alises Huch Benefit.

On Tuesday the editor of The
COURIER accompanied the county
commissioners inspected the new
bridge over the Big Sioux. neal Pat
Walsh's place, FIVE miles east Of
town. In tie party was Engineer
Wakefield Of Sioux City, who was
employed to figure out All the de-
tails Of the bridge 10 see whether
they came up with the requirements
in the specifications. The spot up
on which the bridge is built, seems
to have been especially made by
nature for just such q purpose, tho
approaches on both sidesbeing not to
exceed 20 feet. The span Of the
bridge coyers $50 feet and is built
by s. NJ. Hewett & Co. of Mime
apolis. The contract price for the
same waJ tl645, Of which sum
Union county pays $500 only, the
citizens along the road and towns
people pay $500 and the balance is
made up by Plymouth county. So
far as Union county is concerned it
is a very chenp bridge, in 40 mcuh
MS it cost the county only $500.
And right here il might be stated
that in no county in Sonth Dakota
could there be found a more enter
prising lot Of farmers than along the
line Of travel fran Elk Point to the
bridge. john Tracey, Pat Harrity,
Jr., and John Walsh are rustlers.

it is certainly very important to the
client to have the right sort of jury
for his especial case. Under our
present system, then, one reason why
jury can be so ragged is because the
intelligent citizens often fail to do
their duty when jury is being made
up, those who would make etfic. ent
iurymen, cut for the door, and leave
the professional jurors and ''camp
followers" from whose ranks the
Sheriff is to draw. It is true that it
is somewhat unpleasant to be caught
up unexpectedly and made to serve
on jury but don't every good citizen
owe it to his country, to make sacri-
fees for the sake of securing justice.

The Georgia farmers, says an ex-
change, have within the past year
been giving more attention to raising
home supplies than formerly. A
Macon wholesale house reports that
it has sold up to this time this year
but one car load of meat. TO between
fifty and seventy five Car loads sold
up to the same time last year. When
similar reports come from all meat
importing towns 1t will be proof that
Southern farmers are getting on solid
ground and living at home.

Last week the FISHERMAN & FAR
MER copied from the Perquimans
Record 8 rumor that "there is to be
$50 thousand dollar hotel built in
Edenton in short" We then asked
the question "where will this hotel
be built in Edenton and by whom"
The Record has failed to answer
the above question, but it says:
Yes, we beard the runner" OF
- rise, they heard it, We did not
doubt that, neither did We suppose
the Record would publish a thing
they had not heard. But the ques-
ton remains unanswered.
The Record also says: eve are a
little surprise that one who could
swear to things that never existed
should not have heard the rum0r."
Bro. Babb. go slow! You should
be the last man Oh earth to rake up
things of personal character so very
damaging to yourself. You better
let the past rest. The verdict of a
ministers trial and the action of the
Chowan Baptist Association should
be sufficient.
Again the Record says: eve
will wager pipe that II it had been
anything connected with the col3red
column the FISHERMAN & FARMER
would have known all about it,"
We suppose the Record means the
above as a slur. The FISHERMAN &
FARMER carries a column Of news es-
pecially for the benefit of our co!ored
people, edited by very clever, gen.
teel colOred man. The FISHERMAN
& FARMER has nearly three hundred
good paying coIored subscribers. and
We try to give them full value for
their money. The black mans dol
lar is as good with us as the white
mans cash, and just SD long as the
