Terrible Runaway at klrkvtlio.
KIRKyILLE, July 10, 1877.

EDITORS CoURIER:-
AT about half past two o'clock
Yesterday, our village was thrown in.
to considerable excitement in conse.
quence of two teams running away
and injuring quite a number of indi.
viduais.
The facts as near as I can gather
them are these: Rev. T. j.. Myers, /
Z. Page and their wives were going
to Salem to attend church. When
opposite DIR. Waddel's the team be-
came frightened and turned sudden
ly around, the seats of the carriage moi
being fastened, sll were thrown out
upon the ground, the team getting
away. 1t ran up Main street. At
John Kirkpatrick's it came in contact
with his team, himself, wife, sister
and daughter being In the wagon
when the runaway team was first dis
covered. His wife and daughter got
out and escaped unhurt: himself and
sister were not so fortunate. M. A.
Kirkpatrick. the sister, is dangerous
ly injured ; Uncle John is not serious
ly hurt but will not ba able to be
about for a week or two; Rev. 7. j.
Myers is considerably injured in
his lady is quite badly, but
not seriously; I. = Page is consider
ably bruised, and Mrs. Page received
somewhat serious Injuries about the
face. M. A. kirkpatrick is the most
seriously injured, having received a
severe wound of chest, penetrating to

10 Lovers Of oood Roads.

Ottumwa's restitution of roads for
pleasure driving, is too generally
known and felt to require comment.
AT this time, few of us care to invite
our visiting friends to ride, for want
of streets or avenues upon which to
drive with safety. Feeling this great
need in common with other good cit
liens, and for the purpose Of melting
property owners and others to COM
binc in making an Improvement SO
long needed, / make the follow
proposition, to-wit: I will obligate
myself to give the sum Of One Thou
sand Dollars to secure the building
of first class Macadamized road
from Court street-either to be con-
structed through Second or Front
streets, (the street giving the most
aid to be selected)-to Warmers hill
beyond the Fair Grounds, . distance
Of nearly two miles, the road to be
properly graded. with stone culvertt
for drainage, where necessary, and
the road or driveway, to be forty feet
wide. The whole to be completed
during the year 1877.
respectfully,

4 GOOD PROPOSITION.

DIR. James l.. Taylor makes prop
osition elsewhere to give $1,000 to-
wards Macadamizing highway from
Court street out to, say Warmers
place, just beyond the fair grounds, a
distance of about two miles.
It is notorious fact that there are
no good roads leading out of the city.
1t is great annoyance, expense, and
discreditt to the city and country alike
that this is so. If stranger should
visit the city and you should desire to
drive him out to see the country, there
is not decent road in any direction
except the one out towards the fair
grounds, and even that one has not
been fit for anything but the heaviest
and strongest road wagons, more
than half the time during the past
three years. The wear and tear Of
vehicles in coming and going over
such roads as lead into the city is no
trifling matter, not to mention the dis
credit it throws upon property situ-
ated on such miserable highways
We hope that the times and weather
will permit, ere long, the country SUI
pervisors to see to it that the roads
and bridges on the highways leading
to the city are put in passable con-
dition for the benefit of country and
city travellers alike.
Not long ago the Board of Super
visors Of Linn county and the peo-
pie Of Cedar Rapids made an appro-
priation of $4,000 to macadamize the
highway from Marion, the county
seat, to Cedar Rapids, the principal
city and commercial metropolis OF
that county. The distance is some
six miles and it is proposed to make
an elegant boulevard lined with trees
ON either side, the entire distance, one
hundred feet wide.
The laboring man who saves money
enough to hire team to take his
family ont airing on Sunday; the
wealthier man who keeps team fol
pleasure, and in fact all classes will
eventually thank this Board of Super.
visors, Of Linn County, for their lib
erality and public spirit.
We have no estimate Of the cost OF
the drive proposed by DIR. Taylor
but 1t does seem 10 us that either by
public or private enterprise, some.
thing ought to be done to utilize hi
proposition, and thus give our people
at least one decent highway.
Labor is abundant, needy and CHEAP
and no more suspicious time could
be suggested than the present.
Our columns are open to any sug'
gestions looking towards making
available the liberal proposition Of
our fellow citizen. DIR. Taylor.

PENALTY FOR TAKING HAY From
CoMMoNs.-T There is a clause in the
State law concerning the occupation
OF unclaimed lands, or taking crops
therefrom, that is not generally un.
derstood. The State Register makes
this announcement: "Neither the
fence nor the herd law protects a
man who trespasses on unimproyed
praire, cuts and hauls away grass OF
hay. While animals can tresspasl
upon such property and eat the grass
with IMMUNITY, the penalty is severe
for cutting grass. Section 1888 Of the
Code provides that taking and car.
rying from sach land, any grass, hay
corn, etc. shall be punished by fine
not exceeding $500, or Imprisonment
not exceeding one year. The penal.
ties for taking grass is next to that Of
horse stealing, and yet how frequent
ly is this law violated both ignorant
ly and wilfnlly ?"

A PUT UP JoB.-Out Of the AZ
delegates nominated In the democrat
ic Township convention, on Saturday
last, 81 are from the city and only
. from tho country. This proves ex-
actly what we said a day or two ago,
that the candidates in the city would
set up the delegation and try to mo.
nopolize all the good nominations in
town. In addition to this each OF
these town candidates will claim that
they can carry from 100 to 800 repub.
lican votes, but when they come to
deliver them they will find thew
havn't got them. In any event We
now predict that the country districts
will be effectually scooped out by the
wire pullers in town.
