Births

We take our eddytoriu1 pen in hand
to state that there amt been no births
in Bingville now for nearly wks.
Why is this?
We had hoped to be able to chronicle
at least one birth in our midst in this
ishue, but as we go to press the happy
event has not yet eliminated, but Doc
Livermore. our human speshialist and
horse dockter, perdickts that we will be
able to give more dehnnit perticklers
in this respeckt We hope so.
In the meantime is Bingville agoing
to permit the pusilanimous town of

EDDYTORIUL

Well, here we be agin right on
the thresh-hold of the 4th of July
agin, which is only four days dis
tant and can't come emmy too quick
for the inhabitants of Bingville
from the youngest to the oldest
every man, woman, child and dog
is looking forward with joyful an
|ticipashions to the celebrashion of
the Glorious Fourth. Well, we
don't know whether every dog is
looking forward to it either or not
when we come to think of it, being
as on every Fourth in Bingville
some of our dogs lifes is made mis-
able for them, as you might say.
Only last Fourth of July four of
the most prominent dogs in Bing-
vile was put through a turrible
|nervus sprain becuz some fends in
human form tied frecrackers to
their tails and they went yelpin and
yappin down Main St. as fast as
they could hike with the frecrack-
ers snappin and crackin behint
them to urge them on to a faster
clip, when goodness knows they
was goin as fast as they could, but
being as all this was did in the in
terests of patritism & to add joy
business to the glorious occashion
perhaps it was justifde
AS we go to press it looks as if
this coming 4th of July in Bing-
vile was going to be the biggest
4th which ever took place in our
midst, and we hope it will be.
The 4th of July is somethink that
comes but onct a year and lasts
only for a day at time and then is
past & went forever, so let us
therefore make all we kin outen it
while it lasts. Let every patrick
citizen of Bingville rise up bright
and airly on>the morning of the 4th
and from the time he gifts outen bed
until he goes to bed agin let him
holler and yell and shoot off fire
crackers and make the tarnashion-
est racket of which he is capable
of. Unless every Bingville citizen
does this he will be regarded as
poor cittizen-unless he contributes
what he kin to the noise and gen
era1 hubbub & commoshion in Binp-
vile on that day it will be took for
a sign that he don't love his coun-
try as he ort to and that the fire of
patritism don't flame up in his
breast like unsquenchable fire.
Let it not be said of Bingville
that we diddent rise to the occa-
shion and make the 4th of July in
our midst one of the most COM
memorable & immortal events

AWFUL BIC Alb !
In Looks as We GO to Press as if
BingviIIe Was Going to Have a
4th of July That Will Never Be
ForgOt---ParshiaI Program as
per Below!

Next Thursday morning bright G.
early a. m. the celebration of the 4th
of July in Bingville will begin with a
loud noise.
The day will be usherered in by Seth
Dewberry, our lion hearted town con-
stubble, in fitting manner. Seth has
old nnusket which his father carried
during the War of the Rebellyun and
which has a load in which amt been
shot off for 9 years. Next Thursday
morning jest as day breaks Seth is
agoing to shoot off this musket and
thus offishially open the 4th of July in
Bingville. AS town constubble Seth has
posted up a notise in the P. 0. to the
effeckt that until the 4th in Bingville
is offishially opened by him shooting
off this musket it will be unlawful for
emmy person to make emmy exploshion
of emmy kind by means of guns, fire
crackers and pistols, but that after he
has shot off the musket then every
buddy in Bingvilfe kin go ahead and
make all the noise they want, but if
they don't obey this notise they must
suffer the consequences and the law
must take its course, being as he will
have the gilty parties arrested for in
subordinashion to a officer.
At 10 a. m. there will be a perceshion
form at the town hall which will march
up and down Main St. several times
and then disband at the town hall,
where it started This perceshion will
be composed first by Seth Dewberry,
town constubble aforesaid, who will go
ahead of the perceshion carrying a big
flag. After Seth will come the Bing-
vile Horn Band, and after the band
will march the three town selecktmen,
then the members of the board of helth,
and after them emmy other patritick cit
tizens who desires to march, inclooding
men, wimmen and Children, and emmy
others whose names does not appear
here. It is espeshially desired that all
the Bingville Children will march, be-
ing as it is thort it will incul<ate pa
tritism s. love of country in their dear
little hearts.
After the perceshion disbands at the
town hall the doors of the hall will be
throwd open and ther1 who is fatigged
with their long march up and down
Main St. in the dust will be permitted
to go inside the hall and rest theirselfs,
during which the winnen folks will
pervide on tables under trees back of
the hall sumptchous repast for the
inner man, and when dinner is ready
it will be announced, whereupon every
buddy present regardless of sex or
creed will seat theirselfs at the table
and eat fit to bust
At one o'clock P M. the crowd will
assemble in the Town Hall and after a
few seleckshions from the Bingville
Horn Band, Jed Peters, our intelligent
school teacher, will git right up on The
platform and make speech to the as
sembled multitood. Jed amt said what !
he is agoing to say on this occashion, |
but he has been working on this 4th of
July speech for the past months and |
has read few of the most elokwent |
passages to Anne Hillyer, our lawyer, J. |
of the P. 6 legal light, and Anne tells :

Mrs. Deacon Andrews has been bizzy
of late darning the Deacon's wool sox
for him. She says the Deacon is tur-
rible hard on his sox. The Deacon
ushua1ly changes from wool to cotton
sox when the weather gifts warm, but
he says being as the warm weather has
been so backward this season he has
kept on wearing his wool sox and as
he has wore EN- up to now and it amt
so turrible long until fall, he callsilates
he'll jest keep on wearing 'em right
through the summer, even if they are
a leetle mite too warm for the weather.
Ham Wilson amt been feeling very
we'll of late. Yves Woodruff told Ham
he calkilated it was his blood outen
order which made him feel so mean,
and to go and dig some dandelion root
and make some tea outen same and
drink it, and it would be good for
what allied him, so Ham he went and
did so, but after Hams wife made him
the dandelion tea and Ham TUX taste
of it he spluttered and made a Ease s.
said it was the bitterest stuff he ever
tasted and that he'd a blamed sight
ruther have his blood outen order than
to take SIGH truck Not only that, but
Ham won't speak with Yves now for
sujjesting SIGH a thing.

upon within a short time, it should
not be done without the CO. operation
Of the power and navigation inter-
ests of the district.
In the opinion Of the government
engineers, who have prepared the re-
commentator and report, there
would be a conflict between these
two branches Of river commerce, in
that the navigation companies would
prefer a reservoir capacity Of 3d.
600, 100000 cubic feet of water in
dry weather, while the power inter-
ests would favor one Of 27,000,000,-
900 cubic feet. It is further recon-
mended that the entire operation of
the dam and reservoir be reserved to
the government.-Olivia Times.
