GARFIELD. ka., Nov. 10.
Dear Friend Reporter:
This part of Kansas, Pawnee coun-
ty, suffered from partial drouth this
summer. Wheat only went from 3 to
s buShel per acre. Oats failure.
Indian corn part of crop. Egyptian
corn a good crop. Sweet potatoes from
a third to half crop. Irish potatoes
in this part of the county we're an en-
tire failure, other parts of the county
a fair crop, other produce in proper
ton. except millet which was generally
speaking, a grand crop. ! had five
acres of the best millet | ever saw
grow this season. June, July and
August gave US bountiiul rains. Hun
dred5 OF acres of sod were turned over,
and a large acreage of wheat sown this
fall. September was very dry and
farmers had to stop sowing. October
the same. and November, until the
10th and 18th, when we had encour-
aging rains, which insure our wheat
crop for next year, so far as moisture
is concerned 4 great many people
have left this part of Kansas on ac-
! count of limited means, others take
their PAGES, go the world goes and
comes. We are having beautiful
weather. Farmers are busy breaking
since the rains. No frost yet to speak
of, the latter part Of October was
very cold, yet stock arc getting THEN
living from mother earth just the same
as in summer, and will all winter il
we do not have any snow to prevent
Even some of the farmers are break
ing with their teams, only feeding ;
little grain. and picking night ant
morning. Stock of all kinds prefe,
the buffalo grass, at this season to the
best hay, that can be put up. Elec
ton passed off very quietly, The
Republican ticket. was elected, Over
! the Greenback and Democrat, by ove1
400 majority in the county. Gran
and Blaine are our presidential candi
dates in this part of Kansas. Pawne'
county will give thoes heroes over SOC
majority, which is moderate estimate
| will try and give the readers of thu
Rapids letter every month hereafter
giving an account of the weather, crol
and other items Of interest which
think will be Of interest to them ant

Efisc9nsin's Registry Law.
7. j. IlECox.

The registry law deprived many
voters Of the privilege of casting their
ballots on election day. II some eases
men who have voted for thirty years
were left out in the cold, and were
obliged to leave the polls with the un-
pleasant reflection that they were dis
franchlsed. We would like to have
Republicans, who are heavy on the
supremacy Of the general government,
tell us by what authority State i'm
poses restrictions which prevent citi-
zens Of the United States from voting.
Aside from all questions Of Federal
supremacy, the law, or that feature of
of it which prevents old and we'll
known citizens from voting because
they may forget the formality of reg
ist"ring their name prior to election
i y, is unjust, and bears prima facie
evidence Of unconstltutionality An
e Effort is being made in Milwaukee to
test this question in the courts s. s.
Merrill, aud other leading business
men, were obliged to pocket their bal
lots and 90 home without voting. and
they don't relish the joke f.; in fact
they can't see any joke in it. Nadi-
son Independent.
1t requires no journalistic signature
at the foot Of an article like the above
to confirm the fact that it is the off
spring of a bourbon sympathizing pa
per. The average democrat in our
large cities has our warmest sympathy.
| Where he used to vote twenty times,
! he is now obliged to forgo that hither-
to exquisite pleasure and minus the
drinks, come down to business and
vote Just ONE ballot. We know its
hard, but its honest And then, we
realize the gerry great Inconvenience,
! it puts one to, to register. It's an
awful punishment, but remember
republicans stand it without groahing,
and rather like it because great good
comcth out of this political and moral
Nazarath. We really hope "Mr.
Merrill and other leading business
men will be more thoughtful another
two years, and save the Independent
the exquisite torture it must have
experienced in travail in giving birth
to so remarkable "stalwart" as the
above.

II LOOKS wonderfully as though
the South were going to be solid for
Grant in 1880. This may be patriot
ism, and it may be slush. 1t may be
making virtue Of necessity, and it
may be all talk, but whether it be the
one or the ItAcr. it is sense. We re-
member when a boy, an cd farmer
who had planted an acre of water
melons. and the boys mouths began to
water about July. But when it came
to be whispered that the old man was
about to purchase a big bull dog that
had taken the seat cut Of every ur.
chin's breeches in the village, they
Immediately began to grow very affec
tionate toward the "purp." It was:-
Here Bose, here Good doc, -
"Splendid fellow, Grave fellow
and pats and caresses, and lneaty bones
came to that canine in abundance.
Wonder if the South don't want to
concliate the bull dog that is going tc
watch the national melon patch?
