Thursday evening, Dec. 10th, the
ladies of the NJ. T.. Church will give a
supper at Spring Branch for the bene-
fit of the Rev. Mr.. Langdon, who has
so faithfully ministered to them mt Dia-
mond and Valley churches. Come
one, come all ,..... Well, if that Thanks
giving turkey and cranberry pie have
digested properly, you will doubtless
be hunting around to find some thing
to fill up the dear old REGISTER for
this week.. DOdson Matthews has
moved back to Moran. He must be
getting used to moving, and when the
new railroad comes through Deer
Creek township we will look for him
back again ....... Mr.. Willie Matthews
is again living on the old home farm.
We are glad to welcome them back.
Mrs. Matthews is quite an addition to
our singing society, being a "HOst in
herself' where musical talent is scarce,
Hope they have come to stay.......M Mr..
Henry Snyder is at last permanently
occupying his new home. MIR. ORA
goo lost his best horse q few nights
ago, it choked itself with the halter.
The efforts to assist him to purchase
another was move in the right di-
rection, and the amount would doubt
less have been doubled, but that tax
paying time is OH hand ........I hope
every taxpayer will remember how
hard it is to raise our present assess
ment when he comes to vote railroad
bonds. We think that every man in
this township who votes for these
bonds ought to have to swear and
prove that he is bona fide tax payer
before he is allowed to help bind a bur-
den for the shoulders of his neighbors.
......... The protracted meeting at La
grand closed last Sunday. There were
some accessions but We have not learn
ed the exact number...... Rev. Mr..
Langdon, of Colony, breaches every
second Sunday at Diamond ........ We

THERE is great deal of silly talk in
some of the papers about there being
"Only one life between the gov.
eminent and anarchy" AS the Globe
Democrat well says there are million
lives between the government and an
archy. The American people are not
barbarians only waiting for the shad-
ow OF an excuse to lay violent hands
upon the social and political structure.
II President Cleveland should die to-
morrow, government securities would
not.be worth dollar less than they are
to-day. Person and property would be
just as secure as they are to-day and
business would go on as usual. The
people are the government. America
is not Spain.
