In the matter Of the real status OF the "coun-

explanation seemed TO be misunderstood by
some. The effect OF the order of the Supreme
Court was just this: It leaves the Offices in the
Occidental block, where tie County Commits
sioners had placed them. The Court did net
deny Judge Campbell's original Jurisdiction.
but sustained him in dissolfing the injunction,
the county Offices win therefore remain where
they are, unless removed by the Commission
ers. As to the contempt matter, the Su
preme Court denied the habeas coyPas, leaving
that matter just where ii stood before, all OF
which we hope now is perfectly plain. We
would like TO add just one word. and that's IN
view of the good times coming, and for the
sake Of tie well being Of our young city, let
all local hos,iiiiies cease and in its place let
harmony, good viii and pleasantness prevail.

Now comes Commissioner j. b. York with
his experience upon tie subject Of ''rye-pas-
ture,'' which we have been discussing through
these columns. He sowed down one-haif OF
twenty acre lot in rye, leaving the other hall
of the field unbroken prairie. Cattle have
run on it every day since it came up, in ad,Ii-
ton to forty head of hogs, in spite Of all which
the rye grew and went to head at the regular
time. The hogs he says are fat. Ii is his
opinion that rye viii grow upon the prairie
sod, as a lot came up and matured where he
had been feeding that grain to some cattle.
He intends to burn OF five acres Of grass this
fall and harrow it in with rye, convinced as he
is that it win make good winter pasture.
