HTMerchants having an over-stock of goods, or goods they are; likely to carry over from one season to another, will Bnd it policy to advertise prices of such goods if they conclude to run them off at a reduction.

Judging from the Esq 's deportment b6 has been at such places before When the ceremony was over, and the friends through congratulating, the newly married couple, dinner was announced and fro-n the ty ihe giod things disappeared from the table we concluded that there were none oT the guests that were bashful, especially at a table loaded with so many good things.

It was a question between the Eq. and Dr. J. R. Parry which could get away with the most tmkev.

For the Orst half hour the Eq. led, but Die cime in on the homestretch bv a neck (of a turkev) The bride received many valuibie presents among which were the follow ng: Mr. Ahram Mann, a tr'ass set; Mrs. J. Devore, bq lette; Mrs.

The Democratio platform says the Democratic parly is pledged to revise the tariff a spirit of fairness to all in terests; hut, in making reduction in tariff it is not proposed to injure any d-mettio industries, but rather to promote their healthy growth. Could anv thing be more fair, candid and patiiotio than that? Can language be plainer? Can laboring men demand more? It was aforetime alleged that even a cat might look at a king. Whatever consolation the Romans may have derived in tbe past from the adage or the fact it represented, it is no comfort to bem now.

The present trotting season, though but partly passed, has already been made memorable in tLe annals of the turf bv the fact that 'he sovereignty of tbe truck has twice passed from horse to hofxe Never, before" at feast not in receni times has (be best record been loweted twice in one year by two different hr ses. These notable ever were tbe achievements of Jay Eye-See at Provl- dence on Ang. 1, and of Maud a Cleveland on the next day.

It will not ..4. imt be surprising If the record shall agth be lowered by one or both of these famous horses before the season closes Trotting a mile iii two minutes and ten seconds has already ceased to be a wonder, and yet it is not so many years I since the achievement was looked upon as altogether improbable, if hot lrionis sible. rorty years-ago Lady SufruR as the most famous as well as the fastest of trot'ers. Yet her best time li harness, made it 1814. wis- and-witu this record ahe hld her supre macy for a dozen years ill 1859.

when Flora Temple made first a mile in and then in 2:24 Lwly Suffolk bad trotted in 2:26 in 1849, and Taony 2:25 1853, hut these acLhvements were under saddle. In 1859, Flora Temple astonished th-world by her famous performance of 2 19 at Kalamazoo, which sa ulned her title as leen of tbe Turf until when the honor was won Irora her by Dexter, with 2:17 to bis credit. Tfie same horse made a rtile two years before IriVt hut this was undr ssd-dli Dexter was dethroned in 1871 bv Goldsmith Maid. She then beat his best time by a quarter of a second, and lowered her own rpcord to 2 il6 in 1872. and to 2 16, 2 :15.

2 :14 and 2 :14 dur ing the season of 1874. rue mare's fastest mile 2 :14 was equalled by Rirus July, 1378, and ediosed a week later, when he trotted in 2:13 The Mirweaaor of Rsirns was St. Julian. He reduced the ii no to 2:12 in 1879, and to 2:11 and in thu following year, At this time Maud 3 appeared on the track. Her Dubiic nerformanr.es are few, but Very brilliant In her second recorded race July, 1880 she is credited with 2:13.

'DternbT' of tiat year she scored a mile in 2:10. which beat St. Julien'a record and made her tbe een of the Turf from that ti ne to tLis, with tbe ex ception of a lngle In July, 1831. she trotted in 2:10 and a month lot won her errand acM -vement. of a mile in 2:10.

For three years this stood as the best record. It was lowered to 2 :10 by the recent rformance of Jsy-Eve-See at Providence. This made the little gelding Kmg of the Turf, bat only for twenly-four hours. On the veiy neS- day, at Cleveland, Mr Yanderbill noble mare regained her proud laurels, and lowered the record to Tbis development of speed on the track is due primarily to the improvement of trotting stock by breeding. it there are also other very important causes.

Horses are better trained and better handled than formely. They have tbe advantage of improved spp'iances for feet an 1 legs, to say nothing of bit and rein. Then the sulkies of lo-dav are the best for speed ever made; and, finally wba1 is perhaps most tePing there has been a steady improvement in tracks All these influences have contributed materially to the lowering of the trotting tecord. How Two Wild Men ot the Wild West Died With Their Boots On. Portland Oregonian.

On Spring creek, In Meagher cottnty, a few days ago, Rattlesnake Jake i and his partner, O'Fallon, two despera does and reputed horse thievex, attempt ed to rttn a email place called Lewiston and meeting with some opposition tbey declared they would clean oat the townv and commenced shooting at everybody in sight. There were only three guns in the town and they were placet! In tbe hands of men of end aent ed. courage, who used them with such good effect that both of the supposed horse thieves were run down in a abort time, O'Pallon being shot Orst, through and through, with a Winchester riflj, and Rattlesnake served in a like manner, a short time af lerward, Both men showed great pluck O' Fallon, after being shot through, rode back to his partner and asked him if he was burt, Jake said that be was. said O'Fallon, "I am shot and 1 am a dead man, bvit I will stay with you." At tbat moment be fcil from bis. horse, then raised himself tapon his knees, took deliberate aim with a.

Winchester at a young man named Smith, an outsider; who was trying to ret away from the fracas, and shot him through tbe head. killing him instantly. The cititens saw that there would be more men killed if tbe tbing was not ended iickly, and shooting from pis tols of all s'ses commenced in earnest O'Pillon look Ave shots in the body be fore be fell the second lime, and tben he raised himself on his side and continued shooting nntil be had not strength enough to support himself, and after lying down he kept shooting as long as there was life in him Rattlesnake Jake, after he Was Shot through the body, kept shooting; then bis right arm was broken by a ball and be changed to bis. left hand and kept shooting; another' ball broke his right leg fend, supporting himself by the otber, kept shooting; another ball struck hie chin, carrying away half of "his jaw. when he Tell on the eround, raised himself on his side and kept shooting.

From weakness he could not support himself any longer, and he Bred lying fliton the ground. There were nine halls in him before he gave Hp.

A Man Probably Fatally Hrlrtlnrt CJuarnl Over a ence. Belmont county Is at iiring quite a criminal reputation. Haidly had the tragedy died out nntil Another one is reported from the vioioity of Flushing, where two farmers fell out about "a line fence." Stanton Hatnhle ton, oldest son of Rev K. Harohle ton, struck his neighbor, Walker Car penter, on the head, crushing his shall and leavirg birfi in a very precarious condition, tae circumstances of tbe iairel are related about as follows' the two neighbors have had some troub le about their fences and almost made the road impassable. The supervisor noiifipd them to fpttove the fences, and Carpenter compliei.

Hambleton did not, and the man of Ihe roads removed it. Recently Carpenter, says the Barnes-ville Republican, was doing some tight work on the road, and throwing some loose stone on the Hambleton sidp, where there Is no fence. Stanton Hambleton, a young man about 18 years o' age, left his team where he wis plowing in tbe field, and went to see what he was doing. A diSptlte COmtfienced and bad language Was used. Carpenter Struck at tbe other with a hoe, when Stanton threw a stont at him striking just behind the ear.

Carpenter walked into the house and laid down His daughter inquired if he was sick, an I receiving no answer, thought he did not wish to bs di. turbed and left him alone. Later she became alarmed at his silence and weflt to him' A pool of blood 'had fied from the wourld to the carpet. A doctor Wis once' and theexanirnation showed the wound to be about a i inch and a half lorig, and part of tbe dista the skull was crushed. He is at times insensible and his recovery is verv doubtful.

Who Has Done It? The Republican party has controlled t'e national administration for twenty four years, and are responsible in every way for tbe present condition of affiire A Republican Congress has enscted all the laws, and a Republican President has executed them It is, therefore, respon sible Let the workingmen, therefore, su'Vey the field and. as? themselves whether or not it has'becn satisfactory in its results. Has it brought prosperity Has labor found regular employment? Has it commanded remunerative wa ges? Are not mills and filrnaces and facto-liesclosfd? Are not thousands of workmsn unem-ployed? Are not those who have work, taxed to defend their fellow workmen against the oppression of their employers Are not wages in many industries reduced to tbe barest pittance Are not constant efforts still being made to reduce them Has not the leal and watchfulness of the Republican administration been directed to (be enrichment of the corporations and millionaires? Has not James G. Blaine been the foremost actor in those schemes by wbich the few have been benefitted at tbe expense of the many A candid answer to these questions will demonstrste how much of folly there is in any workingrxan looking to tbe election of Blaine for relief from his present troubles.
