Next
Saturday
Will be the
Fourth of july
To all practical
Intents and purposes.
Sunday is really the
Fourth, but it won't do to
Shoot off fire crackers on that
Sacred day, SO Saturday is the proper
Time to let our enthusiasm boil
Over, and make the great
American eagle scream. Let
Us give the old bird another
Boost and proclaim to all
| The residents of the World
And Atlantic County
That another Fourth
1Of. July is at hand
{And must be duly
celebrated.

Henfarmer to Duckfarmer.
Swamp-Edge-Slope,
Leedses Pint on the Great Boy,
June 25, 1897.


Editor of the PRESS
Excuse me for boring your readers,
but desire to acknowledge the frater-
nal claim of Uriah Duckfarmer. The
Henfarmer's heart is warm and from
it's innermost depths he would hold
sweet converse with his brother. This
time, o PRESS, will afflict you, then
will / drop this pen into the ash-heap,
there to rust it's life away.
Cherish not vain hopes, 0 my brother.
The zenith of our fame is past. Like
Cincinnatus to the plOw, like Washing
ton to Mount Vernon's broad acres, like
Hayes to his chicken coop, SO have we
retired, you to the duck-ponds of the
Nacut, / to the salt marshes of the Great
Bay; but,-O fell ingratitude, thou
voice of republics mo popular clamor
demands our recall to the broad arena
of public service, as in the cases OF Gin
cinnatus and Washington. Laborious
was our ascent to the dizzy pinnacle OF
famt; brief was our triumphant foot
hold upon that dazzling height sudden
and destructive was our fall therefrom.
Like WoIseley we slowly gathered our
selves together, viewed the wreck of our
youthful hopes, and sighed "long fare
well to all our greatness"
As Tyler was triumphantly called
forth from his retirement, and unani-
mously elected road supervisor of his
native tow nship, 80 have we experienced
temporary recall, you as township
clerk, and l as postal clerk and assist
ant to the tax collector but be not
deceived, o my brother-let no vain
hopes swell your bosom. Like Napo-
lions hundred days, our short return to
fame but deepens the oblivion into
which we have fallen. Faithfully and
well have we served our country, but
our bright career has left no flaming
trail across the dull gray sky of human
remembrance. Never again will our
mighty Uncle call us forth. Never will
the corridors of Congress reverbrate
with your impassioned eloquence cal
ling for those glorious days when every
ox-cart shall be loaded to overfowing
with the beautiful silvery metal, when
grab games tor big white dollars shall
supersede stick-frog and corner-ball,
when every duckling that sees the light
of day on Nacut's slopes shall battle in
tub of silver, when every spring
chicken on Swamp Edge Farm shall
have coop of silver maple, when every
sickly tomato plant shall have pala-
tial residence to protect it from the
froste, when-but human contemplation
falls before the mighty prospect.
Never will Senatorial dignity be ex-
ercised in listening to my soft praise of
the now elusive gold, which sometime
will flow through our land, beautiful
mellow, yellow stream, healing our
eyes and gladdening our hearts and
filing our pockets with happiness.
How are the mighty fallen! How
ere age, ugliness and obscurity fastened
their grip upon us, have disported with
the Nymphs and Naiads upon Nacut's
lovely bosom, or played croquet with
many a dazzling Venus" on Captain
French's lawn, All mel All mel Fare
we'll, long farewell to all our great
ness! Beriah Henfarmer.

He DOESN'T Like He
Last week we did what every other
newspaper does, occasionally, sent out
a few sample copies with the view of
increasing the circulation of the PRESS.
All were sent in strict compliance with
the provisions of postal laws covering
such cases and enacted expressly for
that purpose. If the person to whom
the paper is sent does not desire to be-
come q permanent subscriber, all he has
| to do is to notify the publisher of that
fact. Ninety-nine out of hundred per-
sons will convey that information in a
gentlemantly way, while the other one
always siezes the opportunity to make
an ass of himself. As illustrating the
latter assertion we append the following
contents of postal card received at the
Press Office on Monday from Mr..
Thomas j. Strickland, of Port Republic.
Ofcourse Mr.. Strickland has not sense
enough to know that he has laid him.
self liable to indictment under the United
States postal laws for sending an insult
ing letter on an open postal card, but
that is not our fault, and we print his
communication exactly as received with
its elegant diction, capitalization, SPELL

Our irrate critic is respectfully inform
ed that the Pleasantville PRESS is not
printed or edited solely for the purpose
of pleasing a barnyard blackguard ''of

intelligent people who encourage US to
try to make good weekly newspaper.
If Mr.. Strickland does not like The PRESS
there is no law compelling him to read
it, but it would be in better taste for
him not to publicly expose his ignorance
and his bad manners. With the aid of a

There is nothing to indicate an early

shadows anything. II is that loaning rates
