peoples fingers to "haul their chestnuts
ont Of the fire" quite long enough. The
people as whole are honest and it only
remains for them to attend the caucuses
and express their will to weed out the
despicable methods that have heretofore
been patent in the politics of the terri
tory. It is right the people have, to
say who shall serve them, and they are
fast developing disposition to exercise
that right. The farmers of the territory,
who have the only great interest at stake
here, can control the next legislature
and secure such legislation as will ad.
vance their best interests. They must
select honest men, however, and those
who cannot be bought and sold to &C.
complish it.

The Success OF the Age.

No invention of modern times has
met with more ready and emphatic IN
dcrsement from the people than has
been accorded to Horns wire fence
lock. Everywhere It is being received
with satisfaction and profit, not only by
the farmers, who demand it as an i'm
portant auxiliary to success, but also
by the men of enterprise and keen
business perceptions who see N 1t the
grandest opportunity for investment of
capital and the successful employment
of energy and talent that has yet been
offered. We have yet 70 hear of a
single man who has invested in it, eth
er Tor its utility or as business enter
prise, who has not been pleased and
gratifed with the results. The most
prudent and careful farmers in our
county have put it on their farms, and
our shrewdest business men are tuylng
territory in this and Other states in the
tull assurance of reaping rich returns.
The Johnston Bros, who are introdu
cling the in, ention here, are well known
to our people as me1 of sound business
qualifications, and they command the
confidence of the public.-Sentinel

Queen City Items.
QUEEN CITY, Feb. IS,

QUEEN CRY, Feb.I3.
Last Sunday, the nth inst, there
was sad occurrence in our town. In
the afternoon, Miss Z. Rhodes and a
young gentleman were walking along
the railroad near the depot. The
hand-car came along and the hands
gave the alarm. The youngsters
looked around and saw the car COM
ing; the young man got off the track
in ample time, but the young lady ex-
ercised more leisure and had just got
out side the track and the Ger caught
her clothing, throwing her down and
dragging her about a rod. She was
seriously hurt, and taken to her moth
er's home near town. and at present
writing we are informed that her lie is
IN precarious condition, as she has
received internal injuries that may
prove fatal. An axiom, "be careful
how you walk on railroads"
Weather gloomy and trade only
moderate in our town.
Its painful to witness the ignorance
and viciousness that congregate at
some country "hoe-downs,' where bad
whiskey and free fights have direful re-
suits. Good citizens are indignant az
such occurrences. In some localities
along the Charlton rlver, intellectual
and moral attachments nave a preca-
rious existence. The only safe solu-
ton is, give them plenty of bad whisky
and ammunition and they will engender
a destroying element TIA! will rid the
country OF their presence.
Messrs. ]. Hill. James Fugate, J..
Payton and J. Mills, citizens OF Queen
City and vicinity, all possess genuine
glow Of sunshine IN their faces, and are
preparing to start soon for the land of
many promises, and will take in Mon

Something New.

We take pleasure in calling the at
tention of our readers to an advertise
ment of a New Fence Lock in this IS
sue. We have examined model Ct
this surprisingly simple yet very effect
i've device and find that 1t is really
something deserving attention. 1t
does away with the old stake and rider
arrangement, saves rails and makes a
fence that can neither be thrown doSn,
pushed over or washed away by floods.
Messers Gill & Lemon at the City Ho-
tel, have the fence or exhibition. Call
and see them. This device is highly
commended by scores of farmers who
have tired it. Read the advertise
ment.

Lost His Bed.

A gentleman living not a thousand
miles from Krksville, stopped over
night at the North Missouri.
Some time in the night he arose and
LETT his room, but having no light
could not find his way back. Stumbling
into an unoccupied bed room he con-
Guided to make himself comfortable,
and was soon sound asleep. Some
time later his companion who occupied
the first room with him, woke up and
finding his roommate gone without
his wearing apparel. at once raised the
alarm. A general search was institu-
ted. but for quite while without re-
suit and fears were entertained that
the missing guest had wandered away
or fallen into some well. Finally a
second search upstairs revealed the
missing man sound asleep and of
course unconscious of the sensation he
had created.
