Rockford watches, at the Post Office Jewelry Store. President Cleveland has relatives Hiving in this county. Republicans are now saying: Rev. John Ferguson did it. Oar merchants are hopeful of bettor trade from now on. Thos. Fleming will probably go into the grocery business. Sullivan county gives 1,601 Democratic majority, a gain of 543. The Democratic majority in Knox county is 384, a net gain of 128. Watches, clocks, jewelry, gold pens and silverware at the Post Office. A good Democrat will soon be wanted to take charge of the poor form. The ticket was elected through and through. Glory cuough and to spare! Go to the Post Office Jewelry Store and see the Flying Pendulum* Clock. B9UN—To Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bilderback, Saturday, Nov. 8th, a girl. . -■■■ .. Leap year days are dwindlingdown to numbers small, as leaf by leaf the rosea fall. The Democrats of Madison township haveoovered themselves all over | With glory._ Flckles or vinegar will not keep in a jar that has ever had auy kind of grease in it. - Before baying your silverware, go and see Hammond’s new design, at the Post Office. The country is saved, and people m find time to look after business and social matters. I’rces has been enlarged to an paper. The paper is a c mut *0 tneyart preservative of arts.”

A Democratic Board of Commissioners is oaeof tho fru its of our great victory iu Pike county.. Mr. Kleiner carries every count}’ in the district except Gibson,' amt came very near carrying that. • Since the opening of circuit court Friday, Nov. 7th, probate matters have consumed the time. Every name on the ticket voted by Democrats in Pike county was elected. What more could we ask. The gallant Democracy of Pike in every township deserve praise for their work on Tuesday, Nov. 4th. Shake! The wiki shonts of delight of the boys was music for tlia Democrats but wormwood and gall for the Republicans. , ■

To-morrow. November 14th, is Arbor day. All the school yards in the county should have trees put iu them on that day. The man who isn’t sincerely glad that the election is over would be a curiosity, or rather, and more truly, a monstrosity. Taro years from now the Democrats of this county will see to it that W. J. Bethell’s place is filled with a good Democrat. Will F. Hisgen and Miss Motile Pinuick were married Monday evening. We teuderour congratulations to the young couple. The Commissioners of the Louisville exposition have forwarded two car loads of Indiana’s products to the world’s exposition. We have elected every candidate on the county and district tickets by large (and several of the candidates have greatly increased) majorities. Our Republican friends who relied on their party organs for information have doubtless come to the conclusion that they have been lied to most outrageously. We arc now ready for the President to issue hie emancipation proclamation. He can't do it too soon either. Democrats are ready to proceed with all necessary thanks. An exchange says that “homely girls make the best wives.” We’ll wager a cent the man, that wrote that item has a homely wife, and wrote it to please her. % The Tocololo Medicine .Co., of Washington, Iud., shipped a barrel of Tocololo to Chattannooga, Team, last Monday. This medicine is getting a world %ide reputation. Take it as a rule, the constant advertiser is the oue who does a profitable business, and not the one who flashes his announcements at irregular intervals upon the public. Wm. J. Shrode, Democratic candidate for Sheriff, leads the ticket in nearly every township iu the county. The Press is not popular wi'h its party and a number of Republicans took this method of rebuking it. The Daviess Democ racy elected their entire county ticket by a majority of 200 over the ticket the Republicans were so sure of electing. The Democrats, of Daviess are good fighters. The Democracy of Pike scud greeting. We can testify tha t a number of onr patrons are bearers of the “cross.” They never pay any attention to the “cross” that we put on their Democrat notifying them that they are indebted to this office for subscription. ■0. v Our office was crowded all day Saturday, nearly all the prominent Democrats in the county being in town. They were anxious to learn the election news. All departed with happy feelings over the glad tidings of comfort and joy. “No„’ said the mcrchaut, “I don’t advertise now. I used to. but I got completely tired out waiting on customers. Since the time I stopped that advertisement 1 have had a continual vacation and been able to discharge two of my clerks.” The farmers are taking advantage of this fine weather to get in their corn. The bottom farmers, especially, are wide awake and are working all the hands they can get. No excuse for tramps to roam about the country begging for something to eat Do not deny youir children the use of the home paper They will read the county news when they will read nothing else, and children who acquire the habit of reading are always tire most apt pupils at school. The home paper is the cheapest educator you can get

Charley Schaefer, Jr., met with an accident Tuesday morning. While moving some barrels in the cellar of his father’s saloon a barrel full oi whiskey fell upon him and bruiaed his legs considerably. He suffered great pain for a while, but is now able to be out. The Stockport Sentinel on the 8th of Nov., 1882, hoisted the name bf Cleveland for President, and Cray for Governor. Bro. Armstrong claims that his paper was the first in the country to put up the name of Gov.. Cleveland for President. Give Bro.. A. anything he wants. Messrs. Fleming & MeCartv have sold their livery stable to Messrs. Cnatscy & Woods, of Morgantown, Ind. They took possession Saturday. Messrs. Fleming & McCarty are exceedingly accommodating gentlemen, and we wish theih success iu what - ever business they may embark in. It is hoped that business will now revive. The long And intensly bitter campaign is at an end, and every bodyshould lie thankful for it The holidays will soon be upon us, aud in this connection we might inform our merchants that the place to put an advertisement where it will do the most good, is in the Dmocbat. A new counterfeit $10 note ou the Third National Bank of Cincinnati has appeared. It is described as “of the series of 1882, with the brown or chocolate colored back. The vignettes on the face of the note have a coarse, scratchy appearance, but the back is well executed and calculated to deceive. Look out for them. Now, boy s, be geuerous to the fallen foe. Remember, they are not very well acquainted with the placid waters of Salt river. The briars and bushes that line its banks will net deal kindly with their tender feet. Their velvety garments will soon be torn and ragged, So boys be kind and generous to the afflicted, for soie is the disaster that has befallen thorn. ssn

The following outlines graphically depict the countenances of our (idtens last Saturday, when the f nal news came settling the Presidential election: DEMOCRAT. REPUBLICAN-. It has been a week of excitement in Pe tersburg. The scene has been an animated one. The fun commenced on Tuesday night of last week v-heu the first election uews were received. Every Democrat wore a smile till he retired about S a. m., Wodneday, Nov. 5th. They were enthusiastic The Republicans tired of receiving news favorable to the Democrats, retired early. Before night on Wedn esday their hopes were reviv<id by receiving favorable news only to be crushed when the next morning came. The scene again changed, and Thursday afternoon the Republicans were again cheering and Democrats wore long faces, and went to bed a tan early hour. Friday the Democratic skies became bright and were not obscured by any more clouds. By Sunday the majority of the Republicans felt that Cleveland had carried New York and was the next man to occupy the Presidential chair. Rati%ati)n. The vicitory in the county, State and nation was ratified by onr De nocratie citizens Tuesday night. Early in the afternoon the firing of anvils'gave notice. Business houses, offices and private residences were illuminated at night. The Jasper band a id Calamauck glee club furnished the music. A fine torch-light processim with men and boys carrying transparencies paraded tlie principal streets, rheering over the great victory. There was the utmost enthusiasm. The tin horn added to the general noise. Fireworks were displayed al >ng Main street with splendid effect The crowd gathered at the corner of Seventh and Main streets and listened to short speeches by J. M. Doyle, J. B. Barker, Mr. Chester, Hons. James Barker, E. A. Ely ai d Wm. F. Townsend. The following from the Jasper Courier shows how the opponent of Judge Welborn tried to “get in his work” in Dubois county. Despite this trick Mr. Welborn carried the county by 1,385: We permitted the Times man to take our forms of tickets to his office last week to do the press work, thinking him honorable enough to not use them for any fraudulent purpose. But great was our surprise on Monday to be sliowu a ticket, p rinted from our forms, with the name of i Democratic nominee, Judge Welborn, taken out, and that one of the iyed-in-the-wool, strongest cotton-mouthed Radicals in the world, inserter, in its stead. We immediately sent for our forms and stopped the rascality as far as prmting was concerned, but not as theYroting was concert ed. The returns show that a number of these fraudulent tickets w ere voted, and no doubt iu many instance;- by men who supposed they were vot ng a straight Democratic ticket If men desired to oppose Judge Welborn -vith a Republican they should have had honor enough to have taken “Democratic Ticket” off of the top. Men guilty of frauds of this, kind! w ill bear very close watching to keep them from committing other crimes. Stern honesty and honor should govern all political contests, and all honorable men will have nothing to do with- frauds.

SOCIETY SI TES. “On with the dance—let joy be unconflned.” Euchre parties arc low considered the proper amusement. A leap year party is talked of. The young men are willing. Beaded trinuniugi of all kinds, jet, steel and iridescent, will be worn this winter. The ladies of Petersburg are strong politicians. They to lk politics like veterans. Fancy stationery 5e no longer good form, and the correct thing is said to be plain white with a single initial. If there be one ouch of nature which shows all womankind akin it is the blush which greets a proposal, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. Mav be the writer “had Itcen there” several times. Leap year will s< on be gone, and the rights of the ft ir sex to call the attention of v'oung men to connubial matters will be r bridged till 1888. But then that need not have any effect upon the int trimonial market. An exchange w noted to know recently what a “caj ote” was. We call attention to the following fashion item: The capotr has resumed its place as the bonne t par excellence. It somewhat sma ler than that worn in the spring, ai d. there are a few modified forms, but they are only changeful phrasoi of the old familiar

“Sleeping i«rr«.** A fine steel engraving of Perault’s charming picture, “Sleeping Love,” has been offered by the publishers of Godxy’b Lady’s Book to every new subscriber to the mag*sine for the year 1885. The plate is a very artistic one, beautifully printed on thick paper of a suitable size for handsome framing. The subject, a little dimpled Love, adorned with nothing but his baby ohartns, ,is lying on a soft grassy couch, fast asleep among the wild flowers, his round, white limbs approaching the cool nmbragoofa pond of water-lillies. Cue little chubby hand rests lightly on his unstrung bow, which is lying under hint, while the other hand is softly pressed upon his cheek, the plump fingers threading the wavy masses of his floating hair. Under the right arm and shoulder one little dovray wing is snugly tucked away, while the other peeps up from the back with pretty suggestiveness. Overhead are drooping, shadowy boughs covered with rich foliage, and the background reveals a deep perspective of cool forest shade. The picture is one of striking simplicity, yet admirable composition, and ' the figure of the “Sleeping Love” himself with drcoping eyelids and softly parted lips that offset the rounded beauty of babyhood, is one of the prettiest you could well conceive of. Messrs. 1. H. Haulenbeek A Co., proprietors of Godey’s Lady’s Book, have produced this charming picture most successfully. It is much admired by some of the most fastidious connoi sseurs. COBBESPOEBEXCE. Fawns Sarvaat. StTRYAirr Ikd. Nov. 7th, 1881. Editor Democrat : Two years ago when IE started up Salt river I wrote a few lines to your vauable paper, telling you that it was very hard to | make the trip with a mi red crowd. But a few of us had to take the medicine, and as you will recollect, I said in my letter then | when I returned and told the Democracy what a lonely and distressing journey it was on a few Democrats with so many Republicans on board that: two years hence the Democracy would make up tire entire crew of Republicans. Last Tuesday was the day set to make up tire crew, and 1 was anxious to know who w as selected for the voyage. I visited the landing at the mouth of Salt river this morning aud I was rejoiced to not find any Democrat preparing for the journey. But as the boat launched out on the briny water, I hallowed and inquired who was on board. The Captaiin answered, “Blaine, Calkins, and all the big-bugs were in the cabin. Then I asked if any person was there from Pike county. The answer was, “yes.” Then I was anxious to know them. I sti-irred them up, and behold!‘I find Wilson, the Judge; Agee, tiarRepresentative; Thomas, Sheriff; Armstrong, Treasurer; West, the Recorder, refused to go because he was not a resident of Pike, hi« home being in Warrick. Therefore, they appointed a Recorder and launched their boat with a full set of Republican officers. Good-by, brother Republicans; steer straight. It is a lonesome road, for I went alone, without the promise of company being sent in the future from my political party. You gentlemen are all Republicans; and look out! two years from this time we will send you another boat load of recruits. Good-by, boys; it is bad medicine, but the doctor said take it. Yours, William F. Brock:.
