Down in Goodhue county every
body hopes to live long enough to see
Mart Chandler's successor in the sher.
IFS Office. Not but what Mart's pop
ular enough, but that they all want to
live long. He's in his eig ghteenth year
as sheriff and is now up for a tenth
term.-St. Paul Disatcph.
Goodhue county people know
enough to keep good man in the
place where he will do the most good.
Some foolish persons are pes
tering Peter Cooper, to know wheth-
er he is in favor of a single term for
President. This is unreasonable.
Only consider, the man is eighty
years old!
We will furnish the ADVANCE
from this date till Nov. 10th for 2s
cents in nd7uuce; and from Sept.
1st till Jan. Ist for 50 cents in ad-
vance.

Trenton Letter.

TRENTON, Wis.,, August 10, 1876.
Ed. Grange Adcance:
Owing to the late rains stacking is
postponed and farmers feel down.heart-
ed. Farm workmen are complaining
of the decrease Of wages. They think
the farmer is becoming miserly. Others
say that it is the operation of the
oranges. Let it be what it may, wages
must come down. Who is there that
has paid such high wages, comparative
ly, as the farmer, and with as much
cheerfulness. We know of numerous
instances where the wheat crop did not
pay for the harvesting this year, and
still the farmers do not like to see t.
wasted and instead Of losing one dollar
they lose two. The farmer is a work.
man and he sympathizes with all his
fellow-workmen; he is not like the
merchant dependent wholly upon others,
and when laborers club together and re-
solve not to work for moderate wages
they will find that the farmersean live
without them. Weknow, as: a general
thing, the farm laboreris better of than
the farmer and does not. have half the
risk nor care. ~s 30
Flowing is the order Of the day.
Corn never looked better.

FEATHERsrONE, Aug. 10. '16:


Ed. Grange -4dcance:-In canvass
ing the county of Goodl:ue and other
portions of your State, find coed
many cases of dysentery, and am con-
strained, by regard for suffering haman-
ity, to make public the following efica-
cioas remedy for that terrible disorder:
Tie a teacup full of -four tight in a
cloth and put it in boiling water, letting
it boil four hours. When done, CRATE
it on q fine CRATER. Then boil some
sweet milk, skimming it we'll, and,
when partially cooled, stir in the grat-
ed -four until it is just thick enough to
be drank readily. Add grated nutmeg
plentifully and sweeten with loaf sugar.
When cool let the patient drink it in
moderate quantities until he recovers.
A most excellent remedy for dyspep-
sia is for the patient to take a teaspoon
full of salt in the mouth, right away
after eating, and wash it down slowly
with few sups of water. This con-
tinued for few weeks will entirely re-
store disordered stomach and enable
it to digest the food. 'r.
Yours, &C., J:'HuxrER.

The Congressional Nominee.

We are glad to see that more
rational spirit is prevailing respecting
the congressional nomination in this
district. The first consideration of
the republican voters ought to be to
put a man on their ticket who is
competent and worthy; next that
he shall be able to attract sut1i-
cient vote to make his election sure.
AS for his location in the district
1t is not SO much a matter of mo-
nent, for if he is truly fitted for the
position he will not be partial in his
official conduct to any locality. 1t
does strike us, however, that that
part of the district which is expect
ed to give the largest proportion Of
the votes should have it's wishes de-
ferred to, and when 1t presents a
candidate, the convention ought to
accept him, unless a sufficient rea-
son can be given to satisfy s;bl sen
sible people that his nomination
will be inexpedient.
In the present instance, Gocelhue
county presents the name Of Mr..
Thacher, and many of the stsunch-
est republicans here insist, xuth a
secd'deal of pertinacity that he shall
be the nominee. Numbers will, no
doubt, be greatly dissatisfied if he
is not selected. Under such circ,m-
stances the convention needs to be
exceedingly careful, and to SO act
as to make it plain that whoever is
nominated is the proper man for it
to choose. BY doing thus, although
it cannot hope to satisfy everybody,
it will secure to its candidate the
united support of the party. Espe-
cial pains ought to be taken to dis
prove the. assertions which have
been already made, that some of the
delegates to the convention owe
their selection to unfair means. Let
us have a fair convention, in which
the several candidates for the nomi-
nation will be Justly treated, and
then it may be reasonably expected
that the friends Of all will unite in
heartily supporting the successful
competitor for this distinguished
honor.

CHERRY GROVE, Aug, ls, '76.
Ed. Grange Advance:-
Farmers were looking blue a few days
ago, when those showers were coming
thick and fast and more Of them; and
although, as general thing, they were
through harvesting, very little stacking
had been done, and visions of wet and
grown wheat haunted many like a night.
mare; but happily they were disap.
pointed this time, and now that the
the sky is clear and grain dry they are
putting in full tiene pi]ing it up.
Those who know where to look, say
they have seen numbers of grasshoppers
flying over to-day. This is an encour-
aging prospect fora harvest next year;
and doubtless we may get our crops
taken care of next season the most ex.
peditiously and with less expense than
we ever have here in Goodhue before.
We think your Stanton correspondent
is not exactly right when he says:
" nearly every vote cast for the Coop
er ticket, must cone from the republi-
can ranks" as there are as many, if
not more, democrats in this town who
intend to vote for Cooper than there
are republicans. Men will work for
their own interest, when they know
what that is, let them belong to what
party they may. NJ. E. b.

September 18th, when a harvest
feast will be provided. The. exer-
clses will consist Of singing, the
reading Of paper on harvest festi-
vals, toasts and responses and the
feast; after which it is proposed to
spend the time in amusements and
social enjoymen:s. A pleasant time
IS expected and it is hoped there
will be a large attendance. Patrons
generally are invited.
IT is impossible to give quotations
of wheat, as the market is unsettled
and no sales s;ase being made. Nom
inally the figures are 6oa75c. for old
and Soa85c. for new. The new
wheat yet received has a good color
and general appearance, but weighs
light. We have heard of none be.
ing sold.
a MAMMOTH stock of corn is on
exhibition in this Office, having been
received this morning from Mr.: E. P.
Lowater, who grew it in his garden
in this city. 1t is IL feet e inches
long! This corn was planted June
10Th, just 65 days ago! and it is a
fair sample Of what Minnesota soil
can do.

chased the interest of his partner, w.

the business at the same place.
WM. CAsrELLo, of Welsh, has the
credit this season of having hauled
the first new wheat into this market
on Monday last. Messrs. Chandler

SUPPOSED BURGLAR CAPTURED. =
Nathan Harris, colored, was yesterday
arrested by Officer Carol, supposed to
be implicated in the burglary of the store
of Ratlitf x Cattell, Martins Ferry, o..
some time since. The substance Of the
evidence that will be brought to bear
against Harris, we have been informed,
will be that he Icfta pair of shoes with II
shoemaker in Martins Ferry to be re.
paired on the day of the burglary, and
that the same had never been called
for; also that he had on It
pair OF boots at the time Of
his arrest, supposed to bear the trade
mark of the firm whose store was burg
lar zed. The prisoner was taken To
Martins Ferry, yesterday, where pre-
limlnary examination will doubtless be
mad to-day.
