The only corn discolor ed or injured was the outside row, where there was a heavy growth of prairie grass, that took the fire longer to burn than did the corn.

He says he don't know what she was mad at, and he has read the item over a hundredjkimes to see if there was anything in the item that is the least bit disrespectful. Douglas (Wyo.) Budget.

Prsident Cleveland has forced the fight between free trade and protec tion, in spite of the frantic protests of the democratic organs that he has not favored free trade. In the three doubtful states New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, Cleveland is looked upon as the champion of practical free trade, and no amount of denials of repre sentations to the'"contrary will change the attitude of the voters to him. In the uext campaign he will receive the enthusiastic and unani mous support of the free traders, while he will be solidly opposed by every man who refuses to acknowl edge the "blessings" of free trade. The statements of his organs that he is the friend of the workingmari, that he does not destroy protection, will not effect the result with the voters or cause them to modify their views. Cleveland will either have to back down froni his present position or lose the states of New York, Con necticut and New Jersejr. Without the electoral votes of these states he cannot be elected. The chances are in favor of his backing down. Journal. $25. OO Reward. The above reward will bo paid for any case of rheumatism not benefited by Ballard's Snow Liniment.
