the men arose from the table and re-

the stolen horses.
They Were indeed beauties as had

After they had looked the animals
well over and admired their good points,
and praised them SO highly that had
the horses been able to understand the
meaning Of what they heard, unless
they were UNUSUALLY modest horses they
must have grown eXceednglyyain over

Bill, leaning against the side of the
stable, preached the subject uppcrmost
in his mind.

After awhile, startled by slight
noise. he suddenly raised his head,
grasped his gun and gazed quickly about
him. Seeing only black squirrel hasti-
" scrambIing up Il tree few rods from
him. and correctly attributing the sound
that disturbed him to the little animal
rustling among the leaves, he resumed
his former attitude. and again took up
his sOliloqly:

With these words he arose from the
log. threw his gun over his shoulder
and started at a quick pace toward the
stream of water flowing from the
| swamp.
The flowing Waterquckly obliterated
his tracks upon the bottom, and after
walking in this way three or fourmileS,

Editors Herald:
We hasten to correct that which the
readers of your paper viii ignorantly
accept as fact. That is the report OF
Watermaster Winder in Sundays issue
with regard to the inhabitants of the
dry Bench receiving q daily supply of
water. 1t is far from being correct.
This morning (Monday) the water
made its appearance for the first time
for nearly two weeks. How is thatfor
a daily supply? What is the motive
in giving such unqualified statements to
the public? Can it be to make the
public believe we are set of grumblers
and have no just cause for our COM
plant?
We know nothing of the quality nor
quantity of water obtained by tunneling
in Dry Canyon, but we do know If all
the waters of this canyon are in the
fumes the quality cannot be as stated
There is something more the public
that is exhibiting currants, peaches,
at the expense of hundreds of
sufferers is very small business, and
is an index to the character of such par
ties, and warns us to keep them at arms
length. The gentleman that raised such
remarkable corn had better drop the
brush and go to raising; we think he
would not be so anxious to exhibit the
product of the dry bench, especially in
an ordinary season when water is less
plentiful. 1t should be known, this per-
son, with others, have good wells on
their lots, and can laugh at our calamity.
(How one neighbor loves anotherO II
this season Is anything like the last
twelve years that have past, we shall be
more without water than with 1t for the
next seven months, instead OF daily
supply" The articles above mentioned
were grown on the north bench water
ing time, less than one-half minute
to the square rod; some persons have
wonderful method of their own, growing
such wonderful things on such limited
water time. There is something wrong
in Denmark, and the wrong will be
righted ere long. There is not more
than third of the land below the top
ditch under cultivation; we pity the
corn growers whenthe other two-thirds
are brought into use, without we have
better water supply, which we hope we
shall have. Yours respectfully,
SYMPATHY.

You never knew of good carpenter
or an artisan in wood take green lum-
Der, OF young green stick or sappling,
and put it into the construction of
building, or use it in his trade or busi-
ness, but he first uses the appliances
the kiln-to thoroughly dry it and
after it becomes well seasoned, then it
is of utility and advantage. And so ii
is, / should think, with a professional
man; the raw, crude, inexperienced
lawyer, or the lawyer who has con-
stantly dabbled in the field of politics
and always on the run for Office, bis
mind is only equal to and like green
lumber, unfit for anything until pre-
pared, well seasoned, by close, diligent,
plodding study; and knowledge, like
lumber, ought never to be used until
well seasoned.

EDS. CITIZEN Can you explain
why the Eagle in its frantic efforts
to boost an incompetent man for Judge,
deems it necessary Gas recommends
tion) to parade his record in the army
before the people, while the same pa
per pitches into Judge McJ unkin and
takes him to task for appointing and
retaining as Court Stenographer man
who enlisted when mere boy, fought
(as they are compelled to admit) gal
lantly through the war for the Union
and left an arm upon the battlefield ?
Not only this, but he was the first and
only applicant from the county for the
position, and so far as the writer knows
the only man in the county competent
to fill the position. Why then the in
consistency, the army record of one
mau to be used to help put him in
a position, even his friends admit him
incompetent to fll, while the army re-
cord of an other man must be overlook
ed, ETC., in order to prejudice the COM
munity against Judge McJunkin The
feweln consistency seems to be want
ing in the composition of the editors of
the "Buzzard" Perhaps the editors
are angry because the Stenographer
draws larger pension than their deli
cate looking little pensioner candidate,
who button-holes everybody to vote for
him for Judge. "Old Robinson Cru
soe," who wasn't on an island during
the war, but might as well have been
as to have been moving from Penn tp.,
to the borough of Butler, continually
changing his residence about the time
of the draft (as was then currently re-
ported) is now very loud in behalf of
the soldier; provided, their widows do
not interfere with he or his family get
ting post Offices, etc, or their brothers
interfere with his being attorney for
the Commissioners, position every
body knows he is incompetent to fill.
Let the people see to it that political
tricksters do not get control of their

A NEW way to get case continued,
that You do not want to try, is to find
some objection to the manner in which
the jury wheel has been filed. Court
was compelled to discharge all jurors,
witnesses and parties and adjourn the
Court this week, simply because the
attorney of defendant, who did not
want the case against him. tried, made
an objection to the manner in which
the jury wheel had been filled. By
consent of the parties any trial could
60 on, and any such defectbe thus cured,
but if objected to, the only thing the
Court can do is to adjourn the court.
The attorney acting in this way should
be made pay the costs the county has
been put to. The Court in this instance
was in no manner to blame.

EDS. CITIZEN The. candidates for
the respective Offices are just new do
ing considerable button-holing and i'm
ploring the good people to give them a
vote. What fine, jolly seekers for the
sweet public patronage some of them
are.
1t is, however, true that some Offices
of trust must he sought by personal
canvass. But for the life of me I fail
to apprehend how candidate for the
position of Judge should be riding over
the county like Constable for a town
ship Office.
This is an age of intelligence and en-
lightenment and citizens who enjoy the
electoral franchise are surely able and
qualified to decide for themselves as to
the fitness and the competency of the
candidates for the important position
of Judge. The Office of Judge is in
deed an important one, and should be
filled by one learned in the law, who
has acquired knowledge and wisdom
by close st1dy for years at the practice
of the law. / think this important Of
flee should not be made matter of
politics alone; and it is to the interest
of every honest and intelligent citizen
who is desirous to have secured to him
