An Accident.

Last Thursday, while our power
press was running at the rate of 900
an hour, one of the rollers came in
contact with a heavy editorial and
was thrown from her bed, falling in
the cogs, breaking one of the large
drive wheels all to pieces. As good
luck would have it, we were nearly
off, having only about 2C0 copies
more TO issue when the accident hap
pened. Not wishing to disappoint
our readers, we sent our foreman TO
ask Col. Hutton for the use of his
press till We could finish our edition.
The only excuse we have to make to
those of our patrons who did not get
a paper is simply this: Col. Hutton
said that under no consideration could
we use his press. Now, we are not
going to blow him up; we are not i'll
the humor nor have we the space C.
time to notice his childishness. Once
when Col. Hutton's press was out of
order we issued his paper for him.
He had one Of our imposing stones in
his office for more than year; he
has often asked and been granted
favors of US, Which we granted glad
y '-1d always will. We have no child
Ike spite against linn IN the world.
This week We arc uu,'cr ru.t,,y oh
legation TO thc edito~ oc the Union
for the use ot lis pc s, which is not
large enough for our regular forms,
but we do the best VIC can and APP
preciate his kindness in helping US in
our difficulty. Col. Hutton need not
have thought that he would beat us
out of an issue of our paper and thus
get some one to pick up his fog
horn. Ifw could have done no bet
ter out forms should have gone to
Fulton. We are sorry the Col. treated
us in the way he did, but think that
even now, he is sorry for it. Our
new wheel from st. Louis will be up
by next week and we will be booming
as usu:l. Colonel, you can't keep
m entefprising man down, even if he
IS young. Whenever you get caught |
as we did we will take pleasure in
helping you out of your trouble.

Since the killing of Charley Iul-
drow, and the citizens meeting last
Thursday night, the distant object Of
which was the closing Of the liquor
traffic in Mexico, some interest has
become attached TO this subject, and
always approaching the demands of
the times, we have taken occasion to
interview all liquor dealers in Mexi-

same mind. ''Thev do legitimate
business, which is what they intend
TO do.''

that if the 1urphics wish them to
stop selling liquor to buy them out

The oily tongued assessor is making
his yearly visit at our several houses.
Mr.. S. Hiles is assessor this year.
Quite number of our young ladies'
have been to Scranton OF late fishing.
They all tell good stories on their re-
turn, but bring no fish with them.
Mr.. Monroe's family, late of Me-
nasha. have moved to Easdailc, Wis.
They were a very estimable family and
Dexter people will keenly feel
their loss among their many social
gatherings, as the Misses Ms. always
took an active part. The good wishes
of their friends go with them.
