Our good friend, Sol" Royce, and
his two faithful young court house
"FridayS," are accustomed to talk so
learnedly about ''jerrymandering"
that we took occasion last week to
jolly them a little by spelling the
word as they pronounce it. To our
surprise they didn't "catch on, but
fell right into the trap, and proceeded
to make fun of the HERALD for mis-
spelling the word, while all the time
they continue to miSpronounce it.
Now, boys, we don't mind telling you
on the quiet that the word is combi-
nation of Vice President Gerry's name
and the latter part of the word sal
amander." Therefore, to pronounce
it correctly, you must give the G the
hard sound. Out of respect to your
wonderful knowledge of history, we
shall not venture to repeat to you
anything more of this story of the Or
igin of the word, but suggest shat you
look it up, along with those famous
Latin quotations of yours. And by
the way, it would be more to the
point, if not more to your credit, to ex-
plain about that booze with which
you tried to carry the third district,
composed of "NINE COUNTIES.

The little boss never said a word
about that bridge business, in his

the HERALD meant him, (Hageman.

to swollow that story? The HERALD
specifically said the republican boss, "

dacity) to come oEzzand deny the
matter or acknowledge his control
over the two republican members of

around and tries to make the popu-

tells Hageman that the HERALD is

smooth, but if he catches John Hage-

If this manuscript does not find its
way to the waste basket before publ
cation, we will endeayOr to chronicle
d few of the many events Of our rust
ling little village and surrounding
country. First Of all, we would like
to see this section Of the country rep
resented in the columns Of the HER
AID at all times. 1t is the aim of our
country editors to furnish theiE read
erS with home news, and in order to
do this, the news from every nook
and corner of Phillips county should
be carefully prepared and sent to the
editors by some one who delights in
pushing the quill.
There has been a large acreage of
wheat SoWn in the surrounding 'coun-
try, and it never locked finer at this
time of the year.
There is an abundance Of rough
feed around here-such as alfalfa,
kaffir corn, cane, corn fodder and wild
hay, which can be had at prices rang
ing from So to ST per ton.
Several herds of cattle from the
eastern part of the state have been
brought here to winter.
Our hay growers have shipped sew
eral cars Of baled hay from here to
eastern points, for which they receiv-
ed on an average of $40 per ton.
Old corn can be had at our eleva-
tor at 65c per bushel, new corn at 55c
and wheat 80.

little building just north of Jake

that the greatest objection most edi-
