leter C. BlOcher.

Death has again invaded our ranks. A
committee has been appointed to express
our sorrow over the death OF our beloved
comrade, Peter C. Blocher, a bright and
shining light in our Post. His record i'm
the army was an honorable one, and OF
that his widow and children have reason
to be proud, but it is as a good husband
and father he will be remembered by his
family, and as good soldier, citizen and
patriot he will be regarded by his com
rades of the G. A. r. He was earnest,
honest and jealous in the discharge of all
his duties whether public or private.
ResotUed, That to his family we tender
our unfeigned sympathy, and join with
his friends and fellow citizens in exdrcs-
sions of regard and sorrow rarely felt OF
expressed on such occasions. May his
virtues be emulated, is the sentiment of
his comrades.
ResOlUcd, That these resolutions be pub
lished in tho REPUBLICAN and tho Findi-
Gator, and that our Charter be draped in
mourning for 30 days in memory of our
good comrade. SAMUEL ID. IRWIN,
S. j. SETLEY,
Committee.

An old settler of Harper county stop
ped in the other day and gave an inter
esting sketch of its organization. On
the 18th day on April II the city of An
thony was founded. In May or June of
rs mass meeting was held to decide
the question of organization. Not desir-
ing to put themselves into a position
where they might be held liable for the
payment of certain fraudulent bonds
which had in years gone by been impos-
ed upon the county, they decided not to
organize. Notwithstanding this a cen
sus was taken and on the census return
was an Unauthorized memorandum stat
ing that the people desired an organiza-
ton. Pursuant to this Governor Antho-
ny, now candidate for congressman at
large, appointed the officers, all of
whom with one exception, were inter
ested in the fraudulent bonds. Wheth-
er in return for their services or not,
Gov. Anthony received presents of lots
IN the city of Anthony. Those ac-
quainted with the style of those days
may draw their own conclusions.
