One of our subscribers who is a con
scientious christian gentleman says that
wkile ho and his neighbors aro perhaps
mean enough to cheat each other, they
are not mean enough to try to cheat God

ing his priestly garb with the political
slime of the county superintendents office.
We only tried to write one artiole
this week and while we were writing it;
sot less than a score of candidates and

thing longer than a three line local again
until "this cruel war is over."

Mr. E. L. Grubb, of Elm' Creek,
showed us last Saturday, a branch of one

valley, and proposes to test the matter
to his satisfaction. He has a number
of young fig trees growing finely,' on hh
farm on Elm Creek.
A disgraceful street fight occurred
last Wednesday morning between Wm.
Mosherand Hjtcheock, the blacksmith.
The fight was brought about as is usual
in such oases by a dog, which helped him-1
self U some of Mosher s meat, and upon
being booted off the sidewalk raised a
bowl which brought the blacksmith to the
rescue. This town ia full of worthless
cur, and it would-' seem that it was better
to send nine-tentbs-of tbem to dog heaven
rather than men, should so far forget
themselves as to eogige inetrcet brawls

The law of this state requires that the
county clerk and treasurer shall make and
cause to be published, at least once a
year, a concise statement of the financial
standing of the county, Now, the only
question we have to ask in this connec
tion is, why h&vo not the people of this
county been favored with a statement of
this kind, once at least, in the last seven
years ? Echo answers why?

I naval, Sept. f, 1879.
Mr. Editor: Whilst the wire-pullers
and politicians are preparing for the cov
ing capaign, it may be interesting to the
readera of the CuiEf to learn buw one of
our county officers waa "givea away" by
a friend. The next day after an election
I met two men at Mr. N. Ayers. and be
ing informed 'hat they lived in Harmony
precinct, I asked some questions about
the election which they cheerfully an
swered, and one of them after telling me
bow be voted raid, "I did not know any
thing about tbe men, but 1 know Mr.
Jones, I think be ia a fine man. he threw
off the interest on my taxes and told me
about them." Or perhaps it might be
equally interesting to tharn to know how
one of onr county commissioners before he
learnt that all important phrase. "I don't
know, hut I'll ask Al," put me on the
track of how our county clerk and com
missioaers have brcn "pulling the wool
over the people eyes."
If any of your readers wishes the de
sired information, I will furnish it in a
futuro issue of the Chief, together with
how to pay taxes with a note that is not
due nor expected to be paid when due.

Inavale, Sept. 8, 1879.
Ed. Chief : Politics runs high in In
avale just at the present time, at least I
should think so, from the way the men
discuss it. Wherever we see a little knot
of men collected togeth'er we may be sure
they are talking politics, and their talk is
interminable, or so it seems to U3 womeo,
but we have no interest in it, because we
are told by the lords of creation, "it is
out of our sphere." We are at present
engaged (besides our usual avocations)
in preserviag and pickling the products
of the soil, und we do not have time for
our usual visiting and gossip, therefore I
have not much news for you. If the men
could only by persuaded to give us the
ballot, we should soon work a great re
form in politics and there would not be
as much trouble as there is now.
Perhaps yot are not aware. Mr. Editor,
that wo have a paper published here, it
is called the Inavale Palladium, and is
an organ of the Good Templers, which
order is in a thriving condition.
But about the crops. In tke words of
an old song. "Our potatoes, they are
small." The corn that was planted in its
season, between the 5th and 15th of May,
is a good crop, but that which was plant
ed early and late ia very poor. Onions, a
splendid crop, all other vegetables are
very good. Bktset.
Our Washington Letter.

That we are to fight Mr. Tildeo again
is becoming more evident every day.
The Baltimore Sun of this morning says:
"Yesterday and today brought to the
city a number of Democratic congressmen,
officials and politicians fram the White
Sulphur Springs, where they have been
rustic atine during tbe summer. One of
the number, who is a journalist as well
an official, says that he made it at point
during his stay to talk with all of the
many publio men of prominence from the
South who vitited the Springs on the
subject of the next presidency front the
Democratic standpoint From what he
heard he is firmly of the opinion that the
South favors the nomination of the old
ticket of Tilden and Hendricks. He does
not believe that there is any special love
for Tilden among the Southern people,
but they seem to feel that be is the man
that can win.
It may yet porxfe our Democratic
friends to show how a man for whom
"there is no special lore," can be the
strongest man in the election But, as
Gen. Grant said, the Democracy may be al
ways counted upon to make a blunder.
The public debt was reduced three and a
half millions in August. But for the ar
rears of pension act, the reduction would
have been raaeh greater. Payments un
der that act will be- eon pie ted this year,
and, with increasing revenue and cus
toms returns, the debt will be materially
reduced thereafter. The only possible
troable will be in profligate expenditarea
by the Democrats daring the brief time
they will hold poesessioa of Coagress.
There are- ahead? rumors of schemes for
enormous expenditures to be made with
a view of aHia the Democracy ia the
Presidential election next year.
