AS there is no opposing candidate,
and will be none, the presentation of
the name of j. b. Smith as a candi-
date for reelection to the Office of Pro-
bate Judge is mere formality. He
has filled the important Office to which
he was chosen two years ago with
such modesty and yet with such con-
spicuous fidelity, fairness and ability,
that no wsrd of criticism has been
heard and there is no thought in the
mind ofany intelligent voter, of what
ever party, but that Judge Smith will
be renominated and reelected practic
ally by common consent. Well in
deed is it with the party and well
with the man when the verdict swell
done" is so cordial and unanimous.
JOHN E. BACON
Mr.. John E. Bacon, who announces
himself as candidate for the Office of
Clerk of the District Court, was born
in Bureau county, ILL.,, in 1854, and
lived there until 1875 when he came

STATE rICULTUKAL SOCIETY.

Our Horticultural meeting at lola
was opened at 1890, June 18th, with
prayer by Rev. NJ. F. King. Presi-
dent Wellhouse presided over The
meeting and Mayor r. b. Stevenson
in q few earnest remarks welcomed
the visitors to the hospitality of our
city and our homes where they were
entertained, to which President Well
house responded.
A very creditable display was made
of Horticultural products, flowers,
berries and vegetables far advanced
for the time of year. Mr.. Dibble dis
played sweet corn sufficiently matur-
ed for the table in Il days from plant
ing. Raspberries received from a
neighboring county were for examin-
alton and naming.
The discussions were of gen eral
nature. Acting Secretary Barnes
gave valued information on every
subject brought out. After boon a
paper of great merit by Mrs. G. NJ.
Nelson on "HOme Decorations" was
read and discussed. horticulture
for Amateurs, containing many val
liable hints to lovers of flowers and
those who can cultivate them, if not
more than a few pOtted flowers in a
window, was paper by Mrs. James
Mason. In these discussions Secre-
tary Barnes made some very inter-
esting suggestions concerning the
adOrnment of school grounds and
plans for onlisting the cooperation of
the pupils, to the end of not only
identifying the surroundings but the
education of the child in a valued and
pleasant study. Secretary Barnes
also read an exceedingly good paper
on "How to improve our county fairs"
that Will enlist the attention of Fair
Associations, We hope. Fine music
was rendered by our Mandolin Club
during the opening sessions.
An impromptu meeting was held in
the evening at the court house and
opened by a question box conducted
by Secretary Barnes and many i'm
portant points brought out. Vice
President Robinson of Eldorado gave
very good talk during the discus
sion on varieties of apples to plant,
and "What you plant For" and "Of
whom you Buy" seemed the two i'm
pOrtant questions that should be an
swered. President Wellhouse spoke
on the Commercial Orchardu and if
experience counts for anything Mr..
WellhOuse can talk to the POINT for
1897 acres of orchard are successfully
conducted by him. He recommends
but five varieties for q commercial or
chard. The Ladies Mandolin Club
and fine recitation by Miss Fannie
Norris varied the exercises and to
these young ladies our thanks are ex-
tended.

DR.. F. Nansen,s Return.-All will

DR.. F. Nansen's Return.-All will
rejoice to learn that Dr. Fridjof Nansen,
the Norwegian artic explorer, has re-
turned safely from the frozen north. He
left Christiania June "a, 1898, and sailed
as far as possible that season toward
the north pole reaching Sept %, lati'
tude rs degrees, so minutes north, where
the ship was closed in by ice. The great
foe which enveloped the ship slowly
drifted north westward during the
autumn and winter. Believing that the
ship would carry out the programme OF
the expedition, viz, to cross the
unknown polar basin, without approach
ing nearer to the pole, Dr. Nansen
decided with Lieut.. Johansen to leave
the ship in charge Of Capt. Svcrdrup and
the rest of the crew, and with dogs, to
explore the sea north as far as possible,
then to turn and make his way to Spitz
bergen, via Franz Josef Land.
They left the vessel, the Fran, March
Lat 81 degrees, 4minutes, north latitude,
and continued to 90 north on the ice foe
till April 8, when, by reason of the death
Of their dogs and the difficulties of
travelling they gave up any further
attempts to proceed north and turned
their steps south toward Franz Josef
Land, The highest latitude they reached
was &c degree, IA minutes, which is
about 4 degrees nearer the pole than any
one had ever before gone. All this time
they were on great island of ice, miles
and miles in extent, which was slowly
drifting in the polar sea. By Aug. &c
they reached land, spot in latitude 81
degrees, 10 minutes, where they deter
mined to winter, as there was no hope of
reaching Sptzbergen that year A house
w reconstructed OF stones, earth and
moss and covered with walrus hide and
snow. There they lived for nearly nine
months subsisting on raw bears meat
and blubber.
About the middle OF May they started
South and reached Franz Joseph Land
about the middle Of June, where they acct
dentally, or rather providentially, were
met by Captain Jackson, who in COM
mand OF the British steamer Windward,
had been carrying supplies to the British
North Pole expedition. We suppose the
ship in which DR.. Nansen sailed, with its
crew, is still in the great ice foe of the
polar sea, expected to drift to the eastern
coast of Greenland and sometime reach
there. We shall probably, in due time,
have full report from DR.. hansen of
what additions his voyage has given
him of knowledge in regard to the polar
region. These perilous expeditions do
not seem to add anything of practical
Importance to human knowledge Yet
it is probable that they will be continued
till some fortunate dscoverer shall reach
the pole.
