LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE

Born, to Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Billings,
a daughter.
Some of our young people made ex-
{ tensive arrangements for a fishing
| expedition on Saturday, but by reason
of the rain were unable to carry out
their plans.
Miss Annie Lemen attended the
I commencement exercises of the Avoca
high school last week.
/ About o'clock every morning our
streets present lively appearance with
/ the number of teams that come from
! several miles around hauling milk to
( the cheese factory.
Richard Manning has shipped since
7 last fall fourteen car loads of potatoes
from this market. Week before last
he purchased between seven and eight
thousand bushels Of oats. Such show
ing as this speaks well for our village
as a market.
The Memorial services last Sabbath
was largely attended, and the exercises
were listened to with feelings of inter
est and sympathy throughout. Several
veterans were present, and occupied
seats in the front, and one could not
help thinking Of the days that these
same brave boys held similar positions,
but under entirely different conditions.
To them we owe our freedom. To
them belongs the praise for the pres
eryation of our union, and the enjoy
ment of our happy homes.
Ed. Thomas has a large stock of
screen doors for the spring trade. Call
and see him if in need of anything of
the kind.
Several of our young people attended
the temperance festival at Highland
on Saturday evening, and report an
enjoyable time.
Charles Harvey has just purchased
Of J. NJ. Ellsworth, a fine carriage
team. They are jet black and while
they have good action they are per-
fectly gentle and docile. The price
paid was three hundred and twenty
five dollars.
Our school closed last Friday, after
years very successful work. 1t is
with no little satisfaction that officers,
parents and friends of the school look
at the progress the pupils have made.
There was large number present in
the afternoon to enjoy the entertain
ment. The pupils all performed their
parts creditably. In the evening the
school house was again crowded to its
utmost by those eager for ice cream,
Strawberries &c. and a good social
time All of which was literally sup
piled except the Strawberries which
ran short.
An attempt at burglary was made
in the depot of this place on Saturday
night. They effected an entrance by
pushing back the window fastener with
knife, inserting it between the upper
and lower sash, and then raising the
north window They cut the money
drawer badly but did not succeed in
opening it. 1t seems they got fright
ened out rather suddenly, leaving their
ck-knife-with the two blades bro
ken. From appearances it is evident
they were inexperienced hands. Mr.
Billings leaves but few pennies in
the drawer nights and they would have
had but a small catch had they sue
ceeded in procuring the contents of it.

Two prominent financiers, Messrs.
Gould and Huntington, are not very
enthusiastic over the nomination of
Mr.. Thurman for vice president.
Why they dislike the old Roman is
briefly told as follows:
" The original proposition for some
sort of Communication of the indebted
ness of the Pacific railroads to the
government came from Mr.. Hunting
ton, of the Central Pacific. That road
had in its land grant between the two
ranges of mountains vast tract of
desert land that was not worth a dol
lar square mile, and it occurred to
the sagacious Mr.. Huntington that the
government might take it back ut
$3.50 an acre in part payment against
its claim against the Pacific railroads.
The Pacific railroad committee of the
senate was made up mostly of gentle
men friendly to the roads, and that
committee reported bill that was en-
tirely satisfactory to Gould and Hunt
ington. But the Judiciary committee
got ahead of the Pacific railroad com
mittee and before that committee re-
ported its bill reported a bill for the
settlement Of the debt due to the gov
eminent, which is known as the Thur
man bill. This was in 1878. The
bill was passed by the efforts of Thur
man and Edmunds, against the lobby
ing Of Huntington and Gould.

The New York Weekly Post, in re-
ply to a letter from a subscriber charg-
ing it with inconsistency in support
ing Mr.. Cleveland on a tariff issue, in
spite Of his failure to fulfil all of his
ciyiI-seryice reform promises the prin-
cipal basis on which The Post supported
his first candidacy defines its
position: "If we saw the smallest
chance of Cleveland's being opposed
by anyone who would carry out or
come anywhere near carrying out the
pledges Cleveland made in 1884, we
should not be prevented by any con
Germ for the tariff from supporting him,
because we know well that tariff re-
form is not within the President S
reach, while civil-service reform is.
But we see no prospect Of anything of
the kind In the present condition of
the republican party we see no pOSSibil-
ity Of it. If the republican c0nven-
ton dominates fit man it will be with
the intention Of knitting him; if it
dominates bad one, it will be with
the view Of using his clothes to dis
guse the well known features Of J.
