Dry Run where mail was left with Daniel
Munich, at the dwelling now occupied by
Mrs. Susan Munich, and from there to Bur

the regular route but the carrier generally

Pole Raising on Cedar Greek.

Several weeks ago a Harrison " Morton
flag was raised at Central School House.
Two weeks before it was raised-the
dem Ocrats made their threats that just so
sure as it was put up at the school house,
it would be cut down; and they MADE
their words true. Now, to break the effect
of it, they assert that the poles were cut
down by republicans to obtain a borrowed
flag. The owner of the flag was perfectly
willing that it should stay there till us las
thread was exhausted and the democrats
knew it.
Saturday afternoon the same poles we're
raised again, and Harrison x Morton
flag swung to the breeze. The largest
crowd ever assembled at Republican
meeting on Cedar Creek was present

that in event OF the reelection OF Grover
Cleveland Prospect Tsnnery would be LOT

previously stated that without free hides
Prospect Tannery could not run. Dr'
King showed that this was but half the
story; that neither party proposed any
duty on hides, but that there was duty
of from ten to thirty per cent. OH leather

this protection not only Prospect Tannery'

would be compelled to stop.

On Thursday night Of last week two well
known colored men of this place, Leonidas
Brown, commonly known as "On,' and
Bob. Allen, played a most langhable joke
on the contents of the warehouse OF J. l.
Triplett, near the depot. II seems, &C
cording to "On' Browns testimony, before
Justice Grabill, that on the night in
question he was passing along the railroad
in front Of the warehouse when the door
suddenly opened and two sacks of flour
shot out in quick succession. Just for
joke he hid one Of them under freight
car nearby, and then went down the track
to an empty phosphate house where be
spent some time in gam Of poker with
several "gentlemen"(D On his return he
shouldered the sack Of flour, the other
being gone; carried it home, all for a
joke, emptied 1t into his flour barrel on
the garrett, still for joke, and then wash
ed the name and brand from the sack to
keep up the laugh on Bob Allen. Justice
Grabill enjoyed the joke hugely and in
order to keep up the fun sent "On" to Jail
for fifteen days. The other prisoner, Bob
Allen, who had entered the building by
means of a ladder and a W indow, and had
opened the door from the inside and threw
out the flour, was arrested by Policeman
Hoshour, to whom he confessed the whole
affair, but claimed that he was compelled
to steal because he had hurt his back
while at work some days before. lie also
claimed that after carrying the flour
short distance his conscience upbraided
him until he was compelled to retrace his
steps and return the flour. This part Of
the tale was so touching and bore upon
its face such an impression Of truth that
Justice Grabill unh esltatingly sent him
to Jail for the action Of tho grand jury.
