MR. EDITOR The queer proceedings
of our county court have been carried far
and wide over the county until it has be-
come general topic Of conversation
among our people, and they are asking
each other the question, "What will our
partisan court do next ~ Some time ago
Genl. James II. Williams, one of the old
est and ablest lawyers in the Valley, was
fined and treated with the greatest disre-
spect by this court, although l have new
or yet heard any one, who was present at
the time, but who claimed that General
Williams was not to blame. The next
freak Of this partisan court was to fine
and imprison for ten days U. S. Senator
Rlddleberger, his personal enemy his
outrageous exhibition of personal spite is
too we'll known and understood by our
people to need any further explanation
from me. But the most surprising act Of
this surprising court occurred on Tuesday,
of last week, when the case of the Com
monyealth vs.. Hausenhuck was called
Capt. James C.. Baker, the Common
wealth's Attorney, was showing by wit
nesses that Hausennuck was to blame for
not havir his witnesses present, as he did
not mail his letters promptly as he should
have done. This made Hausenfiuck an
gry, and, stepping forth, he shook his
hand at Baker in a threatening manner
and exclaimed, an settle with you for

for protection from insult and danger, but
the court claimed not to have seen or
heard anything Our people are begin

and hears when it wants TO do 80. But,
then, the relations between Baker and the
court are not friendly, believe.
And now, Mr.. Editor, the people would
like to know whether this case of Hansen

on forever, piling mp expense on our over

Perhaps one Of the most dangerous play
things for children that has appeared fer
some tim e, is little penny whistle. II IS
made Of two pieces of tin about the size
of tw enty-ceut piece, soldered together
and with hole punched through the Gen.
ire. II ia held between the teeth and each
inspiration aud expiration Of the breath
causes a sharp whist ling sound. 1t is the
easiest thing in the world for a thoughtless
child to let this dangerous toy slip down
the throat, as has been frequently demon
strated. Only few days since DIR. Camp
bell was hurriedly called on to relieve
little son of Capt. JnO. II. Grabill, who
had swallowed one, and scarcely had he
succeeded in the difficult task when he
was again called on to attend similar
case for a little son of Capt. Geo, w.
Koontz. This little fellow was quite sick
and suffered severely, but we believe is
now all right, although he still holds on
to the whistle.

the family in the other part Of the house
that the flames were extmgulshed, when
it was found the child was very badly
burnt. 1t lived until next morning when
death relieved it of suffering.
