Twenty third Annual Fair of tho County
Agricultural society.

| Agricultural society.
There are some fears that the multiplicity
OF other attractions nearly preceding th,
county lair will iniuriously affect that grea
and indIspe nsabc annual festival of the farm
ers and their families. The GLoBE- REPUBLIC
rises to remark that this should not and mus
not be, and calls upon the people Of city and
country to reserve large place In their re.
CARDS and see to It that this years exhibition
shall be as varied and extensive in itself al
any already on record, and as well
supported in the attendance. And
this appeal is not addressed to the men only
but to the ladies, without whose valuable aid,
experience long ago proved, the county fair
would be beggarly array at best, at any
time. Note the date-Tuesday TO Friday
inclusive, August %, &c. 27 and 2s next
and the fact that the interval between it and
the great soldiers reunion will be sufficient 10
make all needed preparations II properly
improved The display by the ladies, mer-
chants, florists, artists and others in the new
| fine art hall last year was the best for years,
but it can and ought to be outdone the last
week in this month, and this is the time to be
conjuring up and arranging exhibits.
The stock and horse men may be relied
upon to bring these departments up to the
standard, and the liberal prizes offered by the
managers insure some attractive tests of speed
and bottom on the track The order OF exhi-
bition for each, as erranged tor the cat logue,

The Singular Accident that Occurred at
Fairfield Yesterday.

Ihe singular Accident that Occurred at
Fairfield Yesterday.
Last evenir & DR.. l.. 4. Russell received II
message from Fairfield, in Greene county, to
join Drs. Greene and Scare in a consultation
over very peculiar case in surgery, occa
stoned by an accident which happened near
that place yesterday. Moses Wilson, young
man connected with one OF the leading fam
lilies of the neighborhood, and "A companion.
while waiting for "A threshing machine, thought
to indulge themselves in some diversion and
amuse the usual collection of country
people who had gathered for the
purpose of threshing the wheat
crop. A common rural scene was enacted but
with serious results not anticipated. Young
Wilson and his companion challenged each
other for "pig wrestle," which is thus de-
scribed: The contestants lay down head to
head on the ground and at given signal
spring and catch each other; the winner is
the one who succeeds in turning his antsgon-
ist over him as they lay on the ground. Mr.
Wilson's opponent proved to be too strong
for him, and, in the great strain exerted, his
Wilson'-) bach was broken just below the
shoulders. He is now parslyzed below the
fracture and is wholly unconscious OF any
feeling below the shoulders. The victim of
this singular accident may recover, but it is
extremely doubtful

An Open Letter to the Prohibitioni-ts.
To the Editor Of the Globe Republic:
Sir: have been asked why, as proiessed
temperance man and an old crusader, did
not vote last all tor St. John. | thought |
knew st. John too well to vote for him, and
my opinion of him was confirmed by his
speech at the late prohibition convention. In
that speech he sayr, "of my own personal OBJ
servation and knowledge assert that the So.
cial and political civilization of Danyllle,
Virginia, and CopiAh county, Mississippi, is
as high and creditable as in any locality in
the United States, and that the charge that
there is any hulldozing, fraud, intimidation or
violence at the polls is false"
ask, would II have been possible for the
father OF lies to beat the above IL he had done
his level best? ls it strange that | could not
vote for man who can make such an asser-
ton? Can follow "a party who hold up
such man as the leader of great moral r
formf am also asked why cannot vote
tor DR.. Leonard this tall. DIR. Leonard in
his speech before the convention says "that
A9,556,2l3 bushels Of grain is destroyed in
the manufacture Of Intoxicating liquors
enough to supply the whole population OF
our country with bread for four and half
years." Does the doctor not know that each
distilery feeds the swill to hogs and cattle
and that the material, alter taking out the al
cohol, Is turned into beet ard pork2 Is his
statement made In ignorance of the above
fact, or 10 1t something else2 How can
you expect me to vote fora great reiormer in
the face OF such u sta,ement2 And after
making such . statement he is nominated Al
the leader OF a great moral reform Com.
ment is unnecessary. A.

Disturbed Land SpeculatOrx.

THE RESULT OF RAILROADS SELLING LANDS
IN DAKOTA WITHOUT TITLE.
Dispatches from Dakota state that there is
considerable anxiety among the land owners
in the Territory, occasioned by a recent decis
sion of the United States Supreme Court, de-
claring that the railroad company had no title
to lands which they have disposed of largely ID
private indivuals and others, but that the title
still rests In the government. At the general
have been i'll the habit of taking out selections
OF public lands, but not taking out patents, In
order to avoid The payment OF the cost OF sur
veys, and also to avoid the payment Of state
and coun ty taxes from which government lands
are exempt. AS long as no patent issues the
title to the land is in the government, and the
cOmpan 'eS have been selling such land 10 pri-
waite parties, with the understanding that at
secure patents. The issue of patents, however,
needs the assent of the Secretary OF the lnte-
rior, II i'm the case of the Northern Pacific the
depdi Lment refuses to issue any patents what
ever, on the ground that their entire grant is
liable to be forfeited by Congress, where the
matter is now pending. In the cases of the
Cnion Pacific an Central Pacific they have
apply because they by SO doing they avoid
lOc.d taxation. In some instances the land
grant roads have disposed of land outside OF
the Indemnity limits, 20 which, they have no
claim, and Tor this reason no patentcOuld he
issued. 1t is stated, however, that in eases
where private purchasers find that they have
bought land rom the railroad company which
the Latter did not nor cannot own that bona
fide settlers will be protected, as the law con-
SiderS the title al u man who actually lives OH
his 16O acres superior to ali otiier titles and
impossible to di,possess. W here, however, land
has been bought in quantities or by mere
speculat ors, as distinguished from bona fde set
tle-s this decision will affect disastrousiy in
th' cent that they fiiid that they nave bought
land from Il company which had no title to 1t,
apC which Is still in the koVefnmeut.
