The question of building a new
court house in this, Monroe County.
hobs up about once ever so often.
There has been and still is per-
sistent and strong opposition to
building a new one and the opposi-
ton comes from the heavy tax
payers.
While talking to Us Friday, John
R. Buchanan said: IF Paris wants
a court house, she can build one al
most easy as she burned one, so let
her build it."
About the safest way not to
have one, to judge by the Infmary
or Poor House. is to vote an oppo-
sition for one. Let the County
Court first learn what it wants.
Judge j. T. Umstattd appears to be
the only one that knows or cares
just what should be.

This Statute Is Ignored.

This is the time of the year, when
arises the question. If a peach tree
grows so near the fence that the
fruit hangs over the neighbours
yard, whose peaches are they? We
have consulted all the law diction-
aries and finally found that Scion,
the great Athenian law-maker,
tried to answer this question before
he began the making of laws and
therefore, to avoid controversy pro-
vided that whoever planted a tree
should plant it five feet from his
neighbours ground, if it was a fruit
tree it should be nine feet from the
property line This law was made
600 years before Christ.-Hannibal

Strange Divorce Suits.

Winfield (Kas.) Tribune: The
strangest complaint in the divorce
courts noted for some time is that
of a woman who wants to leave
her husband because he won't dye
his red hair to match the new fur
niture. The alimony should be
large and gratefully paid by the
husband of such a wife. Some men
have no artistic tendencies.

Queer Conditions.

The negroes of Alton, ILL.,, have
fought their legal battle for admit
ance into the white schools and
won the battle. What the next
step will be none can say.
A separate school is provided for
the negro in this city and it is los
ing out because the children are
falling short in numbers and a good
portion will not attend without
being whipped into it. Their par
ents should see that they do attend
or there will be a time when legally
there will be no school for the negro
race. You can lead a horse to
water but if the negroes will not
attend school then of course they
cannot be educated and cannot be-
come desirable citizens,
The leaders of the black race in
this city should take hold of the
matter and see that the children
do attend school before it is too
late.

The Voice of a Prophet.

Like the voice of a prophet of old
calling the chosen back from the
paths of error to the ways of right
eousness come the words of Richard
Olney, warning Democrats of their
past mistakes and calling upon
hem to rally to the old standard of
Democracy appraised in the hands
of William ]. Bryan.
A few weeks ago it was David
Bennett Hill who returned from
abroad to call the Democracy of the
East to battle under the banner
borne by leader from the West.
Now it is Richard Olney, the secre-
tary of state under Cleveland and
his confidential adviser. One by
one the Democrats of the old school,
tired of the abuses of Rooseveltism,
sick OF the executive aggrandize-
ments, the encroachments upon
states rights, the violations of the
constitution, the attacks upon the
judiciary and the bullying of Con-
gress, have put on the harness
which they some years ago put
aside, believing that the country no
longer needed their. services, and
have leaped to the front of the adj
Vancing ranks of the triumphant
Democracy, determined to do val
liant deeds and to share in the VIC
tory that is all but won.
And among all those who have
exemplified and made plain the is
sues of this campaign, none has
made them palmer than Richard
Olney. - Journal.

Selecting the Ram.

For the beginner in the sheep
business and one who is keeping
only a few on the farm to keep
things clean, there may be some
question in his mind as to the best
kind of ram to use on his ewes. If
he has been in the cattle or hog
business he will have little diff
Guilty in selecting his ram, because
the general type of meat producing
animals, whether cattle, sheep or
hogs is the same. The form should
be low down, blocky, thick feshed
and early maturing. In order to
get as high a per cent of high
priced meat as possible, the hook
and loin must be broad and thick,
and the thighs full and Deep legs
short, neck short and thick, head
short and broad, and as much fine
ness of bone as is consistent with
strength and constitution. Not only
must the ram possess the above
mentioned requirements, but he
should have deep, broad chest de-
noting constitution and vigOr. He
shnuld have the character about
him that indicates that he will
transmit his good points to his
lambs. The indications of prepot-
ency are a masculine head, strong
thick neck, and general development
of the fore quarters and sexual
organs. If you keep mutton sheep,
use a block thick-f1eshed ram.

The wisdom of the Democratic
party in nominating W. S. Cowherd
for Governor becomes more mani
fest every day. He is making a
whirlwind tour of the State, preach
ing true Democracy, and dealing
sledge-hammer blows to Republican
policies and Republican records.
He draws great crowds at every
speech and arouses great enthusi-
asm in every community he visits,
Hadley, the youthful oratorical
progidy, to whom the Republican
party has pinned its faith, is prov
ing a mere plaything in his hands,
and his complete determination
will date from their first joint meet
ing if it is ever held. Cowherd is
tanxious for such a meeting, but
Hadley is steering clear of it. He
much prefers to confine his efforts
to telling the newspapers what a
great man he is. Palmyra Specta-

THREE TAKE UP WAGER.
Council Bluffs Youths to Walk to Den
yer in Sixteen DAVIS.

Special to Times Republican.
Council Bluffs, March 27.-Three
husky, athletic young men of Council
Bluffs will attempt to walk to Denver
from this city in sixteen days, on a
wager of $3.50. The purse has been put
up by William NJ. WEIGH, prominent
business man with liking for ath-
letics. John Pruitt, r. NJ. Tallman and
Bert Deeds are the fellows who will
try to earn the money.
The men will make start from the
front of the Nonpareil office at z
o'clock on the morning of April 15.
They are to be supplied only with
enough money to pay their toll over
the Missouri river bridge between
here and Omaha, and must meet their
expenses enroute from their own eff
forts and ingenuity.
Another handicap, which Mr.. Welch
believes will make the walkers hustle
are two wheelbarrows, which they are
required by the rules of the contest to
trundle thru to Denver. These car
riages" are to weigh, with contents.
fifty pounds each. They may take
turns with the barrows.
The distance to Denver from here is
542 miles, hence, in order to cover the
distance in the time limit, they must
cover a trine less than thirty-four
miles a day.
