BRANDON, Iowa, Mar. 6, rs.
ED. BULLETIN:-Our town meeting
came off last Thursday, which was we'll
attended, there being 2l7 votes polled.
"FOr taxation" %. Against taxation"
142, which settles the question over
which so much mind and ink has been
wasted. The election passed off very
quietly, although there was some argu-
ments on both sides, every one seemed
to have made up his mind how to vote
before he came to the polls. The day
was very pleasant, aud the ball players
enjoyed themselves in this direction,
which is something that is seldom seen
in Iowa, on the last day of February.
The weather still continues very
warm, and every thing at present indi-
Gates an early spring. Some farmers
are blowing and some have sown a little
wheat. Spring birds are very plenty.
L guess that the frogs were foolish
cough to listen to some of our prophet
ic men who, last fall, prophesied a hard
winter, and went down so deep that
they cannot get out, for we have not
heard their melodious strains, as yet,
enlivening the evening air.
There has been a series of meetings
at the Chapel for about four weeks,
under the direction of the Pastor, Rev.
r. H.. Riley, assisted by Rev. Geo. AL
len. Quite an interest has been mani
tested in the community. About sew
enteen have professed forgivness, and
nine have joined the church; the de-
nomination, Wesleyan Methodists.
A donation was held at Rev. Geo. Al
lens last evening, for the benefit of
Rev. r. II. Riley, which was well at
tended, and was an enjoyable time to all.
The proceeds amounted to $3.50.

THE Clerk of the District Court. |


THE Clerk of the District Court. ID.
i. Smith, received this morning a dis
patch from Judge d. S. Wilson-whoi is
in Observation-Disclosures him that he
would not be present to hold court at
the regular term, which was to haye OPP
ened on Monday next. and directing
him to give notice of adjournment until
April -. This order comes on the
very eve of the term, when the iurics
and the great majority Of the witnesses
have been summoned. and when every
body. having business with the court
had made preparations for attending to
it. 1t is estimated that it will cost the
county and parties litigant at least ST.
900 of unfruitful expense, and as may
be imagined, it is not received by attor-
neys and %suitors with perfect cquanim-
ity. There should be good and impera-
tive reasons for an order that affects so
many people and involves so much ex-
pense as this. The only one that we
have heard suggested, is the fact that
Judge Wilson is earning a big fee in
Washington as attorney for the famous
McGarraghan claim, and cannot afford
the time to attend to his official duties
in Iowa.

Sherman Syrup"

No other medicine in the world was
ever given such a test of it's curative
qualities as Boschee's German Syrup.
In three years two million four hundred
thousand small bottles of this medicine
were distributed free Of charge by drug
gists in this country to those afflicted
with Consumption, Asthma, Group, Sc
we're Coughs, Pneumonia, and other dis
eases of the Throat and Lungs, giving
the American people undeniable proof
that German Syrup will cure them.
The result has been that druggists in
every town and village in the United
States are recommending it to their Gus
toners. Go to your druggist and ask
what he knows about it. Sample bot
ties 10 cents. Regular size, 70 cents
