An Error Corrected.

The Ladies' Aid wishes to cor
rect the statement made by some
one that an entertainment and
Christmas tree would be given
by them on Xmas eve, admission
15c and 25c. The matter was
never discussed or voted on by
the Ladies' Aid, else there would
have been no admission charged
to a Christmas tree, which ought
to be open to the enjoyment Of
all, without money and without
price. The affair is given by the
one who put the advertisement
in the paper and not by the
Ladies' Aid.
On account of the continued
absence of the president of the
Ladies Aid and the resignation
of one or two other officers, an
election of new officers will be
held on the first Thursday in
January.

H. G. Cottle,
Editor Courier.
1t was with great pleasure
that | read the three last issues
of your paper. What interested
me most was the strong demand
that is being made on our friend
and your townsman, ]. P. Haney,
to enter the race for the demo-
cratic nomination in the Ninth.
We do not know whether he has
any aspirations in this direction
or not, but we do know that if
he should decide to SHE his cas-
tor in the ring he would be a
strong man, and the man that
beats him for the nomination
would remember having been in
a race. He possesses every quail
ification to make a good Con-
gresham. He is a fine scholar,
a profound thinker, a ready de-
batter and an orator with few
equals. He is both honest and
courageous. If nominated and
elected he would make a repre-
sentative that the district would
be proud of. He would go to the
front as a champion of the peo-
pies rights. We sincerely hope
that he will listen to his many
friends, of which the writer is
one, andenter the race at once.
This is the opportunity of his
life, and it has been said that
opportunity was a horse, saddled
and bridled, that halted at the
door of every man once in life,
which, if mounted, carries you
on to victory and success; but
pause but moment and he is off
and gone, the echoing hoofbeats
of his iron-shod feet down the
corroders of time will be lifelong
reminder of what you have lost.
Wishing the Courier success, l
am, as ever, .PIGHEAD.

should a location be made in an
area where gas is found on or
near the crest of these anti

could be made by extending the

the location, thus reducing the

Clover or alfalfa, cured in the

stituted. The clover or alfalfa
is finely cut before curing. For
cutting, | use a pair of sheep

used. The lawn clippings are

of them will be relished by the
hens. l use mangels in large
