EDITOR REPORTER:--I mail you with
this letter copy OF q Springfield pa
per. You will find in it several columns
OF local lads. = You can judge by this
what kind OF business town this is.
Not much like luka One firm here
does moie advertising in local papers
than all OF your town, and there are
several such firms. There is another
paper in town, same size Of the one |
send you, which does equally as good
business. This one you see is conduc-
ted by woman.
Well, these women here are going
ahead organizing the young people
into the Loyal Temperance League.
This means death after awhile to the
licensed saloon. for this evil exists
now solely because the people want
information. Did the peop le believe
as they voted under the Impulse of the
moment for Sam Jones, that the liquor
dealer is as dangerous man as Rube
Burrows. they would Immediately rise
up and vote prohibitory law against
the said business. They would not
l.stop to make an investigation to see
if prohibition prohibits they would
not ask II the way is practicable even,
but would make the law for their own
protection, and then elect men to office
who would make it practicable.
just word here about that oft re-
peated lie that "there is as much
drinking where the open saloon is
prohibited. 1t is my opinion that
there is as much drinking in one week
in this town as in six months In Iuka.

NOTICE TO INVENTORS.

There was never a time in the histo-
ry Of our country when the demand for
inventions and improvements in tho
arts and sciences generally was so
great as now. The conveniences of
mankind in the factory and Workshop.
the household, on the farm, and in Of
fetal life, require continual accessions
to the appurtcnances and implements
of each in order to save labor, time
and expense. The political change in
the administration Of government does
not affect the progress of the American
inventor, who being on the alert, and
ready to perceive the existing def
ciencies, does not permit the affairs Of
government to deter him from quickly
conceiying the remedy to overcome
existing discrepancies. Too great care
can not be exercised in choosing u
competent and skillfui attorney to pre-
pare and prosecute an application for
| patent. Valuable interests have been
lost and destroyed in innumerable in
stances by the employment Of incom-
petent counsel, and especially Is this
advice applicable to those who adopt
the mo patent, no pay" system. In
ventOrs who entrust their business to
this class of attorneys do so at immi-
nent risk, as the breadth and strength
of the patent is never considered in
view of a quick endeavor to get an al
lowance and obtain the fee then due.

BURNT MILLS.

All hail to the REPORTER and it's
many readers. l do heartily agree
with my friend G. NJ. that every citi-
zen and especially the teachers ought
to take their county paper. But there
are some who will not patronize their
home paper for the same reason that
they always oppose every movement
to advance the social interests of their
fellow men. We have some chronic
grumblers W no are always finding
some faults to their county paper. But
remember, you old sore head, that it
would take a Vanderbilt to produce
weekly good paper without home
patronage. So if you want your coun-
ty paper to be second to none in the
State, lend a helping hand to Brother
Chambers, and he will give you Just
such paper as our county demands,
and one you will be proud OF. As for
myself. | am one of the few teachers
OF this county who takes his county
paper, and it is a source of pleasure
to me to read the letters it contains
from A. p r. and G. T. II who have
labored SO earnestly in the past in the
schools of this county. and whose in
huence will be felt for generations to
come. will not say l could not do
without the Reporter. but I'm not 90
ing to do without it. So MIR. Editor
you may put me down as subscriber
Tor your paper till l cease TO be a citi-
zen OF your county. J. +. o.
