For some time past sheep have been
very scarce and high throughout the VAL
lev and it was almost impossible to keep
the home markets supplied with mutton
We are glad to notice the revival in this
branch of industry, as we feel sure that
it must prove paying one. Some OF our
people are going into sheep raising pretty
extensively, while quite a number OF
them will keep small focks. The valley
offers great inducements for profitable
sheep raising, much of the land beng
admirably adapted to grazing. The only
draw back is the great number OF worth
less dogs that are constantly roaming
over the country. Let every one keep a
loaded gun handy, and shoot every dog
they find rowing unattended over their
fields. By doing this through the day
and keeping the sheep securely penued at
night, they may bring their focks through
safely and with heavy profit.

Cutting up corn and seeding are keep
ing our farmers busy. As far as we can
learn the corn crop IS pretty fair one,
much better than was expected after the
unusually dry season. Seeding has been
much retarded by the dry weather, the
blowing being hard and slow work, the
ground breaking up rough and cloddy
ard requires much work to get it in order.
The unfavorable condition will prevent
the putting out as large an acreage as
usual.

John Boyd, the ex-sheriif who finds
himself in such trouble, was originally
from the Kelly district. He served as
deputy sheriff under C, NJ. Brown and
as sheriff from 1884 to 1888, being
elected as the Republican nominee.
He is about 35 years old and has a
family. He is the nominee of his
party for sheriff this year.
Omar S. Brown is with perhaps one
or two exceptions the most prominent
Republican politician in the city
He came here from Crofton in 1881.
He was even at that time considered
well TODD financially. Ho was dep
uty sheriff for three years under his
brother G. NJ. Brown and for fou
years under John Boyd, handling Tho
books and finances OF the Office. Hi
wealth has steadily increased ant
some estimates now place il az higl
as $4,000. Mr.. Brown is an active
partisan and holds other official posi-
tiors, being City Councilman anC
Public School Trustee. he is mar
past so years old and his family con
sists OF of a wife and one marriet
daughter.

Attorney Payne. Mr.. Boyd's attor-
neys are Landes N Clark and IL. j,
Sites.
The Investigation will so ahead for
several days and will extend back to
1881, covering three years ofex-Sheriif
G. NJ. Browns term when o. S. Brown
was office deputy. The latter, who
was bondsman for both sheriifs, says
he will pay whatever is found due
from the office, but as the amount con
tinues to grow there are good many
doubts rs TO whether his money will
hold out to tho end. II is most likcly
that it will take five figures to express
the sum that will have to he disgorgcd.
1t was reported yesterday by Boyds
friends that Brown would sign paper
coniessing his own guilt and exoner-
eratin Boyd, but the we.could learn
nothing OF it up to the time OF going
to press. 1t is not likely that Brown
will do any such thing,

Thorace for Delegate to the Constitu-
tional Convention has been allowed to
get into very complicated shape
ESQ. Warfeld early in the spring
announced himself las an independent
candidate, on tho anti-railroad idea.
Voters of both political parties re-
quested DR.. j. d. Clardy, also a
Democrat, to make the race against
Esq. Warfeld upon a platform favor
ing the right of the people to tax them
selves for public improvements or to
invite the Investment of foreign CAPT
tai in railroads or other Enterprises.
Just as the race was considered made
up, Mr.. S. G. Mercer, Republican,
came out and began bitter personal
warfare upon Esq, Warlield. This
has caused good deal of bad feeling
and has injected SO many side issues
into what was intended to be non
political contest that the only solution
seems to be for both parties to ignore
local issues and make nominations.
There are now two Democrats upon
the track and the question for imme-
date consideration is how to get the
opposing forces united and present a
solid front TO the common enemy. 1t
should be done and done quickly.
