God pity* the taxpayer should the time ever come when all who ask for it should get an office. It is easier to get a man to see his interest than it is to get him. to sufficiently overcome his prejudice to vote his interest. _ Frank It. Bti.nKRUACK, so far, has nooppaiiion for Auditor. He iseniinently well qualified, and would make a good officer._*_ The woods full of candidates, Republicans and Democrats—Republicans aud Democrats are sanguine. Do not be too certain. Ai.l hands up for the men who favor the masses. Let labor aud capital each know its place, and neither impose unjustly upon the other. In the rush tor office, it is well enough not to forget that the court house ring said that 1400.00 Were used in painting the poor asylum^ Then, as you coine to town, just view those buildings. Who put any paint at all on those buildings? The F. M. li. A. who have, at least in' this county, been opposed by the Republican party, are still alive, well, and healthy, and seem to assert their lights regardless of who may not be pleased. It is a healthy sigh, when tanners and other laborers begin to study their own interests. The more of thi)r*the- belter. An editor that never makes an enemy is never worth the paper he wiites on. It waa lilts putting of things up in their true light that caused a good many citizens to fall out with the editor of the Democrat, and which caused his political enemies to try to elect nine Republican trustees in this county. Ot the nine, they clectedjdlbuVseven. In Indiana .the Democrats hare more trnstees than they have had since 1882, aud the Republicans have fewer. They stand : Democrats, 589; Republicans, 381 ,* Independents, 24. The F. M. B. A's, and all except Democrats and Republicans are counted with the Independents. Of course the F. U. B. A’s are mostly in fcvor of the Democrats. We like it first-rate, llow do you like it?_ We have been gravely asked why, in this tariff ridden country, immigration is still so great. With equal propriety the same sage might have naked why so many people leave the highly protected eastern states aud go to the western states that are not blessed with this protection. Ilea go to newer countries because the land is not so thoroughly monopolised. The land queHlion is the question fiat settles the immigration ques^ tion. Ask us something hard.

Axytiiixu that reduces the Republican vote is at once heralded to the world a* a great Democratic victory; Third party prohibitionists and mcinIhsis ot the F. 11. B. A. should paste this item in their hats for future retereuoe.—Oakland Enterprise. Just so; who ever saw a Hepubliran paper that did not work, directly or indirectly, against the farmer, ee|>ecia)ly when the fat <ner wanted to claim his ritfhs ? The F. M. B. A. members hare as good a right to look after their own interest as anyone else; and, as to the Frohibltionists, their rights are as much their own as anybody’s else._ The Lancaster Times says: No well-bred lady or gentleman will tattle. It requires a person of foul ideas to gossip about the indiscretions of a neighbor. The tattler has fewer friends than even (he lowest elements ef society. The tattlei is a liar in nine cases out of ten and is generally guilty of more indiscretion than arc those they talk about. The most contemptible person in tVe world is the erie who it* conliitnally nosing around |o find a bit of gossip to roll under his tongue. Tattling should be a just eawse for divorce ana a crime punishable by sixty days in the County jail. To every indiscreet act committed there aro ten thousand lies 'told. Avoid the tattler and if the tattler won’t avoid you. onr advice is to do the next best thing and use the toe of| your sin* to geod advantage. {

Congressman Pimlti Jcogi W. F. pAKRrrr, member1 of Congress from this congressional district, si* in town Friday. He gave us k history of the contest between Mr. F. B. Posey and himself. From the first, he says he was not, at any time, of opinion that It* would lose his seal; that when the committee voted oil the merits of the case, the vote was unanimous, and even the members of the committee that were strong Republican* congratulated him on the just rights which he evidently had to his seat in congress; that bis case was so plain, and the evidence in his favor was so well founded that the case was not made a partisau question when it came to be voted on by the House. He is well pleased with the action taken by the committeo in his case, and still lias faith that true merits vigilantly attended will yet win, political corruption to

the contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Posey lias been home (or some time, and, with all the pomp with which he promised it, did not, during the time he was at Washington, avail himself, to the fullest, of the opportunities he realy had to do something for the soldier. Mr. Parrett gave us do information on Mr. Posey’s record in this respect, but on being questioned spoke most encouragingly of the situation as being in favor of the soldier, lie also says the farmers and consumers and laborers who have been clamoring for tariff reform are, without a present doubt, going to bo disappointed, for the present tariff bill which a majority of the Republicans favor, is a bill that will impose on the consumer a higher tax than the one he already pays. This is an uufortuuate condition, but it has long been the tendency in this country, as was the tendency in each country in the world’s history every time oppressions and wrongs have destroyed a government. There is perhaps tio help for it, except in a matter of education. When the people become educated to realize their own condition, and to rise above partisan prejudice, unnecessary taxation will be unknown to him who pays a tax either direct or mdireot. As Mr. Parrett believes, with the mass of Democrats, in relieving the people of their burdens under any and all circumstances, we are confident that his retention in coi$ gress is a good thing for the people, though the majority of congressmen in both houses is Republican. A minority in the right, though it canuot legislate, can sometimes prerent the enormity of an evil that may be threatened by these interested irrtlie protection of the rich as against the tired muscles that produce the wealth ot the country. Labor Asks But Little. f ' ' Sixty-five billions of dollars is now ihe estimated wealth of the United States. This represents a sum equal to the wealth ot the Christian world 011c hundred years ago. Over twenty billions of this wealth has been added to our natural resources during the last4 ten years. This is a sum equal to the wealth of Eurppo and America two hundred years ago. It represents a greater material progress than the race had attained in the vear 1700, A. D. In other words, Europe and America havo within (lie last twentyfive years accumulated a volume of wealtli that exceeds alt the prior savings of the human race. Tins doubling of our uational wealth within the last tweuty rears more than doubles for the capitalists their proportion of luxurious ease. This isa fair index for the United States of the gifts of materia) to the rich. Wo contend, than, that while the rich havo realized this marvelous increase of wealth, undreamedof in the past, the laboring classes have a just claim to an equitable share in the benefits of the general progress. > ' To match this progress of the wealthy few the laborers demand the reduction of the hours of their toil. Within twenty years the rich havo doubled their chance for leisure, while labor only demands a reduction of oiie-flfth in (lie hours of toil a« thev quite generally established in 187fy)g^ law and custom in the Uuited States. Within these twenty years the capitalists have enjoyed a greater progress than was realized for their class fur the prece.iing century Labor well understands its rights to as much improvement in its conditions and opportunities fnr leisure, as the rich have enjoyed, and yet it demands but twenty per cent—a reduction ot one-fifth in its hours ot toil.

A Matter of Importance. A trustee occupies otic of the most important offices. He has absolute control of a large amount of the people’s taxes, and is the overseer of its expenditures. He is responsible.for the conditions of onr schools and school houses, and of the conditions of our roads. These are not all his duties, but they are the main enea. The citizen’s are inter* ested directy and at the present time in that part of a trustee’s duty pertaining to tiie highways. More particularly is this true because of the bad conditions of the roads produced by tbe recent opeu Winter. The softness of the ground and continued travel during the last six or seven month’s, have made the worst roads this country has ever had. This will necessitate a great amount of road working which will impose upon the people an additional amount of labor. One of Site reasons why our roads arc not in better condition is the disadvantage at which the supervisors work. Few supervisor* have anything better to work with than shovels add the ordinary one-horse and two-homo road sersper*. We are told that, with a hundred dollar rood grader, six men can dd more work t had can be done with six times the force in the ordinary way. If this be true (and we do not doubt thatjl is), it would pay each township to invest

iu a few grader*. The improved conditions of the road*, and the time saved to the road worker* would teem to justify the investment. Of course ecouemy should be considered^ but it is not always that ecsnemy Is best practiced by refusing to make a profitable investment; and, whether an investment of a few road graders would be good ecouemy, would depend upon whether they would be cared for after once purchased. Some trustees: practice poor ecouemy by letting their property rot in the weather for lack of shelter and proper repairing. A trustee should see to it tliat taxation is not high, that every dollar is spent to the best advantage, and that the whole people get the benefit of all public service. At the present time in Pike county there is nothing that demands so much attention as the public highways. We do uot desire to dictate to anyone, but we would be glad, if possible, to call the attention of the public to this important matter.

F. II. Wood announces himself a»a candidate for State Senator in another colum. Rev. Wood Is well known in Tike county and therefore needs no introducing, lie is one of^hose plain spoken preachers who Jjfegluot ashamed of their politics. M^|f)Od may not be nominated, though there can be no reason why he should jot be. lie, like the other candidates, will be satisfied with any one whom the nominating convention will choose. We feel safe in sayiug this, because of two reasons: first, the candidates all desire the success of good government; secondly, they are men who do not become meanly disgruntled over triv ial affairs. The boys are makinss-ou honorable race, as becomes them. This is as it should.be. PETERSBURG PUBLICjSCHOOLS. Frem thefReportjof the^PabliclSchools for the Month finding April. 25, |1«#0. HIGH SCHOOL.
