Curiosities.

John Holman has morstrosity
in the form OF Plymouth Rock
rooster. About two months ago the
fowl laccrated its craw by coming in
contact with a thorn wire fence. The
wounds have since healed with the
exception of one place where the
opening is still discernibIc. The
fowl pccks its corn with the rest of
the flock, but frequently during the
day it is seen drawing a kernel from
the aperture in its craw and again
swallowing it with apparent relish.
OF course it lays its egg regularly
every day. Mcssrs. Swab, Wertand

sweeping company streets, hauling
away refuse, and other pleasant (?)
tasks are the fate ofthc petty wrong

severe penalties are inflicted, lortci-
tnrc Of pay, reduction to the ranks,
ln the case of otliccrs), and dishonor-
able discharge are among gthcp punish
mentS which are dreaded by the man

One poor devil who fel lasleep at his
post of duty was sentenced to for

pcnitcntiary and, at the end of his
imprisonment, \ dishonorablc dis

Mr.. CRESCY'S ANSWER.
EDITORS PUBLIC OPINION:

EDITORS PUBLIC OPINION:
l had DO idea that my reply in late
issue of your paper to the query pro-
pounded by the Frankville cores
pendent of the DEBORAH Republican
would have raised such tempest in a
tea pot"
Now it is invariably true that nine.
tenths of people who attack the good
name of others through the public
press and attempt to hide their identity
under the thin veil of non de plume
are poltroon, towards and Ananiases.
We think the author of the article re-
ferred to has the longest genealogical
record of any man in Winnesheik
county You will find his great pro,
genitor's death recorded in the 5th
chapter of "The Acts of the Apostles. u
In answering the article referred tC
we shall confine ourselves to facts that
can be verified, as we think the public
have had enough fiction in the article
signed "Voters," etc.
Paragraph No. I-"Voter's" right

There is no joy in this world equal
to the happiness of motherhood. A
woman's health is her dearest possess
sion. Good looks, good times, happi-
ness, love and its continuance, depend
on her health. Almost all of the sick
ness of woman is traceable directly or
indirectly to some arrangement of the
organs distinctly feminine. Troubles of
this kind are often neglected because a
very natural and proper modesty keeps
woman away from physicians, whose
insistence upon examination and local
treatment is generally as useless as it is
common. DR., Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription will do more for them than 9S
doctors in 100. 1t will do more than
the hundredth doctor can unless he
prescribes it. 1t is a prescription of DR..

The cable connecting the La Crosse
Telephone company's line with the
Standard company's line has been laid
across the river. The work was start

pleted yesterday. La Crosse now has
connections with nearly hundred
points in Iowa and Minnesota which
are not reached by any other line, and
the importance of the fact to La
Crosse business men was evidenced by
the business transacted over the line
between Southern Minnesota points
and La Crosse yesterday. Exclusive
of ordinary conversations over the
line, over 100 orders to La Crosse bust
ness houses were sent in by merchants
at different towns on the line. The

importance, that he has failed to learn
by the results of the last election that
"Voter" and his henchmen do not
make up the Republican party of
Frankville township, and they were
the only ones referred to?
Fiction No. I-"NOw the caucus re-
ferred to by Mr.. Crescy was called and
notice posted, ETC., in the usual man.
ner." Now for the facts: We believe
there were three notices, not to exceed
three or four inches, written in fine
hand, posted in obscure places in the
village, where the ancient philosopher
who searched the streets with lighted
candle for an honest man would not
have seen them. No notice was sent
out for publication, nor was there a
notice sent out or posted outside the
village of Frankville; and so well had
the ring covered their tracks that not a
voter outside of the village knew there
was to be caucus held by any notice
given by the ring of such caucus. And
yet "Voter" says that ever Republican
who wished to be there was there, or
no one was to blame for his absence
but himself.
In the second paragraph he charges
me with making false statement.
Now this comes with poor grace from
one who has written long article
which is false from Alpha to Omega.
Fiction No. 2-"Now, Mr.. Editor,
the nominations were made by in
formal ballot at that caucus, and then
nominated by ballot" 1t is true that
the candidates were called out by in
formal ballot, but it is false that they
were nominated by ballot. A motion
was made to proceed to nominate
township officers by ballot, and then
in violation of all parliamentary asages,
without resembling former motion,
after two or more candidates for one
office were called out by informal bal
lot, motion was made to declare the
candidate who was so fortune as to be
on the slate, nominated by acclama-
ton And this method was followed
with all the candidates except the two
last, who were nominated by acclama.
ton, without the formality of an in
formal ballot.
Fiction No. 3-"Before the caucus
met it was an open secret that j. A.
Crescy desired denomination for
township clerk, but he had rendered
himself so 'distdsteful,' as he calls it, to
good many members of the Re.
publican party, etc."
Now the facts: 1t is easy to prove
by men whose truthfulness Is above re-
proach (no insinuation intended this
time for the voters of Frankville town
ship that for the last six months
utterly refused to have my name
brought before the caucus for renomi'
nation, and the writer of the above
fiction knew this fact. He further
states that -. A. Crescy had but one

ballot, presumably cast by himself"
etc. Well, my dear fellow, it did me
no more good than yours did ut the
late election.
Again he says: Had there been
any just cause, such as the nominees
not being good men, well qualified,
etc. We want to state that o. G..
Miller, James Birdsell, George Ander-
son and Tom Anderson are honorable
gentlemen, worth the support and re-
spect of the electors of the township,
and they had no connection with the
ring that nominated them. With re-
gard to the rest the electors have rem
dered their verdict.
For the last fourteen years l have
been intimately associated with the
electors of Winnesheik county, and
third of that time / have been hon.
ored by the LIST supervisor district as

rec of profit but of pleasure.
l. en- you talk of raising apples as
business, / don't believe it will pay
in this section. There is something in
the climate or soil, or something else
unknown TO me, that prevents it from
being a natural country for apples In
the first place the quality of apples
raised here are not up to the eastern
standard; in the next place trees of
the most hardy varieties are short
lived. Fifty years ago / worked for a
farmer in Connecticut, and helped to
set out row of apple trees beside n
stone wall. A year ago l passed by
those trees. Every one was alive and
thrifty and bearing good crops. So
that proves there are natural and I'M
natural locations for the successful
raising of apples.
But we need not despair. Iowa has
some advantages, if not in apple rails
ing, which / will mention later on.
Every section of our great country is
especially adapted to certain things,
and as it seems to be universal law of
nature, it is hard to change that law.
The most of New England is noted for
fruit, manufactures and sea fruit; Ver-
mont alone is noted for solitary
maple tree that furnishes guaranteed
pure Vermont maple sugar. to the
entire world; Pennsylvania is noted
for its coal, and Virginia for its tobacco.
The extreme South is noted for its cot
ton, rice and sugar cane, and Florida
for its oranges, alligators and sand;
Kentucky for its fine horses and cattle,
and Texas for billiards., northers, and
long-horned cattle California is noted
for it's tropical fruit, big ranches and
high-priced climate, and Utah for
Iarge-sized families and salt. Wash
ington is noted for damp, disagreeable
climate, and for coming money out of
Klondikers. Iowa is noted for its rich
soil, good water, healthy climate, fine
horses, cattle and hogs, its great dairy
and grain interests, its excellent
schools and general enterprise and
go-aheaditiveness of its people, and 1
am Ue,y sorry to say, for its tremen-
dous Republican majorities.
