seated themselves around a little
table, "yes, sir, We do things on

out in the spring and plough q
straight fnrrow until fall. Then he
turned around end harvested back.
We have some big farms mp there,
gentlemen. A friend of mine owned
one on which he had to give a mort
gage, and the mortgage was due on
one end before they could get it re
corded at the other. You see it was
laid off in counties"
There was a murmur of astonisil-

SENSIBLE Resolutions.

Passed by the Linn county Busi-
ness Council.
Resolved, That this Council is
pleased to hear that the Albany
Farmers Company proposes to
place in their warehouses at Albany
sufficient number Of run of burrs'
70 grind all the wheat stored with
them, and believing that the build
ing of such Touring mills is of great
benefit to the producers of this
county. and to our people at large
we extend TO this Company our
hearty support.
WHEREAS, The newspapers gen.
e,ally throughout this county have
been in the habit during political
campaigns Of publishing unbecoming
and wholly uncalled for statements
against the private character of the
nominees Of either political party,
and as we believe such conduct is
prejuiicial to the morals of the peo-
pie and beneficial to none, therefore,
be it
ResoIoe9, That it is the sense of
this Council that all slandercus and
indecent documents should be re-
fused publication, and the Council
respectfully requests the newspaper
proprietors to refrain from giving
them place in their papers.

A Wild Woman In the Woods.

A Frenchman who recently visited
a place called Bears swamp, near
Stamford, Vermont, on hunting ex-
pedltion, tells the following story,
and the marks on his face to some ex-
tent corrobate,l his statements:
Altering travelling about the
woods, with varying success, for
about half an hour, the hunter was
startled by Sudden noise in the
thicket near by, seeing a strange APP
partition, which he at first sight i'm
agined was a bear, he started OIL a
run for the nearest tree. A Wild.
maniacal laugh greeted him, and the
black, hairy creature disappeared,
walking, as, he thought, on its hind
legs. The sound emitted from the
creatures lungs led the hunter to be-
lieve that it was something other
than bear, and mastering as much
courage as he could command, he
started to investigate. lie had gone
but a short distance into the brush
when he caught sight of the black
figure leaning over spring and
drinking, its back toward the hunter.
The time had arrived for action, and
throwing away his gun the man
rushed to the creature, clasping his
arms around what proved to be the
waist of q woman, perfectly nude

hot and flushed with the haste he had
made.
"Where is she?"
"Where is who?" cried Kate.

As he spoke ht jerked The bell cord

Mr.. Meredith uttered an exclama-

"Why, it is Martha Meredith"

Philadelphia"
And he clasped her in his arms
with shower of kisses which made
honest Toms hair stand ON end.
81 wish she was my cousin from

Kate turned as scarlet as pepper

'"Oh, good gracious i" she cried,

OUR MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT,

We take this occasion, on the eve of the
CharlestoWn corporation election, to briefly
refer to proposed change in our nuaieipal
COVE fsaent which We have thought of for
como hme-a change which We are sure will
commend itself to our people, and which we
hope, as the proper time, will be adopted.
What We desire is, to have our corporation
election annually-tho term of Office of the
Mayor and Recorder to be reduced 10 one
year, and that of councilmen to remain ,vo
years as at present. With the Counciluen
however, We would have only ons elected
from each ward sunuslly, leaving, a. each
election, one experienced Coane:lmap hold
ing over. This system will rid our elections
ct combinations that may be formed Is the
charter now stands, and we are sure will
prove more satisfactory in every respect
We do not propose to discuss the matter now,
however, but only refer to it that our citizens
may think it over. Before the meeting of
the next Legislature, which would have to
make the change, should one be effected we
may have something more to say about it.
The above is from the Spirit of Jefferson
of May 18th, 1880. The same subject has
been recently e1toneively discussed by m.ny
OF our best citizens, and the above and other
sa!utary amendments to our CORPORATION
eh'rtsr, it is thought, ought to be mads by
the Legislature at its present session. For
instance, it is universally conceded that the
paying ct taxes being prerequisite to voting,
they should be made payable at some reason.

thought that, 40 it is done 10 many other

may bs found who will be willing to serve the
public in the capacity of Mayor or Counoil>
men without pay, and that salaries for these
positions should be prohibited-thereby Civ
ing two hundred dollsrs more to the public
treasury, which may be used in lighting tho
town, building sidewalks, or some other good
purpose We call public attention to these
mat'ers now because. if anything is to be
done BY the present Legislature, prompt &C..

WILL in our next issue, publish call for
public town meeting, to get the matter in
shape for Legislative action. Let Us hear
from our citizens in regard to it.
