the Burnt river road, en- route for
Cheyenne. They WERE al! fine, fat

they are scarcely missed in that
county. A stream of water between
three and four yards wide rms past
the ReveiNe office. When the van
guard came to this little stream
they halted, obstinately refusing to
cross over. The sheep in the rear
keeps marching up until the road
was full, every space being occupied
by a sheep. 1t was a pretty sight.
The herders, by riding in amongst
them, finally succeeded in making
those in front jump across; and for
about half hour the air was full of
sheep-almost every sheep in the
bard leaping over the little stream

Candidate for the legislature

Col. J. j. Haden, Of Mexico addressed
the citizens of Vandalia at the sciooi
house last Friday night, and announced
himself a candidate for the legislature.
He introduced his remarks by saying that
he had always believed and still believed
that vandalia would one day be the coun-
tv-seat of a prosperous and fertile county
ue announced himself a candidate subject
to a fair expression of the democratic
marty. He was not subject to the'usages"
of the party, for he thought the
had been bad, and advised the taking on
of any mans head who announced HILL
self subject to such "usages," ana 10 re-
gard it suspiciously. That our pohtlcs
had been run as a close corporation
There was a charmed circle into WHICH
only now and then an outsider was alio"-
ed to enter, and then only for the 1urther-
ance of the interests of the corporation
That there had not been an expression o.
the party in ii years, during WHICH III
had been in the county. He approved In
manner of nominating the ticket last cleo
ton, but said it wa not carrieo ou' Il
Mexico, and that at that time there wa
no fair expression of opinion as petwee
+ candidates. He made no personal attac
| upon present oficials-in fact, u n
, county could claim better ones. he oe
sired to attack system, not officers. VIM
the "close corporation" had given US goo
officers in the past, it would not contlnu
e SO to do. He brought up historyto prov
e that it lead to thievery and speculation
e He wanted a change. While there wei
good men in office there were Just as GOO
ones ont He said he hadn't intended
allow his name to 60 before any CONVEX
ton. He wanted a 'fair expression
