Garfield the best Epitome of Re-
publicanism.
From Hdrpers Weekly.

from HdFpeTS HeeHy'
In General Garfield the sound views,
the high spirit, the patriotic purposes
and principles of the Republican par
ty have most fitting representative.
The st. Louis committee, which was
to call convention il it had become
necessary to organize against third
term. promptly congratulated him,
and were left without duty except
that of working for his election. The
Independent Republicans of New
York, the Republican League of Phil
adelphia. the Young Republicans of
Massachusetts, and the similar Re-
publican associations in Illinois and
elsewhere, representative of an ener-
gy, Il conviction. and 4 fidelity which
will be felt everywhere in the cam
paign, enthusiastically accept Il can
didate for whome they will most glad
ly labor; and there is perhaps, no
man who could more closely unite the
the different wings of the party, and
secure Il more harmonious and trium-
plant campaign, than the leader
whose portrait we present to-day. and
whose name will ring from every
stump from June to November.

The Fourth ia !Nankdf0.

The almost impromptu celebration OF
the Fourth Of July i'll MankatO, was
quite surprise to our people. At no
time since the Centennial, have We had
81 much Of Il demonstration. The pro
cession, under the management OF Maj
Rose and his able assistants, DIR. Frisbic
and Mr.. Fred. Kron, was grand success
Superior Hose Co. No. ?, splendidly uni
formed, led the column. Then the God
dcss of Liberty and the full representa-,
ton of States by young girls. Next
came His Hon, the Mayor, nObly sup
ported by Brothers Wise, of the Recie :,
and Brommic of the BOebachter. Fol
lowing the Mayor was the City Council
and the Board of Trade, in carriages.
The Ku Klux put in a miscellaneous
and diabOlical appearance. The Singer
Co. was represented by eight wagons,
appropriately dccked. Jensen Il lIocrr
made most creditable exhibition, with
five wagons, on which the work of their
shops was being vigorously pursued. A
horse on u raised platform was actually
shod while riding in the procession
Prael Il DuBuisson made splendid de
monstration. Their dry goods car was
beauty, with its rich draperies and
goods on the counter. and clerks ready
to sell. 1t attracted great attention
Miller IL Buch, grocers, made Il good
show. Freeman & Son, with Tanning
Mills; John Freehold with goods in his
line; Clark with his gayly decorated
milk wagon, all made good display
Greibel Il Bros, displayed shoe-making
III full on their platform wagon, and l.
employees at work. Wiswcll, with hi,
genuine Wheeler Il Wilson, and Sam
born d. Wall with their gay wagons
loaded with sewing machines and mus
ical instruments, gayly swelled the pro
cessiOn. O'Leary, the ice and pop man
and Austin l. Co.. with shoes aud such
looked gay. John Klein's furniture
wagons looked beautiful. The mel
were all at work and displayed his bus
mess in fine style.
Lower town, and the Germans especi
ally, bore conspicuous part in the Gel
cbratiOn and deserve great credit 70
their patriotic feeling. Judge Brown
gave good address replete with histor
ic lore, and in every way apprOpriat
to the occasion. Foot, wheelbarroN
and sack racing, closed the day. o.

itself on this almost impromptu celo

Tndependence DAN at A,ntoy.

From far and near, in response to the
call, $500 people assembled at the new
town Of Amboy to wake anew the re-
membrance of our National Independ
ence. After the mists of the morning
had foated away, the day became Il
lovely one. The forenoon was devoted
to speeches from William Plymate, o.
Il. Conrad, Rev. J. Z. Conrad, and Capt
J. A. Reed. The speeches were well re-
ceived and much appreciated, renewing
the recollections of the early history of
the county and setting forth the marked
changes and desirable results attained.
While all had elements of merit, we
cannot forbear saying that any thing OF
a partizan nature is in bad taste on n
Fourth of July occasion. Party speech
es TOR the campaigns, but National
speeches for National days.
A comic song by Mr.. Booth, was well
taken by the hearers. The speeches

HOU THE SELF BINDERS ARE
pORkIN(,,


(Erom the Farmers Review, Chicago)
From $50 to 800 of the st. Paul Irvine
binders have been at work, II large pro
portion OF them in Randolph county.
We hear of many of them in the vicini
~ of Sparta. They have done exceed
ingly well, cutting from torty-fvc to one
hundred and sixty acres each, in most
satisfactory manner. The demand for
them has been such that in several cases,
after cutting the purchasers crop. they
have been disposed of at full cost price,
or above il to neighbor, and hayc thus
done double service. 1t is thus that
machinery accomplishes work so rapidly
that large acreage can be cut and put
up before the grain becomes too ripe to
handle well. The st. Paul, undouDted-
ly, to-day stands first in the list of Irvine
binders. For sale by Davis & Dean,

BARNTM.
The Features Of the Big Shoe.

rae FedfHs'es Of fhe BIG SHOW.
The SpyOf Worcester, Mass, says Of
Barnum's great show:
AT O'clock the matinee patrons of the
big show began to crowd the museum
and managerie, and all lind entertain
ment for all hour or so i'm studies OF the
formers curiositiCs and the latters collec-
ton of rare beasts and birds, both offer
ing mass OF novelties beyond usual.
The circus entertainment and n host of
agile acrobates, daring gymnasts, expert
Jugglers and athletic leapers are pleas
ing TO all lovers of manly strength and
skill in varied acts, while Madame Dock
rill and Sebastian are gaining storms of
applause by their dashing equestrian acts,
while Miss Lake Is showing the ladies
the grace possible in The side-saddlc, and
Herr Neyggard and his wife ride four
horses in showing style.
The stations and the steers delight city
and country folk alike with their won
derfull trick-training, and are Il marked
feature of the show.
ZaZel, the browning sensation of the
show, discarded her japanese umbrella
(used as Il balance) at Springfield, last
evening. She exhibits wonderful nerve
in her wire walking, which only pre-
cedes her startling dive and somersault
from the top Of the tent, and her aston
ishing final flight from u lannon's mouth,
the browning act OF the highly enjoyable
entertainment.
That there is no humbug about even
the minor features of the show Is vOuched
for on the authority of the Springfield Re-
publican, as follows:
"Barnum Is once more vindicated. There
was some scepticism about town as 20
whether his group Ofnative Zulus would
prove to be foreign or home Sayages, espc-
cially since the excitement at Hartford Il
few weeks ago, when Mr.. Wilder inter
viewed an alleged Zulu, who was max ing
show Of himself, in the Zulu tongue, and
Ound that he was rs ignorant OF the Ian
guage rs of Greek. Considerable interest
was faWakened in Barnum's heather
when IL became known to 4 limited circle
in this city that the GrOut family, who
now reside here but were long engaged in
missionary work in Africa, where the
younger members were born, would try
the Hartford experiment over again
When the Iulus were addressed in the
circus tents yesterday in their native
tongne, they not only responded readily
but were not a little pleased to find some
one to talk with them for the second time
since coming to this country. The con-
| versation became for the crowd an inter
| esting side show which was not down on
| the bills"
Barnums Greatest Show on Earth will
| visit MankatO on Thursday, July 10TH
| afternoon and evening. On the day OF
| exhibition, ladies and those who desire Il
| avoid the crowds at the ticket wagon
