Our Crop Reports,

We give below the first crop report
we think ever published for this coun-
~, at least it is the first the present
editor of the TINES has any knowledge
Of. We do not give it because it is a
long report and one that will place Us
in the front rank" as an agricultural
county, but because it shows that a
beginning has been made the results
Of which may yet lead to that stand
ard. 1t shows that a few sturdy pio-
neers have decided to subdue our for
ests and turn the barrens into a flow
ering garden.
For this report we are indebted to
to Mr.. Thomas Doherty, one of the
four brothers who took the lead in es-
tablishing the Poplar River settlement
which at the beginning Of the second
year makes a good showing. Other
sections of the county is being settled
up with good solid farmers and five
years from now crop report for

Mr.. Dalrymple and several other
capitalists were in our city again this
week for a day or two, and looked
over several very fine business sites.
As they did not not see fit to tell Us,
we cannot tell our readers what they
are planning to do, but as they are very
extensive wheat growers and wheat
dealers, we guess that what they want
Is elevator room and very likely room
for a large Touring mill also. That
these gentlemen are going to baye lake
facilities OF their own there IS not a
doubt, and the only question is
whether we can induce them to 10
cate at Superior, or whether we will
let them 60 to some other port.

tA4N ASA-iAA@ti-I ~ ~ NtN gnu now
on the eventful day teachers, scholars
and parents congregated in the school
under feelings Of deep interest in the
proceedings. At the end of the north
school room there was Il low platform
for the accommodation of the child
rem, ii was furnished with a piano and
decorated with flowers and wreaths
of evergreen andwas surmounted with
a NV elcome" embossed in large gilded
letters. Along the walls there were
suspended in continuous double rows
the writing books and written exer-
cises Of the pupils, with many maps
of the states etc, drawn by them.
The programme comprised an En-
trance March aud Opening chorus, a
variety Of recitations, instrumental
solos, Duets and trios, singing solos
and choruses, characteristic songs and
dramatic recitations, essays, drill and
Calisthenic exercises by the juniors.
The children were marshalled in an
adjoining room, and marched to the
platform as their pieces required; they
numbered about ninety and though
sometimes they al appeared on the
platform, they entered, took their ap-
propriate positions, and retired with
the utmost precision. Their nice tidy
personal appearance, and their quiet,
satisfied, beaming cheerfulness was
good to look upon.
The liberality Of few gentlemen
enabled the Sisters to bestow con-
siderable number Of rewards of merit
There were three gold medals, six sill
yer medals, gold and silver cross,
a gold pen and a variety Of books.

THE CITY PoSTOFFICE.

IT is difficult TO understand the Demo.
cratic process of reasoning by which the
District of Columbia is made exempt from
the declarations of Republicans and DEM
ocrats before the election, that Territorial
offices should be filled by citizens of the
Territory. 1t is still more difficult to I'M
derstand how the Washington City Post
office is rendered particularly open to con-
test from all sections of the country.
Mr.. Congcr has performed his duties
and discharged his great trusts with emil
ncnt satisfaction to the people of this Dis
trct. But if President Cleveland should
deem it advisable to have n change o.
postmaster here, we cannot appreciate the
claim Of certain politicians that the post
Office at Washington belongs to the Demo
Gratis of Michigan because the present in
cumbent is the son of Senator from
Michigan. such logic as that would set
the pyramids OF Egypt in the midst of the
Caspian Sea and turn Gibraltar into q frog
Iond.
The census of 1885 shows that Washing
ton has Il population of over 100000 poo-
pie, an increase of p 300 in five years. Its
interests have grown TO be of great local
concern. lis citizens have large invest
mcnts in its future and while they are
proud Of the patcinal Government which
guards and aids it, they know that its in
ierests disconnected from the National
Government are now of sufficient im-
poItance to cntitlc them to a voice in the
management of local affairs. This would
seem to be fair equitable and reasonable
request
The City Postoilcc of Washington is
pre-emincntly local institution. ltdeals
directly with the people Of this city, and
although it incidentally handles Govern
mcnt mailits prime purpose and great duty
is to accommodate the citizens of Washing
ton. And nonresident Democrat, have
no more right In the Washington Post
office than lIobokcn man would have

that she had tho customary headache, and
begged Mr.. Thomas to hang outa sign at
the box-ollicc. The cowboys wouldn't
have it. Headaches didn't count i'm New
Mexico. There would be q performance
OF there would be death in the operate
world.
1t was q supreme moment for Mr..
Thomas but suddenly, as if acting by
inspiration, he directed his famous or
chestra to strike up the beautiful melody of
Home, Sweet Home" that the cowboys
might be touched by some rare old strain
of other DAYS. The cowboys demmrcd.
They had heard Home, Sweet Home"
before and they didn't like it. The hotel
keeper nj Coolidge had hired a fresh young
woman to play that tune at meal time on
the catarrhal old piano of his caravansary
for the express purpose Of taking away
their appetite. Hence they notified Mr..
Thomas that they were "way up" on
"Homc Sweet Home and it wouldn't
go down no longer"
Mr., Thomas gazed meditativcly along
the barrels of several coldlool<ing re.
volvers and begged pardon for suggesting
a tune so utterly at variance with the
wishes of his audience. lie then an
nounccd that if the gentlemen didn't see
what they wanted they couldas for it,"
The audience promptly sent up u request
for "rhe Arkansaw Traveller" The
musicians fairly laid themselves out in
response and were greeted by umults of
applause.
The cowboys then turned thcirattention
TO Nine. Matcrna She implored, but the
audience was incXorablc and gave thcg good
lady but five seconds TO do the agreeable
or perish on the spot 1t only took one
fifth of that time for Madame to Jnake up
her mind. She cleared her throat, threw
her head back, and was just on the point
OF letting down the bars for Comm Thro'
the Rye when the cowboys caught sight
of the Chorus With q wild yell of sur
prise and despair the gentle dcnizens of
the plains rushed from the cars, fired a
volley in the air and fled forever from
the confines Of civilization.
Colonel Maplcson will learn from this
that prima donnas travelling through the
West should have hollow square of
chorus singers as q body guard. If this
doesn't drive the cowboys into a zcrcba
deeper than any canon, then the lesson of
Theodore Thomas at Coolidge is failure.
The Washington critic., 1885-05-28
THE MILLENNIUNI.

in former times it seemed weird, ghostly
and almost prctcrnatural to speak of the
millennium with any degree Of confidence
in its realization. There was something
about all faith in the end of the world
that savored of the unattainablc and
always reminded the practical man of
dog baying at the silver moon.
But times have changed. The con
science fund Of the Treasury is growing
like Georgia watermelon. Carl SChurz
is willing to state publicly that the South
crn people have at last given up all hope
of another rebellion. Mr.. Randall has
decided not to be a candidate for Speaker
of the House. John Roach will make the
Dolphin float or break hamcstring. And
two pensioners have voluntarily notified
the Government that they are no longer
entitled to pensions.
After this, there is no room to doubt the
coming of the millennium. When such
things be, and overcome MS like n summer
cloud, the day of angelic hosts is near at
hand.
