Our friend across the way don't like our
jokes it seems. He quotes some of the
names we used last week and by inuncn-

tim" neighbor! The "epithets" as you
call them were all properly applied and
the one which we suspect you take the
most exception to-was doubly SO. Make

give you the benefit Of a column defining
our position towards you. Cheese it

We noticed an article in the Cedar
Rapids Daily Republican Of date August
9Th, ~, wherein it was claimed that the
town of Traer had shipped during the
past year 464, 900 bushels Of grain. James
Macphail grain dealer of Traer was given
as the author of the report. We are will
ing to conccde, and glad to know Of the
prosperity Of any town in Tama County,
but this is spreading it on entirely too
thick. We venture to stay that about one
half Of the number Of bushels given will
be nearer the amount than otherwise.

The Independent seemingly gloats over
the fact, that we paid SO much attention
to them, and the Tama Press last week,
and thinks we ''were hard pushed for
items" Grant that we did pay them our
respects literally, that does not prove that
we did not have plenty of local matter
with which to fill our columns The truth
is that we always have surplus of local
items each week over and above what we
have room for in the paper. When the
editors of those papers become trouble
some on our hands we propose to let them
hear from us at the risk of the appearance
that we are "hard pushed for items" We
acknowledge frankly that under ordinary
circumstances we would be very hard
pushed indeed to notice our bantling
neighbors. But, when they will continue
throwing their filth into our door yard,
load after load, until we can't stand it any
longer, we simply shovel it back to them,
first sprinkling it profusely with chloride
Of lime to act as disinfectant SO that we
can handle it without sickening our
readers or ourselves. Give us rest.

Judge Struble received letter last Sat-
urday, in the noon mail, from a resident
of Chelsea, to the effect that certain par
ties in that town were furnishing band
Of Musquakies who were camped near by,
with whiskey. The letter also stated that
fears were entertained by some of the citi-
zens at, and near Chelsea, that the Indians
would do some act of violence. The
Judge laid the matter before Ed. How
bert the son of the Indian Agent, who
makes his headquarters at Toledo. How
bert procured the assistance of Deputy
Sheriff Bartlett andWm. H. Stivers, Coun-
ty Attorney, and drove down to Chelsea
to look into the affair. An individual who
gave his name as Lewis Osgood was by
them arrested on their arrival. 1t is
claimed by number of the citizens that
he has been stopping with the Indians for
several days, and has been furnishing
them with whiskey during that time. He
had . preliminary hearing before Fred
Roach Esq, and was by him held to an
swer to the Grand Jury Of the September
term of Tama District Court, on bail of
$500 90. He failed to give the bail, and
was lodged in the Hotel de Austin that
night for safe keeping. A. Edgar, sa-
loon keeper at Chelsea was also arrested,
and brought before the Squire on the
direct charge Of selling liquors to the In
dams. He was held to answer in pre-
liminary examination on Wednesday of
the present week. II the charges made
against these parties are true. they should
suffer the penalty.

that we force anything bordering upon
the vulgar to the notice Of our readers.
We regret that we have been compelled
to do it, but the exigencies Of the case
seemed to demand that we should give
them the benfit Of line or two 1t is
possible that we may notice some Of their
editorial lies in our next issue.

News from Buffalo county, Nebraska,
is not very flattering for some of the
settlers who went there from Tama Coun-
ty We are told that John Lux, George
Meisncr, Casper Meisner and w. J. Car
son have lost their entire corn corp from
the inroads of the grasshoppers, c. s.
Bailey has lost portion Of his corn corp.
Many of the farmers in that section Of
country were compelled to cut their
wheat and oats to save it while it was yet
green In addition to the loss of crops,
Mr.. Carson recently lost his barn, and all
OF his farming implements by fire. The
estimated damage is $4,000. 1t is said,
that in the grasshopper region, people
have been forced to take their green paper
window blinds down to save them from
the pests, SO greedy are they for anything
of green shade or tint. We hear it re-
ported that quite number of persons who
emigrated to Nebraska from our county
are about to return to Toledo, and some
Of them are now en- route overland.

preach at the Free Will Baptist Church,
where the United Brethren Society are

was conclusive of the fact that the Rev
gentleman possesses mind correspond
ing in power and size to his admirable
physical constitution. His evening dis
course was quite different in its character
and aim, but was well suited to the occa-
sion. The Presidents friends at Toledo
