SELF BINDERs.-Our Grand Prairie
correspondent pronounces the Self
Binders failure in that vicinity. This
agrees with all we hear from other
parts of the country. Probably this ap-
plies only to this season, where wheat
has been badly lodged and down.
Our correspondent also speaks of the
success of the Header i'll Grand Prairie.
This machine is new in Mobiles county,
and we should be pleased to hear from
others lis to the working of the Header.
The Grand Prairie region is a wheat
paradise, but reports from there this
season are not very encouraging.

Our friend John Hansberger conn.,,
plains that prairie chicken hunters are
very careless about shooting Ill close
proximity to his grain stacks and house.
There is danger of firing stacks and
barns in this way, to say nothing of
putting out peoples eyes. We know
from the complaints that our farmers
are annoyed considerably in this way
every year, and in speaking for Mr.. H.,
we speak for all. Of course, chicken
shooters who invade premises without
permission of the owner, are aware that
they are liable to an action for trespass.:

It is stated that the officers of the
Chicago 4 Northwestern railway think.
the wheat traffic they will receive from
Minnesota this year will probably ag-
gregate 3,O00,0|W or 100000 bushels,

This is substantially the opinion of the
President of the Southern Minnesota
railway. Both of these roads run
through sections Of country where the
blight IS most severe.-Wells Advocate.

A CORRESPONDENT writes Us as
follows:
Judge w. X. Homan, of Caldwell,
is the Independent candidate for Sena-
tor against Thompson, the regular
nominee. He is newspaper man, a
iurist, and cultivated Christian gen.
tleman, and very popular. These facts
taken with the general complaint
against conventions, will probably Sc
cure his election-especially 1t the
Republicans should fail to make a
nomination. Mr.. Holman would as
nearly represent the whole people OF
his District as any other man. lie is
conservative, patriotic, cautious and
conscientious. And if he should beat
Mr.. Thompson in the race, the inter
'ests of the county would be safe.
