In case wherein cattle-drOvers have
an especial interest. 1t seems that
one Lockwood, while travelling over
the New York Central railroad on a
drover's pass, received severe injuries
during an absence from the caboose,
which he left for the purpose of caring
for his cattle. He sued the road for
damages and gained verdict i'm
the court below. The case was appeal
ed to the Supreme Court, which yes
terday confirmed the decision of the
District Court, sustaining the rulings
that the contract made by the defend
ant and the pass issued to him were no
impediments In the way of recovering
II he was not guilty Of neglect of ordi-
nary care, and prudence which contrib

no such negligence on his. part

manner stated as would debar recov-

IT Is said there are some independent
candidates in this county besides those
announced in this paper. So far rs
Democrats are concerned, we hope
this Is not so. Let US oil stand in solid
phalanx, without division or heart
burnings until Radicalism is over
thrown in our long misgoverned State.
When that shall have been accom-
plished our rights as freemen will not
be endangered if men do occasionally
run rs independents. Our convictions
are too deep to let even the strongest
friendship cause us to vote against any
Of our selected standard-bearers. Just
now, brethren, If ever, we may exclaim,
Omitted we stand; divided we fall.

The Legislature is the same way
which insurcs the defeat of that hater
of the South, Carpenter, for re-elec-
ton to the United States Senate. The
Radicals insist that Democracy Is dead.
Well, we want to die some more in
this same way. If dead, Democracy
can carry Ohio, Wisconsin, Oregon,

States into duck fits, what we will DO
In the next great awakening of the

A fearful combat with monstrous rep
tile took place in Peoria recently, according
to a local paper, which says: "A rural
gentleman, visiting friend in the Third
ward, found in the back yard. after dusk
an immense snake lying in the grass. He
procured an axe, and when he had chopped
the reptile into about dozen pieces, he
discovered it to be a garden hose which
had not properly hung up in the coal
shed"
The Harper House was very crowded
last night. In addition to its regular
boarders and the usual travelling custom
l50excursionists, ladies and gentlemen, were
taken care of, lodged and fed, with no wore

Maj. Moulton's ingenuity not a little to pu

spacious halls on every floor, and every
body slept well.

A good many heads and hands, mae
and female, are very busy, now, preparing
something for the fair. A good manr
more are doing nothing. except making up
their minds to go and see what on exhi-
bitlon. We hope all the men, women and
children will go to work, noU, and get
something ready for exhibition, and hep
make the fair a great success The officers,
directors, committees, and their friends,
are busy, but this isn't enough; there
should be universal interest taken in the
matter by all, Two weeks from Tuesday
the fair opens, and there is no time to lose.
A good many attractions are secured, hut
more are wanted This is probably the
turning point in regard to county fairs-h
this proves a success the future will be IL
right if failure, then the reverse. Itis
a county institution in which all should
take pride, from Cordova to Drury.

Who Paw the Bills

We have been asked how the bills for
the entertainment of our visitors from Nc
Lean county are to be paid. We presume
from what we hear that they are to DC
paid out of the city and county treasury
Supervisors Grenel, Bowles, and Others
were in favor of putting their hands ID
their own pockets instead OF the people
treasury. but the majority were the other
way. arguing that the supervisors and city
officials who visited Bloomington and Nor
NAL last fall were very handsomely treated
there, and not permitted to pay anything
while there and that the excursionlsts were
coming on the invitation of our city oflcials
and they must be handsomely treated :
that when our officials were there they
were entertained as the representatives OF
our people, and that our invited guests
should be similarly treated by our ofhciais
and citizens when here. That was the ar
gument of those who proposed to run their
hand into the peoples cash box and take
out the peoples money to pay Tor theli
spree.
The argument is not Il good one, MOI
does il state the ease as it is. Our super
visors. and the city officials of our corpo
rate towns. who visited Mclean county
did so on the invitation of Maj. j. Nj

Tribute to the Good Qualities of Coal Valley
Citizens.

Mr. Editor of The Argus:
Notwithstanding the vigilance of our
efficient constable, Mr. John VI. Bowen,
who. every evening after his days work,
takes his rounds of the village TO see that
all the BOYS shoots their marbles and flies
their kites according TO Hoyle, and that all
domestic animals, even the flies after their
DAYS revel. is settled for the night, and all
doors and windows is properly secured with
mosquito bars there is nothing u dis
tinguish him by from any other citizen il
it WASH for a very formidable hickory
club that he carries around with him. But
on the evening of the 9TH inst as he was
taking his rounds, some wretch, not having
the fear of his Maker before his eyes, stole
the club, and let our worthy NJ. 7. walk
home with head and coat tail down like
one suddenly taken with the horse disease.
y. B.-There is good many who think
/ there is no necessity for him n take on
/ himself more than any other constable
/ done in G. Y. here before 1t may be all
well enough. but, for my own part, | will
say for Coal Valley, that i represented by

OF course they drink their beer aud EMO,
them selves until some gets glorlou
funny, and that about all the fault
they We got. And | will say for the boys
, or mule drivers as they are called, wher,
there Is so many of them, | never saw les
mischief or less vice. Of course they ca
all swear-but why wonder? For proba
