NEWPORT HAS A FIRE.

Newport, March 20.-F 1T e broke out about o'clock this morning in w. F. Bishops restau- rant, on Walnut street, and before it was checked burned four busi- bess houses, all frame buildings, owned by the T. J. Watson estate and valued at $3,000; insurance, 5000. The buildings were occu- pied by Bishops restaurant, Phil lips & Ferguson's insurance office, Joe Vagner's barber shop and Bell & Maynard's restaurant. Most of the stocks were saved. The origin of the fire is thought to have been incendiary.

sary repairs but can not make permanent improvements without an order of the county court.
 So, taking all this into consider ation, 1 did not consider that the petitioners had two-thirds and told their attorney that with what information 1 had 1 would not in- troduce a bill. He was angry with me and stated that 1 was re- fusing this for political reasons, which is absolutely false. Had 1 wanted to play the smooth politi- clan 1 would have introduced the bill and pretended that l was try ing to put 1t through, and then let 1t die on the calender, and gone to the opposing parties and told them of this, which would have been ab- solutely satisfactory to them. l could have done this, and carried water on both shoulders, which would have been politics, pure and unadulterated. l think that those who know me best know that l will not lay down principle for po- litical advancement.
 It would be impossible for me to get this bill through in time for the fence to be built in time to make a crop this year, therefore 1 do not consider that 1 am doing anyone an injustice to stop this matter where 1t k, so far as l am concerned, and let the petitioners go before the county court, which is the proper place for them. l have prepared bill to make Black river a lawful fence and think that 1 can assure the petitioners that 1 can get 1t through. If there is any amendment to the general law that the petitioners want l will gladly remedy this for them. However, 1 do not consider that 1t is defective. as 1t answers the pur- pose of the rest of the state. l told the attorney that if Mir. Cole man or Mir. Hinkle would intro duce this bill I would not offer any resistance, but l am of the opinion that neither of them will do this. Some may censure me for this, but 1 do not propose to take case that is hotly contested away from the county court, where 1t rightly belongs, and pass special act through the legislature, especially when l do not believe that the county court will grant their re- quest. Hoping this is right, just, and satisfactory to all parties con- cerned. l beg to state that this is final with me, and ask to remain, Your humble representative,

MIR. RANEY'S EXPLANATION
He Refused to Introduce Fencing District Bill, and Tells Why
 lie Did So.
Editor The Journal:

About thirty days ago 1 receiv-
 ed petition asking me to secure the passage of a special act organ izing fencing district east of Newark. also received remon- strance asking me not to secure the passage of this act. The re-
 monstrance was signed mostly by people who do not own land in the district, but by several who do own land in the district. 1 consid- CT that the names of the ones who do not own land in the proposed district should not be considered. Now, the proposed district joins
 the old district and 1 am of the
 opinion that the parties owning land in the old district are interest ed, however, by the persistent ar gument of the petitioners l decid- ed that l might be wrong and agreed not to consider them in 1t.
 After making this concession to the petitioners, 1 told their attor- ney that l would have to be posi-
 lively convinced that two-thirds of the land owners in the proposed district had signed the petition, before l would attempt to pass a bill. Sec. 1878 of Kirby's digest provides that the county court up- on petition of two-thirds of the land owners in any township or
 fraction thereof, shall authorize the establishment of fencing dis trict. It is true that all the fenc- ing districts of Independence coun- ty have been formed by special acts of lha legislature, but this is not necessary, as many fencing districts have been formed all over the state by the county courts.
 We have had three bills for this purpose for Independence county in this session, while l do not be- lieve there has been a single dis trict organized by this legislature out side of Independence county, so the general law certainly meets the requirements of the rest of the state. The only reason why this should be brought before the Iegis lature is to make Black river a lawful fence; however, as to that they could have run their fence down Black river and avoided coming to the legislature with it.
 I do not object to this district be- ing organized, provided they can make the proper showing before the county court, and for thls reas- on agreed to save the expense of building the fence down Black river, and proposed to have a special act passed making Black river lawful fence. This was not satisfactory to the attorney for the petitioners. So to satisfy him l agreed to try to pass the bill provided that be could show me positively that two thirds of the land owners wanted 1t. Sc, the attorney for the petitioners came down with a petition signed by fifty while forty eight was all that was necessary. had let ter from two parties who asked me to erase their names from the petition. Three of the parties on the petition had signed both the petition and the remonstrance; in fact, I believe they had signed al- most everything that was presented to them, and l do not know how to consider these parties. Four or five had signed the petition as guardian. The law plainly states that guardian may make neces-

His Goal the Letter "v"

When the late Horace Maynard, L. L.
D., entered Amherst college, he expos
ed himself to ridicule and jibing ques-
tions of his fellow students by placing
over the door Of his room a large
square of white cardboard on which
was inscribed I'm bold outlines the sin
gle letter V. Disregarding comment
and question, the young man applied
himself to his work, ever keeping In
mind the height to which he wished to
climb, the first step toward which was
signified by the mysterious v. ...
Four years later, after receiving the
compliments Of professors and stu
dents on the way he had acquitted
himself as valedictorian Of his class,
young Maynard called the attention OF
his fellow graduates to the letter over
his door. Then a light broke in upon
them, and they cried out:

she continued delightedly. "T want to

The last rumbling notes Of the or

turned reluctantly toward the door.

for a purpose. Each individual has
a work to do. 1t was not only so with
Moses: but the humblest and weakest
Israelite had a mission to accomplish.
We may run away from our work, but
we can't run away from the response
bility to do this work. 1t Is your work
and God has laid upon you the re-
sponsibility to do this work. You
may shirk your work; but you can't
shirk your duty.
2. God never calls a man to work
which he cannot perform. Moses
thought he could not do the work to
which he had been called but he did
do this work, and he did 1t magn1fi-
Gently. God Is honest with US. He
knows the man and He knows the
work. In fact, He prepares the one
for the other, the work for the man
and the man for the work. There
may be difficulties in the way; but
God will keep US by His grace and
wisdom and strength. II He calls a
man to preach, that man can preach.
II He calls you to an office In the
church, or to the position Of Sab
bath school teacher, or to any work
In the church; you can do the work
that Is involved. The only condition
to success Is this: We must use the
means which God has provided.
2. We ought to leave results with
God. Our BUSINESS is to obey, to do
the will Of God, to do the work
which He has given US to do. If, af-
ter having done this, we worry about
results. we are simply wasting our
strength and resources. and are put
ting our judgment above Gods judg-
ment. II we do what God tells us to
do, we have made a grand success.
II matters not what the visible re-
suits which may follow our efforts
may be- Success in Gods sight Is
frequently a very different thing from
what 1t is in the sight of men. II
we are walking in the path Of duty.
God will take care Of results, and He
will take care of US. In the path Of
duty. we have a right to claim His pro-
lection and His approval.
Let us not worry, therefore over re-
