This Is BUSINESS. - At a grcenback
meeting in Scott TIP, recently, some man
(whose name we could not learn got up
and said he had long been u supporter of
the HERALD, but that it had gone back
upon greenbackers like himself and re-
fused to publish something for them. The
assertion was false; we never refused be-
cause we were never asked do not know
what we might have done had we been
asked but this we do know and say: If
any man thinks because he is subscriber
to our paper and gets so worth of in
formation Il year for So that he is one of
its editors, or has any particular right to
have columns of stuff published, he is mis-
taken. You pay $500 year, get more
than the worth of your money, and we do
the editing, just as an engineer runs his
train when you buy your ticket and take a
seat in the passenger coach, without help
from you. We are always willing to listen
to all suggestions and advice, and then
do just as we please. The same speaker
intimated that we held Porte Welch's pa
pers in the mails at this place. That was
a base lie, and Porte will never back such a

FIRE.-Wison McFaddin informs us
that the house of W. III. Burlington in the
corner of Harrison Up, was destroyed by
fire, on Thursday, Aug. 10, supposed to
have caught from defective flue. Near
ly everything was lost, including lot of
groceries just received from town a few
hours before, and about $40 in money. The
house was Il good, story and half frame.
Insured for 800.
Mr.. McFaddin gave the particulars of
the burning of his own house, in Cedar TIP,
several weeks ago. A note was made in
the HERALD at the time but the particulars
were not given. He informs us that the fire
caught in the roof, by a spark from the
chimney, and burned the greater part of
the house, though by hard work they saved
two rooms. Nc. and three others were
working the roads nearly mile away,
when Mrs. Nj. saw the fire and rang the
bell, calling them to the rescue. The roof
on one room fell in ere they arrived. Yet
with buckets they saved two rooms, and
most of the furniture was carried out. In
surance agents can find sermon in the
fact that Nc. had allowed his insurance to
run out a few weeks before!

And for the long credit he pays the

hundred per cent, on the price of the

The moral Of this Is, deal with your
home merchants. The men whom
you have known almost eyer since
they went into business, who you
have known and known to be honor
able men. 1t is not at all likely that
they would be more apt to deal I'M
fairly with you than wondering
peddler who cares not one whit about
your good opinion or your friendship,
would do. Your own merchants are
interested in securing your future
trade. They are interested in giving
you the best bargain that the state Of
the market will justify. They make
their living in the same community
where you also earn your daily bread,
and your common sense teaches you
that your old ncighbors will do bet
ter by you in every respect than will

ever roped you III on a lot of cloth,

THE latest charge against Secreta
nv Bristow. is one not affecting his
personal integrity, but his political
soundness. 1t is evidently put forth
in the interest and by the friends of
rival candidates at Cincinnati, and is
designed to weaken the faith of hon
est Republicans in him. 1t is to the
effect that letter written by him
during the war is in existence, where
in he gives as his reasons for resign
ing his Colonelcy in the army, the
fact that the government enlisted
negroes rs soldiers. But like all the
falsehoods put forth to Mr.. Bristow's
injury and discredit, this one has had
very short run. The Secretary has
already pronounced the whole story
unqualifcdly false. lie says that he
did not resign at all, but changed
from one regiment to another, and
SO far as the question of negro troops
was concerned, it was for the govern
ment to decide and not him. His
duty was to obey orders, which he
did at all times.

THOSE Republican papers which
pretend to doubt Secretary Bristow's
integrity as a Republican, because OF
something said in his favor by wri-
ter in the Louisville Courier-Journal,
arguing therefrom that if the leading
Democratic paper in Kentucky en-
dorses him, Republicans should there
fore be suspicious of him, evidently
are not honest, or do not know what
they are talking about. The follow
ing plain language from n late num-
Der of the Couricr-Journal, shows
how it is affected toward Mr.. Bris-
tow:

ces could, or would, the Courier

company had the option of accepting
the land grant to the McGregor ~
Sioux City railroad. That time eS-
PRED last Tuesday, without such &C
ceptance by the company, and now
the grant goes to the Iowa, Dacota
& Black Hills r. II. Co., which is
the old Iowa & Pacific Company un-
der a new name. 1t Is somewhat
doubtful if it will be any reader than
the other company to accept the
grant under the conditions imposed
by the Legislature to guard the
rights of the public.

THE Des Moines Register, Inter-
Ocean, and few other papers of the
rabid anti-Bristow sort, are contlnu-
ally trying to make it appear that Mr..
Bristow's vote in the nominating
convention is likely to be very small,
hardly worth noticing. This theory
is not consistent with the evident
discomfort every mention of his
name gives those papers. If Mr..
Bristow is indeed SO insignificant the
Registers and LOS onslaught upon
him is only equalled in vigor and
Righteousness by Sancho Panza's
bout with the windmill. We doubt
if its animus is half as honest.
