meet next Monday to nominate can
lidate for Representative. We are in
hopes they will nominate and elect
Capt. S. J. Stewart, of Cottage Grove.

ions of that nature need be expected
should so able and upright man as
Capt. S. be nominated.
Mr.. w. NJ. Snyder took six head of
lis Jersey cattle to the Bismarck Fair,
md in competition with several noted |
,reeders he took three first and four
econd premiums. His yearling bull,
lola Boy" took the, first premium |
'ver the celebrated, herd of Church
nan & Jackson, of Indianapolis. We
re fortunate in having such fine
lerd of thoroughbred Jerseys in Allen
ounty.
w. G. Mcdonald, who attended the
Bismarck Fair, says it was a big thing,
ut thinks it will not be as large again,
ecause there was considerable dissat-
;faction among exhibitors on account
f irregular arrangements for show
1g, by which many of them never
7as able to show at all. It is claimed
hat favoritism was shown, and that
he men and not the stock took most
the premiums.
