Kind friend , you are mistaken
for we assure you it is no troubl
to make poetry , single or double
The little showers of rain thn
come occasionally appear to be do
ing more harm than good and th
com is going fast.
Citizens ought to be allowed t <
travel the public highways in thei
business avocations without being
insulted by abusive language.
It does not seem at all strangi
that people do not like to have thei ;
faults mentioned in a newspaper
That is making public what every
one would like to keep secret.
The farmers can all hitch uj
and leave , as far as we are con
cerned. What is a farmer wortl :
after his crop is gone ? And the\
can take the bugs of all descrip
tions along.
Your correspondent visited or
the upper Driftwood , first of the
week , anel from McCook to the
Stone ranch the best piece of corn
we saw was that on James Mc-
Adams' place , farmed by Doav
Hovey.
We had the pleasure of a de
lightful ride , one day this week.
Whether it was the scenerv alone
the road , the mode of transporta
tion or the company we had , we
decline to state.
Yes , there was a howling elesert.
Where the clouds come night anel
day , And the farmers smiled a
little , For they thought they had
come to stay : But the clouds rolled
by without -any rain. And the
farmers were silent auel gloomy
again.
The thunder roared last Satur
day night , And the lightning flash
ed one blaze of light ; But the
rain went we don't know where
Only we are sure it elidn't stop
here ; We have waited until the
clouds rolled by , Waited with hope
and fear , And now like other croak-
? rs We are going away from hpre.
But not today or tomorrow , be-
sause we have to stay here long
anough to hear what the other
3roakers have to say.
