There were high times at the wharf
last night. A refractory young bull
made things lively for a half dozen
men and the night wharfmaster This
bull was brought down on the Ev-
ansyille packet two weeks ago and
escaped here. He was found yester-
day after hard search and last
night they undertook to lead him on
the wharfboat. He protested with
all his vigorous young strength. and
as he had no horns to hold him with,
II was life and death struggle. The
bull resumed his journey to Missousi
on the Dick Fowler today.
The Tennessee river is not the only
river spouting pumpkins. The clerk
on the Buttorff said that the Harpeth
river near Nashville was jammed
with pumpkins when the Buttorn
passed yesterday and that 1t was es-
tlmated that there were hundred
car loads there. The rising rivers
have covered the corn fields, where
the pumpkins grow, and washed
away hundreds of acres OF them.
Considerable damage is expected

REPoRTER.
Mr. EDITOR

Mr. EDIroR:
Not seeing any news items from
near here OF late, take up my pen
to jot few lines.
AS TO moving the court house,
suppose that matter is settled for
awhile and think the people of the
county should be satisfied to let it
stay upon the Hill for little time
yet, at least; and to the citizens of
Ceredo District we advise you all as
good citizens TO be contented and
satisfied and let the verdict of the
people rule. Don't think of annex
ing your district to Cabell county,
for that would be worse still. When
you have business at the Hill come
up with bright and smiling faces
and | think you will be treated
right. What we want is economy
in running the affairs of the county,
state and government so as TO lessen
the burden of taxation.
l will now write few lines about
the railroad rate bill that is engag-
ing the country at present. | don't
think it can be adjusted satisfactor-
Ily by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The Legislature of
the State to be affected by the rate
should appoint a committee to meet
joint committee appointed by
their delegates in Congress and
when they agree on the rate, let il
be fixed rate. When agreement
is reached, let 1T become law.
don't like the plan of the Pana.
ma Canal very much. 1t should be
sea level canal-nOt lock canal
then the work would be permanent
and lasting.
As to giving pensions to the
State militia, / don't think that can
be done only by the State. The
government cannot legally pay any
soldiers except the ones recruited
under her acting officers, though by
special acts the State militia NAV
draw pensions where they have been
called or pressed into the service
by such acting officers of the United
| States.
About our foreign relations gov.
erning commerce, think il best To
not force the trade of their coun.
tries, especially where they arc
barred Of free privilege, as China is
A country to have a good trade
must honor the country aud get or
good terms with its people; ther
their trade is apt to be more lively
and give better satisfaction.
Yes, let the court house matter
rest, and let's all try to be satisfied
IDo.

publish all the news. We should
say not. Iu the first place, there's
somebody depend ng on us for a
living. Ii we publised all that hap.

pie, we mist print ouly the nice
things said of them and leave the
rest TO gossip. Yes, it's fact, we
don't print all the news. If we did
wouldn't it be spicy reading? Blu, it
would be for one week only. The
next week you would read our
obituary, and there would be new
