A Dry Time all Ar0und---A BIOOdieSS
Tragedy; Narrow Escape of Head.
Other News,

1t has been SO very dry that it
has been almost impossible for me
to write-the ground was dry, the
grain was dry, the flask was dry,
and | was little dry myself, but
the copious rain fall for the last few
days started the grain and grass to
growing, and a smell of the breath
of one of Caldwell's visitors to-day
revived my dropping spirits. But
that was all [ got, just a smell.
They evidently had more rain in
Caldwell than we had here.
The farmers all wear a pleasant
smile since. the rain. Some of them
are quite hilarious. Bob. Hamil-
ton was singing these very words:
l want to be farmer, and with the farmers
stand,
I've money in my pocket since THE TRIBUNE
cine to hand.
and there he was, waving THE
CALDWELL TRIBUNE over his head
and thinking Of the $1,000 that it
and the rain would put in his pock-
ct this fall
B. Odom is drawing lumber to
the Sebree ranch, l understand,
for barn. Sebree will make a
garden spot of his ranch yet.
Charlie Sebree made Parma
flying visit Wednesday. He in
tends to begin improvements on his
and Mr.. Lannan's ranch in few
days: Come again, Charlie, and
stay longer.
We regret to hear that Mrs. John
Ross is quite sick. Hope it will
not confne her to her home very
long, as Mrs. Ross is a person that
we all miss.
R. NJ. Deeds came very near
breaking the head of our worthy
friend, G. H. Holbrook, the other
day. 1t seems that Deeds had beea
hunting in Holbrook's field, and
had shot several times. At night
one goose did not come up and an
other was found to be shot in the
neck. Holbrook was telling of the
circumstance at the store, and said
that if Deeds did shoot those geese
it was an accident, that he did not
think Deeds did it on purpose,
and did not say that he did do it.
A few days after Deeds was at the
Blacksmith shop, and as Holbrook
was passing, called him to the
shop. Some hot words passed, and
Deeds said he would break Hol-
brooks head and stepped back in
to the shop, as HoIbrook supposed,
to get something to carry out his !
threat. But Deeds failed to come
out again and Holbrook walked
home. The last heard of Deeds he
was going toward Oregon singing,
''Let Thy Blessings Fall on Me-"
Che is Methodist.) If he had
come out of that shop blessings
and of tremendous power
would have been showered on him,
as Holbrook wouldn't be bluffed.
I see by THE TRIBUNE that
Cooper is to visit Chicago in the in ,
terest of the republican party.
What has he done with the green
back party that he was the father
of in Caldwell for several years.
Have the republicans bought him?
| expect to hear of Cooper as a mis-
sionary in China working for the
Mormon church next. They have
the money, but Cooper don't want
money; nothing but honor and
glory for him. Bishop Cooper;
hat sounds well; good office.

1t is great error to speak of the varl-
Gus conditions of the digestive and ner-
vous Systems resulting from the excess
i've or injudicious use OF alcohol rs a
specific disease, as they are similar TO
those which result from the excessive
use Of other food, nervous excitement
and mental and physical excesses Of all
kinds. The setting apart of the treat.
ment of these diseases as a specially is
one OF the greatest evils of the prevail
ing evil of specialisms, as is obvious by
the nonsense which is talked by such
specialists as TO the hereditary character
of the disease. and the incurability of
some cases. At present we have no evil
dence that acquired habits are transmits.
sible from parent to child, aud, more
over, there are no definite and uniform
lessons resulting from the use Of alcohol
to be transmitted, il such transmission
were possible. That the child Of a drunk
en- mother should have feeble health is
likely enough, as its nutrition has been
interfered with; and that the children of
incorporate parents should acquire their
habits from imitation and the facilities
for falling into them is likely enough,
also, but this is not hereditary, even in
the very loosest way in which the word
is used by medical men. British Medi.

the single land value tax theory: "Henry
George might perhaps find text in
support of some of his land theories
from the statement made concerning the
value of real property owned by the es.
tate of the late Joshua Jones, Of New
York. Among other property of which
he died possessed is tract of land be-
tween Seventy fourth and Seventy. fifth
streets, Central Park and Bloomingdale
road, which was bought by his father in
1906 for the sum of $500 and has been
in the family ever since. This property
is now worth more than 81, 800, 900, not
in consequence of improvements, but,
as Mr. George would say, in consequences
of the energy and industry of the citi.
zens OF New York, who have made of
their municipality great commercial
center, thereby permitting Mr.. Jones's
land to enormously increase in value.'

AT the secret meeting of the Hudson
County Liquor Dealers Protective Asso-
citation on Friday afternoon, resolution
was adopted demanding tho immediate
removal OF Samuel d. Dickinson from the
Office OF Controller of Jersey City. Mr..
Dickinson was the Speaker of the last
Legislature, aud the liquor dealers hold
HIM largely responsible for the legislation
hostile to their interests. A committee
consisting Of John Hart. Henry Lembeck
and Frank Kemmerly was appointed to
present their resolutions to the Board of
Finance, which has the power 10 remove
the Controller at its pleasure. The Board
is composed of two Republicans and three
Democrats, and it is general impression
that the demand OF the liquor dealers will
be complied with.

sert that the action of the late Legisla.

mark that eff President Cleveland's Ad-
minstration proposes, as some of its ar.

man of the Democratic State Executive
Committee, says -
President Cleveland is altogether too
mulish and too full of his self-conceit to
do anything toward remedying his wrong
or ailaying public apprehension ON the
evil which his free trade virus threatens
the Democratic party with. But why
should the Democratic party march to
certain defeat by indorsing the absurd
theories of a rustic lawyer, who, without
knowing the reason why, has stumbled
accidentally over the threshold OF the
White House ?"

In speaking OF the anti Chinese immi
grafton bill which has Just become q
law, the Newark News says, "Fof
twenty years the Celestials cannot be re-
cruited from outside sources. A China
man desiring to revisit his native land
for temporary purposes must prove that
he leaves behind him $1,000 worth OF
property in order to obtain return per-
NIT. If this is not enough to satisfy
Dennis Kearney and his sand lot consti-
tuents they are likely to go nnsatisfed.
Now that the Chinese question has been
settled, something should be done to
prevent the importation of European an.
archists. II is true that they are not o
menace to American industry, for they
seldom work, but this country can afford
to do without this class Of people quite
as well as it can afford to embargo the
mild hammered Celestials.'
