by the way Is one Of the best in the

Rev. w. r. Allen started yesterday

IS. Widchell, who has been visiting in

turn to Illinois.
j. f. Kelley, the retiring local editor

I. Z. Dixson, Superintendent of the
Phillips county poor farm, brought US
in sample of wheat five feet high, and
rye six feet and ten inches. 1t is we'll
headed, thus showing that the poor
farm does't bear any paupers. 1t is
producing some big crops that are in
no sense poor.
D. Il. Laird who bought the Mellow
ell sheep, has moved them to Whitfield,
Graham county, where he is holding
them with the herd of r. G.. Davis,

Our Long Island correspondent re-
fers to the drowning of young man
from near that place in the mill pond
at Almena. We believe his body has
not yet been found. Mr.. StinsOn who

suit also brought US IL report Of the sad
occurrence.
We notice that many fields of fall
wheat have great amount of rye in
chem. II allowed TO remain it will re-
81 II r
Is cents per bushel. If that is the case
and some make the depreciation still
greater, IL seems to us that no better
thing could be done than to cut the rye
out, which could .be done by a man
from two to four acres per day accord
ing to the amount of the rye Farmers
would do we'll to figure on it.
So many people have been getting
married of late up in the Long Island
country, and the boys so accustomed
TO bell them that they tried il on MIR.
Mischke. who had been married for
two years, and did not take kindly to
that kind of foolishness Unit him. "
Hence some arrests and criminal pros
ecutions, some costs and good deal of
trouble.
J. o. Dean was out to NJ. Rooney's
place, three miles north of town, Tues-
day to set up Irvine binder which
Young & Co. had sold Mr.. R., and re-
ports small grain on his place the best
he has ever seen, and Mr.. Rooney as
good q farmer as can be found any
where. These are deserved compli-
ments as every one knows who is ac-
quainted with the man or his work.
Ross DeArmond, who has been con-
nected with the HERALD force for near
~ a year past, has gone to Orleans,
Nebraska, where he accepts position
on the Harlan County Press. Ross is a
good boy, has made many friends dur
ing his sojourn here, and we hope that
none Of the fair maids of Orleans will
capture him, for the sake of one he has
left behind.
Yes, Mr., Blaine is tattooed. So was
Garfield; so was Abraham Lincoln. So
has been almost every man whom the
American people have learned to ad-
mire, TO trust aAd to love, AS soon as
any man gains public confidence. malig-
nant and envions creatures are found to
Tevile him. George Washington was
called traitor to his country after he
had secured its ndependence.-N Y.
Tribune
The democrats never can forgive
Logan for resigning a seat in Congress,
when backed by 10000 majority, to take
the uncertain and dangerous place OF
Colonel in the Federal army. So they
are puzzled now TO know why q man st
for the highest place in the nation
should consent TO take lower position.
Self sacrifice for the cOuntry's good is
hard doctrine for democrat to under.
