For Chairman Of the County Court.
We learn that our friend James
M. Grisham is a candidate for
chairman of the Washington
county court at the approaching
January term. Who may be the
other candidates We do not know,
but with disparagement to none
we make free to say that, to our
mind, NO better selection could be
made than make Jim chairman.
His qualifications are good. and
when we recall his sudden and to-
tai losses by the fire of last Au-
gust, the manliness with which he
bore his hardships. and the steady
struggle he has made to maintain
his large family it seems to us that
his fellow men will concede that
he has claims on their sympathies
as well as ON their Judgment. He
will make q good chairman, Will
devote himself to the duties Ofhis
Office and the public welfare, and
we doubt not that he would more
than earn every cent of the small
salary attached to the office
small though it be doubtless a
considerable item with him in these
days of his second struggle to es-
tablish himself in life.
1t is proper that we should say
that this article is not in any sense
a puff, but a genuine, unsolicited
tribute to one whose manly bear
Ing under misfortune has won for
him the respect of all. Pluck in
misfortune commends itself to the
hearts of all men.

The harvest has made fine progress in

or five days the weather being of the
most favorable character. The winter
wheat is about all cut and stacked. In
yield and quality the crop will be reduc-

based upon appearances three weeks ago,
the result of rust and other causes. The
failure in winter wheat has been mostly
in the red winter, the white winter gen.
orally turning out well. The barley
harvest is now in progress, and few more
good days will be sufficient to secure the
crop in good condition. Some pieces are
discolored but for the most part the crop
