lHE meeting of the Diamond City Base
ball Association called in our last issue was
nela on Saturday evening postponed from
friday. No business was transacted ex-
cep1 the election of officers and the appoint
meht of a committee consisting of David
Marks, K. e. Linkfeld and J. E. Stevens, to
oraft a new constitution and bylaws, and
report the same at q meeting to be held ON
Saturday evening next. The officers for
the ensuing year are:
Fresident-T. E. Collins.
Vice President-R. E. Linkfield.
Secretary-David Marks.
Treasurer-C. w. Sutton.
Captain-J. Z. Stevens.
All persons DESTROYS of joining the Asso-
citation are requested to attend at the Re
corder's Office on Saturday evening next, at
1880 p. M, when the organization will be
perfected and the names OF members placed
on the roll.
WE desire to call the attention of our Del
egate in Congress to the necessity Of urging
the establishment of a military post at or
near the mouth of the Muscleshell, as re-
commended by Gen. Miles in his report Of
December "a, 1877. The valleys Of the Ju-
dith and Muscleshell are settling up rapidly,
and would soon become thlckly populated
if government offered the settlers protection
for their herds and flocks. which is certainly
due. There will be 100000 pounds of wool
clipped In this county this spring. which
would 60 to Carroll, the nearest shipping
point, if it was safe, otherwise it will neces
sarily be freighted to Benton, which will IN,
crease the distance to Boston from 200 to 30{
miles. We certainly think our wool inter
ests entitled to as much consideration from
the general government as was accorded te
the Diamond r transportation company two
years ago, when Camp Lewis was establish
ed. A large military post o. the Muscle
shell, near its mouth, would afford ampl
protection to the vast region lying along tn
base of the mountains between the Missouri
and Yellowstone rivers. Our hardy from
tiersmen have braved the dangers of Indian
dian warfare in this section tor the past te1
years, and we think it time the government
established a post which would offer sue
security that they might have a nights res
free from the dread OF midnight alarms, an
we hope that Major Maginnis will press tn
matter with his utmost ability.

FRIDAY evening last a number Of the
young people met at Templars' Hall and
more genuine social gathering we have not
seen in Diamond. The number of ladies
and gentlemen were nearly equal, a circum-
stance remarkable for Diamond. Promo.
nades, social chats, and an occasional song
by some of the company made up the inter-
val between dances. Moments flew by un-
heeded,' and Ia O'Clock, the hour of parting,
came by far too early.

THOSE who wish to see our country re-
deemed from the evil of intemperance
should never lose sight of the paramount
importance OF the right home training of
the young. Nothing can more cffectually
aid the work of educating our boys and girls
in total abstinence principles than to give
them some good young folks temperance
paper. The Young Peoples Co'n'ade is high
ly spoken of for this purpose. This is pub
lished by Z. Pope Vose, Rockland, Maine,
at 60 cts. a year; aid the publisher desires
to find a person actively interested in tenn
perance to make a thorough canvass for it.

AN uNRTANED OPINION.

From Comley's Biographical Encyclope'
dla OF the distinguished men OF the EN-
pIre state, we clip The following: every
nation owes It's peculiar character, il pros.
p%erity-in brief, every thing that diStin.
ruis6es IL as an individual nation-to the
lew men belonging to It who have the cour-
age to step beyond the boundaries pre-.
seribed by ~partisanShip, professional ira
ditions, or social customs. InprofeSslonal,
no less than In political life, there OCCASION
aily arise men who burst the ietters Of con.
~yentionalism, Indignantly rejecting the ar.
bitray limits imposed upon their activity,
and step boldly forward Into new fields OF
enterprise. We call these men self-mGde.
The Nation claims them as her proudest o..
naments-the men upon whom she can re-
ly, In peace for her glory, in war for her
Succor. OF this class OF men the medical
profession has furnished a distinguished
example in the successful and Justly cele'
brated physician, DR.. r. v. Pierce, Of Buf-
falo, MY, and any history treating Of the
industries otthe Empire State would be In.
complete without o sketch OF his useful
life and earnest work." DR.. Pierce Is swell
known to our readers by his popular
Family Remedies and his excellent manual
Of domestic medicine, "The Peoples Com
mon Sense MEDICAL Adviser"
