many distinguished guests within her
borders, aud II Is eminently III and
proper that we should make u grand
holiday Of it, and give everybody an
opportunity to enjoy themselves.
We would state, further, that Colonel
G. w. Baylor is the chairman of the
contribution committee for this pre-
cinct, and that 1t Is highly important
that there should be promptness In
supplying the committee with she nee

IT Is source of qualification to be
able to chronicle the fact that there has
been steady increase IN membership
of all Of our various denominations.
Dr. Smith, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, has in very short time built
up large congregation by his energy
and eloquence. The Rev. Mr.. Easter
ling, of the Methodist church, can
point to u goodly harvest from the
years work. Father Martiniere, OF
the Catholic church, has been indefat-
igable in the noble and pious work of
adding to his church, and helping on
the convent. General Gano, of the
Christian church, has been of good
service to his denomination. His elo-
quenee and zeal, like his knightly
courage in war, have made their moral
and religious mark.
The Rev. Mr.. Weaver, of the Baptist,
and the Rev. Mr.. Davenport, of the
Episcopal church, have also added
many souls to their already full flocks.

That its location is u benefit to the pro-

of the property of those who can con-
troll its location, ithad better be mount

AS FAR as we have observed, the i'm
migration into this section, judging by
the number of wagons passing, Is
greater than it was this time last year.
Onetraln of ten wagons passed through
last week alone. The immigrants, as
a class, are farmers, with good wagons
and teams, plenty of children aud q
fiatterlng lack of cur dogs. The ma.
jorlty ofthem are from the southern
states, although there is fair proper.
ton from the west, In taking look
through this county, the increase In
farmers and population is very percep-
tible, and the houses being built are
more comfortable. The cheapness of
lumber has much to do with the quail
ty of the houses being erected and all
ready built.
