Dear reader; have you noticed how
the republican prohibltionist who
seeks office wants to dodge the pro-
hibition issue! There are several
candidates and would-be candidates
for office in this county, all profess
ing to be in sympathy with prohition,
who think that this fall is too early
to agitate this question. These men
are cravens willing to sacrifice their
principles for the brief term of an
Office, and desiring the support of no
one.

unless the person who entered his
house few nights ago and stole and
carried away two glasses of jelly and

need not be returned, nor the jelly or
cream. The guilty person is known
to Mr.. Brown.

it said that there were three kinds of

the Potsdam Deutsch and the Cd

that the Republican party of Stevens
county thought our German citizens
belonged to the last mentioned class.
A certain man in town who went to
bed Sunday night fearing storm,
was awakened about l o'clock by the
train, and thinking it twas the roar of
a cyclone, grabbed his clothesand made
a wild dash for the cellar, and was
only stopped by his wife who had
been awake, after his night shirt had
been divided between them in her
earnest efforts to detain him.--Ben.

The resolution adopted by the far
ners of Scott can well be taken as
showing the feeling among the far
mers as to the proceedings of the late
republican county cow ention. II
cannot be claimed that the adoption
of this resolution is the work of dem
ocrats. 1t was not. There were, al
we are reliably informed, thirteen
members present at the meeting, and
distinguished politically six of those
were republicans and seven demo
! Gratis. Now what is the record Of
the meeting! There were thirteen
| members present. The resolution was
, offered by a democrat and seconded
, by a republican, late delegate to the
convention il we are not mistaken
. and the resolution was adopted by Q
vote of eleven to one; one member
present not voting. We simply state
the facts as they are. II this be en-
, enlargement to the 6. o. p. of thi.
county .'then make the most Of it. :
