A WASHINGTON correspondent says
"the next presidential as well as the
next congressional campaign will begin
when the gavel shall fall in the two
houses of the Fifty-frst Congress"
This is true, and it is a suggestive COM
mentary on American politics. We are
hardly out of one election excitement
before we are in another. We are not
nearly through with the upheaval and
changes incident to the last election, and
yet political aspirants and managers are
beginning to set things up for the sue
cession. And the worst phase of the
whole business is that all this plotting,
contemplating and perpetual turmoil
takes little or no account of anything
but the distribution of official patronage.

Burnsville Notes.

ED REPORTER: Having q few leisure

to short communications from various
portions of the county, we conclude to
drop you line. Our farmers seem to
be alive to their interests. Farming is
receiving more attention than we have
noticed for years. Preparing ground
and planting are being pushed to their
utmost.
We feel that, il not already, our town
is about to get on q boom. We Judge
not from the enterprise of our people,
improvements going on etc., hut we
have more weighty reasons for believ-
ing that in the near future. that Burns~

The condition Of our central park and

roundings, wonder what kind of people
