CORN YIELD CUT DOWN
By the Invasion of Jones' COrnfieId by
SWitzer's Cattle.

SWitzer's Cattle.
Calvin Switzer and William Jones are
two farmers doing business near Auburn
Monday Switzer's cattle got into Jones'
cornfield and lowered somewhat the esti-
mated yield of the field. The latter took
them up and when Switzer called to
claim his own refused to give them up
until he was paid for the damage done.
At this the two engaged in a wrestling
match and Calvin bounced a good sized
piece Of lime rock on the old mans head.
A warrant was sworn out for Switzer's
arrest, but before it was served he came
to town and pleaded guilty before JUS
tice Guy to assault. His fine will be an
nounced Saturday morning at 9 o'clock.

Tucson Star: Hon. Rochester
Ford, after an absence from the
city of several months, returned
yesterday and will resume the
practice of law which, by the way, he
had not abandoned The greater part
of his vacation was spent at his former
home in st. Louis, though for the past
six weeks he has been in Washington
looking after matters before the United
States supreme court. Mr. Ford's
comparison of the east with Arizona
for purposes of residence is only re-
petition of those of other travellers
who have returned earlier. He is glad
to get back. One thing that particu-
larly struck him on his return was the
appearance in arid Arizona of great
and recent humidity. He had just
come from the great middle and east
ern states, parched and rainless, where
water for the engines of locomotives is
obtained with difficulty.

He was sleeping near a window in his
house east of the depot, and although
not more than two feet from it, the

The complete eradication of the evils that

the complete eradication of the evils that
for long time have existed under the
very nose of the officials. The results of
the good work of the Washington police on
Sunday point in this direction. There can
be no question that the disreputable char
acters who frequent Jackson City and
Alexander Island regard Washington as
their living place. that they cross the river
merely to evade the strict laws of the Dis
trict ard that they have hitherto felt Sc
cure as long as they carried on their vio-
lations of the laws of decency and morality
on the soil Of Virginia. 1t must be admit
ted that for a time 1T has appeared as
though the Virginia authorities had been
giving the gamblers and other questiona-
Die characters every reason to believe that
they were secure on the south shore of the
river. The menace is greater to the Dis
trict than to Virginia; the colony of speak
easies, faro banks pool rooms and other
resorts has been more dangerous to. the
morality Of Washington than to that of
Alexandria. This city has had the most to
lose, and yet it has been practically help
less without cooperation from the Vir-
ginia authorities Now that there seems
to have been an awakening on the other
side, there is an excellent prospect that
the community at the end of the bridge
may be squeezed out of existence by the
meeting of the two legal forces. If the
Virginia officials will drive the offenders
On the bridge and the Washington police
will drive them back they will undoubtedly
soon come to terms. The District, how
ever, ought not to be put to the expense
of failing the offenders; they should be
quartered in the institutions of the state
whose negligence so far has permitted
them to flourish in her borders. 1t might
be best to escort them out of the state
and the District and warn them that to
return would be to secure accommodations
in the workhouse.

The public will receive with pleasure the
intelligence that the postal authorities are
proposing new and improved form OF
design for postal money orders. Perhaps
the word improved as used above is super
fuous, since any change must, in the very
nature of things. be an improvement The
present form is just about as bad as can
be. 1nconvenient In size, awkward in
shape. hopelessly ugly in design, slovenly
in typographical execution. and printed on
poor paper. it would be discreditable as a
ticket for pawn shop; as a government
issue 1t is simply disgraceful. Mr.. Bissell
cannot make the change too soon, nor too
radical. If he has the necessary authority,
1t is to be hoped he will exercise it before
he delivers up the portfolio of Office to his
successor. 1t would be just about the best
souvenir he can give the country at part
ing.

Coming after while,
Might as well get ready now
To greet 'em with a smile.
Heavy hang the clouds today,
Chilly falls the rain,
Leafless limbs nod mournfully
To the winds refrain.
But the sunshine dearer seems,
For the clouds and chill.

Blythe notes when they trill.
So cheer up, for better days
Are bound to come along;
Might as well get r0hdy now
To greet 'em with song.

rives wherever it is going. This will make
it much pleasanter for the men than to be

that fusion, the allowing Of any other party

political suicide. disgraeeful scramble for

Racing for the Cup.

Far out on the pralrics though
Kansas is, u lively interest In the
yachting race is evidenced. The peo-
pie all want to see the Defender win.
The "Amcrica's" cup for which the
yachts are racing was won from Eng
land in 1851 by the schooner yacht
America. England has never been
able to get II back. After the Amer
lea came the Magic, which defeated
England in 1870, followed In 1871 by
the Columbia In 1875 and 1876 the
victory fell to the Madeline. And
these initial victories were followed
by the still greater triumphs won by
the Mischief, the Puritan, the May
flower, the Volunteer and the Vigil
liant. The betting in New York has
been 300 TO $40 on the Defender, the
American. No sporting event OF the
year will attract equal attention.
The match this year between Valky-
rte III and Defender will be compris-
ed of the best three out Of five races.
All will be started from the Sandy
Hook lightship, which is seven and
sevcn-eighths miles outside of Sandy
Hook.
The Defender won the first race
easily, In the second it was struck
by the Yalkyrie and given the race
on its protest, The third it sailed
alone, the owner Of the Valkyrie re-
fusing to start. 1t will be interesting
to see what the result Of the quarrel
ing going on is to be.

A Straw on Sheriff.

1t will be remembered that a dis
gruntled individual put out some
papers in this county for signature a
while ago. They pledged the signers
to attend a convention to be called at
Abilene not later than Oct. 4 to nom
mate a third candidate for sheriff and
to support him. In Wheatland town
ship where Nick Robson lives the
paper received more signatures than
anywhere in the county. There were
10 names, Of these 1 were Populists
and Republicans, one Of whom has
since left the county. This is but a
straw but it indicates that the
simeon is not blowing in Nick
Robson's direction very fast.

Ingalls, whole career before the public

Not only is he political fraud, but
he has built up bis splendid rcputa-
ton as an orator by using quota
lions stolen from French and Spanish
writer's. While he poses as the
soldiers friend and is making stren-
uous effort to secure the soldier vote,
yet his senate record shows that he
claimed, in a bitter and yindictiye
speech, that 20 per cent of the pen
sions were obtained fraudulently.
While posing as u Republican of Re-
publicans, yet in 1865 he ran for
Office on a platform that declared the
war for the Union a failure. Febru-
airy %, 1891, he held the Republicans
responsible for the decentralization Of
silver and declared that they had been
hypnotized by Wall street. Then he
he had set his sails to catch the

Stand bv Your PARTY.

We received communication from
P. H. Halleck, chairman a the Re-
publican central committee, which
we cheerfully publish for the careful
perusal Of our readers. He strikes
the key note when he says: ave
can not afford to make any conces-
sions this year OF promit local dis
satisfaction or personal prejudice to
swerve us from the path Of party
duty"
Since the Democrats endorsed the
Pop ticket we know where to find
them. The lines are drawn and our
duty as loyal Republicans is plainly
marked out. We can gain nothing
by voting for Democrats who are
fighting us all along the line.
The word non-partisan sounds very
smooth and looks well in print but
when it is applied to convention in
the interest Of a Democrat where no
Republican need apply, it don't sound
well in the ears Of Republicans.
We are not advocating the claims
Of any particular candidate for
judicial honors but we claim the
right to maintain that twenty-three
years is long enough for a Democrat
to have the honors and emollments
belonging to a judge in district
which is overwhelmingly Republican.
Our sister counties Morris and
Marion are a unit for a Republican
candidate for Judge OF the Eighth dis
trict and the Republicans of Geary
and Dickinson can not afford to create
dissenslon and discord by supporting
a Democrat this fail for this import
ant Office.
Republicans OF Dickinson county,
we will have to stand alone and
battle against the combined force of
our political enemies; let us 60
bravely 10 the front and touching
elbows with the Republicans Of the
other counties in this district we will
march to a glorious victory in Novcm-
