HAMMOCKS.
With the work of the state conven-
tions Of the present week completed,
Michigan's state campaign will be
opened, although no active work In
that direction will be started until
late ia September. There would seem
to BIZ very little need for any sort of a
state campaign In Michigan this year.
Governor Warner Is just completing
his first term In Office and that first
term has been as satisfactory to all the
people Of Michigan In every respect as
that Of any governor since Michigan
became state. Every interest OF the
state has been guarded and every
effort In behalf of state interests has
been successful. Not word of fault
has been found with any state officer
or any member of the present admin
istration. Such record we'll deserves
the endorsement it Is sure to receive.

The County Home.

Jefferson county has one of the best
county homes in the state so far as our
knowledge extends. The farm, the
home proper, the inmates, and all con
nected with the institution are we'll
managed and we'll cared for. Mr..
Shields, the superintendent, is doing
his work we'll in all directions. The in
digent poor of the county are better
cared for now than they were under the
old system, and at much less expense.
Indeed it is surprising how cheaply the
INDECENT poor Of the county are maintain
ed. The amount of produce raised on the
farm this year is surprising. Here is a
statement of some Of the crops: Nearly
a thousand bushels Of potatoes, a thous-
and bushels of oats, $50 bushels of buck
wheat, 1000 bushels Of corn, from 80 to
80 tons of hay, besides a large amount
of cabbage, turnips, beets beans, and
other products of that character. And
it was all done at a comparatively small
cost, aud at a very reasonable expense.
In addition to all the stuff raised on the
farm, it produced all the meat used In
the home, beef and pork.
So far the county home has been a
blessing to our INDECENT poor, and has
been we'll and carefully managed

The Man from Borneo.'

When the Rev. ]. M. Hunter spoke
before the recent great M. E. missionary
convention in Pittsburg, giving an &C
count of his missionary experiences in
the island of Borneo, he spoke so enter
tainingly and with such vivid realism
that the press jokingly referred to him
as the wild man from Borneo." The
people Of Reynoldsville will have an
opportunity to hear him Sundey even
ing, November 4th, when he will speak
in the Methodist Episcopal church.
For many years Rev Hunter and his
wife were almost alone among the semi
savage inhabitants of Borneo and his
account of life in that island is worth
going to hear.
