“Oh hateful error! melancholy’s
child
Why dost thou show the apt
heart of man
The tilings that am no.t”
Ye editors why have you deceiv
ed us so long (you know we sup
pose vou .knew every thing past,
presen: and future)—by telling us
that Grover was sum of remaining
in office another term, that Frankie
would still be the first lady of the
hind. Not one thought ever troubl
ed my devoted heart, Now you tell
us that “Cleveland must go’' and it
must be so. Oh I’d faint * right
now If 1 knew bow, and wern't
afraid of falling. Rut since I have
taken time to think alxnit it I’m
not so uneasy, I remember when
! Garfield Was elected I thought we
were Haully ruined, the political
payers of that campaign had made
me believe that he was outside of
la 1 penitentiary, only because, no
'•>ne wOllld -too]) low enough to
•ouble it ',.. Rut after he was eleet
—wounded —and died, those
i.jo paper? put on morning—and
UWi .;P no; bo consoled because
Garfield was not saying woe woe,
unto this people, for now the great
est man among you has fallen, “‘Oh
consistency thou art a jewel” not
found in politicians.
But I am glad the smoke of the
battle has cleared away. The vic
tors are happy, the banquish i.ro
nettled.
And many are wearing new titles
to-day
For which their luckless oppo
nents have settled.
Many times have I heard a wom
an wish Oh that I were a man. I
am so glad I’m not one. I’m glad
an office will never have to elms 1
me to death throgh cold and rain,
to catch me. Yea lam very glad
that I do not now, iike many poli
ticians have to do, set on the cold
-tool of re pen to nee and view dying
nature, while I mentally sing:
The .nay flower will come hack
and the violet.
And the blossoms that bloom on
the tree
But the twenty five dollars I lost
on a bet.
Will never come hook to me,
I believe in a change now, and
then, bur Cleveland had only just
settled down to business in good
earnest. I want Clements beat.
It looks like 10 or 12 y iars ought
to satisfy any reasonable man. Bill
Arp says, why don’t office holders
rotate? How graceful] it would
he for one of tin in to say, ray
friends 1 (bank you for the honor
you have done me for the past 8 or
10years, but thoae are many other
good men who aie competent and
worth, and would like tube honor
ed by you, so I will respectively
retire, I never knew hut one man
to do that and he died very soon.,
died because ho resigned I guess.
Monday: My head is too full
of last nights lecture to write any
more politics now. I was fully
satisfied on all the subjects discuss
ed by our speaker, but Lots wife
I teel sure she must be there some
where. The accident dint happen
ed to that poor woman was a mel
ancholy eVent —one I always have
regreted, put I venture the asser
tion, that fnm then till now, not
one woman has li.uxl, or died, who
Would not have done the same
thing under similar circumstances.
Woman may love and honor hut
she will never learn to obey, her
pronunciation of the word for
bidden leaves the first three letters
silent, as shown in the conduct of
Lot’s w.fe, btmisou’s wife, and Ad
man’s wife, and a long chain of
female celebrities reaching from
Semeramis to Nalley Hart, ‘‘To
• tell a woman not to do a thing ex
cites her curiosity to know wlmt
will he result of disobedience, and
a womans eurisosity is equal to a
cyclone, or an unquellellable
insurrection” so says a cynical old
Bachelor. “Trixy” please write
again we do love to hear from
your vicinity. More Anon.
AUNT POLLIE.
At Home, Nov. 13th 1888,
Editor News :
The result of the election on the
6th has about knocked me sense
less and quenched all the political
fire within me, lam astonished,
stunned, my feelings are hurt, and
lam mad, Cleveland beat; yes it
must be so, We believed as much
in the suocess of the Democratic
party as we didin the existence of
a God, and when a party of corrup
tion. and impftre principles is al
lowed to triumph over old Democ
racy, our del ief is shaken, and w e
are forced to believe the Devil got
in som (i of his best work in this
campoigu of the right against the
wrong,
Rut all recriminatons are vain
and useleis and we med just settle
down to “buis*’, and begin shap
ing tilings for 1892; and drive the
devil out of the county.
You may break you may shatter our
hopes if you will .
but w’ll cling to the principles of
Democracy still.
Mr. Editor in the quietude of my
home with a,il th- Meet ions
! coming to my miun, bought.
■ i would contest th \> ie busi
ness and seat Cleveland n spite of
! all, but the prom rings of rnv bot-n
1 ter nature prevailed, and have i do
cidod to let them have the country
in their own hands for he next)
four years, believing like Dave
Forster did about the deer-just let
them alone and they will kill them
selves.
My wife thinks if I had consented
to my name going before the Con
gressional Convention (which
would have beaten Clements) that
I might have staved oft' many of
the Hepuclican m ensures that.»n j
bound to follow the ace 'ssion of the j
Republican party into power, nndj
had I forseen the election results,
I would certainly have accepted
the nomination for Congress from
this district—not because I dislike
Clements hut 1 would have done it
for the interest of my party, and
not to satisfy any political greed
wieh 1 have not,
As I have always been sorter
looked up to to ’• advice in this conn
ty I will just say to the people, to
cease bothering about politics and
lco to work to raise some good old
Democratic farm t.iuek to feed the
Democratic babies springing up
around us, If we can see all these
farm products in sight I will
vouche for the babies, On county
matters, Mr Editor I am “with you
even until death,” Of course we*
hould nave a county court although
some may say “we triedit and it
was abolished,’’ Yes the Superior
court and the Justices Courts
would also be abolished if some
peulo had ther way, but they won't
have their way this time for the
majority is going to rule,
When au improvem mt is sug
ge Ted 6 ver our old system uf work
ing public roads, we should first
know that it is an improvements
before we adopt it. No system, in
my opinion could be devvsied that
would be as advantageous to th e
people in general, than the old way
of working our public roads, pro
vided the law is carried out and
men are made do their duty. To
be eft’eetive, a law must be carried
oitt to the letter else it will prove
a failure. Well, I would li to to
lengthen out on this subject of
public roads, bui I may want sound
of you space again in future, and
pou may think I have writtin
enough for and will stop!
right here.
