JOTTINGS FROM THE WEST.
FONTANELLE. IOWl

fONTANELLE, IOWA.
EDITOR CHRONICLE-It has been some
time since | have seen anything in the
good, old reliable CHRONICLE from any
point in the West-so L thought few
more items from me might be interesting
to at least, portion OF your leaders.
My winter school being out now, and
my summer term not to begin till the
21st inst, it gives me few days in
which to attend the Normal Institute in
this county, and to write short letter
for THE CHRONICLE. We are having at
present an interesting session of our Nor
NAL Institute at this pIace-though Sc
we're colds are somewhat of a hindrance
to the teachers present, from learning as
much as they otherwise would; then to
mend the matter they have the measles
along with the cold in this county, and
the two together cause a severe fever.
which seems to be uncomfortable by the
doctors. Quite number have died with
the measles in this and in Adams county.
We have had a continuous cold.
hard winter, ever since the 18th day of
last November, till about three weeks
ago, it began to let up little from which
time we have had it damp and rainy up
to the present-and of course we have
splendid roods here when we get down
through the mud to them. l used to
think, when l was a boy, from the re-
ports that came from Iowa, there never
was any mud here, but at the close of
winter, and during wet spell we have as
much mud here as any one need want.
But then in four to five DAYS after it
quits raining, the mud in the roads is
all gone-the mud not lasting as long
here as it does in old Belmont county. and
in one or two days the ground is in ample
order for plowing. But then we have a
porous subsoil similar to a sponge, which
takes up the water and holds it in reserve
and 10y process of evaporation it sends
it up to the roots of the growing crons.
and owing to this arrangement, this part
of Iowa is enabled to withstand drouth

1T is intolerable stupidity to attribute
tbs riot, as some of our contemporaries
do, to the single miscarriage of justice
in the Berner case. That, perhaps. was
the top flower of nexiOus growth of
judicial inefficiency. 1t was the growing
conviction that justice could not be ob-
tanned in the criminal courts, and that
crime had become so rampant as to i'm
peril life and property generally, that
led to the outburst of popular indigna-
tion. The burlesque of justice in the
Berner farce only deepened that c1n-
victiOn and intensified the public indig-
nation. The verdict was, as the presi-
ding Judge remarked, "a id outrage.
But it was not the first outrage; it was
the last in continued ascending series.

Farmers Club Meeting.

The Belmont Co. Club held its April
meeting in Weldays Hall on last Satur
day, and although several of the men,
bers we're absent On account of import
ant business elsewhere, the session
proved to be very interesting one, and
we trust profitable to those present. The
subject for discussion, Farm Fences, is
vital question in farm economy. Ac-
cording to the experience of most farm
ers, fencing costs more annually in time,
labor and material than all other farm
mprovements-and the subject is be-
ceming more important every year as
the country grows older, and farms and
fields are subdivided into smaller tracts,
and the land occupied by the fences
more valuable.
Mr.. Wm. Chambers was first to take
the floor on the fence question. He
spoke at considerable length, reviewing
all the different kinds Of fences in mod
ern use, and winding up in favor of
barbed wire fence, on.account of econO-
my and durability. Mr.. Chambers has
undoubtedly given the fence question
careful thought and study. Mr.. John
Watson championed the locust post and
oak board fence, Oh account Of lis neat
ness and security, although he is still
observing and investigating, in the hope
that he will yet find fence more eco
nomical and durable, and yet give the
same security as the board fence. Mr..
Amos Fawcett also strongly favored the
locust post and oak board fence, but
does not find much objection to good
hedge fence. Mr.. A. T. McKelvey spoke
in favor of hedge fence, claiming il to
be the most ornamental and durable of
all fences Gf properly trained) and at
the same time giving perfect security
against trespass by stock. Mr.. Nickel
vey also has rather good opinion of
barbed wire fence. Mr.. Joshua Worley
was strongly opposed to barbed wire
fence on account of the danger to stock,
especially horses. Mr.. Charles Troll ia
vored combination fence, composed
partly of barbed wire and partly of
boards. Paling fences seemed to have
no friends; palings were universally
condemned; nobody can climb them, but
they are sure to be kicked off by hunt
ers and trespassers. But everybody
looks forward to an ideal fence, which
has neither thorns nor barbs. and will
not rust or decay, and that will not need
trimming nor repaiIing-then, and not
till then, will the average farmer be
happy.

THE SPRING ELECTIONS.

On Monday, the elections for local Of
fcers IN the different towns and town
ships Of Ohio, passed offvery quie ly, the
results being mixed al most places. AS
usual, local issues had more to do with
the elections than politics, though some
idea of political change of sentiment
might be obtained from the aggregate
result, which as yet it is too early to OBJ
tain. What has been obtained, howev
er, show more gains for Republicans
than for Democrats.
In Columbus, the Republicans made
clean sweep, electing the entire city
ticket. obtaining control of the council
and school board. 1t is the greatest Re-
publican victory ever achieved at tn,
State Capital,
At Cincinnati the vote was very light,
but showed Republican gains. Three
tickets in the field. which complicated
matters. A portion of the Republican
nominees were elected.
At Toledo there were decided Repub.
lican gains all over the city. They elect
street commissioner over the present
Democratic incumbent.
In Cleveland, the Republicans elected
their city ticket by an average of 3.1oO
majority. The council is tie, with one
or two contests of elections. The Dem
ecrstic Mayor was elected one year ago
by $500 majority.
At Steubenville the entire Republican
ticket was elected by about 400 majori-
ty, about as usual.
Dayton elects Democratic Mayor and
city ticket. The council is a tie, and
the school board Republican.
Telsgrams from other towns show
about usual results, and that as a gener-
sl thing mixed tickets are elected.

of the Democratic Presidential nOmina-

became so generally believed that his

Congressman Paige that his father will
accept the Presidential nomination if it
is rendered him. The wonderful vigOr
which Mr. Tilden has recently developed
has evidently alarmed the Payne family.
