W J. E. CA&TJJKIWS. Si Mil. RICHARD THOMPSON'S land office teTJ TJ boom seems to be waning with the de parting summer. THE Stratton Herald is keeping pace tb with the prosperous village it represents. tbM It has just enlarged to double its former pc size. THE county election promises to be an quite interesting ; in fact , considerably more so than was surmised a few weeks on since. REPORTS now are to the effect that the cholera in Spain is decreasing day ey by day , but the devastations to date have been appalling. ou THE Indian ' th Territory stockmen's "days of grace" were ended August dt 31st. They are doing their utmost to bu comply with the President's order. itot ot THE great spectacular painting , "The the Battle of Gettysburg , " will be among CO the attractions at Lincoln during the ofW state fair , and it will draw a great crowd. W It is undoubtedly the finest and most he attractive work of art in the world. cri tic A SUBMARINE boat has been invented UI that will descend to a depth of 800 feet CO in the sea with perfect safety to the oc to cupants. There will be an immense th demand for it as soon as a decent extra pi dition treaty with Canada causes the at ne tention of bank officials to be turned to it it. A man roaming about 800 feet down itwe in the sea would be likely to perplex a we sheriff. Topics. isno not THE British tones Tiave about arrived su conclusively at a basis of peace with qU Russia. It is to be feared that Russia tn was inclined to play upon Mr.Glad the stone's well known proclivities in the thwl way of peace. At any rate when a party arl came into power in England that had a jn fighting reputation there seemed at once tive to be a cooling in the warlike spirit of en the Muscovite. Topics. ind ADDITIONAL LOCAL. VAILTON NOTES. We are glad to note that the sick have near ly all recovered. R. F. Williams has added a large tract to his territorial domain. Mr. McCroskie looks for his family to ar rive about September 1st. J. F. ilegnie and his son Andrew spent a few days at the old Clay county home. Mrs. Smith has sold her fine farm on the south side , and will probably remain in the east Mr. Baldwin was the lucky purchaser. This is surely a busy time for the farmer. A large amount of feed has already been put up , and there is a fine outlook for the fall harvest We understand that W. L. Ferris returned tiie first of the week , to his home at Dundee , 111. He expressed himself as well pleased with this land of promise. 3Ir. Simonton , son of Judge Simonton of Superior , has been spending a few weeks in our midst He is a son-in-law of Mr. Sprague and may locate near Vailton. Mr. Harris is making considerable improve ment on his place on the north side , as indeed are many others , were we to presume on your space , but we simply note ( lie fact. We are informed that Miss Seaney has re turned to Illinois , her former home. Miss Seaney will be greatly missed in the society , as she was quite a favorite with the young people. Quite a goodly number of Vailton people attended the festival , Wednesday evening , three miles west of this place , and report a good timebarring the disturbance at the close. Boys , use a little discretion next time , and don't let a difference of a few pennies lead to such a disgraceful finale , especially where wo men and children look to your chivalric man hood for the protection , which the laws of society , as well as our statute , entitle them. Not being present we cannot give an account in full of the literary part of the programme , but it was pronounced excellent in all its parts , especially the music , which was well rendered by the Misses Sanderson and others.

The facts con dlnt nectedwith the Box Elder festival'set rather heavy on the young man's shoulders , they could not icsl on his HEAD , that article is too soft In tho first place the personal slur that he offered did not hit the mark , as SE- LONN lias never had the pleasureof enjoying the inhospitality of the Indianola Sunday School , with which he leaves us to infer they treat a stranger , andu ; doubt very much if the author of the article in the Courier ever saw , MUCH LESS KNOWS-what the ninth com sam mandment is. 2d. He tries to creep out of the scrape by offering a flimsy excuse , which , how ever , will not l > ear investigation , for if he had read the columns of THE TJUBUNE , as every good man should , he would certainly have seen the announcement of the festival , M which ] fully sot loi Hi the object And again , he had had his eyes and ears open , he N could have known all about it , for I am in formed that the festival and its object were of freely talked of on the streets of Indianola. Sc , Mr. Local Editor , or whoever you are , you atU. will have to try something else. Again let U. me say to the author of the Courier article , read ; THE TKIBUNE carefully , it may help yon keep the commandments.

Violence is not excusableperhaps , but men are apt to feel in the mood for when their pay is not forthcoming and other men step into their places , making strike , the only means of speedy collection , of no avail. When a quarter a year has elapsed since a man on In ! wages has had any payment made him is sure almost to be out of money , credit and subsistence. He has no prac InL tical remedy but a strike. The closing L of the business of the corporation compels it to find at least enough money induce its men to return to work. So that when other men offer to take the places ; of the strikers , continue the busi ness of the corporation thus making against its interest to pay back wages it is a mighty patient man who wouldn't feel like fighting. The striker not always wrong , if , indeed , he is right oftener than wrong. But in R such cases as has been mentioned is a Question if he can go so far as to be en tirely wrong. In the case referred to strikers went promptly back to work when the railroad authorities agreed to arbitrate. It is a question , however , just how much of this was due , to na F propriety and how much to the pres ence of a strong posse , with military cannonJournal. . C. E. McPHERSON & CO. U. S.

IT is intimated that Germany wants Cuba and that the present imbroglio with Spain is a step in that direction. If old Bismark has his eye upon the Gem of the Antilles he may as well take it off. The United States will never allow its transfer from Spain to any other nation except itself. All European statesmen may as well take ib for granted that the price of Cuba is a war with a nation that feels superior to any nation in the world , Topics.
