The Comets.

The Comets.
Astronomers are becoming very much
interested in the appearance of two comets
which they say are moving towards our
earth at a rapid rate. Observations have
been made for some time and it is thought
about April or May they will burst upon
the view of the general public. They will
both be visible in the heavens to the naked
eye about the same time, and will come
very near the earth and sun. BY the aid
of telescope astronomers have already per-
ceived them in the northwest, having the
appearance of nebulous masses gradually
growing brighter and brighter. One is p a.
bry's comet discovered in Deceml',.r 1ss5
the other is Barnard's which appeared two
days later and is supposed TO be iieutica,
with the comet of 1879.

Is IT RIGHT?

The finding of John NJ. Glelssner
guilty Of violating the prohibition law
is greatly deplored by the citizens OF
this county, there is no man that stands
higher in the estimation of our people,
for truth, honor and integrity, than
John NJ. Gleissner; a self made young
business man, his life has been an honor
to himself, to those nearest him
and to our city and county.
We believe, the people believe that
he has endeavored to conscientlously
carry out law that, owing to its de-
fects will betray any one that attempts
to live within its provision. If there IS
any way under heaven by which he can
be saved from the penalty, the entire
populace will rejoice and feel that
there is still "God in Israel" The
entire sympathy Of our people IS PROOF
Of Mr.. Gleissner's standing among his
fellow men; he may suffer disgrace III
the eyes of the law but never In the
eyes of those thst honor and respect
him to-day more sincerely than ever.
His sterling worth, manly qualities and
goodness of purposes are like the rocks
of Gibraltar, staunch enough to beat
back the puny wave of fanaticism that
would engulf him with the slime,
a crest of bitter prejudice on pillows OF
yenOmOus spleen.

The Brewer Business.

An item in a recent issue of this
paper, credited an expression Of Opin-
ion to Judge Nicholson in which he
criticised Judge Brewers decision in
the Walruff case.
Judge Nicholson says the words at
tributed to him are wide of the mark ST
far as his opinion of Judge Brewer is
concerned; that "There is room to
differ with Judge Brewer in the Wal
ruff case, and many able lawyers
throughout the United States hold OPP
pOsite views Oh the question involved" "
He adds, "But let the decision in that
case be right or wrong, for my own
part, have no respect for the unkind
and unjust attacks made on the Judge
for his decision. 1t is the deliberate
and honest conviction Of one Of the
purest and ablest Judges in the whole
extent of this wide Republic. If that
decision is wrong and the State of Kan
sas is not satisfied with it, the Supreme
court of the United States is the place
to test it, not the newspapers. ''-CO,u,-
Gil Groue Cosmos.
We published an article two weeks
ago from the Cosmos, that said, Judge
Nicholson had asserted that there was
neither law or justice in Brewers decis-
ion. The above from last weeks Cosmos
is quite different and lifts from Judge
Nicholson'S skirts an accusation that
was considered by many, if true, to
have been altogether out of place and
for. The REFLECTOR is
pleased to know the first article in the
Cosmos was misrepresentation.

The WOodchuck went into his hole on

The cold storms has laid low more
quail than the shot gun.
A well on section II. about 20 feet
deep has been left uncovered for several
years, dogs, cats, rabbits and some

filled up or else securely covered or
there may be trouble.
Charley Hoyt shot and killed an

Buckeye Notes.

Once more we are on the threshold Of
spring. The gentle pleasant spring,
With its verdure, its bright sunshine
and its sweet notes Of singing birds.
As the snow yields to the positive
rays of the sun, the sad plight of the
wheat crop is revealed. Some fields
are almost hOpelessly bare, while few
fields contain possibilities of fair crop
Of the cereal.
We would respectfully invite the at
tentiOn of Our township Trustees and
road OverSeerS to the Unsafe condition OF
number Of culverts on several OF our
leading roads. They require immediate
attention. We are quite too sparlng OF
planks when we build these culvertS;
one or two more pieces (which would
cost but a tFife) would arrest the ne
ceSSity of almost continual repairing.
The high water caused by the recent
thaW undermined Mr.. Frye's new griSt
mill On Mud creek and viii necessitate
the removal of the entire building
and apparatus from its present location.
Samuel ZOok has just completed a
good new dwelling house on his section.

occupy the same in several weeks.
Miss Emma Davidson has been re-
hired to teach the summer term Of school
in the lift Dist. Her work during the
winter highly recommends her for the
position.
Miss Rosa Bates is very low with
combination of feyers which but for her
exceptionally strong constitution would
probably prove fatal.
