The citizens of Rock Greek have taken
rather important step, the object of
which is a supply of pure water. A res
ervoir has been sunk nearly in the center
of the space at the Corners, some l2 it. in
diameter, and or 10 ft in depth, and
pipes are TO be laid from springs IN the
rear of the Methodist church lot, where
an abundant supply is found, and admit
ting of fall of some 15 or 20 it. The
cost of the work is only about $5OO-a
very small consideration in view of the
important advantages to follow the out
lay.
Two brick stores are under way, not
withstanding the lugubrious talk about
hard times. V. D. Latimer, the hard
ware merchant, is building one, on the
lot adjoining the old corner store OF Fred
Harrington, ana between that aud the
one built a short time since by H R. Lqi-
inner and Edwin Xennah, has the founda-
tons up for another adjoining the corner
brick block, on the south. Another i'm
provement is the extension of the street
west, on which Stebbins s. Buffers car
riage shop stands, and two residences of
fair proportions are already in the course
of erection.
Dolph has so far completed his build
ing as to have moved in with his gallery
paraphernalia, where he may be found
ready for business. The building is an
important addition to the business por-
ton of the village, and his gallery is not
surpassed in its adaptation to business
convenience and facility, by any 10 til e
region. Dolph's evolutions, though not
unfrequent, always land him upon his
feet, and he both merits and achieves
success.
Some of our friends t here feel little
disappointment that their very wort by
fellow citizen, A. B. Watkins was not
successful candida te before the conven
ton for Senator, and think that Ashtabu-
la did not meet their expectations. Their
are ways that are dark and tricks that
vain, besides which there are whims and
caprices which sometimes overtake con-
ventions, and things are not always what
they seem, or should be. This is shown
by the choice OF DIR. Burrows, by acclama-
ton. No one in the Ashtabula delega-
tion. at least, expected the nomination of
man from this county, under hardly
any circumstances.
Mr.. Watkins enjoys the high respect OF
every man of the delegation from this
place. and not one of them, and few in
deed, of our citizens but that would
cheerfully support him for the Office to
which he was announced to the conven-
ton. Burrows nomination was carried
by sort Of coup de etc. and no one was
allowed chance to think of any other
candidate 1t was splendid piece Of
generalship, at which there was no little
goo natured surprise when all was over.

The Remocratic RaIIH.


The Democracy had a sort of Band
Convention here on Saturday afternoon.
No less than three bands enlivened the
occasion with their music, and drew to
gether quite an sudience-say some three
or four hundred each. These bands came
from aeneVa, Kingsville, and our own
AshtabHla band. Such o formidable ar
ray of music as an escort Of the speak
ers, with Uncle Levi and our handsome
young friend, Bill Hubbard, as bench
men, made a somewhat frightful amount
Of head, which bore about the same pro-
portion to the attenuated and harmless
looking tail of the prOeession-made up
of q comparatively small number of strag-
Cling Democrats-as we sometimes see
in representations of fabulous animals
with brief and soaley narrative, and a
pFodigous, oRrRiveFous head. Notwith-
standing the GOODNESS Of the temperature,
the CONVENTION went to the park. The
bands opened the exercises, and gave all
an abundant opportunity TO admire their
playing. This through, Uncle Levi call
ed for the nomination of q chairman, and
our handsome young friend. with becon-
ing eaFneslness and energy of manner,
nominated Dan Sherman, which was
carried and the sage of Saybrook, after
excusing himself from making an initia.
tory speech and expressing his gratitude
for the honor conferred. introduced the
chief speaker OF the occasion-Senator
Thurman.
The Senator began rather low, telling
his listeners of his long pent.up wish to
speak TO them, and the qualification real
ized at the opportunity now to do so. By
this time, all ears were open and expecta
tion on the tension TO hear him launcl
off into the fresh issues of the day. Blu

the question was ssked-"How did you
like the Senator" The almost invaria-
bic answer was-"Very much disappoint-
ed. He never said word about the f.
nances." Thus the reaction in favor of
honest money for ALL is obvious as
natural consequence The rebuke from
the New York State Democracy is enough

A pleasant ride of twenty miles north
from the valley of the Arkansas brought
US TO the town of King City, in which
township are located many from Ashta-
bula county, and glance at these peo'
pie and this grand farming country, l
thought might be of interest to the read
ers OF the Telegraph.
Before coming to Kansas, l confess to
not being prepossessed in her favor
Grasshoppers and droughts, were ass oci-
ated with the name, and the Investment
in King City town shares had not proved
a success, financially. Unseen forces
prevented the town from being what its
founders believed 1t would be. Their
heads, at least were level in making the
location, which is a beautiful lace for
town, and the country around is one
magnificent farming country, and such
crops as this part of Kansas has this year
been favored with, it seems, could not be
excelled.
