EpiroR CoUKiER:-McCook Grange,
No, %. h,.d a harvest feast on Saturday
evcui,g of this week, there was u full
house aud it WAS a very enjoyable affair.
Duling last week we had two accidents
First: Cnas. Lamear having INDUCED in
a little Sioux City lightning and com
ing lIome had some difficulty with one
Hamilton about a dog belonging to La
NEAR, that Hamilton was going to shoot,
and while Lamear was drawing his shoot.
ing iron, it WAS by some mcaus, accidently
discharged. the ball lodging in Lamear's
thigh where it still remains, Charley is
now a red ribbon man.
The next was Syrill Bcnoist on con-
ing home from Sioux City, where he had
been with a load of cord wood, full as a
tick Of 40 rod whisky, attempted to cut a
pigeons wing aud shot his revolver in the
AR, aud by some means not explained, y
ball entered his left hand neal the wrist,
passing downward aud completely des-
troying the hand.
1t has become a notorious fact that
uine tenths of the wood haulers going to
Sioux City carry concealed weapons, and
rs there is a law in regard to such matters
it certainly is about time to enforce the
Statutes made and provided for suct
cases.
l am told that McCook is going to start
a lodge Of Good Teaiplars-they surely
need something of the kind.
Yours Truly,

A Cough.

How often We hear the above remark
during these extreme changes of weather
Colds, Coughs and Sors Threats were
never more prevalent among children

country, who acknowledge their surprise
at the wonderful and happy results from
ITS use. That remedy is the well known
preparation, HALE'S COUGH CORDI-
AL. Your own druggist, H. II. Blair.

BE Careful what You Say.
In speaking Of persons faults,

In speaking OF q persons faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember, those with houses of glass
Should never throw a stone.
II We have nothing else to 10
Than talk of those who sin,
IT'S better we commence at home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge a man
Until he is fairly tried;
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some may have faults. and who has not?
The old As well IS young;
Perhaps we may Tor anght we know,
Have fifty to their me.
III tell you Of a better plan,
Ard Hnd it works fun well.
To try my own defects 10 cure
Ere Others faul's 10 tell.
And though l sometimes hope 20 be
No worse than some | know,
Ny own shortcomings bid me let
The faults o. others go.
Then let Ne all. when we begin
To Islander friend or foe,
Think Of The harm one word many do
To those we little know.
Remember, sometimee curses, like
Our chickens. 'Io0at at home: -
Don't speak % others faults until
We have mons Of our own.

THE INvAsTON or MEXICO.
Hayes Government Again Threateains nm
Energetic Policy on the Frontier.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The AdminIstrs-
tion proposes again TO try tho policy by which
one year ago II attempted 10 divert attention
from Its own title-a vigorous treatment Of the
Mexican question. The stage s set again for
the old play. Gen. Ord Is here. Con. Sherman
McCrary. and Hayes hold daily conferences
Evarts and Seward give furtive condolences to
newspaper correspondents OF an energetic
policy on the frontier. Schcicher. who is the
only Texan Congressman In town. has called
upon Evarts with the old story and received the
old assurances. Gen. Ord has come here with
Con. Mckenzie's report Of his hostile ride
across the frontier Of a friendly power. BY
curious coincidence very nearly tho FIRST
full moon after the reduction Of the army
was decided upon. an unusually daring"
raid from Mexico is reported. Nearly three
hundred head Of cattle were driven OF. and re-
port speaks Of twelve killed. This Is one more
than were killed along tho entire Texan frontier
In the year covered by Gen. Ord's report, sub
miued to Congress- Last autumn. Under Gem
raiders. and II is claimed In official circles here
that the refusal OF the Mexican troops to aid this
hsyasion ,so r. contrary to the iSi9rms ssroemeni
exists Evarts had to yield this point and every
other point at Issue when he recognized Diaz,
rcason to believe that as tSs sIY Mexican 2Ga
lister here. Senior Zamacona. has already
addressed remonstrances to the Department
OF State upon the unwarranted intrusion OF our
troops. Tonight II is announced on high au-
thority that Evarts Is to Tetort by addresslng
threatening that II that Government cannot
protect its side OF the frontier. the Government
yl the United States will assume tho unwclcomc
but necessary duty OF keeping the peace on both
sides. Very likely all this will amount TO moth
ing. There. will be dispatches from the Rio
Gus hints will be given Of coming danger
through diplomatic channels; and when trade
has been dlsorganzed. and tho negotiation OF
commercial advantages with Mexico made i'm
possiblc by six months of this sort Of thing,
Hayes VIII probably announce in his annual
message that our relations with Mexico are
peaceful. but may cease 20 be at any time.
