For fear that the friends of
Sheriff Rowland imagine that our
hint as to the uncourteous conduct
of officials, last week, was intend
ed for him we will state that he
was not at all in our minds eye
when the article referred to was
penned. He is making a good Of
Dor, and no citizen of the county

The young ladies of our village
had quite an interesting fishing

man is one of Valley Springs
choicest young men, and the young
ladies all appreciate his presence.
Look out Sam, they might trap
you.
The mother of our Sheriff,
Grandma Rowland, is in usual

Our lower bridge waa swept

itants of the 'half-acre' use a boat
three times a day. A good sub
stantial wagon and foot bridge
across Crooked creek in this Vi

dollars to the town and county
every year, and it is a great wonder
that there is not a unanimous move
in that direction.

An ordinance should be pass
ed prohibiting merchants from
blocking up the sidewalks with
their goods. 1t is well enough to
allow them two or three feet for
the display of their wares, but
when boxes, barrels, etc. are spread
out on the walk so far that only
one person at a time can pass, it
lis time to stop it.

In view of the oft securing &C
cidents resulting in the loss of
limb and life, the above question
becomes one for earnest considera-
ton. -
Boys must necessarily initiate
men, every boy has his hero,
his ideal of mal2ood If this
ideal be of the Jesse James school
it is far from complimentary to
his community. In creating that
ideal he has drawn upon the ma
terial with which lie is not famil-
lar; and if, in his effort to patron
ize free and independent manhood,
he become over jealous and pre-
sents caricature of his older
brother; it is because that elder
brother has set before him the
drossinstead of the gold Of true
manhood.
Just why the pistol should pos
sess such powerful fascination for
masculine humanity would be
hard to explain. But that the
average boy does feel his dignity
and manhood vastly increased by
the knowledge that this fashion
able ornament is clandestinely re-
posing in his hip pocket, can not
be questioned.
Where is the remedy? Evi-
IDENTIFY not among the boys. Ref
ormation, il begun at all, must be-
gin with men. Let the penalty
for selling and carrying these
weapons be doubled, tripled, quad
rupled if need be, till it becomes
heavy enough to inspire a whole
some regard for the law. Some
of our laws are as a dead letter.
We pay our Legislators for making
these laws and then pay officers
for shutting their eyes and fold
ing their arms while their mobile
constituency" quench their thirst
and pocket The ipevitable pistol,
So long as officers consult the
wishes instead of the deeds of our
country this thing will 90 on. God
speed the day 2hen taN moral,

Christians have been revived and
sinners converted. We devoutly
believe much good has been &C

need not cease if the professed fol-
lowers of Christ will work in the
prayer-meetings, at home, in Sc

word for their Savior.
