-7 v. A The Daily Democrat Published every- afternoon except Sunday I by BEN F. I LITER, CtAYTow Block, r' THURSDAY; FEB. 25 1893. Democratic Mass Convention.

A convention of. the Democratic votr era of the City of Hnnlington will be held at the court house' in the City of Huntington, at 7:30 o'clock, on Saturday Kvenlng, February 7, ISM, for the purpose of selecting a committeeman from each of the several voting precincts of the city and for the transaction of such other business as may arise. A full attendance is requested. By order of City Committee. Johx Altaian, Chairman.

K. A. Kxvtuax, Sec'y. The business men should not be absent- from the Democratic convention Saturday evening. The laboring men should not be absent from the convention Saturday evening and won't be.

Business men, attend the Democratic convention at 7:30, Saturday evening, at the court house. Gov. Peck, of Wisconsin, says that if the people want Hill they will find him and that he need not carry a sandwich Hign. Ingeusom. says a politician wants the people to do something for him; a statesman wants to do something for the people.

"Tiik Democratic city convention next Saturday evening should be attended by all Democratic voters of the city who can possibly get there. Hon. Jamks 1. McCabe, of Williams-port, will be a candidate for the Democratic nomination of one of the supreme judgeships. Fine lawyer and a good man.

Chief Justice Marshall once said a corrupt judiciary was the worst curse a God in righteous wrath' could inflict on a sinful people. Judge Woods should ponder hid words. Will Mr. John. Surran, of the Warren Republican please name a few articles on which the tariff has increased the price? Please do, Mr.

Republican; we want to hear from you. Agents of various trusts are being prosecuted in Texas, for "conspiracy against trade" under a new criminal law of that state. What would become of Chicago grain speculators, with such a law in Illinois? W. M. Ibanklin, of Spencer, Indiana, will be a candidate the next Democratic State Convention for the nomination of Appelate Judge in the first district.

Sf Franklin will receive strong support. Xo legislative candidate should receive editorial support until he pledges himself to vote for the repeal of the Grubb's law. But this brings us to a consideration of the Rvalue of a candidate's pledge and here we pause. Hartford City Telegram. The shutting down this evening, of H.

K. Clayton Son's foundry is something very much to be deplored. About fifteen men are thus thrown out of employment. Huntington has not any too many manufactories, none to spare. Here is a good subject for our Board of Trade to work on.

R. Bkown came out in the Herald with an historical account of Puritan persecution and bigotry. Does not Mr. Brown remember that the Republican party claims to have sprung from Plymouth Rock and that everything good in America is a result of the peculiar civilization of the Pilgrim fathers? Speaking of tariff revision, Major McKinley said in a recent speech: VMorrison tried that in 1888, and his face has not been seen' in the house since. Mills tried it and lost the speakership.

rover Cleveland in 1888 went shearing that sheep- and he came back "Yes, we believe that Major McKinley tried it too and he did not go back and that a good many of the Republicans who -voted for McKinley's method of "trying it" didn't go back. Mr. Cleveland said to the Ann Arbor students' that principles to be cultivated were: "A reverent belief in God; a sincere recognition of the value i and power of moral principle and those qualities of heart which make a noble manhood, devotion to unreserved patriotism, love for man's equality, unquestioning trust in popular rule, exaction of civic virtue and honesty, faith in the saving quality of universal education, protection of a free and un-perverted expression of the popular will, and an insistence upon a strict accountability of public as servants of the people." j- In giving attention to great national affairs and state affairs, there in a tendency to attach too little im-' portance to municipal rThis id a matter of importance and deserves our attention. -city election is near hand. The; sCatute provides that this 'shall take 'place ion the "first Tuesday in.

May, that being this year the- Srd day of. May. The elactioa will ci course, as the new Uw pro- of voting. A mayor, clerk, marshal, treasurer; and three out; of six oouncdmen and one water works trustee will be elected in the Hunting ton city election. The office of city assessor, has been abolished by stateJ law.

The city attorney, city civil engineer and street commissioner are appointed by the common council. 1 The council holds the same position relative In Importance- to the govern ment of the city as the county com- missioners do'in the county. It is of great importance in a city to select the proper material for councilmen. We are all interested in the prosperity of Huntington. The value of property depends largely on the course of the city government.

The city govern ment just about means the common council. Every enterprise under taken for the common good, every im provement of the streets, every addition laid out for plat accepted, the general conduct of business, the regulation of city licenses, the erection and maintenance of city public buildings, the protection and preservation of private property from fire and other causes of destruction, the supervision of personal safety under an effective system of police, the administration of the city, citizens collectively, these and many other municipal interests are subjects in which all citizens are intimately -concerned. A good council man should be a man of good judgment, of practical ideas and good executive ability, well informed and progressive and, above all, having a good quantity of old-fashioned, hard, cornfield common sense. He should be an observer of men and things, never too obstinate to change his mind when convinced of error, and doing his duty without fear or favor. The mayor, clerk, treasurer, and marshal and water works trustees should likewise be the best men that can be found for the respective posi tions they will hold.

The Democratic party of Huntington has plenty of good men. No man should ask for nomination unless willing, if a majority of Democrats think somebody else a better man for the place than he, to support with ardor and enthusiasm the candidate nominated. If the Democrats will see that the best men are selected for the ticket from the field, there is no doubt that with an ordinary amount of work, that the whole ticket can be elected.

"Yes, there's an article on valuable dogs, and it speaks of one that was sold for ten thousand dollars.

I don't believe it." "It may be true, James," she said, quifctly. "Some, of those blooded ani-mals" bring fancy prices, and there's no particular reason why the paper should lie about it" "I know that, Maria, but just think of it just try to grasp the magnitude of that sum in your weak, feminine rr mat bb rnuE, Yon don't seem to realize it.
