and an occasional rattlesnake. The people there
protect themselves from the jiggers by strong
tobacco or arnica, both of which are fatal to the
tormenting mite. The hogs are as plentiful as
ever but many of them are dying in the forests
from disease peculiar to swine that roam the
woods. 1t is good grass country and splen-
didly adapted to raising cattle. There is an
abundance of fruit of all kinds. Peaches are
plentiful from June to October, the various
varieties coming on in continuous succession.
Great yields of potatoes and corn reward the
labors of the husbandman. Three crops can be
southern variety that will not ripen here. Con-
siderable wheat is raised but the yield is not
first class; oats are a great success, and yield
bountlfully. The present crop is enormous and
is now ready for the reaper. Apples are grown
in abundance, and the soil also supports the
most delicious varieties OF pears. Grasses of
all kinds take kindly to the soil and are easily
domesticated. The native grass is called Jap
| anese clover, and is the first to put in an ap.
pearance, The Judge thinks this part of Ar
kansas is the acme of agricultural and grazing
advantages. and cannot understand why people
will persist in going to the uncert ainties of such
states as Kansas and Nebraska, when such q
rich country as this almost touches them with
marvellous vegetation as they pass it by. How
ever, it is being rapidly settled by northern i'm
migrants, particularly from Illinois and In
diana.

A case is reported from Windham, that if
the statements are true. is anything but credit
to that town. According to our information,
family named Moon, consisting of man, wife,
and two children. one nursing baby, and the
other two years old boy, recently moved there
from Bedford The husband is said to be
worthless fellow, much addicted to drink, and
habitually neglected his family. week or so
ago he went to Newton Falls, and as usual, got
on a spree, and after returning home for one
night. went to Mantua, and has not been heard
of in Windham since The woman was left

and with no money to supply the wants of her.
self and children. 1t came to point of star
vaiion or theft. and she chose the latter, going
to the cellar of one Ebart, who lives about one
mile distant. from which she took small guam
tity of milk and butter with which to preserve
the lives of herself and children. For this she
was arrested, and by Squire Angel committed
to the County Jail, charged with burglary and
larceny. Judge Robinson humanely ordered
her to be taken to the County Infrmary. She
was pitiful looking object. and it would seem
that the people of Wiudham forgot their hu-
manity, by not providing for her wants and
substituting the rigor of legal procedure for
the charity of common kindness. She is said
to be an industrious woman, always ready to
work when she can fine employment.

The hum of the mower is heard in the land
and with favorable weather the clank of the
harvester will be heard before another weeks
end. From present indications. the farmer will
be rewarded for his labors with bountiful crops.
But, if DR.. HiXson's statistics. as given here
last Friday evening, are correct. the farmer will
have to accept less for them. Great interest was
taken in the eloquent address. which called out
warm debate. the Republican Up. Committee
engaging therein with great earnestness; ad-
mitting the corruption of public officers, and
the ownership of the legislature by monopoly,
and that representatives receive more money
from trusts and monopolies than their salaries
amount to, but say, what are you going to do
about it? Your men are from one or the other of
the old parties and they are just as dishonest as
the rest of mankind. and can be bought just as
easy" The man or party that would indorse
such sentiment admits its own shame and dis
honor. and will reap the fruits of its iniqufty.
History proves to us that there has not been a
time when ALL men were devoid of moral char
acter and the party that knows that the cause
| of the present depression (and consequent or
ganization of the farmers) is brought about by
class legislation procured by the corrupt use of
money, and still persist in sticking to its sins,
and thus further depressing and enslaving them

1t Made Angels Weep.

A sad and pitiful sight Was witnessed
on Pryor street this morning.
While Mr.. John B. Goodwin, DR.. Hol.
iday and representative Of the Journal
were standing at the corner of Pryor and
Hunter streets an old lady and young
man passed.
The young man was drunk. Around
his waist was his mothers arm, that arm
that had nurtured and protected aud
shielded him from his infancy, and which
would still protect him when he was
walking under the shadows of sim
Indifferent to the gaze Of the people
they passed, the woman was too weak to
steady herself against the sway'ng OF the
stalwart youth at her side, as he stag
rered from side to eide in his drunken
walk.
It was es sad spectacle as is likely TO
be ever seen on the public streets.
But the arm of IT, : sged mother never
relaxed its hold, although at times she
was nearly thrown upon the pavement.
Up the streets she went, guiding the
uncertain steps of her boy as she did
when he toddled by her side.
She guided him safely home, perhaps
and maybe it is the last heartache that
he will give her. ahi never again will
she be called upon to support his reellng
form upon the public thoroughfares.-

Deafness Can't be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an innamed condi-
tiou of the mucous lining OF the Eusta'
chan Tube. When this Tube gets in
famed you have rumbling so1nd or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to It's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inilamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that wc cannot cure by taking Halls Ca
