George. McKibben has returned
from his westward trip, having Sc.
lected location for himself in Sac
county.
Now that the time for buying and
shipping of grain is at hand ] would
suggest that Clarence would offer in.
ducements superior to any town i'm
the county. The grain yield will be
heavy, and at present the como ele.
vator' stands without an occupant
and with facilities for handling grain
that are not excelled. There is no
reason why il should thus stand idle.
To any one wishing to go into the
grain business am sure il will pay
them to examine this property, eth
er with view of buying or renting,
before doing so elsewhere. 1t is now
owned by Eastern parties, yet
think that A. w. Hillyer, of this
place, is their agent.
Our Clarence Base Hallists go to
your place this coming Friday for the
purpose of amusing the boys down
there. The Clarence boys have played
two games of ball this year and that
is all. They have a ground north of
town short distance and only one
game has been played on it, and not
once has practice game been
played there this season. They hope
to amuse your club, and that is as far
as their expectations go as they make
no calculations on winning, and make
no claim to playing as they have had
no practice at all.
Clarence has been blessed with the
sight of some of those old denizens of
the forest-more commonly known
as Indians. A party, numbering
about p, have camped in this vicinity
and our boys have been taking les
sons with the bow and are trying to
learn the habits Of the noble red man.
A young man, son of Henry Hecht,
died very suddenly few days ago of
Inflammation of the bowels.

In REGARD TO "TR AMPS, it should
be borne in mind that under the de-
velopments Of the last few years, ev-
cry man who comes into the country
on foot and without money, is obliged
To muster under that generic name.
That this does great injustice to many
poor men who only seek honest work
and tair wages, there can be no doubt.
We have only to look around among
the men who possess the broad acres
of Iowa and Cedar counties, to find
meny who would once have been
'tramps" under the present applica-
ton of that word.
But this class Is undoubtedly great
ly in the minority at present. And
while those who actually belong
thereto should have the recognition
that industry merits, it cannot be for
gotten that false representations are
frequently made. And as to the rest
of the great army-those who come
out of the haunts of vice and laziness
when the weather will permit lodging
in fence-corners, and go over the
country As the locuSts came upon
Egypt-they deserve neither sympa-
thy, consideration nor assistance from
any one. Allowing them to beg or
steal their living through the country
Is paying a premium upon laziness
and rascality and putting at CORE
spending discount those who are will
ling to take their share of Adams
brow bleaching punishment.
In our humble opinion, and at the
risk of appearing heartless, he who
gives even a meal of cold victuals to
the genuine tramp" does not only
his own community but society ut
large positive injury. For his par
ticular locality, feeding one lot is on
~ an invitation for more to come
there; and in general, making it pos
sible for men to live in that way is Of
fering bounty for recruits in an
army that God knows Is already dan
gerously large. The following is
quoted from an Eastern exchange,
but is quite as applicable to this Sec
ton as to that, and the course recon-
mended with the actual tramp-who
will beg or steal, but will not work
ought to be supplemented by an act
ual refusal to feed or encourage in any
way:
The necessity for the summary
treatment of tramps Is Imperative. No
one knows half the outrages they
yearly perpetrate throughout the
country. Few men would want to
disclose to the public the insults and
abuses their wives and daughters have
suffered at the hands Of tramps, un-
less the rufilans were near by, where
condign punishment might overtake
them. The tramp of New England is
holder than any other, and the women
and girls Of that section are now prac-
tieing the use Of firearms to protect
themselves. When affairs have ar
rived at such state, il shows gross
neglect of duty on the part of the
male population. The officers of the
law and the honest population know
tramps when they see them. The
failure to arrest them only enables
them to pass on to places where they
may attack unprotected females. The
policy Of arresting them, wherever
found, and putting them to work on
street or country roads, would he the
most effectlal remedy that could be
applied to them.

FROM State Auditor Sherman we
have received a tabulated statement
showing the amount of live stock as
sessed in the State of Iowa for the
year 1877. Cedar county stands very
close to the head with 26,5lS cattle,
II ,O73 horses, 753 mules, 4,52s sheep
and hogs 81, 1863. Clinton is the only
county in Iowa that can scoop" us
all round. She foots up 81, $50 cattle,
ID, Ia horses, 4O7 mules, 3,749 sheep,
and So, 4O3 hogs-and this leaves us
ahead on sheep and mules. Linn
comes next with small lead on cat
tie and horses but being SO far behind
on hogs that that the value of Cedar's
stock is somewhat the greater. Cattle
horses and mules under one year, and
hogs under six months, are not in
cluded in this assessment.
