The case of Jas. H. Brookmire & Co.
vs," Rosa & Thompson has been taken to
the Hiipretuo court on error, and after a
year or two that court will reach the
case and decide it. If the decision of th.
district court is sustained that will end
it, if that decision is reversed tb case
will ue heard again by the district court.
The fact that the supreme court is more
than a year behind with its work makes
it very bad lor those interested in cases
before it and the amendment to the
constitution to increase the number of
judges certainly should be adopted so
that such long delays may lie avoided.
A letter was received yesterday from
Gov. Furnas, secretary of the state board
of agriculture, who has been appraised
of the intentions of those interested in
the Sioux county exhibit at tlie state
fair, in which he stated that Sioux coun
ty sltould have as good a site- as
there was on the ground. He further
stilted Hint tiie exhibit contemplated
was an pxtraonhnnry one and should have
extraordinary attention by the manage
ment of the state fair. Now let all see
that every detail is curried out to the
letter and if possible let the exhibit he
made of such a nature tliat it will exceed
the hopes of the mest sanguine,
The Shuycaltle poisoning case is

Justice Mcintosh, of White river pre
cinct 'County Attorney Walker prose
cuted und Attorney Elswick, of Craw
ford, appeared for tho defendant. The
justice held lier to np)car at tlio district
court. On Tuesday she was brought up
to the county sent by lXjptity Sheriff
Decker. An application was made for a
writ of habeas corpus, and the case was
set for hearing on Wednesday but owing
to tlie non-nrrival of some material wit
nesses, the case had to 1 continued un
til tkiy and is in progress as we go to
press. If tlie writ is granted it will give
the woman tier Utterly until court com
mences witoirt bail, and the trouble and
expense of keeping her will be saved. If
the writ is denied, die will either have to
give bond or remain in cuatody until
court convenes. John. Stuvy baa out

O. J. Gowey has the contract to car
ry the mail to Royviile from Dawn.
Since the establishment of the ollir-e the
mail has lieen carried from Harrison by
the patrons of the otlb-e but the govern
ment lias now established a route and
let the contract. There is a irtition to
have tlie route extended from Royviile
to Harrison and it is hoped the petition
will soon be granted as it would prove a
great convenience to the people in the
south (Mil t of the county, for it would
give tliem uireci man communication
with the county seat.
- Pursuant to the call published in
Tub Journal a number of fanners and
others interested in the matter of an
exhibit at the state fair met at the court
iouse lust Saturday afternoon. The
meeting was called to order by Slierill
Reidy and J. M. Robinson was elected
chairman and G. Guthrie secretary.
The report of the secretary appears in
another column. The committees were
selected with a view of having those in
charge of the various departments who
would look after their part of it in good
shape. It is to tie boroe in mind that all
the work is not expected to lie done by
the committees, but the earnest, hearty
co oierat ion of all interested in the fu
ture prosperity of Sioux county is ex
ectcd to be extended to them in tlie
work. Do not wait for a special reipiest
to assist, but go to work ot once. If
you have anything good notify the com
mittee and see that it is delivered here
on or before Saturday, August 30th. If
you have nothing suitable to bring and
know of a neighbor who has, go to hi in
and urge him to bring it and assist him
to prejiare it. The cominittoe to attend
to the log house need a good deal of help.
Go to Monroe canyon on the days named
and help them witn tlie work. If there
is nothing else you can do notify tlie
committee on finance that you will con
tribute something toward paying the
necessary expenses. It is but a few
days now until the articles to be exhi
bited will have to be ready for shipment
and there is no time to lose. It would
be a good plan for as many of our farm
ers as can to come to Harrison on Satur
m-day, Aug. 30th and tee what has been
collected. The, reports are coming in
from many that they will be on hand
with something. Let all join tlie move
ment and see what grand results can be
obtained. Don't be afraid that what yoa
have is not iTood enough. Bring it ilk
and bring plenty of it. "Quantity in
