tsFotch Her Out"
from the Alta California

!
In California, twenty years ago, men
would flock in crowds to catch glimpse Of
that rare and blessed spectacle, a woman.
Old inhabitants tell how in camp, the news
went about early in the morning that wo-
man was come They had seen calico
dress hanging out of wagon down at the
camping ground-sign of emigrants from
over the great plains. Everybody went down
there, and shout went up when an actual
bona fide dress was discovered futtering In
the wind The male emigrant was visible.
The miners said "Fetch her out !'' He
said, "It's my wife, gentlemen she Is sick
and we have been robbed of money, provis-
ions and everything by the Indians-we want
to rest" Fetch her out That was the
only reply. He "fetched her OUT" and they
swung their hats and set up three rousing
cheers and tiger /; and they crowed around
gazed at her, and touched her dress, and
listend to her voice, with the look of men
who listened to memory rather than pre-
sent reality aud then they collected 1880
in gold and gave 1t to the man, and swung
their hats again and gave three more cheers,
and vent home satisfied.

The temperance movement or that Is
select few of it, have quietly mapped out a
line of policy in their nomination. Mr..
Moore is Democrat and must reform his
party, and as Dan Hamilton, the colored

all Republicans are temperance men, Of
course the Republican vote will be all the

sign the iron-clad oath at once, and get a

Eaten by Bull Dogs.
From the Columbus Statesman. j

From Inc COIuluUuH 6tdUH6udI1s
About eleven o'clock yesterday morning,
a man named George Long, who lives on
John street near Gordale, and who was on
the farm of Daniel Thomas, opposite the
Columbus Rolling Mills, hunting walnuts,
entered the orchard of the latter for some
apples, when he, Mr.. T., set his dogs upon
him. They attacked the man with such fe-
rocity that he was unable to get away from
them, and urged on by their owner, they
rot him down and lacerated him to such an
extent that his recovery is matter ofdoubt.
The affair was witnessed by several persons
from short distance, but they were unable
to render any assistance in season. Mr.. L. :.
it seems drove off his dogs after seeing that
there was danger of the man being killed
outright. Mr.. Long staggered onward till
he reached the Columbus and Toledo rail-
road bridge, where he gave entirely out
from loss Of blood. From this place he was
helped by some friends. DR.. A. Neil was
called in to dress the wounds. He pro-
nounced 1t the worst case of dog biting
that be had ever seen. The chief wounds
| are in the legs or in the neck. From the
calf Of his leg the flesh had been so torn az
| to leave cavity reaching to the bone large
enough to contain hens egg. A cash is
torn In bis neck two inches long and in other
places his flesh is terribly mangled. Mr.
Long is an industrious working man, in the
employ of the Asphalt Company. The fam
| lily are now left in destitute circumstances
and are now worthy objects of charity. Mr..
Thomas is Welt known farmer of consider
able wealth, who resides on his farm on the
west side Of the Olentangy river, adjoining
the corporation limits. His dogs have quite
a local reputation for ferocity, and recently
drove some parties who we're fishing in th'
vicinity into the river. They are the terro
of the citizens Of the neighborhood. Th'
indignation of the citizens of the Tenth
ward, where Mr.. Long resides, rose to tn
highest pitch upon the circumstances ofth
case being known that their was talk q
once to administer lynch law to Mr.. Thom
ss, bus more prudent counsel prevailed.

Of the campaign has but just begun. The
verdict of the great contest between the
national parties On Tuesday last has been
sounded, and it is not unfavorable to the
Democracy. Indiana is Democratic, and
Ohio Republican; there has been nothing
lost that the home Of Hayes would 60,
Democratic was not the hope of the most
sanguine, and found no such expectancy
until the closeness of the returns created it.
West Virginia is Democratic, and judging
from the present tandpoint, it may safely
be said that it was drawn battle. This is
considering it nationally, and without the
blindness of jealousy. There has been no
marked determinations Of party strength
which can fairly index the direction Of the
current in the Presidential contest. Let
the work Of the future be the improvement
of that just passed; let this deluge Of ora
tory in the campaign be continued. The
worst has not come; last Tuesday was but
the precursor of a warmer and even more
actively fought war. November decides
more than has October. Therefore draw
the sword, buckle the armor afresh and
tighten every sinew, for the war Of the
campaign has but just begun.

The estimates made by the Republican
heads Of departments for the current year
amounted to $203;o09,025. The Demo-
cratic House allowed them only $l3S, S,752,-
$40, but the Senate increased it to $685.
26O,598. This sum was reduced by the
House to $l47,719,074, which was the
amount OF the appropriations actually
made. The House thus reduced the appro-
priations $29,O94,25S below those of last
year, and $55, ,379;951 below the estimates
for this year. The reduction would have
been SIC, 900, 900 greater if it had not been
for the obstinacy of factious Senate.

"A CARD.


ADJUST 1910.
In issuing his card 10 the public, II is sim
ply our intention 10 give our reasons why we
are not able to reduce The price Of our MAX
NUN PER1'LLIZE'R for The present season.
In making our purchases Of materials used
in the manufacture Of MAXIMUM" we have
always exercised the utmost care and diligence
in the selection of stock Of materials, know
ing that our9ood aaas and personal reputa-
ton is identical with the farmers interest in
getting the highest grade fertilizer made in
the country and in our MAXIMUM FERTI-
LlZER we guarantee and stake our personal
reputation upon il that the MAXI UNI is the
best fertilizer in the market, and has proven
the Justice of our claim for IT, by HE coniin-
uance to use il of the best farmers in every
section of the country where il has been in
troduced. We have had this year TO 20 TO
Savannah, Ga, where the agents of the Pc
ruviau Government had their last and only
cargo Of original high-grade Gaanape Guano
stored, 10 make our purchase of Peruvian Gu
ano, in order to get such would insure the
former established grade, and secure beyond
doubt the reputation of 'MAXlMUM -
In securing this high grade Of Peruvian
Guano we have paid a tdrge Increase on the price
of last year, aud the present price OF Peruvi-
an Guano now being sold from the agency of
the Peruvian Government in New York. 1t
will he readily seen by the intelligent farmer
that Peruvian Guano being AN imported ar
tice, is not affected by any depressons in
either our financial or commercial markets,
and therefore we who use Peruvian Guano ca
ciusicely never have the opportunity TO make
purchases of materials to advantage in times
of depression, as Others have who use part
or wholly Of domestic articles, such rs dried
blood ard animal matter of various kinds,
and we consequently have not the margin TO
reduce our prizes.
In conclusion, we offer MAXIMUM at the
same prices as last year feeling that the far
mers who now use il will SEE il 10 their inter-
est to pay the same price rather than get a
small reduction in price aud a ereater one in
quality.
With many thanks for past encouragement
and guaranteeing The MA IINLIM FER IT.
LIHER fully up to its pas standard, we ask
from the farmers who have so successfully
used it in former wears, continuance of their
patronage for the present season.
