Paxton, at Center, Ralls county, Mo., to Mr. Kipp of Bodarc, he says: "Don't think you are out of the world for that is a paradise by the side of this country and I advise you to stay by your homestead and have a home of your own. Poorer land than you have is renting here for 4 per acre and times are harder than I ever saw in Sioux county. No work to do at all and if there was you would get a big 50c, a day for it, I had rather live in Sioux pounty on bread and potatoes than own a good farm here for I have been wading in mud and water about four inches deep for throe weeks," The Bight of H. The sXatment puhHshed ip the last Herald regarding the affair that took place here on Saturday evening March 16th, .shows such an utter absence of truth or honesty in its character that we will give the facts.

JBattenlee fol lowed and came close up to Patterson who then tried -to wrest the -"gun" from him and either fell or was 'knocked down and off the sidewalk. Satterlee still fol lowed but by this time several parties had come out from the idrug store and they persuaded Satterlee to desist. These are the facts as told by the four gentle men above named and there was no on else present wihen Sattertee commenced the disturbance.
