The Grain Crop.

The grain prospect is by no
means fattering. We have given
this question the closest attention
for the past few weeks and we are
prepared to say that the wheat
and oats in this section are not at
all promising. There are exception
al patches where the grain looks
we'll, and, indeed, few instances
of large fields where it is very
fine, but as a rule it is failure.
In the first place the acreage sown
IN grain is very small as compared
with that of last year, and even
that which has been sown seems
either to have been very poorly
fertilized or else cut short by the
cold, backward spring. One thing
certain, the amount of grain pro-
duced in Terrell and adjoining
counties this year will fall very
far short of the yield of former
years. This will necessarily have
the effect to make seed oats very
high another season, and we now
take occasion to admonlsh our
farmers TO harvest very close
ly when the time comes and
save every possible bushel they
can. The writer has made several
trips in the country recently, and
as a matter of truth he cannot
write encouragingly. This state
of things is to be deplored, for
there is no reason why our farm
ers should not produce a success
ful oat crop in this county every
year. 1t has been done, and the
fact is evidence enough that all
could do SO if they would give
this matter the proper attention
at the right time.

The Fire Engine Again.
EDITOR DAWSON JOURNAL

EDITOR DAWSON JOURNAL
There is contention going on be-
tween the city council and the fire
company just organized as to who
has a right to name the engine.
The city council has named it, and
the fire company claim that they
have right to change it. To set
tie the matter and give satisfaction
to all parties, let the mayor call a
meeting of the citizens of the city
and let them decide the matter by
putting names in nomination and
each voter pay a small sum for
each vote cast. We claim that the
engine is paid for by the citizens
and they have a right to voice in
naming it. Besides, it will bring
considerable revenue into the city
treasury to help pay for said en-
gine. CITIZENS.

There is great deal Of dissat-
isfaction in regard to the name of
the new fire engine. At the time
the council named the engine "H.
G. Turner" the fire company had
not organized. The comapny has
now organized and large num-
Der of them object to the name.
The fire company is a volunteer
one and the members are
unanimous in the opinion that
the council should not
name the engine without their
consent or dictate to them In any
manner. AS the engine was
named before the company was
organized the council claims that
they had a right to name it and
don't seemed disposed to allow it
changed. What the out come will
be, can't yet be told.

Obituary.

Mrs. d. 2. McLain, nee Isabel
la J: Mcdonald, died Jan. l4th,
1886.
She was married when fifteen
years old, during the same r.o,,
she consecrated her life n God
Through the following years she
walked close with Jesus. Though
only forty-eight years old when
GOD took her home, she had
oeen for years o great sufferer.
And yet, she had grand life
work. God gave to her keeping
seven children. With untirin9
devotion she trained them as only
an earnest mother could. AS they
grew old enough she would cali
them each day to ler side to read
a few chapters in history and then
a Bible lesson. The impress of
thrs precious mother marks the
manhood of her boy. Her oldest
son, Rev. K. III. McLain, gave his
life to mission work in China
Her world was within the veil of
home. "Her children arise up
and call her blessed; her husband
also, and he praiseth her." When
she found she had consumption,
she seemed alarmed to know that
her dear little girl must be LETT
without a mothers care; but she
would always say: "God knows
best; l am willing to suffer His
will" Her heart burned for those
who ''sit in darkness" Perhaps,
the last paper she ever read was
the Woman's Missionary Advocate.
God has taken her TO Himself
our home and hearts are desolatel
May her mantle fall on us.

A Suggestion in Regard to Naming
the Fire Engine.

AS neither of tie names men
toned for the fire engine gives sat
isfaction, we suggest that num-
ber of young ladies and Misses of
the city be put in nomination and
balloted for by the citizens of the
town and the engine named in hon
orof the one receiving the highest
number of votes, each person pay
ing g nominal sum, say $l.00, for
the privilege of voting. In max
ing this suggestion we mean no
disrespect to either of the gentle
men whose names have been men
toned, but solely as a means of har-
monizing the matter and raising
revenue for the town, and we think
thatnelther of the gentlemen would
object to their names being with
drawn and this plan adopted.
Neighboring towns have settled
similar questions i'll this manner to
the satisfaction of all, besides rails
ing nice sum of money towards
paying for the engine. We think
this would meet with the approval
of all, and, besides stopping dissen-
ton, it would be source of reve-
nue. to the city. Suppose the coun-
Gil and hremen harmonic by
adopting this plan.
