zephyrs OF spring.
The health of our neghborhood and
little village is very good at present, and
very few are on the sick list.
There seems TO be q great deal Of
trouble in this place in regard to the
hogs running a. large. They have
caused ill-feeIings among some Of our

of "Uncle'' Dan. has purchased MIR.

for them a good trade during the CON-
ing spring and summer. Mr.. Bitter has
many friends who will follow him here
to do their business. Bitlertown will
yet come 20 the front with as good 1--we
business men as can be found in any
village in the county.
We used to love the sight Of the "beau-
tiful'' snow bird, but now 1t has become
the emblem of despair. Some one has
said that "hepe springs eternal in the
human breast" but we now doubt the
saying when We know of its trials
in g Kansas winter. But Co return
to the bird aforementioned, no sooner do
we behold the beams of the sun shoot
across our frigid Kansas plains, and
under its influence. begin to think and
feel those thrills of delicious emotions
which seem to pervade all animate ma
ture on the approach of summers genial
reign, than down comes Aock of thosG
shlrmishers of winter, and our younG
hope Is "nipped in the bud" and Wi
fall into dispair that lie akin to that o

When the b. " o. decided 10 make
lower rates than ever before, for any H.
auguration, It did so in the full convlc-
ton that such concessions to the public
at such times should be complete and
without any reservations whatever. On
other lines il would seem that certain
trains are considered entirely too good
tor the average Washington passenger,
and that a reduction in rates means SIM
ply that slow train time can be had at q
less figure than usual, but for first-class
and modern time the old rate of not only
the regular fare, but double should be
exacted. In other words, on the B. &
o. every train, both limited and others,
is open for the convenience and comfort
of Inauguration passengers, no extra
charges being made Of any description,
and no attempts made at exclusigeness.
On other lines Inauguration tickets are
not good on limited trains, and the re.
duction in rates is not considered 70 ap-,
ply to them. These facts IL will be ad
visable 10 remember when the time for
the purchase OF tickets comes.

THE Postmaster General, in bis
circular suggesting a way for demo-
Gratis to get rid of republican postmas
ters, announced that if any one of
these officials was the editor or pre-
prietor Of a republican journal that
fact would make him an offensive
partisan" whose head should be cut
off, Well, now, how about our broth
er of the Advertiser True, be is
editor and proprietor Of democratic
Journal, and that may make the differ
once; but General Villas ought TO
stick to the old golden rule-"W What
is sauce Tor the goose ought to be
sauce for the gander." And then,
too the r. N. G. may argue that q re-
publican editor is q goose and dem
ocratic editor gander, and the same
sauce is equally good for both, though
the former must have bis head taken
oIf, and the latter keep bis on. Or,
be may hold to the definition we gave
recently ID the Capital, that . repub-
lican editor was an offensive parti-
zaD, "but democratic editor is only .
defensive partizau" Anyway, civil
service reform has brought up some
nice points for the democracy to wres-
tie With. and we leave it ID their
hands.
