wheat never looked better in the La Crosse
Valley than it does this spring. The
wheat fields in every direction are matted

in that section will be immense. Within
a radius Of five miles around Sparta over
800 acres of hops have been set out. g.5

"DAMos."-The communication which
we inserted last week, signed Damon" ap-
pears to have created some hard feeling
between one or two of our best citizens.
We would say however, in vindication of
ourself, and the legal gentleman there al
luded to, that the communication was
handed to US, and we, supposing it to lie
all right, and not knowing that it contain
ed personal attack on any one, ordered it
to be put in type, neglecting our usual
perusal This is our excuse Cor digress-
custom of giving all such rticles careful
ing from our usual course, and permitting
the insertion of personal article. We
would say in vindication of the person at.
tackled, that the opinion which was ridi-
culed was the same as given by the coun-
sci of the village, and the same IS the vii
lage board acted upon, therefor the attack
was unjust and uncalled for.

FIRE AT WUIrEwATER.-The Whitewater
Register states the entire loss Of property
by the destruction of Estcrley's Reaper
Factory at $40, 900, with $4,000 insurance.
Not more than $4,000 worth of machinery
was saved. The profits on the seasons
work, which are lost by the fire, would
amount to some $25,0oO. There were
about l3o. .reapers completed, and 10 were
in forward state, which would be finished
besides large number for which the lum-
Der had been got out, and would have been
finished in time for harvest. The loss falls
very heavily on Mr.. Esterley and those in
his employ. 1t is iptimated that he is not
likely to rebuild his works, which the
Register says would be serious blow to
Whitewater, one sixth of whose people are
virtually supported thereby.

The details of the settlement agreed to
between the city council and the Coal Val
ley railroad ought to be perfected as soon as
possible, for the reason that the city would
then stop the interest on some thirty thous.
and dollars of indebtedness-a saving OF
about ten dollars a day. 1t is not necessary
to wait for Mr.. Osborn to return, in order to
get his opinion upon the ordinance. Mr..
Webster, who is associated with Mr.. Osborn
as attorney for the city in the suits, has ex-
amined it and given his opinion that IL is
correct and ought to pass. Mr.. Osborn and
MIR. Webster, also, sometime ago, signed a
report TO the council recommending the
same thing; and the proposition of the rail
road company, its acceptance by the city
council, and the proposed ordinance, have
all been spread before the people, and every
body knows that the ordinance is precisely
according to the terms of agreement, and
the people expect the council to pass it and
complete the details of the trade, and reduce
our Indebtedness and stop interest. There
is no reason why the ordinance should not
pass, at the very next meeting of the coun
ell.
