The social entertainment under the man
gemeiit of the farmers alliance on the
rening of the 14th inst. at the new Canyon
Creek hall, was pronounced by those in at
tendance to be a decided success. Tha am
ateurs held the attention of the house to
the stag until midnight. Then L. P. Wil
liams sold at auction the lunch baskets.
All sold well. Out of some twenty-five
baskets 00 cents was the least that any were
sold for. The basket of Miss I.inie Jen
nings brought the highest price, it being
knocked down to John Corner for $3.00.
The tale or baskets netted the hall f'.XUS,
which will go toward purchasing a new
stove and other necessities for the hall.

A few farmers will have to re-sow tbeir
winter wheat, but several fields that were
considered seriously injured are coming out
nicely under the influence of the gentle
showers and warm days of the last two
weeks. Grass is growing rapidly and old
timers say that the back-bone of winter is
broken. Well, we hope so, but March may
yet prove a lion.

strayed or stolen," as it has been gone some
time and the most diligent inquiry fails to
bring news of it.

The Young People's Alliance of the Evan
gelical church met at the church last
Wednesday Evening and had a most enjoy-
'"awe time. The program, which was quite
lengthy had been well prepared and every
individual rendered his part well. These
, meetings are a benefit to the young people,
, especially those who take part in the pro
gram. We meet every two weeks and gene
rally have a crowded house.
The moderate weather we are now enjoy
ing is arousing our farmers from their win
ter's slumber, and they are putting their
arm implements in a proper condition pre
paratory to the spring campaign.
Born, to the wife of Frank Grossmiller, a
girl.
One day last week, as Frank Grossmiller
was sawing a log in two the log began to
pinch the saw, and he began to saw from
- the other side. In a short space of lime the
log gave way and Frank, not being quick
enough in lifting the saw out, somehow got
his arm underneath it and received an ugly
gash in his arm. He went to Dr. Thomas
who immediately sewed up the wound.
Frank new carres his arm in a sling.

Master Vorhees and Lecturer Miller, ac
companied by gentleman from Owego,
were present, making many speeches.
Dinner being a thing of the past when
your scribe arrived, lie took In the
speeches and the situation. The Oswego
gentleman was introduced as one look
ing for a wife, who carried away the
sisters with his poetic swells for a time,
but when he began treading on woman's
opinion, telling bow to grade butter or
how not to grade it and comparing such
a grading to the merchant who marked
his lady's shoes all down a number In
order to sell them, then is when the Pig
Iron brother got into a wasp nest, as
there was talk of greasing his shoes with
soap grease butter to create a demand
for the same. "No telling what would
of happened had not his friends come to
his rescue. This grange is contemplat
ing building a ball in the near future,
which will be a valuable addition to the
order and the community.
Miss Minnie Austin went to University

daughter of Dr. Leavett of this place,
who is taking a collegiate course at thut
institution.
Protracted meetings closed last week
here and at Teasel Creek. Kev. Gard
ner, Gray and Thomas are able men.
Pastor Thomas, however, spoiled one of
his last sermons by advocating the
ethereal wave theory of light and sound,
which has been proven time and again
to be a fulacy, yet in advancing this ex
ploded wave theory, the pastor did only
what many college professors are ad
vancing fur science today from the text
books.
Smyrna Smacks us "Jona," of
Smyrna, wherever that place may be,
takea issue with my complementory no
tice of Rinearson's behavior in the leg
islature, and modistly concludes by ad
mitting the possibility of "being out of
place on such matters." If a neighbor
hood scribbler hasn't any right to
scribble who has? But "Jona" dues not
agree with me well that is all right also,
lie says ."we know any amount ol re
publicans who voted the entire ticket
from governor to coruner without a
scratch." Now this "any amount"
might include more genuine republicans
than really voted ; for instance 100,000 is
oneof any amounts and I venture "Jona"
has no certain knowledge of 1000 repub
licans vo'ing the ticket without a scratch
remernlier, without a scratch much
leHS anv amount, which is, indeed, more
out or place than my assertion "every
body seems." "Jona" may think thia
quite a AhIi story, yet lie ought not to
swallow all of the old whale in its pres
ent condition.
Kineaiflon's statements i
at.tlm recent Harlow anti-Dolidi meeting
does not seem to please "any amount" !
of republicans, including "Jona''. Now
I presume those sentiments were anti
Dolph sentiments, and the young legis
lator would not be side-tracked by an
insignificant Dolph petition of forty
names from a city of 5000 inhabitants,
when he had in his pocket an anli-Dolpb
petition of 300 names from the same
place. Did not Dolph himself ignore
republican platform resolution in his
Baltimore speech? Did not Senator
Brownell take a stand with the "antis"
and the populist too before his election?
Did not the Oregonian talk different
twelve years ago about the "antis"?
