and agricultural productions at the
State fhir this fall will probably hll
through on account Of the ex-
treme selfishness and stinginess Of
those (some Of whom) who are amply
able to give. Perhaps this item don't
suit some one.
Mr.. w. II. Allenbaugh started back
on visit to his old home in Illinois
last Monday where he will remain
until March. He has let the contract Of
gathering his corn crop at three cents
per bushel to Mr.. Valentine, and it is
thought by good judges that the entire
field, one hundred acres, will yield
fifty bushels per acre.
II. d. SlObber emits the following
lucid and Ineligible sentence in the
last issue of the Doodle: 1.-THE Gov
ernor tried to have Ames, higher than
Allen County, and according to the
best judgemdnt Of the "clown" the
next Representative for Allen County
will strike the elevation and Mr.. Perk-
ms will cap the climax of their Ames. !"
In response to our brother of the
Union who thinks that editorial cour-
tesy would compel him to support us
for that which report says we "hanker''
after, we would suggest that first he
await instructions from Washington.
1t is rashness to commit himself to the
support of any one unless he is sure
that the powers that dispel post Offices
would be pleased.
Under the proper heading will be
found the announcement of Mr.. J. E..
Henderson for County Superintend-
ent. Mr.. H. is well and favorably
known, and is in every respect well
qualified for the position and will have
considerable strength in the conven-
ton. He has been engaged in educa-
tional work for q number of years and
has always given the best of satisfac-
ton.
We were favored by a pleasant call
from Mr.. Gibson, of Cottage Grove
township, Wednesday. He informs
us that owing to the campaign being
so nearly closed he will not be a
candidate for county superintendent,
although urged to do so by many
friends. Mr.. G. is evidently a strong
man, and had he become a candidate
early in the season, would have given
the field lively fight.
Messrs. Waters s. Thayer are all
torn up at present as they are putting
in run of wheat burrs at their eleva-
tor mills. The Harrison Mill French
Burr is said to be one of the finest
made. As soon as they can get things
in shape, which will be next week,
these gentlemen will announce to
their customers their plans and pur-
poses. The elevator mills will be
found ready to do their share of the
business.

There yet remains to nominate a
county ticket after which the cam
paign will commence in earnest. At
the present time we would mildly
suggest that displays of temper over

statements that II will not vote 80
and SO" are slightly premature.
After the two political parties are in
battle array facing one another, and
the roar of a genuine battle is heard,
then and not till then will the people
begin to choose their ground and pre-
pare to settle with paper balls the
momentuous problems of state. Now
while the heat of summer is upon us is
really the time to try and keep
cool. We want to see the voters Ego a
fishing" now-and be on hand when
the battle actually commences.
