BUT DON'T YOU CALL THAT PLOWIN' EN- SOME.

Mr.. J. H. Hitchcock, who lives about fifteen
miles southeast of Fitzgerald on nice farm,
was bedding cotton land THE other day, putting
two burrows to the row. He bedded six acres
in little less than day and quarter.
Well some will say that he had burrows
about five feet apart, but wait moment; they
were only three and one half feet wide. He
came from Mansfield, Newton County, Georgia.
So hurrah for Mansfield! We hope more of the
Middle Georgia people will come down here.

FAVORITISM.

Reproducing our editorial or thursday, on
the question of "Favoritism," Artie Jones' little
paper, The People, speculates as follows:
"Can it be that the Colonel takes excep-
ton to the construction of that sewer for
the Garbutt and Burkhart buildings, or
does he object to the grading of L. 3.
Prices Main street property with Lee
street soil hauled by the ctys mules and
niggers; or is it possible he scents danger
in the awarding Of that collectorsh1p to
Mr.. Hussey, the business associate OF Aid
erman PARROT?
Permit us to suggest, Colonel, that
were your suspicious of graft" well found
ded in the 1st count, the charge could only
be substantiated as half graft as the
property owners stood half the expense
themselves. Now as to Prices lots-the
lots need grading and, Tom, so we are
informed, is paying for the team and mig
gers, and as to the dirt, If the city should
need any in the future, 1t doubtless can
obtaint some where and how and at some
price.
ION count three, it is true Mr.. Hussey,
the citv collector, is business associate OF
Alderman PARROT, and even If these gen
temen share equally in the emolument OF
the office, the principle involved would be
the only source of criticism, for no one GER
tain1y deems $18 per month at all exnorb-
liant as to price.
"Wonder what the Colonel does allude
tor"
We did not allude to anything in particular,
but to all flirting with the taxpayers money in
general.
The drainage sewer referred to is small
matter although the precedent is dangerous.
The filling in of the private property on
South Main street is more serious precedent,
and vastly more expensive to the city. In the
first place, the work has never been authorized
by the council. In the second place, one tax
payer is being damaged for the benefit of an
other At least Lee street taxpayer went to the
council to protest. and his protest seemed TO
have been respected at the time, but the next
day the work was resumed. But even granting
that the street is being improved, it certainly
was not urgently in need of the grading and
could have waited until the very necessary
street work needed in other parts of the city is
com pleted. To be right candid, Gas everybody
ought to be- there seems to be but one excuse
for disturbing the grade of Lee street at this
time, and that is to reduce to minimum the
cost of filling in private lots, which would cost
ordinarily, if the dirt was bought in the usual
way and hauled the average distance, many
times what it cost to take it out of Lee street,
half block away. There is but one extenuating
circumstance connected with this ugly affair,
and that is that the owner of these lots is
mighty good man and was, as long as he lived
here one of our most enterprising citizens, and
is probably ignorant of what his friends are
doing in his name.
AS to the collectorshp, we had not thought
of that until mentioned by the People editor.
Certainly the work is being done cheap enough
and the collector is competent man, although
a business partner of one of the aldermen which
certainly is not legal inhibition or moral stigma.

in the northwestern counties where 1t was
about two degrees below normal.
Heavy showers occurred quite generally
in eastern counties where the rainfall
mostly exceeded one inch and ranged from
two to more than three inches in con-
siderable areas. In most central and west
ern counties the rainfall was less than
half an inch.
Haying and threshing progressed rapidly
except in eastern counties Friday and Sat

During the week ending August 2, CEN

usual heat. while unseasonably cool
states; elsewhere the temperature was
favorable. The rainfall was excessive and
injurious in the Dakotas and Minnesota
and also in parts Of the lake region, south
Atlantic, central gulf states and in Florida.
Rain is badly needed over the greater part
of Texas, in portions of Kansas, generally
throughout the central and southern
Rocky mountain districts, and in Oregon.
Frosts, causing slight damage, occurred
on the 10th, In Montana and Idaho:
dition of corn continues generally through
out the principal corn producing states
and also in the Atlantic coast and eastern
gulf districts. Windstorms blew down
considerable corn in Nebraska, Missouri,
Arkansas and Ohio. In some counties in
the crop is in need OF rain.
The harvesting stacking and threshing
of spring wheat on lowlands in the north
ern part of the spring wheat region, where
grain is fully ripe, were interrupted during
the fore part of the week, the fields being

While cotton has improved in portions
OF the central and western districts the
crop as a whole has suffered deterioration
which is most marked In the eastern dis
tricts. Rust and shedding are extensive
throughout the belt, and dry, hot weather
has proved injurious over much OF Texas
where premature opening is reported, but

diminishing. The crop has improved In

soaked the ground and places the corn

preceded the rain and blew out a heavy

EXETER, Neb., Aug. Z.-(SpeciaI)-Two
good rains is the record for this vicinity

was reported in town, but on the farm of

large barn was totally destroyed by light
ming, together with a large quantity of
hay. 1000 bushels of wheat, other grain and
some farm implements All the horses
were saved by the prompt action of the
family. One horse was knocked down and

dragged out. The barn and contents were

half the loss

as yet been reported.
RUSKIN, Neb., Aug. "a heavy rain
visited this section last night. There are
but few reports in from the country, so II
is not known whether much damage was
done by the wind or lightning. However, a
barn belonging to Chris Jacobsen, south

sumed. Mr.. Jacobsen succeeded in getting
his horses out, but his harness and 5OC

F. NJ Healey made a vigorous protest
against closing F street south of the Great
Northern right-of-way Doing this he
claimed would leave his wire fence be-
tween the Union Pacific and Great North
ern tracks and with no way OF getting out,
the former company shutting him OF on
the north. The Westbrook Gibbons Grain
company is in the same position and also
strongly objected. There was not 80
much opposition to the closing of other
streets, provided the Great Northern would
lay out a stret south of its right-of way
from Broad to Main. The council adjourned
about midnight without having taken any
action. Unless some kind OF compromise
is made with the Westbrook- Gibbons COM
pany and Healey there is likely to be some
litigation over the matter.
