EBITOR PLAINDKALER:--It It useless for us to occupy space in your columns describing our Convention Saturday last, as you were present in person your readers will get all the particu­ lars in your report. It is sufficient to state the Hurlbut men went home hap­ py. Boone too gives her vote to Gen. Hurlbut, while at this writing not enough has been heard from DeKalb and Kane to decide how they have gone. The Gen. and his friends have this to console them. It was here where the fight commenced two years ago. li was here his enemies fought the most zealously, here were they de­ feated in convention two yettrsago and now are they defeated again. And the PLAINDEALER has this to congratulate itself, viz: It was the newspaper that was in sympathy with the people on thi« question. Vive ikI PLAINDEALER.

SOLON. .. , x; KDITOS T PLAINDEALER:--Sfr. and Mrs, Monroe, formerly residents of this place, have been speuding a portion of the past week with their old neighbors, and in their hasty review of the past, have brought to memory many little transactions Which time had almost obliterated. J. Haider man hits sold out his interest In the Threshing-machine to A. Huff­ man, who is now the sole proprietor. The Union Sunday School picnic held In Mr, Craines grovo lastv Saturday, was largely attended, by scholars end teachers from the schools of*Washing­ ton, Spring Grove and Solon. The order of the day were swinging, feasting and singing. All who attended were ap­ parently satisfied, that they had had another good time. That favorite pet of Jack's, the mountain goat, becoming disgusted with the actions of its muster, since town caucus, determined to leave the ranch, and spent last Sunday in Solon, undoubtedly thinking if one would not be called a lobbyist they must fcvold being seeu with£he lobby's. <» O. Bishop, has put in a deep well |iump for Mr. Hornby 105 feet from the nozzle down, which beats anything we have ever seen of the kind. A child eight years old pumps water with ease, ami Mr. Bishop says he can put one In 800 feet with the same result. Our quiet streets were disturbed last Friday evening by one of our peace making citizens wishing to strike CiiG of the rufi scuffs of the place. This same ruffian has been blatlng around the streets for some time, trying to make a disturbance with some one, and has undoubtedly 6aid. and done enough to warraut him a good beating, but we think lie Is not accountable for his actions, as God has deprived him of any reasoning faculties, and being backed up Into mischief by that other spindle shanks, the public ought to overlook all that he says and dqes. Such men ought however to be watch*d, for we heard the remark the other day. "It is cheating the gallows to let him run at large." RlNGWOOO EDITOR PLAINDEALER:--Our village Is still Improving. Only a few weeks ago a new Blacksmith* shop was opened, and in the past week a new Paint Shop has followed, and there i« some talk of another shop being opened of which we will give the details an soon as It is settled. Ringwood has the best farming land around i t in the Northwest, Is well located for business, and we are now having eight trains a day which gives us coiumlnicatlons every few hours with Chicago, Our young afnl enterprising mer­ chant, J.

Our Public School opened on Monday with prospects of a large Attendance of pupils from the surrounding towns, and from Lake couuty.

Don't shoot the doves of your neighbors little boy. It won't pay whether you are a ralulster or lay­ man. Utter, of the Gazette, was a good Hurlbot man two hours before the cau­ cus, but his inasfcr, Ward, went up and told hi in what lie must do, and he played Into the hands of the Lathrop crowd. Now, I suppose, If Ilurlbut i* nominated he will want some more pap. Not if Stephen knows himself. Thank God, the people of Mctlenry Co. had sense enough to go for a man of brains and character, for Congress, Instead of the Imbecile, played out, do nothing, *'nice man," Lathrop. For God's sake give us a little brains in our Congressman. Johnny Vjse says that Jim. AJdrlch believes that Dr. S. F. Beunet Is the PLAINDEALER correspondent from Richmond. So It goes.

The County Convention has oome and gone, and the two belligerent Richmond delegations were not able to "bust'1 said Convention.
