ILL * 00.*8 N«w»j*j>er Advertising » (W8PTOM gtmft where advertising arises NEW YORK MP*it Elgin, HI., Monday, 1,800 lbs. of butter sold at 28% cents, and 14,460 lbs. at 28 cents. A year ago butter brought 23 cents. •Hi* Why, certainly, that is the cause of It. Mr. Fassett, the defeated candidate lor Governor of New York, was born on the 13th, married on the 13th, nominated On the 13th, his name has 13 letters in it as he sijnts it, and he belongs to a 13 Club. Why look further for causes? MTThe Woodstock correspondent erf |lp tie Chicago later-Ocean, has the follow­ ing to say of McHenry county politics: f "Since the election politics has been « breeding. The county fight over who Is to be the next Circuit Clerk is uppermost. \f Several candidates are in the field. There i no doubt but what the present incum­ bent, W. P. Morse, will be renominated. ;• :ylle has made a good clerk, was a prisoner t~< in Andersonville: in fact, nuch a man as the people delight to honor." 1ST Summing up the remits It appears that the Republicans have failed to elect governors in New York, Massachusetts and Iowa, but have carried the legisla­ tures of the last named States, and se­ cured one branch, at least of the New York legislature; they have carried Pennsylvania, Nebraska and Colorado^ by large majorities, and in Kansas, where a year ago the Farmers' Alliance which a year ago dominated everything, has faded away to nothing under the warmth of immense crofte. In nearly all the elections except that of Ohio, the issues were local and do not give a good indication of the drift of public opinion toward partita. In Ohio the contest was on the national issue and the verdict of last fall decidedly reversed, indicating that the drift of sentiment was toward protection and that it will be^ sustained in a national contest. The Republicans appear to have lost nothiog which they before possessed in the local contest, and to have gained a verdict in their favor where the national question has been the issue. This fact makes the outlook for the presidential year most promising. . 1ST Prohibition has defeated the Re- > * ; publicans in Iowa. The State that once . rolled up 80,000 majority now elects a ^ Democratic governor for the third time. |T, The prohibition issue is, in a large meas- «re, responsible for this change of front. ' The people of Iowa are not in favor of ,f W' prohibitory laws, and Democracy is win- , Sing there on high license issues. These nay not be consoling views to temper- f * Ance people but they are cold facts. -~Yorkville Record. |p % IW Senator Sherman says that the re­ sult of the Ohio campaign fixes the silver question as one of the issues of the next 1 t presidential contest, and decides it so far f'. - as Ohio is concerned. He regards the V . tariff question as settled for the time being, but in the next canvass will be a , leading issue with the silver question. He is not disturbed about the next pre*- iQentiai canvass whoever is the nominee. He believes the Republicans will win it in :! any event. Senator Sherman is not given ; to idle boasting. He is a cool, conserva- ^ tive man who looks at everything in a £,•», mathematical kind of way. 19" Keep the young young, says a wise writer in the Chicago Post. Youthfnlnesa in age is better than a bank account with premature decrepitude. What man can enjoy his money if he be broken down and senile in middle life? What pleasure there to him in the contemplation of his dollars when the body is weak and drained of its vigor? Bnt with health everything is possible. And there comes to the poor healthy man and the poor healthy woman a keen relish of life, a strong pulsating of the heart, a buoyancy and a joy to live that no amount of money can buy. It cannot be bought because it is one of Nature's best gifts. And while Nature bestows these gilts gen­ erously, they are never sold in the mar­ ket place. ' W Upwards of 200 ot the leading wheat growers in Southern Illinois, South- eartern Missouri, Weston Kentucky and Tennesse, are holding a convention at Cairo, in response to a call issued by a committee. The purpose of the meeting was to incorporate the Inter-State Wheat Growers Association, whose aim it shall be to improve the facilities for handling and shipping wheat at Cairo. Among the enterprises contemplated by the Association is the erection of a new ele­ vator with a capacity of 1,000,000 bushels, which shall be entirely under the control of the association. The move­ ment is looked upon with favor by all interests in Cairo and is being substan­ tially encouraged. *2.* I®* Fifteen locomotives were recently \ (lent from Baltimore to Branl in a Single Steamship. They were built by the 4" Baldwin Locomotive works of New Jersey. This was one of several ship- • ' . mente of the kind that have already been made. Each locomotive represents jj. , many thousands of dollars paid to i American workingmen, and every time they sound their whistles they will speak their praise of American industry and ingenuity. Unfortunately American , steamships could not be had, owing to our mistaken policy in the matter of f ; shipbuilding and as a consequence they . bad to be shipped upon a British craft. Captain Kron, of Lexington, Mass., a Union veteran, survived twenty battles of the civil war, including Cold Harbor, where he lost an arm, to die at the age of sixty-four through having his foot trod­ den on in a street car. The pressure on bunion caused inflammation, gangrene set in and he died after a week's illness. I9"ln summing up his opinio^ of the recent election Ex-Senator lngalls said in ®n interview. "It means the renomina- tion of Harrison, with Cleveland as his antagonist, upon substantially the same issues as presented in 1888. Kansas is a Blaine state, but the sentiment in favor of Harrison has been gaining ground the last year, and it would not be difficult to secure a delegation in his favor. His ad­ ministration, is regarded as a wise, con­ servative; dignified, and patriotic, and a failure to renominate him would be to express distrust of his motives and dis satisfaction with his policy. I want to say that the campaign in Ohio was con­ ducted on a very high plain. It was a campaign of principles devoid of person­ alities. Nothing more creditable has ever occurred in American politao|,M If 10^ Japan may be a very delightful | ; country as all tourists describe it, but 'f-l one would hardly care to be there during k -• stlfth an earthquake as has recently l&r' shaken the island from center to circum ierenoe. in which three large towns have §k->. k®611 destroyed, and, it is estimated, 3*»,000 lives have been lost. In several , places fire and flood combined with the earthquake to make the destruction more r complete. The crash came without warn . ^, , ing, and there was little opportunity for fg-lt escape. Mankind and all his works seem bk frail when the mighty forces of na­ il' . lure crack the earth beneath him. How >,, utterly insignificant this little man-ani­ mal became in the presence of such forces. •r and how trivial his petty contentions with his fellows. It is probably necessary that the world should be reminded once fei a while how insignificant it really is. I®* The President has appointed Thursday, Nov. 26th, "to be a day of joyful thanksgiving to God for the boun­ ties of Bis Providence, for the peace in which we are permitted to enjoy them and for the preservation of those institu­ tions of civil and religious liberty which He gave our fathers in the wisdom to de­ vise and establish, and us the courage to preserve. Among the appropriate ob servances of the day are rest from toil, worship in the public congregation, the renewal of families about our Ameri­ can firesides, and thoughtful helpfulness toward those who suffer lack of the body or of the spirit." " General Harrison means all he says. His proclamation breathes the spirit of thankfulness and charity. These years of our national history since 1861, have been wonder­ fully productive of wealth, strength and prosperity, bnt with all these there is the great need of charity. The poor we have always with us. THE Silver Leaf Tea beats the world So say all who have tried it. For sale in by John I Story. PRINT SALE.
