and currency questions. They do
not agree on the bank question of
the reorganization of the backs.
They do not agree on the question
OF the reorganization of the courts.
&C. There are tens of thousands
OF democrats who are like Mr..
Cleveland, they cannot agree with
Mr.. Bryan.
Before the turkey season opened
hunters held an eye on the haunts
Of q large flock of wild turkeys on
the ridge north of town. When
the season opened on Monday
morning they were among the
iowles before they had blinked the
him from their eyes. Bang! bang!
and Philo Pannabaker had two:
Mord. Hover bagged two; Samuel
Mccormick shot two; William OBJ
erholtzer shot 1; DIR. Rodgers shot
1; James Banks shot 2; Irwin Bea-
shore shot 1; Ellsworth Dunn shot 1.
By that time those of the tur-
keys that were not shot were fully
awake and scattered and have
siace been playing wild turkey for
all it is worth.
President Cleveland had the
business of the country badly
wrecked. Bryan if elected will
wreck things more than Cleveland
did. The loss to the business un-
der Cleveland was more than the
cost Of putting down rebellion.
The lOss was greater than all the
tariff duties from George Washing
ton to Cleveland. Wool went
down from 3Octs to 12cts entailing
a loss of s41 ,OOO, 900 to the wool
dealers; entailing a loss of 371 600, :
600 on sheep owners; entailing a
loss of $3.50, 900, 900 on sheep ranch
owners. During 3 years of his ad-
ministratiOn it was child's play to
what will happen if Bryan be
comes president with supporting
Congress.
Last week before the hunting
season opened a man named Col
lege and man named BeastOn
were hunting in Lack township.
They heard the crack of several
guns and went in the direction of
the sound and came closely upon a
man named Robson and a man
named Rice who had done the
shooting. They had shot four
squirrels and turkey. Robson
and Rice heard someone coming
and did not want to be caught with
game in their possession 80 they
proceeded to conceal the trophy of
the chase under leaves. While
they were thus engaged College
and BeastOn came near enough to
get sight of something moving on
the ground among the leaves. 1t
was Robinson and Rice covering
their game. College raised his
gun and pulled the trigger. The
gun snapped twice. He grabbed
Beaston's gun and pulled the trig-
ger of both barrels and sent the
shot all over the bodies of the two
other young men. The young men
that were shot will recover. l.
lNHarry Focht engaged in Eshel-
mans bakery in Patterson, was
shot last Monday morning while
hunting on what used to be Ad.
ans ridge but now Guss' ridge in
Walker township. He and Charles
Bender and Ray MAXWELL had
that morning gone to the woods be-
fore daylight and when dawn came
they began to hunt. FOcht had
dropped a squirrel and got down
an one knee to get a shot under a
limb at another when he himself
was shot full in the breast and alb
dOmen by man standing directly
in front about 25 or 80 steps away.
The man was apparently about 40
years old; had dark hair, dark
moustache and dark katy hat. He
came close and FOcht said to him,
"Why did you shoot me-" He
answered, 81 didn't shoot you,
shot the other way" He sort OF
grinned and turned on his heel and
walked away. A boy apparently
about - years of age accompanied
him. After the shooting FOcht
shot two gray squirrels and two
pine squirrels on his way home.
Arriving at home his breast and
, abdomen were examined. Twen-
ty-fOur shot hit him. Six shot
were found in his stockings. One
finger received a shot. The stock
of his gun was perforated with two
shot. If the man who did the
shooting had been closer, he would
have killed the young man.
