We regret exceedingly that in our report
Of the Dedication at Montour last week
we omitted to mention the name Of the
popular pastor, Rev A. G. Hickey. A
great deal of praise is due him for the
manner and success in which he worked
up this enterprise and carried it through
to its termination He is well liked by
his church and congregation, and is doing
good work in that town and vicinity
We did not notice the omission Of his
name last week till part Of our edition
was printed, and it was then too late to
make the correction.

that he wouldn't desire to hurt our fee

Last Saturday evening six of our young
bloods procured team at the Star Livery
and betook themselves to the waters OF
the Iowa river, south of lama City for
swim. Not having been used to the
waters in that stream, and remaining too
long within its embraces, the effect upon
them was anything but pleasant. 1t caus-
ed more or less nausea at their stomachs,
and it was with difficulty that they were
able 10 drive home However, they finally
made it, but on their arrival it required
an extra effort on the part of most of
them to stand alone with ease, and COM
fort to themselves. They unloaded the
cargo of their vehicle, and most of them
unloaded their stomachs in manner not
strictly according to the usual mode. We
should Judge that the whole party were
quite sick. After wandering around town
for some time, making the night hideous
with their yells and curses, and arousing
the whole neighborhood, in their midnight
revel. They sought their rest in peace
full sleep, on the floor of the Star Livery
until morning.
We know Of an individual who was
pulled" before the Mayor during the
present week, and fined five dollars, for
being found sick and complaining of the
same kind of poison that Frustrated these
boys. Now then, while we uphold no
party in being found thus, sick and dis
orderly, we wish to see simple justice
melted out to all alike. Let US treat our
own "fast bloods" in their misfortunes, in
the same manner that we do strangers.
