Editor Mo,uer County Transcript:
DEAR SIR :-Second-hand requests, like
the claims of second.cousins, are not al
ways recognized. However, if you think
the following minutes of the doings Of
our Club of sufficient interest, you are at
liberty to publish. In the interest of
your readers, must suggest that in the
future, you send your fair reporter or

some other person better qualified than I
am.
We met according to adjournment,
at Ramsey school-house, Jan. 25th, Presl-
dent H. II. Kent in the chair.
After transaction of preliminary bust.
ness, the essay on Sheep raising, by E.
H. Wells. with authors experience, was
read, followed by some remarks by other
members on the subject.
Mrs. Bero then read selected article
entitled "A Cheerful Face" This was
followed by an article in Liue Stock Jour-
nal, on 1.-THE present outlook of cattle
raising" read by Mrs. H. H. Kent. We
then took recess for refreshments. Being
again called to order the resolution on
the propriety of abating or regulating the
so-called tramp nuisance bv legal enact.
ment was discussed. Mr.. Haney thought
the proposition to abate or regulate was
too selfevident to require discussion or
demonstration. But spoke about the
many cases of outrage and crime com.
mitted by them, and of the constant up.
prehension of danger and the liability
we are under of damage to property and
loss Of life from the desperadoes. Mr..
Mathieson following on the negative, ad.
mitted that the facts were very much as
represented, but thought there was an.
other side to the question. He thought
any stringent enactment would be liable
to abuse, and to result in humiliatlng
and expressing honest well-meaning,
though impecunfous persons, from the
and lazy from the worthy unfortunates.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

John Sherman failed 10 present the advantages
of the CasanaVe ransom as an investment to our
business men. He may have forgotten 1t in the
hurry Of the moment.-C Cincinnati Enquirer.
know the Republican party has made mis-
takes.-F0Ster's speech. One Of the worst 1t ever
made was to try to run bloody shirt campaign
against Ewing and Rice with that valiant soldier
Charles Foster.-AkrOB Times.
General John Beatty says: "I don't care d--n
for Charley Fosters election want to save the
Legislature" As far as Foster Is concerned we
will try and accommodate the Bogs Of the Stall
warts but there is not the remotest chance of the
Republicans carrying the Legislature Holmes

How much has the First National Bank of New
York profted by John sherman's late extension
Of It's Indebtedness to the Governments How
much of that amount has 1t contributed to the
election of Charles Foster? Was 1t a candition Of
the extension OF the government credit to the
First NatioLal Bank, to the extent Of 1888 900 900
that portion of the profit should be contributed

Mr.. Casanave can't understand why all the 9th

or more, have fat Offices and fare sumptuously
while he, who certainly did as much as any o
them, receives none of the fruits" The Sheriff
has seized upon his coffin shop and when HI
asks for money John Sherman says he is hard up
and Hayes calls him a fraud" That is wha
grinds Casanave. He could stand everything
else, but to have Hayes call him fraud is IN
deed base ingratitude.- Washington Post

SHOCKING GLYCERINE ACCIDENT
Two Men Blown to Atoms, Pieces Being Found
Hundreds Of Feet Away.

Two Men Blown to Atoms, Pieces Being Found
Hundreds Of Feet Away.
Bradford, Pa. September 2-on Tuesday morn
ing at 1 o'clock, most shocking accident oc-
CURED near Red Rock, eight miles from this city.
Lewis Grey, a moonlghter, was unloading sixty
pounds of nitro-glycerine to put torpedo in an
oil we'll near by. Charles Jones was with him In
the interest of the owner of the we'll.
In taking the cans from the wagon he dropped
one, and 1t exploded with terrific force. The
ground for half mile around shook like an
earthquake. Both men were torn to pieces.
Grey's liver was found seven hundred feet from
the scene. Bits Of flesh and clothing Were seen
in the trees a hundred feet away The horses
were both killed and the wagon pulverized.
Legless aud headless the trunk of Jones was
found two hundred feet from the road. The larg-
est portion of Gray remains is his neck and
portion Of his shoulder and arm. Joness resi-
dence is not known. He is believed 10 have a
brother mOulder in Pittsburg. Grays home is
Wayne, Erie Co., Pa. Both young men were un-
married.
This morning plug burst from the oil tank
above the city and seven hundred barrels ran
through the rth side OF the city on Tuna creek.
The oil took fire at the tank and great excite.
ment prevailed lest the fire should extend down
in the creek and fire the town. Twenty police
are on duty at the bridge to prevent persons from
crossing with cigars or pipes. All danger is over
now.
