The people of the south end want the county scat located at Indeiwndeuce and the jieoplc of the north end want It left right where It 1 at Dallas. A new Jail and court hoiife are sadly j needwl in Polk county; but owing ' to this sectional matter no county 1 court can ! elected that is pledged I to build them at Dallas. The people j of the south end will probably try to elect a legislative ticket that will in in favor of an "enabling act" to bring the matter before the people ! at a -peclal election. For the good ' of Polk county jiolitics and for the l general proierity of the county, we I would like to &ee this vexed ques tion settled once for all. SKritKTAKY Vilas rendered a de-ci-lon in a land case a few days ago, which will be of Interest and com fort to homestead settlers. The settler in question was absent all summer after making the first settle ment: was again absent all the next summer, applying the proceeds of his labor to Improvement of his claim. The third year he was away from spring till January, to earn more money to pay on the land. Ik-cause of these long alisenccs, the commissioner rejected the proof, but the secretary reverses this decision, and directs that a patent be issued Polk county needs a Jail. That fact has lieen demonstrated a num- lier of times within the past year, notably when thedooroftliestrong- hold (?) was kicked down and Kelty was taken out and hanged, and a number of times since in escapades of culprits. The last proof was fur nished by two boys, incarcerated for hore stealing, who burned a hole through the floor of their cage, dropped down Into a lower story through It and merrily took to their heel", to the great discomfiture of the perplexed sherili'.
