thousand dollars or Whereabouts in Cash
to Sam. S. Haislett and DR.. j. l. Taylor.
The last issue contains the Farewell Ad-
dress Of the deceased editor, and we regret
to see rather a scolding goodbye. We
think JOHN is one Of .the best Of writer's /;
one of the most genial of men, and it will
not be long before he will re-enlist in q
line Of business for which he is so well fit
ted. Good luck, old chum We expect
to see bully paper from Sam. and Doc
1t is to be run independent, neutral, or
don't-cure-a-cuss-a-tive provided it suits
the interests of Allamakee County gener-
ally. For the next few years. it will be
found that a radical course will not pay,
and from the present handwriting on the
wall, it will be a number Of years before
foolishness will be so we'll rewarded as it
has been in the past six. We congratu-
late our neighbors on the wisdom of their
acknowledgements v.t
Mr.. Bass shows us letter from Elmen-
dorf, now in Chicago, under treatment for
throat and lung disease the letter gives
promise of improving health and return
to the battalion of friends who will greet
him in McGregor, his place Of business.
......Thad. Stevens, in allusion to military
commissions for trial of parties, says ]
told Bingham, the Judge Advocate, that
the whole proceeding was unconstitutional
murder. This was in reference
to the hanging of Mrs. Surratt, ct al. The
Supreme Court has decided that the trial
was illegal, but that does not bring the
victims to life CO.. Forney in his Chroni-
Gle, says the Court is guilty of treason
The doctors of the RAIDS. are disagreeing
beautifully. Rev. Mr.. Jordan is perma-
nently located at Metamora, Ill. In writ
ing us he asks to be remembered to his
friends. There are so many of them here
that we save time by this public notice.
......Evans & Co. are making everybody
happy by selling military clothing at rates
away below their cost ......H. Ruble had
his big raising st North McGregor, on
Tuesday Of last week. We had an invita-
ton, but Thunder how can we leave the
Office on Tuesday? Before this, and we
now repeat it, we have said Tuesday is our
publication or 'washing-day" and it wo'd
,e impossible to attend our own funeral.

,red IS inches across and % inches deep
lis weight was over 500 pounds. Caleb
presents us with brick of

Mason City, Iowa. 1t burns well and con-
idering the scarcity of timber out there,
he discovery is of immense value to that
'egion. -. Gen. Butler favors us with his
Currency letter, addressed to the Boston
Advertiser. There are signs of returning
.eason in the arguments of the old defend

in condemning the hangers of
