STIERMAN, who has ranch on
More creek, hired a countryman of
his the other day to work on his ranch
hoe potatoes and pull weeds. The
coantryman is an old pioneer of Boise
county, and has filed many places Of
the various kinds Of business in this
country-had mined, kept saloon, cut
and pulled hay-the latter, at which
he was an expert, having been in the
employ of Phil. Rant, at Star Ranch,
several years ago, and where he in
in hay-raking time, let the horses run
away with the rake, and breaking one
line, he pulled on the other, causing
the horses to make circuit of the
bav field. Finding that he could not
stop them, he turned somersalt off
the hay-rake, and ''let the cayuses
rip They finally brought up be-
tween two large pines and could go
no farther. Here the hay expert and
countryman of Stierman's, caught
and tied them fast until he could re-
lease them from the rake. This be-
inc accomplished, he took the horses
to the ranch, and, being asked if he
had got through, replied that he had;
cot his dinner and decamped for this
place. Arriving here he opens sa-
loon, and being good jovial fellow,
all the boys patronize him, and, by
"charee book" too much, be becomes
slightly involved, which, he says, gave
his creditors some uneasiness, but he
says "by Shesus it never 'droubled
him any," Closing out, he hires tc
Buzzini & Co. to attend ditch, which
place he filed to satisfaction until the
water failed, when he is employed by
Sherman. He was put to work hoe
ing potatoes and pulling weeds, ano
at the close of the second days work
Sherman thought he would go ane

along in the potatoe patch, when, tx
his surprise he found that eleven row
of potatoes had been mistaken fol

4 demonstrations expressive OF tn
same. at which his countryman be
came convinced that he was not alto
gether pleased, and he lit out for TIN

Every city in the North and West

Deputy Marshals on Tuesday, and a
large proportion of this force will
consist of desperadoes imported
from other States. To meet this
menace on the part of the enemy, it
is expect that the county and munic-
pal authorities-in most instances
Democrats-will appoint large num-
bers of deputy sherifs and special
policemen, so the chances of bloody
election fights and riots in Chicago,
Cincinnati, Detroit, Milwaukee, Bos

and Indiana every preparation TO
resist and check the Radicals in their

made, and there is no attempt to

are arming everywhere to protect
themselves against such outrages as
were perpetrated by the Federal

UNTIL after the election it will
be impossible to form any idea OF
the political effect of the decision Of
the Supreme Court of Ohio, declar-
ing the Scott law unconstitutional.
The law was a good thing in itself,
we think, as it imposed special tax
upon liquor selling as substitute
for the license fee exacted in other
States; yet, inasmuch as the con>
stitution of Ohio forbids the licens-
ing of retailers, this plan of putting
a special tax upon them was mere
subterfuge to get around the con-
stitutional provision, and was OF
course void. The decision of the
court was concurred in by three
Judges, all Democrats, and opposed
by the two Republican members OF
the land it is generally believed
that The effect will be to add largely
to the Democratic vote in the State
next Tuesday.

The Resurrection Of Hugh Me
COliOugh.

> The appointment of Hugh Nc
Cullough to be Secretary Of the
Treasury, is one of the best that has
been made for long time, and one
OF the most unaccountable if regard
ed from purtizan point of view.
Mccullough was Secretary of the
Treasury under Andrew johnson,
and was one of those who signed hc
celebrated statement that convicted
Grant oflying in the matter of the
surrender of the war Office 10 Stan
ton. After the expiration of John
sons term, Mccullough like Chase,
Seward. Browning and other promi
nent Republicans of The Lincoln
regime, was shelved politically as II
nun of liberal if not Democratic
proclivities, and has been regarded
as conservative ever since whose
sympathies were rather with the
ou 8" than the Sins" Certainly he
is anything but a friend to the Re.
publican candidate for the Presiden.
cy, and we have no idea that he will
vote for him.
The people of the South and par
ticularly of Mississippi Lave reason
to feel kindly towards Hugh McCul-
Tough, for they have not forgotten
his visit to their distinguished fellow
citizen, x-President Davis, when he
lay a prisoner in the dungeon
casemate at Fortress Monroe. II
required bravery and nerve in cab
met minister to make sach a visit in
those days, but Mccullough had
both nerve and heart and he was
to see for himself how
the fallen chieftain was faring, and
to do what he could to alleviate his
5ufferings. That visit retired him
from the world of politics,and to-day
his Resurrection and return to bis
Did portfolio is one Of the most
unexpected and incomprehensible
shings of the day.

In England there is a story cur
rent that Mrs. Langtry, when last in
New York, sent for young Ameri-
can dramatist, who had been recon-
mended as a good person to write a
play for her. He called and was
about to take a seat. Mrs. Laugtrv
entered the room. Without word
of tormality she surveyed him with "A
cold English stare, and then walked
clear around him, looking at him the
whole time. 1t was, of course, emf
nently agreeable to be surveyed like
a horse ON sale. But he stood it.
Having completed her survey, she
asked almost contemptuously, "And
do you think that you can write a
play" The author, who had made
several successes, replied in a civil
tone: swell, | don't know. | dare
say | may be about as competent to
write play as you are to act one,

New Orleans democrat.
The Chicago Times thinks there are
some very good reasons why the Soutl

see how any one can expect this Sec
tIon to desert the party that has given
1t good development.
North Carolina, for instance, is one
of the States to which the Republi.
cans have more than once put forward
a claim. But for all this, it is safely
Democratic and may be expected to
remain SO, because restoration of
the Republicans to the control OF
affairs would mean another era OF
reckless proAjgacy and extravaganza.
When North Carolina was Republi-

MERIDIAN, Miss, Oct. 2S-The
sixth annual fair of the Mississippi
stock breeders fair association open
ed to-day, but owing to the hard rain
there was a very small attendance
about twelve hundred being present.
The display of stock is very large;
the largest and finest agricultural
exhibit ever here. The purses this
season are large, and as there are
over ten racers present, fine sport
is expected. The poultry display is
not as large as last year. The domes-
tic and art departments are full. The
city is crowded with visitors, and, if
weather permitting, large attend
ance is expected the rest of the week.

Our visit to Aberdeen Fair was quite
pleasant. We had the plea ure of
meeting many of our old friends
and acquaintances.
Without exaggeration Aberdeen is
the liveliest place that we struck in
in the State, everything is on a boom.
The exhibit of stock of all kinds was
very good. The fowls embraced every
thing from the Honkong goose to
the bronze turkey. The agricultural
and horticultural exhibits as fine
as is produced in any country, Al d
everything that was exhibited in the
art department was just simply beau
tiful. Everything was kept in coed
order and the police force was prompt
and efficient.
Taken as whole the Fair was a
grand success.--Pontotoc Observer.

what a third person had told him, and
accuses Mr.. Beecher of breach of

this evening:
"BRooKLYN, Oct. %, 1884.
"Mr. joy:
"Sir-You said at your own table,
before me, that Mr.. Blaine offered to
form a committee as you desired it
provided you would take certain
bonds of his at par. You did lean
back in your chair, put your thumbs
into your vest shoulders, and add
with contempt: That's the man that
Blaine is.' | did not violate the laws
of hospitality in using the incident.
| never spoke of it publicly until
your injudicious friend, Gov. Alger,
made garbled statement, which,
under your denial, made me a false
witness. Then l was justified, in
self-defense, in making the matter
public.

remember. | do both thoroughly,
and your statement was burned into
my memory as with fire, and your
falsehood will, | fear, be burned into
your memory as with fire.
"Such ef'rontery is marvellous even
in this political campaign. DO you
dare look ex-Gov. Baldwin, of Michi-
gan, in the face, who sat next me at
your table, and deny that you made
such statement? What will he
think of you? Do you dare say that
you never made like statements of
Blaine's conduct in the transaction
alluded to to NJ. K. Smith, president
OF the Oregon Transcontinental Com
pany?

Mr.. John Harmon, of Detroit, who
was your attorney, and was conver-
SAINT with the whole matter at the
time of its happening, the correct
ness of the substance of my state

"Allow me to ask by way of re-
freshing your memory whether the
amount which Blaine required was
not nearer $4,000 than $4,000?
whether the intermediary between
Blaine and yourself was not subsidy

was not SO extreme that you would

"Mr. Joy, You have told the story
too many times and to too many peo-
pie to have made it prudent to deny
it now. The advantage which is ex-
pected from your denial can last now
but day or two; but the lie will
endure forever. 1t will abide with
