In speaking of the Miles'ill
case the Journal states lithe
courts of the land will not allow
the estates of dead then to he ell'-
spoiled. " Right you arl' If
anyone doubts this let hil11 read : \
the two opinions of the supreme
court of Nebraska. 'I'he courts
are not going to permit he t Miles \
estate to be despoiled. They ill
see that the property goes to
those who arc entitled to it under
the law , and that no one who has
thc blood of Stephen B. Miles
flowing in his veins , shall be de-
pri\'ed of his inheritance to make
wealthy the grasping and \\'ari- \
cons man who seeks to impoverish -
ish those of his own blood in
order to retain the possession uf
this vast cstate.
The protractel meetings at thc
Methodist church have attracted

grams. Sleigh loads of young
people have attended from Pres-
ton , Salem and other surrounding
towns. Much good is sure to be
accomplished by these religious
gatherings.
About a year ago a man named
Jake Harris comnittcd : suicidc I .

particulars of the suicide of 1ke
Harris one of the best known
men in the county If you ' see
it in the Auburn papers --don't
believe it.
Chas. Humphrey of Yc.rdon
attended the "Isle of Spice" Sat-
urday night. \Ir. Humphre\ is
thc editor of the Verdon Ycdette ,
which he and his estimable wife
ha \ 'c made thc best paper pub-
lished in a town of like size : in
the state. The people of Verdon
should appreciate the Yedette
and should show their appreciation -
tion in a substantial man nor.

The hardest working , most ac-
com dating' and poorest paid man
in Uncle Sam's employ is the ru-
ral route man. The past three
weeks have becn the wintlr of
his discontent and if those he
serves have not done anything to
help him along , they should make
amends without delay.
