THE INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSA>
RIES.
Where and how the people celebrated In Grant
County

Grant County was very patriotic
last Fourth" We can count, -let's
see-Beetown, Potosi, Glen Haven,
British Hollow, Patch Grove, Mt.
Hope, Boscobel, Animation and we
don't know how many more celebra-
tions. If we count such as the picnic
party in Clark's grove in Lancaster
there may have been twenty celebra-
tons in Grant County. There has
not been such an epidemic of celebra-
tons since time before the war. We
have reports from the eight places
above named besides items concern
ing the celebration at Prairie du
Chen, where Mr.. Hazelton spoke, and
at Clayton, Iowa, where a number of
Wyalusing people went. Some of
these reports are very full. If we
should publish all of them we would
hardly have room for anything else.
We therefore summarize from the re-
ports briefly.
MT. HOPE.
DR.. Sloat informs us that the Mt.
Hope celebration was entirely salts
factory to those who participated in
it. The crowd was large enough.
They were social people and afford
ed each other mutual enjoyment. Prof
Brindley made the speech and it was
pronounced capital one. Vocal mu-
sic was conspicuous item in the per-
formances and they had martial mu-
sic. After dinner they had any guam
titles of toasts, both juicy and dry.
GLEN HAVEN.
The celebration at Glen Haven was
attended by number of people esti.
mated at 1000. The procession
formed in front of the village and
marched up the ravine to beautiful
grove where the brooks ran down on
either side. In the procession the
States were represented bys38 beauti-
fully dressed little girls and con-
spicuous figure was young lady rep
resenting the Goddess of Liberty.
The officers heretofore named in the
announcement did their duty credi-

THE POPE AND JOHNSON
 COUNTY LINE.

Some weeks ago we called at tention 70 the notice published in the DEMOCRAT to the effect that a bill would be presented to the present Legislature defining and fixing a new line between tue counties of Pope and Johnson.
 We called attention to that no, tice in our local column in order that 1t might not escape the at tention of interested parties, and, so that, if any party or parties had any protest or remopstrance to enter they might have due time to prepare the same. From the fact that we have heard of DO such protest or remonstrance be ing prep red we take it for grant ed that the parties who live on the territory which will be trans. ierred from Pope to Johnson. should the proposed chalge be made, are willing for the change. The proposed change will take something like one hundred square miles from the present territory of Pope county.
 It strikes us that tho conven- fence of all parties would have perhaps been better served, and a straighter line been obtained by running only two miles east on the township line between townships ;ine and ten, and thence directly north on the sec. tion line between sections thirty- one and thirty two in township ten, to the Newton county line.
 This would have given Johnson county about fifty square miles off of Pope county and would have thrown the line for portion of the way nearly on the backbone oi the divide between B!g and Little Pineys.

In MemorIam..

Died in Russcllville, Pope County, Al k ansas. on the 24 h December, 1sIG. Mrs. Elizabeth Howell, aget a years. oie month and three days.
 Mrs. Howell was the daughter of George and Elizabeth Etter, and was born in Virginia Nov. 2lst, lI92, her parents moved to Hawkins Co.,, E. Tennessee, when she was , years of age. Sine was happily mar ried to Jas. II. Howell, May 7th, 1912. Tn 1927 the family moved to Hardin Co.,, Kentucky and settled near Elizabethtown-f thence in the fall of lSll to Norristown, Pope l County, Ark, where the husband and father died in 1918, and Sister Howell re nained living with her daughter, Mrs. Bernarl, (now Mrs. White) at orristowh, until lST4 when she removed with her daugh- ter to Russcliville, Pope county. Ark, and remained with her until freed from suffering by death. Sis ter Howell was the mother of ten children, two only, of which, su .- vive her. H.. C. Howell of Dover, 1 Ark, Ca respected and cultivated gentleinan) and Mrs II. r. White of Russeliyille, well known to the travelling public, and true friend and warm advocate of Southri Il l Metbodism.
 During the last four years of her earthly career it was the privilege Of the writer L, be her Pastor-aiId often has she cheered his heart by the heavenly glow of her counte- nance and the words which fell from her lips-comiug rom a heart rendered" with the fire of God s love. Any one to be with "Grand- l ma" was with a witness for Jesus. l She took firm hold on Christ sixty four years ago and had the evidence of things not "seen" as her eXperi- ence Gas her own words will show as she gave it to the writer of this imperfect sketch Jan. 18th, 1876. She said "ln 1872 the 7th day of May 1 was married-the 3Gth day Of the same month and year joined the church (MethodisD on probation. The 22d day of the following Au- gust God for Christ sake" (brother not mine) converted my never dying soul, and brother, l have never had the least doubt of the fact from that to this day" Grandma (we all called herr was made inexpressibly happy that day in telling how she felt siXty-lour years ago, when first she tasted pardoning love which had been her privilege tliuus- andS of times since.
 While she lived the natural she also enjoyed the Spiritual life. 1 left her room that day thanking God in my heart for Religion that could outlive all the aches and pains and disappointhcnts of fOurscore and four years and for the experi- ence of a witness for Jesus which carried me back so near the pure fountain-head of Methodism.
 Her example is worthy of imita- tion. Her death triumphant. Her body is resting in the family grave yard at Nurris;o VII. Her spirit is with Jesus and her loved ones N ho have died in the faith, and to that blessed cline all her relatives and friends may go and have a reuuion where parting shall be no more.

A Card 10 the Public.

For mlny years we have made two medicines sl,itetl to the ailments of a vast class of sufferers. Thous- ands of cures h we been made by by them, and, in fact, the word fail- ure could not be coupled with lheiH. But within the last two years coun- trrfeitS ot our me licine have spr"ng up, dangerous in the.r close inita- ton Of our Trade Marx. To secure the people we have placed upon each genuine box oi Holl0Way'S Ointment the fac siniile of the sig nature of our agent, Mr. Jos. Hay dock. To c0pilterleit is felony. We shall relenthss|y purSue any one who initiates this with the utmost vig0r of the law. We most earnest ly beg that the great mass of the American people will ai . us in onr fl lrts to protect their health, and helJ Us in our task of bringing these most unprincipled men to the bar of justice. Uniformly refuse to purchase Medicines purporting 10 be ours unless Mr. Jos. Haydock $ signature is attlcned to each box of Pills or pot of Ointment and the end will soon be reached.

yon6 a doubt that four, and even five bales Of cotton being made on one acre Of land is not all iinp0ssibility. We advise all persons to read the advertisement, and send and get circulars containing certificates teS- tifying that iis did produce at that rate in Texas the past season. 1t has lo9g since been clearly desnoH- sirated that cotton, like every hing else, can be improved very mate rially, and that ir will pay to buy improved seed, and the plan for farmers to make money is to get good improved see for everything they raise--plant less land, cuiti- vate better and make more to the acre. We hope to zee the Cheatham seed more extensively planted next season, for we are sure there is mer- it in them, and the prices are so greatly reduced that it would pay anyone to buy them now to plant their entire crop.
