Tlie Herd Law.
We hear many complaining oyer
the present herd law. There area va
riety of opinions upon the effect it
will have in this county. Many in
nist that it will drive all the stock out
of the county, and that it will drive
cur stock growers and dealers, with
their capital, out of the State. That
it will discourage farmers from culti
vating the hedge and that it will work
an irreparable damage to the prospects
of tho county. Others, on the con
trary, think it will foster the cultiva
tion of the hedge; making cattle rais
ing profitable, and materially increase
the real wealth of the State. We
doubt not that these parties aro sin
norn n fhoir convictions, and that all
intend to advance the public good, re
gardless of individual preference.
Practical experience is the best test
by which to try our theories, by this
we may see whether our conclusions
are to follow from the premises. In
this county. Lafayette precinct, above
nil other portions of the county, has
liad to contend with all the evils
which we, and all the anti-herd law
men, think so sure to follow its en
forcement. Washington and Benton
precincts, just as good for farming
purposes, if not better, and just as
large and the same distance from the
river, have been strenuously opposed
to any and all herd laws, and would
have nono of them. Now, when we
are asked to account for the fact that
Lafayette precinct contains two hun
dred voters, while both the other pre
cinctq, taken together, can hardly
fount that many, we are forced to say
tho herd law lias done it. When wo
ask why it is that Lafayette precinct
has ten miles of hedge fence growing
to every one mile of such fence to be
found in both Benton and Washing
ton, the quick reply comes from herd
and anti-herd law men, that there is
no good reason for this unless it be
the herd law which has been so strict
ly enforced in Lafayette the past five
years. When we are asked why it is
that Benton and Washington precinct
ttssessmeut rolls do not contain a
greater number of horses, cattle and
mules than Lafayette assessment rolls,
Arc are compelled to soy, after all we
may be mistaken in thinking that a
herd law will drive stock out of the
country. Now, we are far from say
ing what may .be good for tho back
precincts would be equally good for
the river ones, and we fully under
stand the difficulties of tho men who
Jive near the dividing line between
herd law and no herd Jaw precincts.
Still we believe tho old herd Jaw sat
isfied more men than does the new
riho. We are not of the number who
think the herd law is attended with
no evil results. "While we see the
difficulties and acknowledge the bad
effect it may and will have upon our
prosperity as a county, we are not
blind to the greater difficulties and
worse effect it would have upon our
prosperity, as a county, to suspend
the operation of the law.
As great as are tho supposed, evils
on either side, we fear far more, the
bad effect of this uncertainty with
which both sides aro laboring under,
and will until this matter is disposed
of by oither the commissioners or tho
people. It should be settled either
one way or the other at the earliest
possible moment. Many think our
herd, law writers facts and arguments
may bo easily met and answered,
then why don't they do it? We.
think this, tho man who can, and
does not is direlict in his duty to tho
public. There are many voters who
c&ro little upon this question, so the
public interests aro truly served, and
they aro seeking after just such
facts as you say you have. Then
send them in, wo of all men, would
je glad, to. see and read them, and
vhatis more, would be happy to
make them public.

t nrnin of tlie Ketv Town
Of
"Ayev intUe Jytate of Massachusetts.
Many speeches were made oil this
occasion, but among the number we
notice the following from Dr. J. C.
Ayer the "great medicine man" af
ter whom the new town was named.
Ladies and Gentlemen :
On the western coast of Scotland
where it slopes into the Irish Sea; a
river, rising on the mountains Pthe
inner land, into the Frith of Clyde.
From remote time it has befcn called
A -..r frnm nn old Scotch WOl'd "AVry,"
mpnninrr nn encle's nest the river of
the eagle's nest. Jfeir its mouth and
a contiguous harbW,4 long stood a
hamlet which became' a. royal burg or
town named Trdfri. SUtfrivor, and' imw
about one-lliird as large as Lowell
tho pU.v nf Avr. For more than a
thousand years it has been noted in
the history of Scotland. During the
wars of Eobert Bruce it was one of
his resorts, and was especially favor
ed by him because he was there cured
of leprosy. Oliver Cromwell made it
ond off hd dppats and headquarters of
his army in his attack upon Scotland,
ahd'oneof his old forts is now the
Citadel'ofAyr, ' "
But above all its distinctions, Ayr
was-tbc btii-iJcfi of theiioet Jiurns
And what a poet ! What a voice- has
he given to all thef endearments of
home! How has" he hallowed the
cottage and all it covers weans and
wife, patches and poverty, beans,
barley, and ale, hardship and the
poor man's toil. How ho wraps with
tenderness whatever he names, even
his bleak leagues of pasture, the stub
ble field, ice, snow, sleet, and rain,
brooks, birds, mice, "thistles and
heather. His Bonny Doon, John
Anderson, m Jo John. Auld Lang
Svne, and Highland Mary roll round
the world in ever ringing symphony
with what is purest; and best in hu
man nature. His soug3 woo and
melt the hearts of youtli and mai
den's, 'bring solace to the sorrowing
nnrl fioiirairo to the overburdened by
fiipirlnr VTis inspiration has set
the affbetions to music in strains that
are immortal.
No other on? man ever made a Jan
anVflMwii.' but he lias rendered
H.oV!,ty,Wi.ml Rpofah a Doric dialect
of fame. The name of his home and
his beloved river Ayr was lifted on
the wings of his pathos, and now tlie
approaching traveller yearns to reach
th snot his cenius has sanctified.
Along tho borders of the sea in a
nnrallelOKram
ana surrouiiuinij iub
tovn is a county
of the same name
Ayrsf.irp.
It would weary your patience to
hear the history of my ancestors from
one ancient John of Ayr, then John
Ayr clown thrqupch tho centuries to
this Ave now before you; through
their vicissitudes of poverty aud plen
ty of fortune and misfortune; how
t'hej- have intermarried with Eng
land, Ireland aud Scotland, and later
with the Americans, who are an ex
cellent mixture of them all.
My Friends, 3ou have chosen the
name I inherited for your town with
an extraordinary unanimity, and
have thereby conferred an 1'onor up
on me. the proper a.cknwl.dgenient
of which I do not feel (ully. a. to
express. But I oeg you to b& assured
that it is appreciated and Uat it will
be greatfuljy. remembered "ft'H a liv
ing interest in your prosperity while
life remains to me, and, I trust, bc
yon.d thajt by my children after me.
Iff this ivcmie ha3 become noted
r,mong the many that are worthier
aro.und yp.u, that is greatly due to its
pubjifity.' Iay I be permitted to
tgto 'whence that came? Until
within a few centuries al the civil
ized natio,n.s of the. glo.be Ye.re pent up
on the. Eaem portineqt. '-ivo or
three hujidreq years ago they leaked
over in'tOj this ; few and fearfully at
first, then more aud more but al
ways in their settlements timidly
hugging the Atlantic coast. Vthin
the last two or three generations,
they have burst out, as it were, and
over-run these vast continents of the
West. Now they are scattered here
and possess these ijieasurejess stretch
es of mountains and" valleys, hills,
plains, forests and prairies with the
poundless pampas and mountain ran
ges of South America, former gen
erations lived in. Wages and towns,
thickly se.ttjpd together where physi
cians were plenty and near at hand.
Now, tbe people are widely scattered,
in many sections, of these many
countries. For great numbers ' the
timely treatment of physicians can
n.ot be had: over large tracts of coun
try good or competent physicians
cannot be had at all. They can not
visit patients enough, many miles
anart to live by their profession, nor
can tty " carry medicines enough
with them on horseback for their re
quirements. Hence has arisen in
these modern times, a necessity for
remedies ready at hand, 'with direc
tions for their use a prespnt recourse
for relief in the exigencies of sickness,
when no qthej: a,id is near. It is a
new necessity' consequent upon the
ehauged conditions of hiinrcn life a
yaht I have spent my years iri siip
plpiqg, and I will tell you something
of its extent, tiur labqnitqry makes
everp day some 630.0QQ potions or do
ries qf qiir preparations. These are all
taken by somebody. Here is a num
ber equal to. Iqp pQpulation of fifteen
cities, qs largo qs Lowell, taking them
every day (for sickness keens no Sab-
i qatusi nor for once ouly, but. again
and again year after year, through
nearly one third of a century. We
all join in the jokes about medicines
as we do about tho Doctor's mission
to kill, the clergymen's insincerity
and the lawyer's cheating. Yet each
of these labors among the most se
rious realities of life. Sickness and
its attendant suffering are no joke,
neither is the treatment of them.
This system of transportable relief,
in he iVinde available to the people,
must keep its remedies fresh in their
memories. This is done by advertis
ing. Mark its extent. An advertise
rviorif: tnkinrr the run of the news
papers with which we contract (some
1900 annually) is struck off in such
numbers, that when piled upon each
other flatwiso, like the leaves ot a
book, the thickness through them is
sixteen miles. In addition, it takes
some seven millions of pamphlet and
twelve millions of circulars- tp.m.eet
the public demand for this kind of in
formation. "Our annual issue of pam
nlilnf filmio. laid solid upon each oth
er, make a pile eight and one quarter
miles high. The circulars mered
endwise reach 1S74 miles, and these
asertions are matters of mathemati
nni rortoiiitv. Wlirit ever the estima
tion in which theae publications may
be held here, they reach the P.rc-id.s
of millions upon millions of men who
do treasure and regard them, and who
in their trials do heed the counsel
they bring.
Not only over these great Western
continents but throughout that other
land so little known to you, under
our feet, the Australian continent,
there are few villages as large as this
which are not familiar with the name
you have chosen, and employing the
remedies that bear it.
