It is a, w*tfe «f V' 1ST A Democratic paper remarks: "If «ifcio and Iowa be kept in the Democratic tt^amn." That if is a small word, but it •neatis a great deal in that connection. /A Bijigle frost sometimes spoils an entire harvest, or an earthquake shakes up vtHfj staid communities; but the good l«pple go on planting next year, and the •«rthquake only comes once in a life- 340"'Comtmsoner of pension Raum has ftened an order defining and regulating t he duties of the Deputy Commissioners. It is generally believed that new men, friends of Gen. Raum, are to fill these positions in a few days. One of thein, Mir. Smith, who was acting Com mission- during the period between Commis­ sioners Tanner and Raum, will, it is sup- ftoped. be provided for elsewhere. The tidier, Gen. Bartlett, who is a hold-over fcmotrat, will be allowed to resign. 'lis?" Aurora Beacon: The effort of the democratic press to represent that there is. a breach between the president and the Illinois senators over the appointment of Gen. Raum as pension commissioner is a j*)ariug piece of mendacious effrontery. ^Congressmen Hopkins had a talk with i^enator Farwell on Monday in which the frjenator expressed himself as highly pleased with the appointment of General tlaum and declared that it was one of the best strokes of the administration. Con­ gressman Hopkins also regards the ap­ pointments as an exceptionally fine one. ll®"Elgin Courier: When a Prohibition ujiolitician deliberately states from the platform that the press and pulpit of this country are dominated by the Iftfruor / traffic he utters words which he knows to |»e false. That the saloon-keeper can in 0uence the clergyman is absurb, and . tjhere is no branch of business so utterly unproductive to the newspaper as his. A few paltry subscriptions he contributes • f|ut the life-blood of the newspaper, its f - • iibvertising, he does not effect. The ' ^trouble with our prohibition friends is ;; " ^hat when they indeavored to carry the ^ , temperance movement into politics as an ||Hy of the Democratic party they divorc- {.. ed themselves from the Republican press. SI (ST* A few weeks ago Charles Lemmers, (Young Bayonet Points,) local editor the MeHenry County Itcmocr.-it, jtublinh ed several short articles from what he termed Republican papers, mildly ensur­ ing Corporal Tanner on account of his management of the Pension office while Commissioner of Pensions, and as the , readers of our Soldiers Department will j recollect, challenged Wm. II. Cowlin, the j editor of said Department, to copy the j same, which he was not slow to do, and in such a manner that brought Young } Bayonet Points almost to the verge of insanity, which can readily be seen by reading what he offered In reply in the Democrat of two weeks ago, which can be found in our Soldiers Department, this week. Our advice to Lemmers is to go and soak his head in ice water. By let­ ting a continual stream pour upon it for several weeks perhaps it will help bring him to a realization of what un ass he has been making of himself for some time past, in his efforts to pose as a friend of the old soldier,, after all that he has said to the contrary in nearly every issue of the Democrat, and which the old vete­ rans iu all^ parts of the county have not been slow to catch on to. As for Mr. Cowlin he is perfectly able to paddle his own canoe, as our readers well know, and there is not an ex-soldier in MeHenry county who has more or stauncher friends than he, and he deserves t<6 be thus recognized. I®"It sounds a trifle strange to read the following sensible editorial in the Chi­ cago Tribune: "No matter how the free trader Democrats may twist and squirm there is no getting away from the pro­ position that the price of a commodity is made up of the cost of the raw material, the wages of labor, profit on capital in­ vested, and the expense of carrying the product to the consumers. Labor is the great item, and if the product is sold in a high rate market from which cheap com­ petitors are excluded high wages can be paid. Throw such a market open and its trade will be seized by the producers who have the cheapest labor and capital. In the ensuing competition wages would have to be cut, raw material cheapened as much as possible, the charges of mid­ dlemen and carriers reduced, and the manufacturers who could shave the cost of production the closest would com­ mand the trade. England is at least as well situated as the United States is res­ pect to possessing raw materials, abund­ ant capital, cheap transportation, and the ability to use machinery and steam power. In a free contest the victory would go to the country which could get the labor cost of production lower than the other. The plain truth is that the triumph of Democratic free trade means the substitution of the English rate of wages for the American, and those Demo­ crats who deny it are trying to deceive the wage-workers. VILLAGE LOTS FOR SALE. For sale, two very desirable village lots in West MeHenry. Centrally located. For further particulars inquire at this' office. MT Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding Ihe Division of the Pacific, has submitted llis annual report to the War Depart- "ftient. On the subject of desertion of ' *hich there were 405 cases out of 6,040 ' Jjften, Gen. Miles urges, among other rfhings, that their enlistment be made for three instead of five years; that worthy Alien be allowed to re-enlist for one year; that sergeants be paid $50 a month; that the artillery branch be increased, <$nd that men, so far as possible, be al­ lowed to' choose in what division they jfcall serve. Gen. Miles has much to say jfUso upon coast defenses. He says that *o property defend the Pacific coast it Would require 573 modern guns and mortars at a cost of over thirty million dollars. • iQf Congress will be called upon early the session to discover and putin force methods of relieving the Supreme €tourt docket of its enormous burden of ©aees. When the court opened its pres­ ent term it found over 1,300 cases await­ ing final action. Without the filing of mi additional case the regular terms for three years would be occupied in clear­ ing the docket. But every year increases tJie average number of cases filed. Wid­ ening business transactions start legal Jgaestions that as yet have not been an­ swered by the courts. The Supreme ..Courtis inadequate to consider half of ^jem. As it is, suitors wait for years to lie heard, for, warned by the example of others, they rather suffer injustice than •sk the court for a decision that may not rendered in years. ' (9" Kentucky has added one more to its list of tragedies by which otherwise •; good men, in whose minds hatred of an enemy was the paramount thought, have lost their lives. At Lexington, Friday, Colonel H. M. Swope,. ex-Collector of In­ ternal Revenue, and Colonel William Cas- itius Goodloe, present holder of that office, met in the post office. Some hot words were exchanged, whereupon Hwope drew a revolver and shot (ioodloe in the abdomen. The wound­ ed man drew a knife, grappled with Uis enemy, and in the struggle that fol­ lowed Swope was stabbed thirteen times, As he fell he shot Goodloe a second time jni<l then expired. Goodloe walked to a jihysician's office to get his wounds at­ tended to, but it is not deemed possible that he can survive his injuries. The two men who thus did battle to death were lioth Republicans, who have been rivals PS in past years for the leadership of the x party in their State. The fued between , them gradually increased in bitterness, They have frequently met under circum •tauees that seemed to promise a fatal encounter, but friends kept them apart. Doth were splendid specimens of physical %i^,manhood and were in the prime of health DR. B. MINCER, The old reliable Dr. B. Mincer, the Eye Specialist will visit this place occasion­ ally, the time of which will be duly noticed.
