Sometimes a man is looking for a puff and don't get it, then, be says the paper is going down hllll, and that it is in the hands of a monopoly, and he would stop subscrib­ ing if hedid*not have to pay his bill first Writing a newspaper puff is like taking the photograph of a homely baby. If the photograph does not represent the child with wings, and halosand harps, it shows that the artist does not under­ stand his business. So it is with the newspaper puff--if the puffed doesn't atand out like a bold and fearless expon­ ent of truth and morality, it shows that the puffer doesn't understand human R nature.

He died at Ids home April 21,1892, bis being 78 years, 9 months, and 13 «ptys. He eame to the State of New York in 1844, and after staging a short time he then went to Iowa. In the year 1846 he came to Wanke- gan where he remained two years, when he came to the town of Greenwood, and worked for Mr. Lewis Peat. He was married to Christiana Harrison Feb. 10,1850, who died April 26,1886. One daughter was born to them, Novem- 30,1850. Mrs. Richard Lawson, who re­ mains to mourn the loss hf her departed parents. Frank A. Valentine, an adopted son, came to their home when only five years of age and remained with them until he was twenty-one, and is now regretting very much that he cannot be with them at this time, circumstances being such that he cannot leave his home, which is at Fairfield, Neb. Thus has passed from our midst, one of the truly good men of the earth, and who will be missed in many a place, for he was everybody's friend. It is not often that we look upon his like. He will be remembered by the poor, and the stranger, for none were ever turned away empty, from his door. He was indeed true in every place, and ready to respond to every just and reasonable call of duty. There has been no more upright man, ever to tread the streets of Ringwood. No one will say that he has not been an honorable man, in all his business transactions and in many' varied rela­ tions in life.

Also for the beautiful flowers presented by his old neighbors. MR. AND MRS. R. LAWSON. Benaeleia as it Is Cruel. People passing along our streets a few days since, says an exchange, had their attention attracted by a handsome horse which had been left standing by the curb. The animal's head which was held high in the air, moved uneasily from side to side in a vaih effort to find relief for the ach­ ing muscles of its neck and as plainly as a horse could speak, the tortured brute begged for the removal of the cruel over- check which was causing such acute pain. How long the suffeiing animal's head had been forced to endure that unnatural po­ sition nobody knew but it was evident to the most careless observer that the pain was severe and nearly every one had a sympanhetic look or word for the poor victim. It is impossible to condemn in language too emphatic, the use of check reins which force a horse to carry his head un­ naturally high, simply for the purpose of making him present a more stylish appearance. A good horseman or a humane man would never be guilty of this practice. The man or woman who knows and loves a good horse can see nothing attractive in the distorted posi­ tion of the animal's head and aside from the cruelty of the custom it is repugnant to the sense of beauty and symmetry. Members of the humane society would be justified in relieving every horse they find suffering from an over-check, but it is hopeless to expect that the reform will be universal until it is made promi­ nent by unmistakable public sentiment. That sentiment it should not be difficult' to arouse and properly directed it will be irresistible. (QTThe western "rustler" who to at war with the large stock owners of Wyoming, is to some extent the result of the struggle of small owners for an ex­ istence against large capital They sav they are poor ranchmen defending their homes. The large cattle ranges are owned mainly by eastern capitalists,' few of whom live in Wyoming, and their busi­ ness is done by agents who have little consideration for the rights of others. The big companies have driven the smaller owners to the wall and appro­ priated their lands. The poor farmers have supplied themselves with meat by killing stray cattle and have come to be allied with regular cattle thieves who make it a business to run off cattle from the ranches. The stock companies sought relief by legislative enactments to sup­ press the evil, but the rustlers elect the sheriffs and all local officers and prevent" the enforcement of the laws. The stock­ men have therefore taken the law in their own hands and the result is a war be­ tween desperate antagonists and the governor of the state has been called on to interfere. While they are in very bad company and clearly wrong one can not help feeling a grain of sympathy for the small ranchmen. ^ tSfFrom the reports and estimates prepared by the Chicago Exposition authorities for the Congressional Investi­ gation Committee, the following interest­ ing facts, among many others, appear To complete the exposition and conduct it to its close, will require of the Direc­ tory a total expenditure of $22,246,403. Up to March 1, the total expenditure was f3,860,934.

There is probably not a man in the city who would be missed more than genial 'Gene' O'Connor. He has lived here for the last twenty years, where he has been prominent in business, political and social circles, always having an opinion on aii subjects and never afraid to express it. He wa$ sincere in his beliefs and a harcf fighter for the same. While he never posed as a para­ gon of virtue, he was always true to his friends, a kind father and a faithful hus­ band. The funeral was held Sunday, at the Catholie church, Rev. Father Hogan officiating, who paid a high tribute to the many good qualities of the deceased. Large delegations from Woodstock, Marengo and other towns were present at the burial.

The DMMCiwit*ii- Pennsylvania, in convention asasmblsd, have solemnly de­ clared that they are in favor of "the gold and silver coinage of the constitution." This 5b commended in some Democratic quarters as a "sound" utterance. But what does it mean? The Pennsylvania democrats should quote the provisions of the constitution on the subject, if they can find them. A diligent search will fail to bring to light any article, section or paragraph that will aid in interpreting the remarkable declaration that has been quoted. The "gold and silver coinage of the constitution" is a myth. It has no existence except in the ^imaginations of those who used the word in a spread- eagle, spectacular sense. The constitution says (article 1, section 8, paragraph 5) that congress shall have power to coin money and regulate the value thereof, and (article 1, section 10, paragraph 1,) that "no state shall make anything bnt gold and silver coin a ten­ der in payment of [debts." Thus the coinage question is left to congress, with­ out any policy being outlined or sag- geBtod. The reference by the Pennsyl­ vania Democrats to the constitution is a dodge, and anything but an artfiii one at that. It can be accounted for only by the fact that the Democracy is in the habit of trying to win victories by mak­ ing vague announcements of its views. But this is not a year which promises success for campaigns of humbug. The people want to know something definate about the men and measures for which they are asked to vote.

Whether a higher duty would prnvotre S^ter prcd^r,tivsa«So ou the part of that industrious animal, the American hen, was a question with which they loved to tpy, and they considered it a grievous outrage on the Canadian competitor of the American hen when the Canadian egg-producers were called upon to pay five cents a dozen into Uncle Sam's treasury for the privilege of the United States Markets. However, the McKinley tariff on eggs has already produced results which ap­ peal to the American farmer and are too important in a financial way to be treat­ ed lightly. Canadian producers sold nearly 16,000,000 dozens of eggs on this side of the border in 1889, valued at over $2,500,000 and nearly 12,00,000in 1890 valued at nearly 1,600,000. In 1890, under the McKinley duty, the importations of Canadian eggs were re­ duced to 4,263,875 dozen, valued at $533,497. The reduction in importations of eggs from Canada, of course, was not attended by any reduction in the American con­ sumption. The effect of the McKinley duty has been to enlarge the American farmers market for eggs--to the extent of $2,000,000 , as compared with 1889, and $1,000,000 as compared with 1890. The McKinley duty on eggs, like many another McKinley duty, is no longer a matter for florid rhetoric, but has become an economic affair of the highest impor­ tance." It is certainly so realized on the border where there was direct compe­ tition, and it is realized in Canada.
