It would be well to bear in mind, also, the significant fact that but for the sagacious und economical way in which the republican party managed the affairs of the government! for so many years, we should not have any surplus, but, on the contrary, should bo paying out over $100,000,000 more in interest on the public debt than we have to pay under the present conditions. i. s)i30ia Honoo- Fnrvstmlle of Paten Chess and Checkerboard, ad- rertisinu the celebrated Svnvita Block Remedies nd a KF.WAItl) OF Sl.."iOO.

Lynn buys corn and has 20,000 bu. now bought. We expect the cars to run into our town by the 1st, of June. Small grain looks very well as we are having plenty of rain now. If this don't find the waste basket, I will try my hand at writing again. Farmers are nearly all through plant ing corn, and it is coming up good since our fine rain. Lynn needs a post offie, which we expect to get, in time. e have to get our man at Factory ville. G. N. Larue will build a large black smith shop; and Bowers will build a shoe shop and store. G. A.

The farmers are generally getting fair stand of corn the first planting. Miss Erne Worley has charge of athrfee month's school out in tlie Center Valley- precinct. The fruit bloon has blasted to a great extent and is falling off, caused probably by the late f reszes. Miss Belle Fitch who has a school down on the Weeping Water was up to Kock Bluffs Sunday visiting her folks. Byron E.

Three Groves, May 22, '7. ML'ltlUY. The farmers are ubout done planting corn in this locality. Cut worms are doing considerable dam age in thi- part of the county to corn aud garden vegetables. Small grain is not doing very well for some cause. Oats especially seems to be short. A fishing party went up to the mouth of Four Mile creek, on the Platte, last Saturday. Those from this place were J. W. Berger, Andrew Johnson and Von Bogardus. We also had the pleasure of seeing Win. Murray and Silas Long and family there. Mr. Long caught a very nice cat-fish, about lb or 20 inches long. Vou Bogardus caught one that weighed six and a half pounds dressed and two smaller ones. J hn Ber ger caught n craw-fish two and a half inches long, but Andrew Johnson came out with li.iliernian's luck. Sitting on the end of :i log watching a young lady rid ing across a bridge lie got excited and fell off into the river. When he got out after looking all around and not seeing anything of the young lady who cause ! him so much trouble, he said "By gosh it is a hard thing to be baptised be for. i man has received the faith; still, h'' su:d I believe." 1 asked him what he did lieve. He said "that she was the pr. ;t:i -t girl in the county."

Carnes has purchased the interest of Dick Bowman, his former partner, in the livery business and has added seven new rigs to his livery the past week. There was a large drove of Oregon horses here the past week and the farmers availed themselves of the opportunity of getting a good pony for a little money. The board of trustees of the village of Greenwood have purchased the Green wood ccuietary of E. A. Ryder for $500 and will at once proceed to fence and or nament the same. Dick Bowman, formerly of this place but now of Custer County, has been in town the past two weeks looking after unsettled business affairs. He will re turn home Tuesday. The middle nged business man who has combination post box No. 37, who advertised in the Ilatrkeye of last week for some lady who is his equal to engage as his partner in life, is a man of sterling qualities, that is to say a man of function and we presuma wants the party answer ing his communication to possess the same qualities.

Tho Sun Building Carlonded and Festooned in Honor of its Natal Day. 1 K('piiitel tor tlio ll.iltlnioie S in The Sun Iron Building is decorated in honor of the tilth th anniversary of the founding of Tlie Sun. Tin: building had been previously painted in three tints of yellow drab, an entirely new shade, in imitation of w bite terra cot ta. Tho high est relievos were given the lightest color except on the lower stories, where a!l llie relief castings of the awning frame and corner lamp were-cut with gold. The new incandescent lamp at tin; corner. with five large burners, the who.; giving a light equal to 500 :ai.dle power, was lit at night and shed a clear radiance over the beautiful decorations, while the green festoons and variegated natural llowcrs harmonized perfectly with the scini-iieu- trtil tint of the building. The decorations themselves, placed un der the directions of Enitnai I fc (Jtiai tley, who also did the painting, are extremely artistic. The most prominent position, at the corner of Baltimore and South streets, is given to a rounded design symbolic of The f-uu and its present anniversary. This is hung at tho third lloor, and represents a golden sun burst surrounding a shield of bluo ground, upon which in gold letters is tho date "May 17." From the two sides of this shield are llouting ribbons of hilver, with the inscriptions "1h:57" and "17" in scarlot letters, marking red-letter day a in the history of this journal. Long fea toons of cedar and laurel evergreen aru draped gracefully from the center of each third-story windowjto the awning bar belov,-forniing a canopy over the en tire pavemetit on the two streets. From the origin of each festoon at the third floor, bunting United States flags are giv en to the breeze, each of the twenty-ono depending from a staff of crimson tipped with gold, and "ornamented at the ball with a white silk ribbon, while below each staff hangs a wreath of evergreen. In each of the windows of tlie second floor is a large pot with a growing paliu, palmetto or japonica plant, twenty-ono being used in all. Beneath these and depeuding over the windows und door ways of the first lloor are baskets of blooming petunias, nutmeg and ivy ger aniums, verbenas, lobelias and trailing vines. Between each of the four awning posia are garlands of evergreen, festooned with wreaths of the same, within each of which is a mat composed of lilies, Moie chal Neil and pearl roses. In each loop of tlie garlands at the curb, are three bas kets of flowering shrubs, vines and moss es, the center one being hung lower than those on either side. Thee baskets aro sixty in number, and at the corner they are massed, the rod leading from the cor ner post to the first floor cornice being decorated with four of them. At the corners of the fourth floor evergreen is again looped over the third floor win dows, and the highest cornice at the cor ner of Bdtimore and South streets, largo flags of the nation are draped in easy folds. The whole building presents the most chaste and graceful appearance, and is a worthy emblem of the day commemorut- etl. Samuel J. kasdall has just told a re porter that the low duty on pig iron is leting in so much of the foreign product that the domestic industry suffers. This indicates that Mr. P.andall is not going to be less hostile to the schemes of the free traders in the next Congress than he was in the proceeding Congress. And that makes the prospect of harmony for the Democracy on thi3 question additionally omnious is the fact, as mentioned by Mr, Randall himself, that the protection strength in the Democratic party in the coming Confess will be fully as great as it was in the last one.
