The verdict in the case of Bennett
against the Minnesota & Northwestern,
decides virtually that the company is not
guilty of maintaining nuisance in keep
ing their stock yards In the condition in
which they have been, as the damages

merely. The evidence does show tina:
the yards are the source of many I'm.
wholesome smells and require the con-
slant attention of the r. r. employees to
prevent their becoming unbeatable to
great number. Kept in their best posi-
BILE condition they are insufferable to
near neighbors. While attention is be.
ing called to the impurities at the stock
yards, it should be remembered that there
are great many sources of disease and
public danger that are not connected
with the stock yards. We have in mind
number of yards and privies that are
already poisoning the air with their
noisome exhalations. AS soon as warm
weather comes they will begin the work
of communicating the air we breathe and
poisoning the water we drink. There
are places where the drainage is such
that large share of the gathering lmpur-
tiles will be removed without the active
Intervention of man, but here, if he will
sit down in filth, nature will not prevent
it by removing the filth. but is more like
~ to remove the man. Health and CON-
fort demand that everyone look carefully
to everything about his premises, and see
that nothing is harbored there that will
annoy or injure either himself or his
neighbors. DO not wait for warm wealth
er for grand cleaning up, but begin it
at once and do not stop until you can
face critical neighbor or the health Of
f1cers. without tremor. Vaults and
privies should be cleaned out and deod-
orized. Barns, yards and pens should be
carefully cleaned and their contents used
to enrich your gardens or some ones

should be carefully burned. l: Is insight

Don't wait for the Board of Health to sit
on you, for you would probably forget
how richly you deserved their attention

tentions. Your newspaper may seem to
need items, but don't think that it will
be mercy TO 1t to have to announce your
shortcomings. The Mayor may not
seem to be very busy, with no water

him, on that account force him to come

SPRING VALLEY. March %, 1888.

To the Editors of the TRANSCRIPT.
Permit me through the columns of your
valuable paper to call attention to the
fact that we have Western man who,
although not the "favorite son" of our
state, vet he is one who has for long
time been identified with western inter-
ests and has had considerable influence in
shaping western thought on political is
sues, and. who. for nearly twenty five
years consecutively has represented one
of our great western states with honor
and marked ability as representative and
United States Senator.
I refer to Hon. w. B. Allison, of Du-
buque, Iowa A man reared on farm in
the state of Ohio, knowing we'll from ex
perience the desires and needs of the agri-
cultural element of our people, while by
long contact with business men and manu-
facturers, his mind is clear as to the ne
cessarY government required to foster
their interest. A man located near the
center, east and west of our wide spread
country, and who is as we'll Informed in
regard to the legislation required to bene.
fit our countrymen east or west, north or
south as any other man who has so far
been named as candidate on the Republi.
can ticket for our next president.
During Mr.. Allison's long career in pub
lie life he has not made an enemy in the
Republican party. No man IN the House
of Representatives or Senate has been
more fair in debate. No man has treated
those who have been opposed to him on
political issues with greater fairness or
more kindness of neart. and no one named
for the Office of President would be pur,
sued with so little malignant feeling as
Mr.. Allison.
His fairness of mind, his large expert.
ence, his devotion to the entire country,
would make him acceptable to the whole
country. and his long residence in the
west. now the center Of the United States,
his aid in shaping western thought,
makes him desirable man for western
people. His kind care for the rights OF
the soldier. his loyalty in the dark hour
of our rebellion and the stronghold he
has gained on the affections of those who
stood by their country in her hour OF
peril, all will aid to strengthen him and
help him to become our standard bearer
in the next presidential contest and insure
victory for the Republican party if nomi
mated. VINDICATOR.
