For several nights an innumerable

authorities abate this nuisance? The
flies and mosquitoes are bad enough, to
say nothing of the Ireat and then to be
kept awake for the few moments one
might sleep is intolerable. We are
informed that there aro something
less than a hundred dogs here that
have no owners, dogs that have been
left by emigrants, and lost. Now,
gentleman pass an ordinance .asking
every white decent man with a white

Centaur Liniment
There Is no paJn vhicti the Centanr Liniment
will not relieve, no swelling It wi!l not subdue.
and no lameness which it will not cure. This hi
strong language, but it is true. W here the parts
are not gone, its effects sire marvellous. It has
produced more cures of rheumatism, neuralgia,
iork-jaw, palsy, sprains; swellings, ear-ache,
caked-breasts, scalds, burns, salt-rheum, &e..
upon the human frame, and of strains, spavin,
galls, &C,, upon animals in one year than have
allothet pretended remedies sinee the world
began. It is a counter-irritant, an all-healing
pain-reliever. Cripples throw away their
crutches, the lame wilk, poisonous bites are ren
dered harmless, and the wounded are healed
without a scar. It Is no humbug. The recipe is
selling as uo article ever before sold, and it sells
because it docs just what it pretends to do,
Those who now suffer from rheumatism, pain or
swelling deserre to suffer if they will not use
Centaur Liniment, more than 1000 certificates
of remarkable cures, including frozen limbs,
chronic-rheumatism, gout, running tumours, &c.
have been received. We will send a circular
containing certificates, the recipe, &c, gratis to
to any one requesting it. One bottle of the yel
low wrapper Centaur Liniment is worth one
hundred dollars for foundered or sweenied hor
ses and mules, or for screw-worm in sheep.
Stock-owners this liniment Is worth your at
tention. No family should be without Centaur
Liniment. J. B. Rosr & Co., New York. 40-ly
Castokia Is more than a substitute for Cas

Some fellow up by Parmele's lumber

the other night, because he had to wait
so long for somebody or something.
Thinking the man wanted lumber and
seeing Mr. Parmele coming down the

'there comes 2Ir.P.if you want lumber."
Don't want any lumber, want to buy

REMEMBER THE STA1E FAIR.
Next week our Seventh Annual
State Fair commences at Lincoln.
Every arrangement has been made for
the convenience of exhibitors and vis
itors. It looks as if we should have
tho best Fair Nebraska has j-et held,
and it behooves our farmers and me
chanics to make as good a display of
our productions and inventions as they
can. Many strangers will be present
from other States, D. JI. Wheeler, the
enterprising Secretary having adver
tised it most thoroughly.
Kellogg Concert.

PLEASANT III DOE SUNDAY SCHOOL.
This Sunday School held a picnic on
Saturday last in Nick Holmes' Grove.
Speeches were made by the Rev.
Messrs: Bartle and Arnold. The brass
band of Four- Mile Creek discoursed
some good music, and a bountiful
lunch helped to make things pass pleas
antly and sociably. After dinner, Mr.
Mutz and Mr. Gilmore addressed the
children a few moments. Over 150
people were there and all enjoyed them
selves honestly and heartily.
Reports of the Sunday School were
then read and everybody went home

ANTI-MONOPOLY MOYE.
Nearly all the precincts of Cass
county were represented by delegates
or proxies at Weeping Watef Falls, on
Saturday, August 23.
Dr. J. F. Kenaston, of Stove Creek,
was elected chairman, and F. M.
MacDonagh, Secretary.
A County Central Committee was
chosen, who are requested to meet at
the Secretary's office, on the County
Fair ground, at 1 p. m., the second day
of the Fair.
It was decided to call a county dele
gate convention to meet at Weeping
Water Falls, Saturday, September 27th,
at 11a,m.
The basis of delegation was decided
to be one delegate for every fifty, or
fraction thereof f roin cach of the pre
precincts of the county on the total
vote.
Each precinct is instructed to hold
its preliminary meeting in good time
to select delegates, who shall fairly
represent the popular voice.
Resolved; That the proceedings be
furnished the county papers for publi
cation. J. A. KENASTON, Ch'h.
F. M. MacDonagh, Sec'y.
We publish the above report, as we
have all others sent us, as matters of
news'. This report 1.1 from the Secre
tary's own minutef , as you will see.
The Herald had a reporter of its
own at that meeting, and there were
9 people in the house , all told, six of
which took part in the proceedings,
and 3 were spectators. If six people
cm represent all the precinct3 in Cass
county; there must have been an in
fertfnl Tot of proxies.

A COUNTY FAIR, Oft NOT A COUNTY
FAIR J THAT IS THE QUESTION.
"Will the time and money spent in
getting up a County Fair return to the
people of the county an equivalent in
money 6r material prosperity, to say
nothing Of the pleasure?
How much of the improvement in
animals, grain, fruit, vegetables and
machinery is due to the influence of
county and State Fairs? Of course it
is impossible to tell very accurately ;
but we. think at a rough guess that
twenty per cent, is due to their influ
ence. It is there that the best the county
produces is on exhibition, and every
man can see how mucn it is superior
to what he possesses.
Suppose that in ten years from now
there are in this county one hundred
thousand hogs. That number of Berk
shire hogs woidd be worth half a mil
lion dollars more than the sttriie num
ber of the native breeds, such as were
in the county ten years ago. In this
estimate I count their extra value as
breeders, their quietness, and the less
grain it will take to fatten them.
Twenty per cent, on a half million dol
lars is one hundred thousand. The
same thing holds true in every other
department of Agriculture;
Again, look at the advantages of
such a place as the Fair grounds for
buying, selling, and exchanging prop
erty. The in and in system of breeding
animals, brings a heavy loss upon many
of us who do not feel .able to pay 620
for a Berkshiie, each year or two, or
SI 30 for a Durham. Now we can take
them to the Fair and exchange for
others just as pure and good. Every
man ought to take to the Fair a sam
ple of all the grain and vegetables he
raises ; then we can tell who has the
purest and best. There are but fetv if
any fields of corn in the county but
what are mixed to some extent, and
for that reason, sells for a less
price in market. There should be a
united effort in this matter
The annual Fair is the place to buy,
sell and exchange. You can see more
men and do more business in two days
at that place than in a month riding
over the country to see the same men
and find them not at home. Therefore,
commence now a memorandum of all
the men you wish to see, and tl!e' ques
tions you wish to ask, and have it
ready at tho Fair on the 10th, 11th and
12th of September, for everybody and
everything will be there.
There will be Durham cattle, worth
their weight in copper if not in gold,
and hogs from Old England. Let Cass
county show the world what it can do.
