A PERMANENT INDUSTRY.

Chicago Mining Rsvisw.j
Que Of the mos. satisfactory indica-
ton. in regard to better returns from
tho mining industry. is shown in the
fact that its real character appears to
be more clearly understood at the
present time than ever before. Too
generally, it has bee. regarded as a
speculative, uncertain. and doubtful
business, aud investments have been
moro in the spirit Of . chance ven
turs, from which no definite results
might DO positively anticipated. Ia
operations conducted upon such a
basis, i: is not strange that business
methods were lacking, and many
failures naturally followed. The
present time shows q very satisfactory
change, and the fact appears to be
more generally realized, that the ex.

Llncoln's Old Home.

The old home of Abraham Lincoln,
at Springfield Illinois, is in charge OF
o. III. Olaroyd, state custodian. In
this house are many relics of the mar.
tyred president: The stove on which
his last meal was cooked before leav-
ing for Washington to assume the du-
ties of president, in the spring of
1861; the chairs which lie and Mrs.
Lincoln used when they first COM
menced keeping house, and many 9TH
er articles, the most interesting of
which is a marble-top stand, the legs
of which are made from rails split by
Lincoln himself. On this stand the
following lines by John G.. Whittier
are inscribed:
"LET MAN BE FREE! The mighty word
He spoke was not his own,
The spirit of the Highest stirred
His mortal lips alone"

Stock Raising.

The TRIBUNE is of the opinion that
our farmers who contemplate going
out of the cattle raising business will
make mistake If they do so. 1t was
only a few years ago that hogs were
selling at such low figures that many
farmers disposed of what they had on
hand for a mere trifle, and i'll some
instances gave them away and went
out of the business Of hog raising.
This. year hogs command a good price,
and those who continued to raise
them have made money. Just so 1t
will be with cattle. Now they are
low, and according to our notion now
is the time to invest IN them and
continue in the raising business, for
it is almost dead certain that cattle
will command good price inside OF
the next two years. It's a we'll known
fact that fewer cattle are being bred
on the great ranches of the west, and
as a natural result the supply will not
equal the demand during the next
few years. Therefore our advice to
the farmers in this section is to con-
tinue to raise cattle for the market,
and we are confident they will make
money out of the business.

Christmas in Morris.

Christmas was very generally 90
served in our city. The business houses
were closed except fora short time dur
ing the forenoon. The day was beau
tiful-bright sunshine and mild air.
Interesting Christmas services were
held in the Norwegian Lutheran
| church last evening, there being a
very good attendance.
Services were held at the Catholic
church yesterday christmas Day. at
eight, nine and 1880 o'clock. The
church was handsomely decorated
and the services were largely attended.
There was Christmas tree and
festival at the Methodist church on
Monday evening. All of the Sunday
school children and their teachers re-
ceived presents and were made happy.
1t was a delightful occasion and great
~ enjoyed by all present.
The Congregational Sunday school
Christmas festival came off at the
church last evening. The entertain
ment consisted ofsinging, recitations,
etc There was a fine Christmas tree,
loaded down with presents for the
little folks, and Santa Claus was
present and superintendent the distri-
button of the gifts. The teachers were
presented with appropriate presents
from their pupils. The occasion was
a very interesting one to all who at
tended.

made them all happy.

Trade at Home.

You should trade with your home
merchants because they merit patron
age. They ask for it. Every dollar
spent helps them to buy in larger
quantities and thus get cheaper rates
which you viii save the next time
you purchase. We are like large
family, each one depending upon the
other in measure for his living, ana
when they build stores, or occupy
them, hire CLERKS. etc., thus giving
employment To ahumhefoi men, VINO
help to make the town what II Is,
they certainly are engaged in work
which is beEeiit to the city, thus
putting money IN the pockets OF every
one who owns a foot of land here
abouts. After you pay your fare TO
some other place you are nothing
ahead when you go off TO buy goods
and your time is lost whether it is
worth anything or not. They can
and will sell goods as cheap as you
can get them elsewhere all things
considered. In conclusion, remember
your home merchants when you trade
and you should by all odds give them
a chance to bid for it. 1t might also
be said that home merchants if they
want to see this rule carried out should
practice it themselves. The general
dealer should get his drugs here, the
drug man should buy his groceries
Eere, the clothing man should get
his goods here and other dealers should
get their clothing here. Turn about,
you trade with me-I'll trade with
you. a sort of protection, you know
among ourselves.

Supreme Court Decision-An
Interesting Case.

Supreme court DeCfSlOn-An
Interesting Case.
On Friday last the Supreme Court
rendered a decision Of considerable
Importance to farmers, renters and
lesees of land. It was Grant county
case, and the parties interested were
Rev. F. B. Nash, Jr., who has farm
near Tlntah, and who was talked of
as a possible Democratic candidate
for Congress from this district, Robert
Toombs, K. B. Lovejoy and L. L..
Brewster. These parties are well
known to many of our readers.
Nash appeared as appellant, and
Brewster as respondent. Lovejoy
leased farm OF Toombs and bought
200 bushels of seed wheat from Nash,
for which he gave a 'seed wheat
note. He sowed 120 bushels of the
wheat upon the leased land. OF the
balance, with the consent of Nash,
he exchanged so bushels for wheat of
another kind. After the wheat was
harvested and stacked, Toombs seized
it under a clause in his lease giving
him lien on the crops. The wheat
was sold to Brewster, who claimed it
by bona fide purchase, though Nash
claimed 1t on his "seed grain" note,
for which he had recovered verdict
for 500 and interest in an action in
form for q conversion of the wheat
The main question of the appeal was
to decide whether the note would hold
over the mortgage on the crop made
to the lessee. The court decided thai
the note had prior claim on the pro.
perty, which settled the case, though
some minor issues were involved.
