, and, slightly opening his bleary eyes, he said, much to the embarrassment of the young woman: "I'd. a blamed sight rather Uave ms pants." Thej SI tut Core. Medical skill is at a rather low ebb throughout Russia, and not without cause. An American physician, tempt­ ed by the enormous fees so frequently paid by the nobility, went to St. Pe­ tersburg and within a year had a lu­ crative practice. Then he was called in to attend a baron who was suffering from lung trouble. The doctor gave his patient the best of care and skill, but the baron died, and the widow promptly sued the doctor for damages lor unskillful treatment. The unlucky American was sentenced to pay a fine of one thousand roubles and undergo an imprisonment of thirty days. Under the circumstances it Is not surprising that the physician left Russia as soon as he got out of jail, and nothing oouId tempt him to return.
