THURSDAY MORNING. NOV. 15, 1866.
&2pTly; County Board of Supervisors
are in session. Their proceedings will ap
pear in our next issue.
Bsf"Thc Board of Trustees of the vil
lage of Dodgevillc will meet on Monday
evening next at 7 o’clock.
Jgplf one of our subscribers or “any
other man” will bring us some wood, we
will pay the full price for it, and thank
him besides. It is not conducive to honesty
to be out of wood in very cold weather.
Ve are pained to hear of the death
on the sth instant, of the wife of Jas. G.
Knight, editor of the Darlington Democrat.
Although not personally acquainted with
Mrs. Knight, we have often heard of her
as a very estimable lady, a devoted wife,
and kind mother.
|3|r’Notwithstanding the herculean ef
forts of the opposition, the circulation of
all manner of false and foolish reports, and
the universal assertion among the Cops.,
that Maj. Geo. 11. Otis would hardly get a
majority in Dodgevillc, he received 380 of
523 votes, a majority of 249, and actually
ran ahead of his ticket twenty votes.
society of Good Templars in
our village is reported in a very flourishing
condition. Seventeen persons were initia
ted at the last regular meeting, and others
are now in waiting. The socictj” lias been
established in this place about eight years
and has been productive of much good.
Let the good work go bravely on.
KgrJ. V. Rogers announces by adver
tisement which will be found in this issue,
that he has lately received additions to his
stock of groceries and provisions. As
friend Rogers deals exclusively in family
groceries and provisions, he may naturally
be expected to have a better assortment
than the generality of stores. Give him a
call.
fUP’Thc Janesville Gazette gets off a
very good article on the late elections
headed, “A Terrible Rattle fought Nov. 6,
Great Slaughter of the Enemy !” The for
ces of twelve Stales engaged ! Among the
wounded wo find Col. Noah 11. Virgin of
Grant county; shot through the head, but
there being no brains in the way, not
much harm was done. The hole was
plugged up with a Cobh, and he is in a
fa ir way to recover.
(yAs this is the time of year fores
trays. persons should take notice and ad
vertise everything that unlawfully enters
their enclosure. There is a statutory law
that compels the advertisement of cs.
trays. Besides depriving the personjtaking
the animal up of all compensation for
keeping it, it also makes him liable to
pay damages to the owner for the time and
expense of searching for ear 'n al.
|3f"The Washington Ji rpublican which
is the pet organ of President Johnson and
Gov. Randall, in an article on the late
elections, makes the following true and
significant remark which we respectfully
commend to our Democratic friends in
this county :
The Democratic party, as such, has dug
its and we advise its leaders to
hur} r the remains forever, and start anew
with legitimate material.
JcgT’The oyster supper given on Thurs
day evening last by the Orphan’s Aid So
ciety, of this village was quite a success,
and although it was not patronized as ex
tensively as suppers in this place usually
arc, enough were in attendance to make
quite a substantial addition to the funds
of the society. The oysters were excellent
and as they were the first of the season,
in this part, they were highly relished by
those in attendance. The receipts of the
evening were $72,75.
Improvements. —We are happy to be
able to state that there has been more im
provements made in our village during the
last summer and fall than has been made
in any five years previous, since Dodge
ville has been in existence. Between six
and seven thousand dollars have been spent
in building sidewalks and improving and
grading the streets alone. Quite a number
of good buildings have been erected—
stores and dwelling houses—fences have
been built, houses painted, and an im
mense amount of work and money expend
ed in improving and beautifying our nat
urally handsome village.
JSp’We are requested to announce that
the eminent Rev. Samuel Roberts, late of
Lanbryn, Mair, wjll preach in the Con
gregational church in the village of Arena,
on Thursday evening, Nov. 15th. At
Ridgeway at 2 o'clock on Saturday after
noon, Nov. 17th. He will preach in W elsh
at the Welsh church near Davis’Mill at
10 o'clock or. Sabbath morning tbe 18th
inst. Be will also preach in English at
the Division street Congregational church
in Dodgeville, at 2 o’clock, and in Welsh
at 7 o'clock I'm the evening of the same
day.
Mr. Roberts is a very eminent minister,
and the mention of his name is all that is
accessary to secure a good audience.
DODGEYILLE, VIS., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1866.
lowa County Bonds.
Elsewhere in this issue will be found a
call issued by the County Board of Super
visors, which is now in session, addressed
tc the chairmen of the various town boards
in the County, imviting the town boards
together with other influential business
men, to meet them at Dodgevillc, on Tucs
dajq November 27th, for the purpose ot
consulting on the County Bonds.
The County Boards. have fought these
Bonds for nearly ten years, suits have
been carried to the highest Courts in the
United States, and they have decided that
the Bonds are valid and must be paid.—
Mandamuses and other legal papers have
been served on the Board, requiring them
to obey the demands of the Courts and
levy a tax to pay these Bonds; these de
mands have up to this time been disobey
ed, but the people cun not expect to always
stave off these Bonds, and the time is rap
idly approaching when they must be prid.
Various plans have been proposed, some
of which are thought to be quiet practicable
by which these Bonds may be paid. The
object of this proposed is there
fore to adopt the best plan whereby the
indebtedness of the County may be liqui
dated, and by which the whole County
may be benefitted, and the people suffer as
little as possible. This is a matter in which
every tax payer is deeply interested, and
should not now be neglected.
As the citizens of Dodgevillc will keep
open house during that and the following
day, the bills being paid by voluntary sub
scription, we hope to see every part of the
Coiyity fully and ably represented.
Literary Society.
At a meeting of the citizens of Dodgc
villc, held at Morris’ Hall on Wednesday

On motion, L. M. Strong was chosen

lage, and Edmund Edyvean, J. 11. Penber
thy and Jos. Rowe for the northern por
tion.
On motion, a committee of three was ap
pointed to make an estimate of the amount
required to start the society in good shape,
consisting of John Bonner, Jos. Bennetts,

On motion, a committee of three was

a suitable room for holding meetings of the
Society.
On motion, the meeting effected a tem
porary organization by electing Wm. Ben
dy chairman, and Orville Strong secretary.
On motion, Resolved, that the proceed
ings of this meeting be published in the
Dodgeville Chronicle , and that the editor
be requested to issue a spirit-stirring ap
peal to the j-citizens in behalf of the good
cause.
On motion, the meeting adjourned to
meet on Wednesday evening the 21st inst.

permanent organization.

Majorities.
According to the official canvass, which
we publish elsewhere in this issue, it will
be seen that the following are the majorities
received by the various candidates in this
county ;
Cobb 332, Whitman 367, Wigham 402,
Vivian 3G5, Coates 300, Otis 333, Ashley
852, Wilson 302, Adams 282, Thomas £OB,
Frost 70, Green 235. Rewey 202, Lcvake
88.
Only one Democrat was elected in the
county, O. F. Leuake, for supervisor in the
third district, ho having no opposition in
his own town, Mr. Joiner, the Republican
nominee, positively refusing to serve r.rd
having the tickets printed without his
name on. The vote cast at this election
being the largest for a number of years,
may be set down as the best expression of
the sentiment of the people of the County
which it is possible to get.
gggpThe Salt Lake Vedette of tho Sd
has the following in pencil on its margin:
“Things begin to look bilious; a squad of
soldiers are now guarding our office. 7 ' —
This is signed by Goldrick. The Mermens
arc committing all sorts of outrages on the
Gentiles in every direction, rioting at their
own sweet wills. A few days ago they
caught the heavy editor of the Vedette and
made him promise to leave town within a
specified time. He says they forced him
to give the promise, and that therefore he
shall not keep it. He says further on tho
subject:
“When a crowd of ten or twelve armed
men glide from an alley at the dead hour
of midnight, and crawling up behind seize
us, we do not stand accountable for what
is done, but if any of the cowardly dogs
who assaulted us last Monday night wish
an}' satisfaction for what has appeared in
the Ved-etie they can obtain it by meeting
us singly by day light at any time, place,
or in any manner that suits them.”
