Talking of cold, tho mercury fell

At this date tho Mlssouil river Is

The Flaltsburg Puilfier says Gov
ernor Crittenden Is giving Missouri to
tho Republicans. All right ! give it to
anything but the present party whoso
representatives failed so miserably Inst
session to lepenl some iniquitous legis
lation of former sessions among oth
ers the famous Tax Law.
If thcro is nn Infamous character
on earth It is tho professional spy.
Since it has become known that a no
torious murderer and spy and black
mailer, Frank Lane, alius Grimmett,
alias half a dozen other names, was the
prime mover in tho ense against tho
Talbot boys, people begin to bolleve
they arc innocent victims of a hellish
conspiracy. No spy ought to be be
lieved on onth.
Every year tho cost for ropairs on
tho railway along the Missouri bottom
Is very great and annually it must come
to enough to cancel tho profits of the
precedliifi'ijcar. This year, what with
delays, damages from washouts and
overflows it is almost equal to a relay
ing of the track' tho whole way. Sev
eral years ago we heard one of the best
railroad engineers in our Union say
that "If tho Missouri Hiver and valley
are subject to overflows and erosions
to tho extent represented, it can never
pay to have a road on the bottom, but
it must go through the uplands."
By giving a hundred dollars to
wards a church building at Atchison,
you will have tlio best chance ever of
fered. Mass will u said every day till
1110(5 at the privileged altar, siys the
"eireu'ar of the Benedictines.'' To a
hotter apprecitiou of this very extraor
dinary benefit of h privileged altar, It
is here milled that each lime mas is
offered for the dead at such an altar a
plenary indulgence is imparted to the
souls for whwse benefit the mat is ap
plied. Pope Leo XIII, has bestowed a
pontifical blessing on the enterprise.
All the people from the counties
east of tills going to Forest City r to
Kausa or Nebraska; all tho people of
these States or southern Iowa and north

people of this county who have busiuo.v
at tho county seat and some lx tli.u
sand people who have occasion to go to
tho dopot at Fnre.t City and who live in
this Immediate vicinity u net travel the
road between Oregon aud Forest City.
It is the greatest travelled bit of road
In all the west. It ought to bo kept in
the best order and lurarinbly, at all
times, It is in the very woit, and has
been for years. More money Tight tn
bu used on it than any other, for ,f. is ;
the most used. Some bodv Is to blame. !
Such miserable negligence is inexcusa

tale. He had just brought a load of

now growing almost extinct of whom
their word was better than tho l.ontjs of

expression "I glvo you my word", was
to them tho wholo round world or mor

Sipes was always a quiet, steady

Elder Hobt. Montgomery of this

Over iu Adair county, recently, two
large wolves tried to take two little
girls. This reminds us that we heard
of wolves being seen near tills town
lately. High waters havu stirred them

On last Saturday, the weather be

was not hitching room for the horses of

The Chinesu custom of paying doc

Is a wlso ono. Every family hits its
family doctor who gets so much per

during sickness when the pay stops.

Mr. Jus. B. Curry received a letter
from a rolattve at Sioux City,last week,
which states"thu snow is u thugrouud

may expect very cold weather from

At St. Joseph corn Is from ill to 3G

22 lo 21, oatri 24, rye 60, wheat from l

littlo higher than at St. Joseph, so the
papers report. Why such difference
within such short distances?
We remember reading Mother Ship

the verses,
"(iolil shall l.n fnitinlat root ot Irer,

When society Is shocked by a crime

such things can go unwluppcd of justice.

Unfair.
Tim County Court of Holt under pro.
text of being remarkably fair and of get
ting the most advantageous terms on the
public printing Invite thu Mound City
News to bid, but they of Craig or Corn
ing nro not noticed. This has occurred
twice. The financial statements aud
abstracts were handed quietly over to
the News on its bid. If that Court can
inauagi thin ami iiiaku people holiuvu
it is doing lor the bust Interests of Holt,
they aro more stupid than they havu
tredit for being. Who has seen tint
.statements as published? The paper to
get it ought to have n general circula
tion at least. Corning Herald.
