Owing to the demand for The
Democrat of late Icing greater than
our supply of papers, we have been
unable to send it to some of our reg
ular exchanges. Notwithstanding the
fact that we increased our issue each
week, we were still little short.
Those who should have received the
paper and failed to do 50 will un-
derstand the cause. We will see to
it that enough Democrats to go
around are printed i'll the future. And
by the way. at our present rate OF
increase The Democrats subscription
list will reach fifteen hundred before
many months.

j. Brooks, with a gang OF eight
men, on Wednesday commenced the
construction of new stock-yards at the
depot in this city. They are located
on the west side of the track. opposite
the water tank, and will be 64xl04 feet
with an eight-foot alley running to the
loading shute. The yards will be

grouL |, so that they can be washed out
and easily kept clean. The north enc
of the two pens nearest the freight
house will be rooted, and the railroad
company will put i'll new set OF
scales at the entrance on the west plat
form, where stock will be weighed
before going into the yards for ship,
ment. The yards will be very con-
venient for handling all kinds of live
stock, and the nuisance of driving
horses and cattle across the track tC
load, after being weighed. will be en-
tirely done away with. After these
yards are completed, Mr.. Brooks will
give the round-house 4 new roof and
tank, and the machine shops will be
re-shingled and probably re-modeled
1t is most likely the round-house will
have two stalls added to it.-Tribune.
