times it has ever seon. The small
grain in the vicinity was almost an
entire failure. | hsve BIO en- told by
number of our farmers that their
wheat yielded less than two bushels
TO the acre. The potato crop was at
first very fair one, but of late they
have been rottiug very badly SO that
the crop is now very light. They
are low in the market for the reason
that our merchants do not consider

Our merchants Otto Reinke and

STATE OF WISCONSIN,

Thomas r. Seaton being duly sworn,
says that he is resident of Boscobel,
and is one of the Trustees in the es-
tate of Francis McSpaden in Bank

the article in the Grant County AdUo-
cate, of October 18th, 1876, headed,
Mr.. Hazelton's connection with the
McSpaden case,' and prepared and
signed by G. X. Dean-that deponent
is one of the persons referred TO in
that article by said Dean, as the
competent and reliable source" from
which the facts as stated in that arti-
Gle were obtained that the article as
referred to is wanton misrepresen-
tation of the facts in the McSpaden
case, and this deponent never COM
municated such facts to Mir. Dean,
aud never authorized him to make
such statement, and this deponent
never made any statement TO Mr..
Dean at any time or place that could
be construed in any way as rejecting
upon the professional integrity OF Mr.
Hazelton in the management OF the
McSpaden case.

was to receive such compensation TOR

contrary the composition signed by
the creditors and McSpaden, at that

that the fees and costs of the proceed

out of the assets of the estate; that

Justice to Mr.. Hazeltop, and that
the public may know that deponent

The Campaign at Bloomington.

! Editor Herald We trust here
after we shall never again hear a
citizen OF Bloomington regre;ting
he lives in an interior town for We
question if any railroad village in
our State, has been favored with
greater display Of political talent
during this Presidential campaign.
Surely her citizens ought to VOC
right at the coming election. First
in order were the addresses by
Messrs Barber and Guernsey whose
manner of treating their subjects,
CON pIetely changed "dry political
speech" into an intelle ctual feast,
while their replies to the questions
thrown in" were like the condi.
ments at the dinnor cable, splicing up
the repast. Next followed Mr..
Bushnell whose taste for mathemat.
les eminently fits him for a profess
sorship in some rising college. Tis
said "Figures won't lie," but if all of
Dir. Bushnell's told the truth, there
could he need of little else. We
would suggest that if the democratic
party wish to retrieve their charac-
ter, they hereafter 'lollow suit" and
deal in figures exclusively. The
evening following, large audience
was treated to "home talent" w.
B. Clarke, reviewing the issues of
the hour. How those towering
mathematical pyramids to which
many had fastened their faith sank
into insignificance, and the subter-
fuges upon which the reformer had
bulded his hopes vanished into tho
air, before the stubborn facts and
forcibe arguments presented by Mr..
Clarke. Very gracefully did he
bring down our reformers from their
pinnacle TO which Mr.. Bushnell's
mathematical car bad carried them.
but one could see from their faces
each was conscious Of having made
the descent en- maSSel If there are
two sides to this question, Ne.
Clarke evidently feels that be has
the right side, and with the in
spiratiou which thai conviction
gives him, he carries his audience
whithersoever he will. Had we
never before heard the names OF
Hayes and Wheeler, Mr.. C's review
of their character as men and pat
riots, would have convinced us, "the
shir of state" would sail clear of ell
breakers, were they her pilot and
helmsman. Last but not least was
the elegant speech of Geo. B Glenn
entson, reminding one of military
strategy Of reserving their big guns
for the final charge. The principles
as we'll as tho candidates of the dem
ocratic patty were his target; Dor
were his, tho random shots of q
novice, but the we'll directed aim of
the experienced marksman, which
could not fail 10 thin the ranks of
that party. After placing in pana-
ramic view, the life work OF the
rival candidates, after contrasting
their record during the last twelve
years, he made an elegant appeal to
the citizens of Bloomington, to DO
true to the interests of the kmeri-
can nation. Can it be that we shall
have among Us intelligent, honest
men, who will on the 9Th day of
Novem Der next, sacrifice their man-
hood-thoir loyalty upon The altar
of craftsmanship when they deposit
their vote for Tilden and Hendricks
against Hayes and Wheeler ?
