The Secretary of State Nomination.

The report in The Sentinel, recent
ly, that Hon. E. D. Coe had designs
upon the Office of state treasurer in
stead of the position of secretary OF
state, we know to be quite misleading,
and placed Mr.. Coe in false position
before the public, as THE REPUBLICAN
had positive knowledge when speak
ing of him as candidate for secre-
tary of state, that he was DESTROYS of
securing the nomination to that Of
flee for which he is so well fitted and
Justly entitled In this connection
we might say that no friend of Mr..
Coe approves of the unkind criticisms
offered to Capt. Timme. His merits
and services are highly valued, and
we are in a position to state
without fear of contradiction that
any attempt to cast disrespect upon
them will be without the sanction of
Mr.. Goes true friends.

Dairy T ak.

At the farmers institute held at JEFF
ferson last week, Gov. Hoard gave a
very interesting talk on the growth of
the dairy industry in jefferson county
since twenty years ago, when there
were but 900 COWS in the county, until
the present time, when there are near
ly 5000 cows, yielding an annual pro-
duct of 81 100000, with class of farm
ers second to those of no county in the
state in prosperity, and the fertility of
the farms increased from the ability to
produce but eight bushels of wheat per
acre to the production of eighteen
bushels. The governors talk was re-
ceived with marked interest.

1t appears that the votes of the spring
election of that year were being can
vassed, and SO close was the contest
that g. few ballots would turn the
scale either way The Republican
members found some defect in the re-
turns from Shields, and being in the
majority, were about to throw out
the vote. This would secure the sue
cess of the Republican candidates.
The Democrats were in quandary.
1t was night and the last day for COM
plotting the canvass. Finally, James
Higgins volunteered to GO to Shields
and get the original election returns,
while Joel Rich, E. G. Lewis and Rich
ard Mertz resolved to stave off final
adjournment until Higgins got back.
This was before days of telephones,
good roads or carriages, SO Higgins
resolved to go'on horseback. He Dor

and started on his mission. Unless
he returned before IL O'Clock, mid
night, the election was lost. Higgins

Higgins got back, while E. G. Lewis

one of the longest time-killing speeches

his eloquence Higgins got back with

dates were declared duly elected. But

certain saddle and a set of old bits
which were lost by James Higgins in
going to the town of Shields to pro-
cure certain election returns, neces
sary, as it was thought, to secure the
canvassing of some Democratic votes,
which otherwise would have been
thrown out. The saddle above men

A Cosmopolitan Post-Omce.

The smallest, simplest and best pro-
tected post-office in the world is in the
Strait of Magellan and has been there
for many years. 1t consists of small
keg or cask and is chained to the rocks
of the extreme cape, in the straits oppo-
site Terra del Fuego. Each passing
ship sends a boat to take letters out and
to put others in. The post-office is self
acting and unprovided with postmas-
ter, and is, therefore, under the protec-
ton of all the navies of the world. Up
to the present time there has not been
single case reported in which any abuse
of the privilege it affords has been
taken.-St. Louis Republic.

THE "tariff-reform" theorists are a.
wild-eyed lot. They claim that the
price of wool was higher under low.
tariffs than it has been under high
ones. Yet they urge that wool beput
upon the free list in order that man
ufacturers can buy cheaper wool and
sell cloth cheaper to the public. The
latter part of this free-trade argu-
ment does not match with the first
part.

This is no time of year tor the grass to grow;
Consider. good COW, consider.'
