Capt. Fl. A. Billow, of Lamar, was in
the city yesterday attending the reunion
of the blue and the gray at the Colorado
State Fair. To a Chieftdin representa-
tive Captain Billow said: "Prowers
county and Lamar were never as pros
porous as they are just now. The crops
of the present year have been bounteous
and our farmers are rejoicing in fat bank
accounts and general prosperity. An
immense acreage of wheat is being sown
and everybody is happy and full of hope
for the future. In political circles there
is great interest manifested. The repub-
licans are well organized and more en-
thusiastic than ever before. The entire
ticket will be elected. The future of
our county and city are very bright and
I'm still for Lamar and Prowers county,
first, last and all the time. e."-Pueblo

Capt. Billow's assault on 7. II. Cecil
yesterday cannot be justified, unless as
Billow claims, he was positive that
Cecil circulated the ISLANDERS as reported.
Although it is almost always wrong to
take the law in ones own hands, yet there
are times and circumstances when the
punishments of the courts are too uncer-
tain, and entirely inadequate to meet the
offense, and in such cases mans blood
will boil and right or wrong, human ma
ture seeks its own revenge. The vilest
brute on the face of the globe is he who
crawls about like a venomous serpent
and hisses slime and slander against the
fair name of woman. If,as reported in this
case, the object of such ISLANDERS are to fur
ther political ends, it does not take the
villany out of them. A personal, mud
singing campaign is disgrace to civ
ilized community, and as far as this pa
per is concerned, it will not descend to
one.

The flag signal service has been in op-
Grafton but a few weeks, but its value is
already being greatly appreciated
especially by farmers and threshermen.
This is an outgrowth from the "Meteoro-
logical Society's local reports. State and
United States reports are received here
each week. The chief of the work in
this State is w. S. Miller, Esq, the gov
ernment officer IN Denver, since whose
advent in Colorado, the service seems to
have taken new and more healthy lease
of life, and instead OF its reports being an
incomprehensible row of figures and
page of technical phraseology, they are
now given out so all can understand their
meaning. Mr.. Miller has introduced, or
more properly speaking, exemplitied the
work of the department, both in its
weather, crop and other lines of informa-
tion, that the observers under his espe-
cial charge seem to take a pleasure in
giving carefully their observations, as the
system Of record cards, etc, sent out are
simple and take but very
little time to keep in shape. Thus the
government gets much more information
through this source than ever before, and
the people are ecorrespondingly benefited.

We are in receipt Of information that
would lead us to think the autobiography
and personal memoirs of BENJAMIN F.
& Co., of st. Louis, Mo-, will undoubted-
ly create the greatest sensation of any
book published since the war. Butler is
bound to tread on the corns of some and
vindicate others. His perfect knowledge
of the personal career of many men, both
military and civil, and what he will have
to say in his book of 1000 pages of close
ly printed matter, will make very inter
esting reading.

The republican convention for the
third judicial district was held at Trini-
dad last Saturday evening. Hon. ]. A.
]. Valdes, of Walsenburg was nominated
for district attorney. Hon. o. G. Hess
was the choice Of the east end counties
for the place, and made very strong
showing, but by the caprices Of political
circumstances in Las Animas county, he
did not receive the support that he was
led to expect from that delegation.
Knowing Mr.. Hess as we'll as he is here
known, the eastern delegates naturally
considered him the stronger man, and it
would have been very pleasing to have
had him for our candidate. But Mr..
Valdes comes well recommended, he has
fought in the republican harness a long
while, and will make good prosecuting
attorney.

Fall Wheat.

Written for the REGISTER.
This staple cereal should under ordi-
nary circumstances all be planted and
major portion showing above ground by
the end Of September. BY ordinary cir
cumstances in an irrigated country we
mean having plenty of water at hand
to thoroughly irrigate the seed as soon
as sown. AS this in some localities is an
unknown quantity, we would advise the
thorough preparation of the ground and
drilling preferably with a press runner
drill done moderately deep. And as soon
as water can be applied in q sufficient
quantity to well soak the ground to irri-
gate any time up to November first We
advise thorough soaking believing that
enough water should be put on to give
the seed good start above ground.
Should it only sprout and not have mois-
ture enough to grow at least two inches,
there is great danger OF premature death.
1t is better not to irrigate at all than to
put only enough water on to sprout the
seed, for if kept dry it will retain its vi
tality until the effect of the winter SHOWS
start it up. To plant less than six pecks
per acre is lin our opinion founded upon
close observatory an extravagant and
wasteful method, as ground fairly covered
will produce more clean wheat and less
weeds with the same or less work than
to put in any less quantity. And the
earlier in the season the product is ready
to harvest, the less danger there is OF hail,
rust and other destroying influences.
Plant it early, deep and thick and it is
crop that will help lift a mortgage off
many fair farm in the Arkansas valley.

John WlnsloW Jones Named as De-
PENDANT In an important Suit.

The attorney of John Winslow Jones of
canned goods fame has been in town for the
past week, taking testimony in the suit now
pending in New York, in which the Port.
land Packing Company is plaintiff. and
John Winslow Jones defendant.
This is suit brought to restrain Mr.,
Jones from using the Globe tradema and
the trademark designation "Winslow's
Corn" which Mr.. Jones still claims the
right to use, Notwithstanding the large
amount Of money which has already been en-
pended by various parties on this question.
Mr.. Jones claims that he has right to use
the words "Winslow's Corn" because it ap-
piled to process which was once patented,
the patent afterwards having been dropped
thereby making 1t public property. The
Portland Packing Company claims that
these words have been used by the packer
and known to tie trade as designating not
the process of the corn. but the output of
certain specified factories formerly managed
by Nathan Winslow & Co., and afterwards
by John Winslow Jones. A large amount of
testimony has been taken in this city, and it
is understood that the taking OF testimony
will be continued the present week in Balti-
more.
Arthur Stewart of Baltimore appears as
counsel for Jones, and Hon. W. l.. Putnam
and Hon. George E. Bird of this city, for the
Portland Packing Company.

which covers period of four or five years.
they have defeated both National League
and American Association clubs, and are fit
to cope with any minor league clubs In the
country. Portland in securing them, has
obtained decided advantage over the other
New England LeagIe cities, from the fact
that the team comes away inside the limit

is more than liable to capture the pennant.

Who stoIa the Cat.

1t was very popular conductor on the
Boston G. Maine railroad. who lives on
Green street in Lynn, who had favorte
cat. Puss, to the intense sorrow of the fam
lily, died. The ground was frozen SO hard as
to preclude burial, 50 the lamented feline
was neatly and carefully done up in brown
paper parcel to be dexterously dropped into
the cold waters of the Saugus when the con-
ductor's train crossed above Its surface. Un-
fortunately the brown paper parcel, so neat
ly tied, was left upon car seat for a mo-
ment. But, alas for Yankee curiosity, puss
was denied its proper burial; for when the
conductor fastened to perform the last sad
rites cat and bundle were gone. 1t is hoped
that whoever found that parcel did not visit
his or her wrath upon its inanimate con-
tents. but gave poor kitty Christian burial.
If lady secured the bundle of course such
anxiety Is needless.
