WAI,TKR HiU, Captain. FARMERS In search of Agricultural Machinery, Repairs, &c., should not fail to call on E. M. Owen & Son. who keep on hand at all times Agricnltural Tools of every kind, from the most re­ liable manufactories In the country, which they sell at living rates. Read their advertisement, and be sure and give them a call before purchasing. As will be seen by the call at (he head of the editorial page of this pa­ per, the time for holding the Repub­ lican County Convention has been changed from August 28th to Sept 1st. This we consider a wise decision on the part of the Committee and one that will meet with the hearty ap­ proval of every true Republican in the County. The object of Conventions is to get a true expression of the people, as regards the candidates, ar.d not to suit the caprice of some individ­ ual who may have a private axe to grind. Therefore we say the change by the Committee was a wise on®. The time recommended for holding the Primaries was also changed from Aug­ ust 27th to the 28th. Town Commit­ tees and others interested should make a note of the change of time for holding the Convention. THE dirty, low insinuations put forth in the Woodstock Democrat of last week, in relation to the Supervis- orscontesl in this town, coming from the source they do, are hardly worth noticing, as the individuals who con­ trol that sheet, are only capable of do­ ing the dirty work for such as call themselves Democrats, and not haying one principle of justice and right in their miserable carcasses. The facts are that not one who pretends to be connected with that sheet heard one word of tiie evidence in that trial, but formed their opinion, (if they ever had an opinion of their own) from what was told them by the tool who has been doing the dirty work in this case. We shall not occupy time nor space at this time to argue with these mongrel Democrats, as wo do not con­ sider them worthy the powder, and no' capable of receiving or tailing the ttuth4n any form, it being foreign both to their nature and occupation. As regards the final result of the suit in question, we have only to say "the end is not yet.*' We arc not satisfied and propose to show who the rascal Is in tliis case. THE travel to the Lakes continues unabated, and quite a large number are going and coming each day. The Steamboat makes two rsgular trips every day. The water in the river never was know,n so high at this time oTyear, . ./.•" - -f** WE would direct especial attention to the advertisement, in another column, of the Elgin Academy. This Institution is under the charge of Prof. A. G. Sears, as Principal, assisted by a competent corps of Teachers, and no pains aro,spared to make this institu­ tion of learning second to none in this part of the State. Read tbe advertise­ ment carefully. GEO. OWEN, of the firm of E. M. Owen A Son, has bought of C. H. Beers, a colt, six weeks old, for which he paid the handsome sum of $100. The colt was sired Ivy Lakeland Abdallah, the dam being the fine Pacing Mare so long driven by Dr. Beers, afid so much admired by all who saw her. The colt Is certainly one of the fiuest specimen's we ever saw, and is pronounced by horsemen to be one of the best colts of tils age In the State. Lovers of fine stock x should not fail to see him when in town. /^A PETITION has been in circulation f praying our Supervisor to call a special election for the purpose of voting a Tax to build a new bridge across Fox River, in this vijjagfi. It has become an actual"necessity that a new bridge be built the present season, and we hope the work may be pushed for­ ward at once. We learn that a Mil­ waukee firur have put in a bid for an Iron Bridge, i^e trust that when our Commissioners commence thoy* will put up a good and substantial structure, i* will pay In the end. WE have received a book entitled Southern Kansas, written by a mem­ ber of the Chicago press. The book is neatly gotten up and well written, contains full map and gives full and re­ liable information in regard to all counties in Southern and Southeastern Kansas, the more fertile portions of the State--with map of each couuty.-- Also valuable information in regard to the great lead and zinc mines of South­ west Missouri and Southern Kansas.-- I'he book is for gratuitous distribution, and may be had free of postage by addressing J. E. LOCKWOOD, Kansas City, Mo. ft should be in the hands of #V«ry person going to Kansas. IN answer to a letter which we sent out asking for a little bill long past due, we received a reply, which, after making many excuses, closes by asking: f What is money?'* We answer: Money is a sort of a necessary go-be­ tween In civilized communities, but t06 often a tantalizing go-by to mem­ bers of such communities. It is a motive power; thus '-money makes the mare go.* It is a serious stumbling block in the way of those who would lead up­ right lives, It being "the root of all evil." Again, "time is money." and money is time, (a long time coming.) It is a powerful "•argument" in politi­ cal campaigns, It is a good thing to have on hand. We could give any number of correct au&wers to the Tqtteatiouvbut win let it rest here. site' POLITICAL. Dr. Tanner maintaining life on it diet of water isn't so great a curiosity as the Democratic party's long exist- anee on a diet of wind. A New Hampshire farmer has put out a flag bearing the names of Garfield, Hancock, Weaver, and Dow, and be­ neath them( "Take your choice." If the Democratic press had appealed half as fervently to the Democrats til 1863 to follow Hancock as they do now, there never would have been any ne­ cessity for the draft. A report prevailed in New York Sunday eveniug that Mr. Ttlden was dead. He emphatically denied it. but the New York delegation to the Cin­ cinnati Convention don't agree with him. John G Whittier's letter endorsing Garfield causes the Democratic papers to remind him that he had better cotte fine himself to poetry. They never did advise freedom of speech.' Gen. John A. Logan opened the "Re- publican campaign in Illinois by a strong speech at Murphysboro, his old home. He spoke for two hours and a half, and was well received. i The Greenwich (S.C.) News declares Republican meetings it* that State "will not be submitted to. The Re­ publican National committee cannot be too prompt in trying that issue OU the soil of South Carolina. In adopting Hancock as their can­ didate tbe Democrats have tried to throw oil on the troubled waters. Bat the oil only floats on the top. and Is tossed hither and thither just as the troubled waters please. Hancock may be very good political oil, but he isn't going to make the Democratic troubled waters any calmer or any clearer, Bhlldozers are at work in Texas. A* F. Bissell, inspector of customs at Val- asco, Brazoria county, in that State, re. ports to the treasury department that he has been compelled to leave his post because he made a speech at a Repub­ lican meeting. He asserts he was In­ formed that a party of twenty-five men had decided to take him from his house in the night and hang him. The United States district attorney is mak­ ing an investigation. TOGETHER with a party from this village, we made a trip a few days since to Twin Lakes, which are situa­ ted fifteen miles Northwest of this village. These Lakes are comparatively new as a Resort for the pleasure seek­ ers. but nevertheless are finely located and surrounded by the most beautiful scenery. Capt. Ackerman's grounds and Hotel'are fitted up iu good shape, and at this time of year he Is full to overflowing with guests. Ho has a little Steamboat which is a model, both as to appearance and comfort for those who wish to make excursions around the Lake. The Captain is a genial, whole- souled fellow, who is always ready to do ail in his power to make it pleasant for ail who make him a call. Between the two Lakes is the Rockford Grounds owned, and occupied during the Sum­ mer season by the Waltonians and Nippersink Clubs of Rockford. These Grounds are tastily'fitted up with Tents, Sidewalks, &c., and is a mi na­ ture village in itself, where during the hot season the members of the Club rusticate with all the comforts of home at their command, and yet free from the cares and perplexities which daily crowd upon them when at home and engaged in business. On the banks of the upper Lake we found the Woodstock and Richmond Camps which are very pleasantly located, and when improved will he the pleasantcst loca­ tion on the Lakes. We met many old acquaintances during our stay and spent a most agreeable and pleasant day. We predict these beautiful little Lakes will some day become very pop­ ular with the pleasure seeking public. ST. JOHNS CHURCH. Algonquin, bav­ ins: gone through repairs, and being renovated within and without, will be reopened on Sunday August 1st, with appropriate services at 3 P. M. to which friends far and near are cordially invited. PETKR ARVIDSON, Minister in charge. Frank and Jess® Jamea. Hon. J. A. Dacus, of St. Louis, the well known editor and ex-Member of the Missouri Legislature, has written a carefully prepared "Life and Adven. tures of Frank and Jesse James," which has been issuetl by the well known publishing house of N. L\ Thompson A Co., of that city. Mr. Dacus, we are informed, spent two years In the preparation of this work njach of which time was spent witli the family and friends of the James boys, whose friendship and sonfidence he gained, and who gave him all the facts concerning their antecedents and ancestry as well as the factB concern­ ing the almost numberless robberies, dashing raids and vengeful murders committed by them during the twenty years of their career in as many States and Territories. The book is the most startling record ever made in history. The careers have no parallel in the history of highwaymen. Bold and dashing to a degree that seemed reckless to personal danger, yet they have never been apprehended during this long period, though rewards to the amount of $75,000 have been ottered for their arrest, dead or alive. The book is sold by subscription, and we are informed by the publishers that 21.000 have been sold iu tour months. Agents are reaping a rich baryest with | it. We advertise it iu another col- ff9"The Mark Lane (London) Ex­ press. ot last Tuesday reviews the grain trade, and reports that the un­ seasonable weather in England is hav­ ing its natural effect upon the market. The result of the past fortnight's rain has been Increased activity. Both English and French stocks of native wheat are reported practically ex­ hausted, and the present consumption of both countries must be met by im­ portations- Meanwhile there Is no abatement of th<} continental demand, while buyers have been holding off until the stocks on hand are very low. Should the rainy weather continue a further marked influence uport the market is predicted. An advance of a shilling nil around is noted, and tlup market for the week closed firm. The Republicans expect to elect Garfield, but their expectation Is based on the fact that he is better qualified for the Presidential office than Hancock. He is a statesman, \yhile Hancock ip a mere military man* He is the representative of a party which was true to the government and the federal union when it was assailed by treason, while Gen. Hancock repre­ sents an organization which sympa­ thised with the Confederate States in their effort to break up the govern­ ment. Afl this is the undeniable truth, and will serve to swell the vote of Gen. Garfield and diminish tiiat of his op­ ponent. In a word, the Republicans expect to succeed because they believe fhey have the best nominee and the best cause, and are prepared to put in any amount of good hard work. he Cincinnati Enquirer Is a principal organ of Democracy in the West. On this account an article pub­ lished in its issue of Juno 4th, concern­ ing General Garfield, has much foree. and will bo looked upon as honest tes­ timony, coming as it does from a polit­ ical opponent. We epitomize its articlc as follows. There seems to be some prestage of success hanging about Ohio names, and Garfield's is a strong name, He is in- Comparably a larger man in intellect, iu political standing and in sturdy manly qualities than Hayes. The treatment which the Chicago conven­ tion is giving hiu) has such spontaneity and warmth that his hold upon the affection of the party in the country at large seems surprisingly broad and secure. The course of balloting in the Chicago Convention cannot accurately predicted. The contest may take such a turn that Garfield may become a possibility and a probability. There would be some sense in casting the vote of Ohio for Garfield, and there are evidences that his name would be kindly received by the convention, while Sherman's is not. . There are some delegates from this State who would prefer an Ohio man to a Maine man. or to Grant, who, though born in Ohio, has ceased to be regarded as a representative ot this State. Is net Garfield, after all, the logical candidate ot Ohio? He has had wide experience in public life. He has represented his dietrictfin Congress sixteen years, and at the expiration of his present term will have served eighteen years in that body. He lias just been elected to the United States Senate, so that when he leaves the South end of the Capitol, it will be to move over to the North end. He lias a creditable niillltary record.He rose to the rank of Major-Geueral in 1803. He has education, cultivated instincts, is not without liberalty of sentiment, and has commanding ^all- ties as a legislative leader. rex.:"' ESTBAY.

EDITOR PI.AINOKAI.KK The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few and the frequent rains cause the fann­ ers to indulge in some expletives botter to be imagined than repeated. The pota begin to simmer and the two leading parties are busy gathering faggots, while the Greeubackers are hunting for a skillet iu which to cook their "Sass," for next November.

Whether they are the executive committee of a Garfield and Arthur club, or the execu­ tive committee in the interest of certain candidates for local offices. Nevertheless everything is moving in the hearts of the people with a zeal for a sueoess of the Republican cause, with the two stalwart Soldiers and Statesmen for our Standard bearers, that only such as seem to be looking to self aggrandizement, any more than give a parsing comment.

EDITOR PLAIHDEALER:-- The Waii- couda nows nut ha» been ripe almost to bursting for a niunberof weeks past and no one inclined to crack the darned thing. I own an average ham­ mer and with your permission wili^hit it once for luck. A series of protracted meetings, held In a tent pitched ou the Public Ground, have attracted no small share of public attention for several weeks past. Sortie good has apparently result­ ed from the earnestness of these pray­ ing and presetting ones and the friends of the cause are endeavoring to hold ;he attention of the newly interested by holding moriiiiig Sunday Scliool and a song service ou each 8unday In tbe Methodist Church. After each heavy rain our main street presents a truly disgusting picture. We are credibly Informed there yot remains considerable poll tax to be collected aud why in the name of common sense and decency It is not collected aud used, is a pussier for more than one who lias spoKeri of the matter. Mr. Ned Diiers, who returned from Leadville some time since, has bought the notion rig formerly run by the well known "Charley" Adams and Is on the road. Ned's many friends in this section will wish him success in the new field. 1 The young ladles of the villsge. to the number of 30 or more, filled with a noble ambition not to be outdone by the b'hoys. chartered the Steam Barge on Friday and set sail for "The Point.'* The weather was simply glorious and perfeetly solid afternoon of fun- genuine rollicking fun--ensued.-- Swings, Hammocks and Lunch.--Oh! lunchj*. luncliy, lunch, Yum, yum,-- were the principal features of the en­ tertainment. Whether the fair ones disturbed" anybody is not reported.-- As no religious meeting were being held within at least a mile or two of "the point" we presume nobody was seriously disturbed. Can any one see the point? It Is but just In this connection to refer to the habit some of our other­ wise admirable citizens have of "call­ ing names." A party"of young gentle­ men (we use the term tn its highest and broadest sense.) may conclude to spend a Sunday afternoon In the woods, off. away from everybody llablo to be disturbed. It is possible, perhaps, for them ,to hold some of the ideas pecul­ iar to thls llberal day and to be just as honest in their convictions regarding the manner in which Sunday should be passed as those who differ. Now In what kind of taste Is it for these differ­ ing ones to resort to the questionable aud puerile practice of denouncing some of our most promising yonugmen as Bridge port Roughs" "Miserable Brawl­ ing Fellow»'s and so on? Would it be as well for these christaln ( ?) gents to go to a friend quietly, if they tliink him in error, aud reason with him?
