| There is talk again Of private residence for
the President which will probably be heard many
tunes more before anything comes Of it, Yet it is
a most commendabc idea Congress should either
provide the President with homo entirely sepa-
rate from his Office. or should combine the two in
q building large and commodious enough TO permit
n complete separation between his family and Off
cial life. The White House does not do that. It
Is not creditable to the country that President
should be obliged to buy place for himself out
side Of Washington, as Mr.. Cleveland has done. in
order to be able to enjoy little privacy.
Secretary Whitney's report on the Senate reso-
luton as TO the expenditures for repairs to vessels

the Galcna and Yantic ready 10 go to Hayti there

Charged with Robbery.

Upon a telegram from the authOri.
ties ST Scott county, Sheriff Munro
arrested Walter Myers in this village
last Monday afternoon and held him
until the arrival of Sheriff Weiland.
of that county, that afternoon, who
came armed with warrant for the
arrest of the young man on the chalg e
of robbery and returned with him OH
the noon train Tuesday. The facts,
as given to us are these: Some time
ago highway rObberywas committed
in Scott county. One of Two men
who were then suspected of the
crime escaped and has not been cap
tured, while the other was lately
trleG and is now serving a FIVE years
term in the penatentiary for the
hand he took in the affair. This
Myers was subp@n@d TO appear as a
witness upon the tlial but, cunning to
Morris where he has been eversInce,
he did not appear. 1t seems that
suspicion pointed also towards him
AS being connected with the affair
and the grand jury indicted him at a
late term of court, which caused his
arrest now.
There are many in Stevens county
who know this young man well who
hope that. he will have no difficulty
in proving his innocence of the
serious charge resting against him.
They are willing to believe what he
claims: That his unfortunate con-
nection with the case was purely
accidental. Not only does he claim
to be innocent, but that, CHANGING to
come upon the scene in time, he
saved the victim from brutal treat
ment by the men who committed the
deed.

"We were little surprised few
days ago to find $50 lying in the road
beside the hedge at the corner of one
of our prominent farmers homes, and
the more 50 to find it had lain there
several months unmoIested but be-
ginning to look much the worse for
the exposure. The money was in the
shape of a corn planter that will have
to be replaced by new one before
many years unless cared for better
than that" The above we find in
Missouri exchange. There are still
few of our farmers who continue the
once popular practice of letting their
machinery lay out doors. rottIng and
rusting to peices instead of wearing
out, bu5 lately this practice is con-
fined tc very small and exceedingly
shiftless lot in this locality. All of
our best farmers take as good care of
their machinery as though 1T was
