RAILROAD NOTEs.-There is rumor
atloat TO the effect that on ard after the
completion of the extension from AleXan-
dria to Barnesville, this will be the branch
instead of the main line, and trains will
run by daylight In regard to the question
of fuel supply it is now currently report
ed on apparent good authority that no more
wood will be furnished after December
LIST, but that coal will be sold instead.
LIE NAILED 1t has been asserted by
certain parties that the money to pay the
| Morris Brass Band for their services dur
ing the present week was furnished by Col.
Crooks. Messrs. r. G. Moore, ]. D. Good,
W. j. Munro, G, l.. Brown, and several
others raised the amount by private sub
scliption. Comment is unnecessary, except
to remark that the enemies of the enter
prise don't stick at o lie to gain their
point.
HEAvENWAND.-Grou is cheap up in
the air, at least so Elmer thinks, and con-
scquently his new hotel is going to be a
four instead of three story. Mr.. Elmer's
enterprise, pluck, and perseverance Is GER
tainly commendable, and is only limited
by his means. There are few men in this
village who have done so much with so
little capital and in spite of jeers, sneers,
jibes and abuse, Elmer is ahead, and is
keeping on in spite of every opposition.
STILL ANoTHER.-A rumor, to the eff
feet flat another elevator would be built
this fall, was current yesterday. AS near
as we can learn there will be an an effort
made to organize a stock company among
the business men at this end of town, for
the purpose of erecting an elevator on
the grounds opposite the engine house.
We do not think, however, that anything
, will be done this season, as three elevators
; are more than sufficient to handle the crop.
For THE LADIES ONLY.-Mrs. p. III.
| Fitzgerald announces in card elsewhere
published, that she has opened new mil
] linery store. Mrs. Fitzgerald has had
many years experience in the leading mil
linery establishments of the large cities
and will exert herself to please her Gus
q temers, and merit share of the public
patronage. New goods of the latest styles
are arriving daily, and large and careful
y selected stock is ready for the ladies in
spection.
CAUTIoN.-We like fair play, and would
caution the voters of this county to reaC
every name on their tickets. 1t has beer
customary for some years, to split ticket.
- and use pasted slips; this is all right whel
it is not done with the intention to deceive
if Republican or Democrat objects to ont
> or two names on q ticket, and desires t
scratch or erase these names and substitute
others, it is his privilege to do so, but it i
@ simply fraud to impose upon any voter
split ticket for genuine. Consequent,
II we desire to warn the voters of this count,
e to beware of these fraudulent tickets. Thi
a can only be done by reading carefully tn
IS names on the ticket you deposit in TIL
ballot box.
= CATHOLIC FAIR.-A fair for the benefi
e o. the Catholic church of Morris, will b
L opened on the evening of the 18th of Nc
S vember, in Mr.. Goods hall. The ladie
are exerting themselves to render it NOR
L. than usual success, and hence offer ever,
II inducement to patrons to invest thei
), money with all possible chances of prof
re and amusement to themselves and friends
Besides the many attractions presented q
ID the various tables; there is splendid Ii
Ut dy's gold watch to be awarded to the mos
er popular merchant, at ten cents a vote, an
n doubtless considerable competition will b
4. manifested by the friends of the contes
tants, each endeavoring to secure it fo
- their favorite.
>, IMMENSE YIELD.-Mr. Mark Coleman
,o on his farm two and one-half miles sout
;, of this village, raised this year on sever
. teen acres foe hundred and forty 6usAe
Of aoheGt, or an average of about MSrta
ot one bushels and three pecks No. 1 whea
u per acre. This is an enormous yield, will
Dr. out any doubt the largest in the State. TIL
Ell wheat is of the variety known as the Ru.
d STA tea, and is large fine berry. One sac
III or two bushels having in two seasons thu
multiplied. On another field sown wit
al Scotch fife the average was nearly twent,
ID three bushels per acre. Mr.. Coleman ca
s, consider himself the boss wheat grower {
B. Minnesota, we would like to hear frol
4, anyone who can beat this average
It THE New ELEVATOR mentio
III was made in last issue of the fact that au
other elevator was to be built on ii
st. grounds opposite the bank. The gentl
