On. day bn week onr .pedal
reporter finding bto Hon. Judge
Moore, at bit leitur. for » ebort
lime, engaged him in conversation
on the pretidential outlook. The
Judge thought it was » joke and
would not be publiabed, but aa
“•toleu Interview*” are aald to be
the sweetest and abould, therefore,
be the best, we will give it to
our reader*. The following b the
reault of our Interview:
Reporter—What are your view*
whi d. rawer rough on the exodus*
ter, who hiving weathered through
a cold northern? winter, it con-
fronted with starring in the spring.
But abould he succeed* In eking
oat a miserable existence, until be
has secured his patent, what good
will it do himTit cant hold the land,
neither will a Warrantee deed at it,
(the land )sooner or bter will be blown
away. Our advice to those contem-
plating going north b to stay where
you are, let well enough alon*.
During the shower that fell last
Friday evening, a sad accident hap-
pened to a Bohemian renter on Mr.
Farack place, who had only been in
tbe State fooftoen days. In order
to protect himself item the rain he
took shelter between his oxen and it
is supposed stooped down, when the
oxen started to ran, knocking him
down, the point of the plow entering
hb abdomen cutting s gash about
five inches wide, and it it feared se-
riously if not fatally injuriog him in-
ternally. Splintxr

In another column will be found
the view* of Hon. L. W. Moore on
the presidential question. His views
are sound and we believe them to be
io aooord with the view* of a majority
. of our people outside of tbe repub-
lican noks.
The Judge b a deep thinker and a
close observer of the political field;
be bee the goed of hb party at heart
and would do anything which was not
dishonorable to crown with success
the banner of tbe democratic party.
Wi too believe, as says the judge,
that Bayard is the mnu to deteat
Grant, or even Blaine. H
cally, pare and spotleas; no stain
rests upon his escutcheon; no not of
Me public life can be shown to have
been done for polioy's sake. With
Mm principle, troth, right and justice
. have been the governing and moving
powers. Brought up in the old
aebool of democracy, bo stands to-
day by tbe principles of hie party,
•nd nover deviates from what be
"v'\ is right tor the purpose of
pandering to public clamor. Unlike
jKMOe whom we could name but will
not, he refuses to go off after fake
gods, and does not stultify himself
by attempting to prove that because
a wrong has been committed it must
be perpetuated. Belying upon tbe
sober second thought which he knows
most oome to the people ere long,
J. e ai______*_ __ li ..t.
upon the presidential canvass as to
who should be the choice of the
democratic party for president in the
coming campaign?
Judgo Moore—Who should re-
receive the uomination of the demo-
cratic party . will, in my judgment,
depend very much upon the action
of the Chicago convention. If Gen.
Grant is tbe nominee of the republi-
can party, then we will have the
grandest opportunity to defeat that
party that we have ever hod since
the close of tbe war. In my opinion,
Gen. Grant is the easiest man to be
beat that oan be placed in tbe field.
Should Blaine be the nominee of
Be is, polltl-jlbe republican party, he will be very

The race for attorney-general,

with the former decidedly in timdead.

This may be the opinion of the

beer our democratic brethren say,
MoCtoary to the leading man. We
do not think there is a democrat in

one more deserving. True to the
principles of hie party, fearless and
unswerving in performing every duty
