The REGISTER is unavoidably a few
hours late this week, but the fault is
not ours. The big rain Monday night
put the railroad track in the Black
well neighborhood four or five feet
under water and there was no express
brought to Ironton Tuesday. Our
paper generally comes on the noon
train Tuesday, but this week we did
not get it until Wednesday noon,
which accounts for our delay.
Representative DIR. James H. Mar
til. returned from jefferson City Fri
day evening and has resumed his
practice at Pilot Knob. We have OBJ
served the Dr.'s course in the legis-
lature and we are of the opinion that
he proved a faithful and competent
servant of his constituents. Every
vote he cast, SO far as we have able to
ascertain, was in accord with the
wishes of the people he was repre-
senting.
