W.R.R. has been spending a few days with the family ot E. M. Owen, iu this village. Gus Patterson and wife, of Chicago, spent Sunday with friends in this village. John M. Smith, of the Arm of Smith Bros., Osborne City, Kansas, was on our streets on Sunday. He was In the city purchasing the fall stock for that firm, and came out to spend Sunday with old friends. A. S. Wright and wife of Woodstock, spent Sunday in this village. F. B. Harrison, the Wauconda Drug­ gist. made our sanctum a call ou Friday. Sorry we were uot at home. A.A.Martin, of the firm of Perry & Martin, with his family, started Mon- dav for a visit to Grant Park, 111, WE would call the attention of our readers to the new advertisement of W. n. Dwight, Boot and Shoe Dealer Woodstock, to be found in another col­ umn. He has one of the largest stocks of boots and shoes to he found in the county,and as he makes this his ex­ clusive business, bnysjjand sells for cash only,he is prepared to offer induce­ ments to the buying public found , at no other store. Ho makes a specialty of the celebrated Selz goods, and there is no better manufactured. Read his advertisement, and, when in Wood­ stock, give him & call. THE wool growing farmer now wrestles with his sheep ticks, the hitherto negligent housewife with the bedticks, and the anxious office seeker with politics. So taking it al­ together it is quite a ticklish time of year. ' WE made a mistake last week in our notice of the sale by David Parker of his residence, in the West part of the village. It was bought by Mr#. Thorn­ ton and not John Flusky, as we stated. We were misinformed, which led to the error. /OFOWARI» COLE, son ot Harm Cole, of / Richmond, has been engaged by the I firm of Stevens & Schnorr, of this v'l- I lage, and will' hereafter be found at 1 that establishment, where he will be V liappy to meet -all his friends when \*hey come to town. WE have received a new advertise­ ment for the Arm of Stevens & Schnorr. too late for this week, but it, will ap­ pear In our next. In the meantime. ' remember that they Have piles of new goods which the buying public would do well to examine. IT'S funny! but a soft-palmed woman can pass a plate of hot chicken soup to her neighbor at the head of the table w<th a smile as sweet as distilled hon­ ey, while a man with a hand as horny as a crocodile's back will drop it to the floor and howl around like a., Sioux Indian at a scalp dance. NEWS has just been received in this village of the death of Dr. Win. P. Melendy, of Covello, California, which occurred at that place August 20th. Dr. Melendy was formerly a physician Of large practice here, but moved front this village about eighteen years ago. He was a brother-in-law of E. M. and O. W. Owen. (i \ THE law now makes the taking of a newspaper and then refusing to pay for It the same as a theft, and a New York State paper has already com­ menced criminal prosecution against several persons who have attempted to swindle the publisher. It is a just law and one that should be put oftener Into execution. THE reunion of the veterans of the Thirty-sixth Illinois Volunteers will be held at Crystal Lake ou the 23d inst. A free dinner will be given to the soldiers, and a general good time is anticipated. Judge M. L. Joslvn will set as President of the day, and Judge Smith will deliver the address uf wel­ come. _ THERE IS now a market for many ar­ ticles that are daily thrown away as worthless. Old rags and odds and ends of paper are worth money, and most any family can save more than enough of either one to pay'their subscription to one or two newspapers. Old brass and copper and lead command good prices and are always marketable. The prudent man will turn all these things to account. THO9K persons who desire personal notices of fi lends visiting from abroad, or who desire any other personal notices inserted, that are proper mat­ ter tor publication, will please send in said notices. While we are perfectly willing and glad to publish all such, the editor of a paper is not supposed to run around town to the dlfiereut houses, to find out who lias gone or who has come. • PEOPLE who are axked to patronize perambulating peddlers of printing, should know that they can get better and more satisfactory work at home, and at prices quite as cheap, consider­ ing quality of work and paper. Men 4^hosetid their own business of this kind out of town, cannot complain if they do not get their share of the trade from their neighbors. When oows learn to read, and horses want to be dressed in calico, instead of blank­ ets. it will pay to advertise on (lie fences--but It does not amount to much now-a-days. THE Republican Rally at Ringwood on Saturday evening brought out a good crowd, both old and young, and we venture th<» assertion that if they came there expecting to hear a good speech, they did not go away disap­ pointed. O. H. Gilmore, Esq., of Woodstock, was the only speaker of the evening, but he mnd«» one of the best speeches we have listened to dur­ ing the campaign. He strikes the De­ mocracy with plain facts and with sledge-hammer blows, and gives facts and figures that cannot be controverted. He Is a powerful speaker and is doing yeoman's service in this campaign. THE Senatorial Convention, for this District meets in this village to­ morrow, Thursday. The following are the delegates; W. H. Underwood. Riley; Win. Avery, A. D. Stewert, Marengo; J.C. Goodsell. Dunham; Lot P. Smith. A. W. Young, Chemung; C. L. Kingslev. Alden ; L. W. Sheldon, Seneca, J. A. Reed. Coral; C. M.

OWKN received his ap­ pointment to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, on Monday, and will depart for that place the last of this week. Young Owen is 16 years of ago, and is a youug niau of more than ordinary ability, as was proved by his excellent standing before the examining Board at Elgin, which secured his appoint- meut. His appointment is also a high |tribuie to the Principal of our Public ISehool, Prof. S. D. Baldwin, under I whose care he has been for the past live years. That one of his scholars jshould pass so creditable an examina­ tion ami receive thisappoiutment, is an honor of which he may well feel proud. To his new field, young Owen will carry the best wishes of every man, woman and child in this community, as he is honored and respected by all who know him. We predict he will come .back crowned with all the honors that Vjstitution can confer. COLBY BROS., who are the exclusive Agents for McHenry and Nuuda for John Foster & Co's celebrated Beloit Shoe, have just received a new stock of the same for the Fall agd Winter trade, and now flatter themselves they can offer a better shoe for the same money than any other house in thlrf section. They have so arranged their shoes that each pair is in a seperate box. thus avoiding the soil and wear of sorting thein over to find a partic­ ular size, and also adding much to the appearance of their store, the small boxes packed on the shelves looking neat, and tasty. Persons in want of Boots and Shoes should not fall to ex­ amine their stock before purchasing. Their mammoth store is also filled to Its utmost capacity with Fall and Win­ ter Goods of all kinds, which they have bought for cash and will sell at prices according. Their Dress Goods are al! new, seasonable and of the latest pat­ terns, and are well worthy the atten­ tion of the buying public. A\ exchange makes die following palpable hit on drones and croakers, which will apply just as well here as any plase we know of: "Either run your town with a vim, or just sell out and leave it. Men who are all the time trying to get out of business, or to get out of town, will never try to build up either. One of two things should be doue-^-push things; find means or a way to put some go-ahead into the business; run the town for all there it. in it; get up steam ;.keep it up or else quit the whole thing; sli«fe out and let nature have her way. Do you want trade? Bid for it. Do you want business men to come to your town? Encourage those who do come. Do you want to have a prosperous town, where people can come who are disposed to make it their homes? ^Then do away with, bury from *ight, all local differ­ ence, all jealousy, all spite; work no more for a few individuals, but all work together for a common prosperi- tv. and for a mutual beneilt. Wake up rub your eyes, roll up your sleeves and go to work. Don't go to work with a fear and trembling, but take it for granted that work will tell. Leave results to themselves, borrow no trouble,but all unite and make the big­ gest kiud of a try." tHK COUNTT FAIR. We found time to attend tlfe Fair at Woodstock but one day last week, and that the last day of the exhibition, and consequently are unable to judge of its success, either financially or otherwise. The attendance on Thurs­ day is said to have been large, but ou Friday was far below what it usually Is on the last day. The show of stock was fair, but not as good as we have seen it in former years. Dacv, the "Boss" Machine man had a splendid display of Bugsrles, Wagons aud Agri­ cultural Machinery generally, while Miller Bros., of Genoa Junction, Wis. had a good display of their handiwork in the shape of Buggies and Carriages. The new arrangement in Floral Hall was perfection itself, and the display of Paintings, Fancy Work and Plants was equal to the best. Whitson A Son and J. H. Earlie, of Woodstock, each Thad a fine display of Stoves, and arranged in a manner tnat could not fail to catch the eye of all who entered the Ilall.-- The vegetable department we have seen much better represented, and why tliis should be this year when there is such an abundance of everything in that line and that of the best, we are at a loss to know. We were on the ground so short a time and so late in the day that we are unable to give any extended notice either of what was done, or what was on exhibition, and shall therefore be obliged to leaVe that for others to do who were more favored with time and opportunity- During the afternoon we listened for a few minutes to a speech by some one calling himself Gen,! Healey, and from what we heard from the speaker and the remarks we heard from the crowd around, we were led to believe that the President, had made a great mi =- take in attempting to force liisovvn pe­ culiar political belief upon the patrons of our county Fair. There are times and places where these questions can be freely discussed, but tliev are not at County Fairs, aud any President or other officer who thus insults the peo­ ple. no matter wjiat his political be­ lief may be, should be immediately asked to step down aud out. To the door of such fanatics can be laid the turn-success of our Fairs. As regards the speaker he evidently knew as much about finance as Satan does about preaching. Many of his statements were so utterly ridicu­ lous that any school bov could detect their fallacy. If this celebrated Oen- erttl f from Rochester, N.Y., expects to make himself famous by hippodrom- ing in company with the Presi­ dent of our Agricultural Society, he will do jveil to study more amLspeak less, as every time he opens his mouth he isfeure to put Ills foot in it. If you will call your meetings. Mr. President, independent of the Agii- cultural Society j'ou will please the public better. We ask nothing for this advice. Greenback Meeting --IX MCHENRY.-- HON.

SM FTH, at his farm, one mile south ot Ring- wood. is now in first class running or­ der, where all can have their apples made into cider on short notice, and in the best of manner. This is one of the best Mills in this section, and no pains will 1>e spared to please all who coine. JOHN W. SMITH, WOODSTOCK. EIHTOR PLAIN DEALER: -- This has been a week of events, effecting both public and private interests. For many years the Rev. . Was the dl«penser of Gospel truths to the Get mans of this community. But for tli*> past two years, leaving his family here lie has labored in other fields. A few days since he came home, got into a row with his family, threatened to shoot his wife, was arrested, "bound over" to keep the peafle, pawned about #10,000 in notes and (mortgages and started back to his new held of labor. In the vineyard of the Lord, reached Chicago, entered a house of ill-fame, was robbed, made a complaint to the Polioe, recovered his money, got well advertised and again sallied forth to obey the command, "To preach the Gospel to every creature." Our Fair has proved itself true to the county whose name it hears, and all, or nearly all, are pleased with the showing and the result®. The show of cattle consisted of Durhams, Ayre- shires. Jerseys, Holsteins and Grades, each lot having lively competition.-- The horse show was as usual large and of good quality. The sheep pens were not all full but there wa« arespec table exhibit. The hog department was light, only two lots being on the ground, viz: Poland China and small Yorkshires. Farm and Garden Pro­ ducts were respectable in their show­ ing. The Gallery of Fine Arts was well filled. Dacy, Austin. Miller, Hau- perisch and Bishop made a fine display of Buggies. Wagons. Machinery, &c. The inevitable s'de shows were out in full force. The races were respectable and enjoyed bv the crowd. The Ad­ dress of Gen. Healey, of Rochester, N. Y.. would have been well received at a Greenback Rally, but was considered by most as inappropriate for the occa­ sion. The music was good »nd amuse­ ments enjoyable. The officers,superin­ tendents and committees worked with a will in the interest of the occasion, and deserve the thanks of the people of McHenry County for the h.ippy results and triumphant success of the McHenry County Fair of 1880. The Methodist society fed the multi­ tude. and whet: ail had eaten their fill to satisfaction, took up oft lie frag­ ments many baskets full. Judging from the comments the Mc­ Henry County Agricultural Board now have as good a half mile track and as suitably arranged Grounds and build­ ings as any in the State, and it is to be hoped that the people, particularly all those who bought their 50 cent tickets, whether4 lady or gentleman, will attend our next annual meeting in December, and help us to secure the best citizens the county affords, to man­ age the affairs of the Board for the year to come. The Woodsiock Dramatic Club gave two entertainments for the benefit of the Woodstock National Gur.rds. Full houses, financial success and well pleased patrons were among the re­ sults, A grand 4MM4 o*i F<-idny evening also contributed to the net proceeds for the benefit of the "Boys in Blue." The Democrats held their County Convention on Wednesday, nominated S. VanCnren again for Sheriff, ^E. C. Jewett for Circuit Clerk, J. S. Burrows for State's Attorney. We did not learn the name of the nominee for Cor­ oner, nor whom they endorsed for the State offices. On the I8th, if correctly informed, the Greenbackcrs are to have a grand rally at tliie place, at which their can­ didate for Governor will hold forth. We have been reading the prospects for.the Maine election, which comes oft to-day, and from a Republican standpoint we have good reason to ex­ pect cheering news to-morrow. Whether we win or lose the State, all must acknowledge the good general­ ship of Blaine in the conduct of the campaign. AUCTION SALE.
