Otwell Outings.

A Theodore Cleveland Munchausen, he
OF the great Icing qualifications, in his
last weeks Press items seems much
worried, after calling others nickmames
TO be called cleveland" man whom
he claims he favors abdominally. He
lays no claim to favoring old Grover in
the head. D! no, Theo. only has a
brainless knot. He admires Growers
Americanism; he says his notorious
seduction of Maria Halpin, his hiring an
army substitute, and after the war end
ed letting the substitute die in the Door
house, this is the kind Of Americanism
this bombastic freak Of nature admires
and lauds to the skies. We are glad this
ranting gold toad bellied tumble bug has
come out and told us OF his cherished
idol. II he had done this long ago it
would have saved him the trouble OF
raising racket with the Hadlock bows
and calling them vicious names. He
claims to be raiser Of Berkshire hogs,
shepherd dogs, poultry, roosters of the
active variety, etc. he might, also,
say that he is a breeder of strife and
contention in his neighborhood grand
jury hcnchman, turmoil producer, a
general meddler in other peoples bust
ness. Sometime ago he rushed into
print accusing some of the saints" of
theft. Not long since he praised them
as Otwell's most respected citizens. He
accuses us of sitting around waiting for
something to turn up. While he sits
ar~und on his Cleveland avoirdupois
waiting for his mother in law to draw
her pension. We write our own items
we do not GET sore headed defeated can
didates to help us out. This splenic
species Of compost fungi poses az Re-
publican, and frankly says he il Cleve-
landite, whose name he will never deny.
He intimates that we get material aid at
election times. This accusation Sir Gro
yer knows il one Of his own foul dirty
lies, Of which his sinking otter slide
mouth is fully fully qualified for. He
also charges or hints that we stay away
from the polls on election day. This il
another Of his dirty i ing illusions, OF
which he seems full from heart to rind.
He seems to have an especial hatred
for township trustee Louis Traylor.
We think that when our township trus-
tee finds that he cannot attend to TIE
townships business he perhaps will give
Mr.. Cleveland call, well knowing his
extensive experience in attending to
other peoples business, and neglecting
his own. This seems to have been his
best grip since he entered manhood or
doghood.
THE editor of the COURIBn wonders IL this
subject Is worth all this powder.
A revival meeting is in progress here,
conducted by Rev. DIR. Goodwin and Rev.
Alex. Carnes, and much interest Is be-
ing manifested. crowded house and
good order prevails every night. DR..
Goodwin interests the people with an
able and excellent sermon every night.

The Grand Army Post at this place
gave free dinner last Saturday. A
table was spread equal to Delmonico's
best the citizens turned out en- masse 10
greet the brave old soldier BOYS, and
help them to enjoy the feast Of good
things. After dinner public installa ton
Of the Post was in order, and then stor.
les Of the war by the soldiers, and thus
. day passed, long TO be remembered by
oil who we're there. MACK
