Well here we are pgaii after so long a silence. General prosperity abounds, and the people arc correspondingly hap- Rev. Geo. 0. Yeiser will preach morning and evening at the Baptist church next Sunday, and the atten dance will be large should the day be a fine one, Sir. Yeiser being well liked by our people. Our temperance saloon is running night and day, and the clinking of glasses, the smell of cigars, and the click of the festive billiard ball come floating upon the air, reminding one of the good old times when wc had two regular licensed saloons, and got a couple of thousand annually for our school funds, But this year, with a temperance board, everything is mn ning itself, and nobody aeenis to care. But it is an ill wind that Mows no good, and Red Cloud and Superior will reap some benefit from our mis fortune. But-more on the subject in the future. Well, what has become of the pol itician and his henchmen? Not a single political aspirant has as yet openly put in .an appearance. This unusual calm no doubt pcrtends a storm, and we may look for a regular old cyclone when it does break in upon our beloved and christian village breeding coldness, bitterness, and, for a while at least, contempt and hatred, among our otherwise peace able and loving citizens. Now if wc could only provide for Red Cloud and Blue Ilill without all this racket how happy we would be. Rocket. .

A citizen of Walnut has jnst reeciyed the following letter from the ''great be yond:"' "Well I am dad. The first I knew of the fact ".vas when I woke to find myself knocking at tho 'pearly gate' which was opened ly Pater, who sniilingly, extended his hand aud said, 'Ah! it's yon, I've bf.n expecting you, having read of your sad takicg oil .and knowing here would be where you would put np.' Well, he con tinued, 'how's times' I etartad to eay d d hard, when a warning 'Sh' nnd n furiive look over his thoulder checked me in my headlong career. After a short chat Peter remarked, "Well I suppose we might as' well look over yonr account"' which we proceeded to do. First he drew down an old file of Red Cl,oud papers and glancing at some marked articles called iny attention to them. They were sign ed various names such as Ponderer. Gro ver, Judge, etc. There wasn't an article that failed to state 'The Man in the Moon has n jugVhe has a little bottle' he had a jug etc' Peter remarked 'Years ago the news was threadbare and why does it keep coming?' I told Peter to 'come off' and not to fire any conundrums at me. He continued 'arc yon guilty or not guilty !' and I answered by throwing myself on his mercy. 'That's right' he remarked 'and we will make short work of your case but first I would just like to satisfy myself on one or two points. First where was you that 15 years in which yon were missing' to which I replied; 'I was serving my time buying stock for an Inavale feeder,' 'Why did you quit the job?' 'I didn't quit, I was fired.' 'Why?' 'Because in all those years 1 brought in nothing but good straight steers, never a heifer and the boss had no use for me.' 'Who took your job? 'The Judgu, Ponderer, Caesar, etc. who at present is directing affairs of state for the Democrat.' 'Did he keep his job?' 'Xo.! 'Why?' 'Because he suited the boss too 'well and brought in one heifer too man-.' 'Just so we all heard of that affair. His next ques tion was 'Did you'ever while accompanied by your jug bottle or anything of the sort get enthused enough to slander a woman?' I crossed my heart and said 'ho.' He turned me arouud to the light where he could get a look at it and after critically examining my nose said, 'Well its all there and I guess yon are telling the ttuth, and stopping rae on the back he continued, lilt the rest of us yon have sinned bnt that yon have never slandered a woman covers a multitude of sins. Here put your name on the regis ter.' After my name was on the book he nudged mo in the ribs saving. :Ycn havent got a bottle with yon have you," whereat I heaved a sigh and sadly said 'No. Judge Ponderer, and Caesar were present at my funeral and went through the corpse.' Well I am settled here and- getting used to things. My Bpecial duty is to keep the flics off of Peter. A day or two since I overlooked him putting some black marks against Walt Mason's name, of the Lincoln Call. I asked him why and he said. 'Well I hated to do it but when Walt let ont such a string of oaths I had too. Yen see Mason had jnst read the Demo crat and recognized Caesars effusions as a garbled report of one of the articles in the Call. It was enough to make him swear. Tho other day Peter asked me say, who is rnnuing the Democrat now? I told him that the evidence went to show that the Devil was running it in which view he agreed with me. A day or two since I ran across a lot of lady nngels violently weeping aad in my usual gentle way tried to comftrt them but like Rachel they refused to be com forted and finally told me the cause of t"eir grfcf which wannat wiP heroine of Webster county IenirratN thisfali with a republican in rlnrse of their inprr. Aft r ron-Iiieiins the matter I rnucluileu it was (.'iioimh to make un anjrel werp ami let them ket on boo-hooing.
