DIMINUTIvE.--As short time since
we mentioned the fact that In this
county lives a blooming miss who
weighs one hundred aud fifty, pounds
although only ten years old. Now II Is
ours To state no less remarkable case
upon the other extreme: A lad now
seven years old, son Of Jacob Pifer,
six miles east of this city, has not
grown In height or weight since he
was two years old. He Is bright
healthy child, but Is now only as tall
"a ILLS little sister Of fourteen months
old. We cannot now give his meas
urement definitely, but are assured by
the Assessor, Mr.. Il. X. Woodruff,
who recently interviewed the little
gentleman, that his height does not
exceed twenty-eight inches, and posi-
bly, not twenty-four. We hope to give
his height and weight definitely soon
II there are any other big girls or d.
minutive men In Marion county or any
other Iowa county who can lead these
in giant proportions or Lilliptuian
smallness, we should be glad to hear
from them.

RAILRoAD.--Wel learn that Mr.. NAL
Tory is busily at work upon the esti-
mates of cost OF the contemplated
wooden railroad from Knoxville to
Charlton. and that when they are
completed he will be here to lay them
before the people for their considera-
ton. He contemplates an early visit
to Canada for the purpose of inspect
ing the four or five wooden roads there
In operation. one Of which Is io0
miles I'm length. II may be that he
will deem IL best 10 make this visit be-
fore completing his estimates, in order
10 take advantage OF any Information
he might gather as to the practical
results attained by wooden roads else
where.

Cry FINANCES City Charter
requires the publication Of an annual
exhibit In detail Of the RECEIPTS and ex-
penditures of the city. This provision
has never heretofore been complied
with; but In our columns this week
will be found the required statement.
Every citizen aud taxpayer will be
glad TO note that we have In the
treasury respectable cash balance Of
OF S4s5. 10. and that our assets will
pay all our liabilities, including the
bonds issued for the purchase Of the
cemetery grounds, and leave us bal
ance of$4ll,4S.
This IL an exceedingly creditable
and satisfactory showing, considering
the facts that the city has so recently
purchased, cleared and enclosed TWEEN
ty-acre cemetery tract, and that two or
three years ago our city warrants were
begging a market at % per cent. dis
count. 1t should also be remembered
that the expenditures Of city upon
streets and bridges have been unusu-
ally large, and our highways have been
correspondingly improved, during the
past two years. The present Council
deserves credit for its excellent man
agement Of our City affairs.

The whisky cases, wherein State OF

charged with keeping and selling in

were brought to trial last Saturday
before J. II. Templeton, ESD, assisted
by II. Langmore., ESQ, Of OtIey. The
names OF the attorneys we did not

lasted nearly all day, the several cases
were dismissed, and the defendants
demanded the immediate return OF
their goods; the demand was promtly
obeyed. So Johnny came marching

But upon close inspection 1t was

COMMENTS - The communication
Of m. ST." above referred TO, recited
that "intoxicating liquors under the
names Of 'Hostetters,' Pine Apple,
.Wine,' and other bitters," were sold
in Attica, mot naming any person.,
without any license, and that church
going people had been disturbed by
''young men and boys, made drunk
by these same celebrated tonics sold
here" lin Attica.
The Statement Of IN. S." certainly
should not have been made except
upon positive personal knowledge OF
their truth. Whether or not he bad
such knowledge, and can prove his
statements, we cannot know. Our
acquaintance with IN. 81 and Drug
gist, Is such AZ to warrant us In giving
place To their articles in our columns.
They are both responsible men and
we cannot think that either would in
tentionally make false statement, or
do injustice to another; but we find
Them differing materially in their AS
sertiohs, as good men frequently do !;
and we must give them both credit for
honestly believing what they assert.
Druggist" may know himself inno-
cent of the charge which he supposes
was made against him. IN. s." may
have said more than he could sub
stantiate. 1t is probably better to let
the matter thus rest. A further dis
cussion would be more likely to widen
than I'LL up the breach.

EDITOR Iowa VOTER
Sir In your issue of Feb. Goth, is
an article over the signature OF NJ.
s." in reference to my conduct as a
Druggist. II the true character of the
writer was known to the readers of
the VOTER should pass the article by
unnoticed. 1t is not only libel
against me but against the young men
Of Attica and vicinity. If he wished
to vent his spleen against me he should
have done so. The facts in the case
are: On New Years eve, some Of the
young men became intoxicated upon
liquor from Pells and other poin is,
and were somewhat boisterous and be-
haved badly at matchmaking on the
night before New Year. Save that
occasion there has been no drunken
ness in this place this winter; and no
person has been molested at any time
In either going to or returning from
church. / make the statement with
out any fears OF successful contradic-
ton, that there IL no town In the
county where there Is less drinking or
intoxication than in the town Of Attica.
For the truth Of the above statements
Iappeai to every good citizen ia the
township. In defense Of myself sim
ply have this to say: My accounts are
before the public, and to them / not
only invite the attention Of the grand
jury but the closest scrutiny Of all good
men.
