The present fair wea'her is enabling

it more than probable that one-third more
acreage will be sown this year than at;
and that the wheat product of the county
next year will be at, least one-third greater
than this. The more the metrier!

nothing of ti.e v atter, we do not knqw

not. There is this much certain: we do

Per consequence there was much verd'n-

nice something unheard of.betore, but
lierhups satilactory to thosa most interest-

.Marshal had never resided wiihin tbe city
limits, but tbe fuanauers ddn't care. The
allot box was never locked, and when a

lid of the box was ra Sed and the ballot
brown in. This was a new proceed ure;
but the ballot-box was alright, siuce. it was

Id citizen had deposited his y te and had
walked away, he was called back and cbaW

on a visit for a abort time, was declared not
citizen, The big rush of the day was
made by those who desiied to put the high"
est possible tax on the railroad, and some
of the rushers were railtoad men. So the
election was carried, strange las it may
seem. Nert a ay after election, tlie managers
threw out the vote of the old citizen, and

thing was done brown, and a memorable
contest in a great city ended.
