What About Dixie?

Last year the law hung 9s and Judge
Lynch l75 victims. All the hangings
in Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Wisconsin
and Michigan were done by Judge
Lynch instead of the Sheriff. The law
is too slow for the rapid west.-Register-
Democrat.
The Register Democrat shows the viola
ton OF law in the States Of Iowa, Ne
braska, Kansas and Michigan where
Judge Lynch got in a part of his work,
but fails to say word about the much
greater frequency of Judge Lynch's
courts in Dixie than the States above
mentioned, or, in fact, of all the northern
States taken as a whole. Statistics say
that the Judge above mentioned presid-
ed at 139 "lynching" bees held in Dixie
in 1889, while in all the northern States,
including the "rapid west," 36 was the
number of his executions.

The unusual warm winter has been
very favorable to the erection of new
houses and the repairing of old. This
fact has made such demand on wall
paper stock at Bowles' as to almost COM
pletely wipe out their old stock. This
has necessitated the first shipment Of
their new goods which are the most
beautiful designs ever brought to this
market and are cheaper than ever. Per-
sons wanting wall papers and window

1t is estimated that American terri
tory does not at this date contain over
200 eagles, large and small, and If these
are to be preserved, a law making the
killing Of one of them State prison Of
Tense should be passed by every State as
soon as possible. 1t seems strange that
national emblem should not have been
more carefully looked after Winchester
Dispatch.
Three hundred eagles is not very
large number, but it would seem to be
enough for emblem purposes. The
American bison is also needing protec-
ton by statute as an emblem" Other
things may need little preservation by
statute ere long. For instance it isreport-
ed that the aborigines are fast disap-
pearing. Would it not be in order to
make it ''a State prison offense" for any
person killing an Indian? +? This does
not include wolves and bears, which are
also fast disappearing.

Called the Police.

Mayor Hamilton, of London, o., in
very excited tones called the police of
that village on Tuesday night of last
week. The call of the Mayor meant
more than the making OF an ordinary
arrest; it meant the arrest OF the flames
that were causing immense uneasiness
and some pain to the Chief Executive of
the town OF London. The Mayor had
lain down to read with lighted cigar in
his mouth; Morpheus took possession OF
the mind and body of Mayor Hamilton,
while the fire from the lighted cigar
took hold of the bed clothes and the
neither garments of the Mayor. 1t was
during the progress of the fire demon
that the now-awake Mayor called for
his associate officials, and the combined
official force OF the town succeeded in
extinguishing the menancing flames.
All's we'll that ends well, and London's
Mayor is still on duty.

Prosperity From Different Standpoints.

The neighboring county seat of
Georgetown is seemingly in a prosper
GUS condition, but while prospering it
may be observed that there is a grain of
alloy in the prosperity. The George
town Gazette, in comparing their thriv.
ing condition with that OF Batavia and
Hillsboro, says
The Clermont Courier attributes the
business drough in Batavia to the local
option ordinance, while the Hillsb,ro
NEws.HERALD attributes the dull times
in their place to too many saloons. We
presume we have to attribute the pros
porous condition of Georgetown to the
fact that we aie neither hot nor cold,
wet nor dry-a little OF both, but not
enough to keep fellow from getting a

says OF the prosperous condition of the
place particularly the "wet or dry" con-
dition OF the streets) that "our postmis-
tress is entitled to the thanks OF the peo-
pie. Last week she hired a colored man

Another doubtful point in the Amer
lean history has been cleared up. The
7'uEJ, Field and Farm claims to have
discovered the man who really hit
Billy Patterson. Nicholas Spicer was
his name, and the incident occurred
many years ago i'm Richmond, Va. Mr..
Patterson was "a tough, and when
drunk was always spelling for a fight.
One night he saw a number of we'll
dressed physicians i'm n hotel, and en-
tering began the ask of cleaning out
the entire crowd. His success more
than met his anticipatiOns until he
struck Mr.. Spicer, who struck back
with such rapidity and force that Billy
was picked up for dead. Next day the
police came TO the hotel inquiring who
had hit Billy Patterson. 1t in n pecu-
iiarly striking illustration Of the irony
of fate-Mr. PattersOn's fame on every
body's lips, while Mr.. Spicer is UNI
knelled, uncofined and unknown.
