Wise Mr. Verity warns people not to believe what Tux Jochkal says this -veek. He know that he would till hi columns .with the records and acts of those whom he oppose if he had the same cbauc tliat we have. Tbe "little fool" who runs Thk Jocrnal will not warn people as to what Mr. Verity will say in his last issue before election, for tbey know the methods of him and hia ring. ' -Ringmaster Verity in the lust issue ol bis paper warns the people not to believe the statements which appear in tbix issue of Tub JrjRAb as they are Iks. He is a very wise man. So wise thai should lie send a copy of bis pop paper to tbe lost known postoftice address ol Solomon, that worthy would, no doubt, turn over in his grave nod groan with grief to think that lb Ringmuster ol tb perpetual odlce-seeker's advocate should so far excel him m wisdom. The ral fact is that Mr. Verity is aware ol the records that are in existence and ol the disreputable tactics that have been resorted to by bis outfit wilhih the past few weeks and he knows that some ol their tricks have come to light and he also knows that some people have rec ords which wilt not bear very close in vestigation and be thinks to avoid the results by telling bis readers not to be lieve what Thb JociutAL says. This is tbe fifth campaign in Sioux county thai this paper has gone through under tbe same management and the people know about how much to depend on what it says, regard lees of tbe instructions ot Ringmaster Verity. WkatPcaaat tra OosdFor. Tbe magnitude and universality of tbe homa-coosumption of peanuts are some thing startling. Thar are few towns too small to support at least one vea- der, while in tbe cities the picturesque stalls and roasters are a feature of tbe business streets. Tb peanut baa a great commercaal importance aside from it roasted state. Th seeds contain from forty-two to Jlfty per cant of oil, which is easily ob tained by cold or warm expression. Th Brst method yields a superior oil, which none but an exyert can detect from tb tro olive-oil, and it may be used for the same purpose, both on tbe tabto and in pharmacy. In tb latter method tb baas are but slightly heat ed before being submitted to pressure, and th yield is much greater; but tb color is much darker and th odor mors pronounced and Mas agrees bis.

Bad' Lands, Oct 28, 1893. Eutob Journal.; I Ak for a Rmtted space in your columns that it may be tbe means of showing to the people to wbat straights the court house rin is driven in their extremity. It did not re quire any supernatural vision at the independent convention on the 14th of October to see that the delegations from several precincts had been fixed for the ring. It showed plainly that Lindeman held the Montroae delegation in the hol low of his hand and it was but natural to suppose that after the many promises to Cottonwood and her delegation being solid for him, that he would make some attempt to turn the votes he controlled to Cottonwood's interest and thus unite tbe two strongest precincts in the coun ty. His egotism got tbe better of his judgment and he came to the conclusion that his popularity would carry him through and tbe balance of the riog with him, xd be concluded that be could sacrifice Cottonwood and her interests and still carry tbe county. Time will tell whether this political trickster was right in bis superior wisdom of not and recent development indicate that they are iu a sad plight They have got down on tbeif "marrow bones", earnest ly beseeching in piteous tones for help from Cottonwood or they perish. Peace to their to their ashes. After they got down and wallowed in the mire of humi liation it seemed to arouse their waning courage and tliey turned loose the party whip and threatened a certain party with dire vengeance next fall. Their threats have about as much effect an pouring water oa a duck's back. "He must hasten to fix things up on Cotton wood" or their dire results will follow. I beg to inform the trickster who makes such threats that we know bin). We supported him once for office with all the vim and energy in our power. The next fall he had it in his power to return tbe compliment and he sold us t ut, root and brunch, and we don't fear his threats and the party lash has no terrors, and further that the lambs of Cotton wood wilt not be led to the sliiughtef' on tliu 7th of November in behalf of the court house rityr, and furthermore there is no power on earth that can change the vole here. The only hope tliey can have is to seek divine aid and I fear that if they try that the good Lord will say "depart ye accursed into everlasting puitLthmuflt prepared for the devil and his angels." , piext lau is a long way on unu we will trust to the futuie to take care ot itself without any threats or promises. "Now is the accepted time, now is. the day of salvation. Ihe members of the ring may deny the above chargos. Slum I J they do so and demand proof, I will meet tliein at OVoonell & Jordan s store at AUdia nim hurl tbe lie in their teeth and produce the proof on any oay tliey may name. AH IBDEP&ffDBNT. A Plain Statement. Glen, Oct. 28, 193. Editor Journal-. Will you kindly al low me space in your columns for a few words in regard to the coming election. I notice in the Indtpeitdtfit that Mr. Verity continually refers to the old outfit running the county in debt some $8,000 as an argument in favor of the present incumbents. Now it ill becomes Mr. Verity to use such matters as campaign talk for be was a member of that same outfit at tbe time those debts were con tracted, and if it had not been for tho then county commissioners Mr. Verity might have been ousted from bis office in dis grace, which fact is, I believe, of record and he cannot deny. I say again it ill becomes bim to kick those who at one time favored bim. Now I do not intend to defend those (myself being on of them) who con traded those debts because they need no defease, as any intelligent man (Mr. Ver ity not excepted) knows tbe reason of those debts at that time, and I will say right here without fear of contradiction, that if the present county officers bad beea ia office at that time they would have been in tlie same fix, unlass tliey had gone down In their pockets and paid for about $6,000 worth of records, sup plies, etc., the first year when there was no tax levied and not a dollar in the county treasury. Mr. Verity knows that fact as wall aa I do but it won't do for him to say so now for fear of losing his bread and butter but I should not think it would taste very good when obtained by such disreputable mesas. do not intend to enter into a discussion of that county debt business for I car not a whit who believes the old officers guilty of dishonestly administering the county affairs, for there are those who could not ba convinced by sledge.iara mar argument that it eras only a cam paign lis four years ago In order to get tb present incumbents in office. I have no Seed to sling mud at any .body, but will amy that a ohang in county offteers now and the Is very beneficial to th couaty and Is saying so I only cbo tbttr cry af for years ago. . Yoars Truly, ; Uahikl Kubi. Godeys magizin for' NdrtfrotW, is in tlie opinion of the publishers,- the most attractive of any in the' new series of this old-time favorite. It is rich in Con tents, afli illustrations. The complete novel is from the gifted pen of Mrs. Amelia E. Barr, and is called' The Flow ers ofdafa Water. It is profusely illus trated by Theodore ' Hempe,- and the story itself is in Mrs. Burr's most inter esting vein. This" number also contains illustrated articles on A Holiday in Spain, by Floyd B. Wilson, and A Pretty Mocking of the Life, by Eoh WilHs New England's Children is the Thanks giving story by George L Putnam, and there are sketches by J. M. Levereque and Oliver Bell Bunce. All tlie depart ments, including Godey's famous fash ions, are excellent. The poems are by W. J. Henderson, Clark W. Bryan, Dan iel Doane BidwelJ, Sara Ring Wiley and ethers. Mrs. Arthur Rotch of Boston nd Miss Bertha Luddington Barnes of Chicago. Literary Xote For October. f Marion Crawford opens up a new line -of thought in his article entitled ' Rome, the Capital of a new Republic," appear ing in the October Cwmvpolitan. It is not likely that the October number will have the success which attended that for September. Tlie extraordinary spectacle was presented of a 12 cent magazine selling fur 50 and 75 cents, and many hundreds were even .told at 1.00 each. Probably tlie record remains without a parallel, in periodical sales, of a number proving so interesting that, after 211,000 copies had been sold, he News ompuny had orders for 50,000 more than they could supply, while dealers in various purts of the country, discovering the entecm in which the magazine was held, immediately raised their prices to double, treble, quadruple and in many cases to eight times the regular price. fhe publishers do not yet know what their real circulation is, owing to the limited capacity of their presses; but machinery is being put in place which will supply an edition f -r lcember ex- .ceding 300,000 a;id dui iug that month t will be possible to determine how many CuamnpiAiiant the public wili buy.
