Some contemporaries think the story of
sheep being starved until they eat each 9TH
er's wool incredible, but it is not. A number
of the wool growers of this valley are cog
infant Of this fact and have seen it demon
strated during the past month.
The Musselshell fock-masters, so far as
we have been able to learn, have had re-
markable good luck with their hocks during
the three months Of severe winter just passed.
They all report light losses and their testi-
mony is coroborated bysthe mail carrier; who
says that but few dead sheep are to be seen
about their premises.
We are informed by q reliable gentleman
who made a trip through the big bottom on
Smith River from the forks to Birch Creek
that he did not find more than a dozen dead
animals and they were mostly calves dropped
since the fall round up, as they were not
branded. There were q few yearlings and
he noticed one three year old heifer that had
sucked a calf, and one COW fifteen years
old. This seems almost incredible after the
stories we have heard about there being near
II 5000 head congregated there which were
dying so rapidly, yet it is true. He says the
loss Of sheep does not show 50 lightly as he
noticed a number Of piles Of dead ones on
Birch creek.

Of the bastion where Botzaris fell, the sculp-
tor deserted the young Greek. "Methought
/ saw her thrill at the sight Of her creator 9
generation ago. The next moment he gave
vent to a CRY Of rage and despair. The statue
wasabroken; the right hand smashed ; the
pointed finger gone. The face was mutilated
like the visage Of its model, as struck BY her
brutal protector. Rowing tourists-English
among the number-had defaced the pedes-

David never fully recovered from the stroke,
and returned soon afterwards to bis native

of the outrage inflicted by those barbarians.
Alas! for our shattered idols! These bar

The Truth OF History,

Mr.. EDToR:-l wish through the
columns of your paper to call the
attention of the inhabitants of La
fayette county, and especially those
who have been subscribers for the
history of Lafayette county, to some
most tlagrant, unjust and false state
ments made in that so-called history
On page Al, 9Th paragraph, these
words appear: The order was then
given to advance at full speed, but
nine fell back II will be seen bv
the reading above that this means
nine of the volunteers fell back and
refused to 60 in pursuit of the In
dams who had killed Apple and
which pursuit led to the battle Of
the Pecatonica. | was one of the
volunteers upon that occasion, and
participated III the pursuit and in
the battle, and have no hesitation in
denouncing this statement as being
wholly false, and mean SANDER
upon as brave and determined a set
of men as ever went into any Indian
engagement,
General Dodge in reporting this
battle said: The volunteers uLder
my command on this occasion acted
with great gallantry and bravery. L
could make no distinction"
Every man was eager for the chase.
and one poor fellow Samuel Clack
went into the pursuit with strong
presentiment that he would be killed.
and most unfortunately was killed.
The battle took place forty-nine
years ago, and this is the first intima-
ton that any one has ever had that
any cowardice was shown upon that
occasion.
On page 40, the troops were at
Fort Winnebago under orders to re-
treat to General Atkinson on Rock
River. In the 10th line Of the second !
paragraph this language appears: |
"On proposing to return to the main |
body, much rebellious discussion
was aroused, as the men, one and all |
were opposed to the snail-like pro-
gress of the regular army, preferring |
to march to the head-waters of Rock
River, in the hope of overtaking and
the Indian chief.

A Word About the Fairs.

The Western Rural annually takes
occasion to urge upon the public the
necessity of a generous support of
the fairs. 1t would be difficult TO
estimate the great good which has
resulted from the agricultural fair,
and so good a school for the farming
community, and such an excellent
means of advertising the merits OF
states and counties, deserves the cor
dial and substantial commentator
of everybody. If the fair is prop
erly managed it cannot but prove
beneficial, and probably will prove
satisfactory. But if it is not prop
erly managed, nothing is gained by
our going off in huff and refusing
to support it. If the management
Is not proper one, have it changed,
but do not forget that q man who
refuses TO have anything to do with
fair, has no right to say whether
the management is proper one or
not. Sometimes, too, it may be pos
sible that our own judgment as to
the efficiency of the fair officers is
not infallible. We ought not to for
get that judgments differ, and that
the officers of our agricultural soci-
cites may honestly reach conclusions
which seem preposterous to lis. At
all events we should have plenty of
charity. 1t is not the easiest or
most desirable position in the world
to be an officer on the fair grounds,
and a few kind words and a cordial
support will do a great deal more
than harsh words or remaining away
entirely will do. 1t is the duty of
every farmer to support his state and
county fairs. The whole family
should SO, help and all. Have a
holiday, and pay your twenty-five
or fifty cents heartily, believing that
you are encouraging a good thing.
We are interested in every fair in
the west, and the Rural stands ready
to do anything it can to aid any fair,
great or small, if it is properly
handled. We earnestly hope that
we shall have fine weather during
the fair season, and that all our fairs
will be successful. The manage
ment of the Chicago fair, with its
princely premium list and liberality
in other ways, is certainly laying the
foundation for excellent success. 1t
required great deal of capital to in
augurate an enterprise of this char
acter, but these gentlemen are pos
sessed of the capital and are putting
it out. 1t is scarcely probable that
the enterprise will pay its proprie-
tors anything at present, at least, and
50 they are really deserving of great
credit. Let them be supported roy
ally all over the country.-Western
Rural.

The latest news received from Wash

The latest news received from Wash
ington up to the hour of going to
press, shows that the Presidents condi-
ton has slightly improved during the
past twenty-four hours. Gloomy re-
ports were sent out early on Wednes-
day morning. stating that no improve
ment could be noted in the President,
and that the symptoms were still grave.
Later and more favorable reports were
sent out at a. m. AT . p. m. DR..
Bliss came from the patients room,
and before leaving the mansion he said
that the President had taken nourish-
ment twice since the midday dressing
of the wound.
"A Washington special says the morn
ing examination of the wound was
conducted to-day by DR.. Agnew. 1t is
reported to be in good condition, and
the flow and quality of puss satisfac-
tory considering all the circumstances.
The patient said the manipulation
caused him very little uneasiness.
Special care was taken to ascertain if
any signs of blood-poisoning existed.
None were found.
Secretaries Window, Kirkwood, and
Lincoln arrived at the White House at
s o'clock this morning. They were
very sad and depressed, scarcely ex-
changing word until they had passed
into the cabinet room. After hearing
morning bulletin read and talking with
the surgeons, they left, showing no
signs of encouragement. Secretary
Kirkwood said: "The best we can say
is. there is still hope. The President is
certainly no worse"
An enormous number of dispatches
were received and answered by the
Presidents secretaries this morning
They came from every section of The
country.
The Dubuque papers of this, Thurs
day, morning. contain encouraging re-
ports of the Presidents condition.
