WEDNESDAY. OCT. 2, 1895. CAiewBAjy Just received from the famous house of Joseph Beifeld & Co., over 225, new, stylish and perfect fitting MST Batter on the Elgin Board of Trade Monday was fir to. Sales, 21,000 pounds at 22 c§nts. Last week the price was 22@22l/4 cents; last year 24*<®25 centa. I®*"The Irish movement for home rule in the Emerald Isle is beij/g revived in Chicago with the Hon. John F. Finnerty as leader. Mr. Finnerty was a promi­ nent figure in the Fenian raid of 1869 in Canada, and narrowly escaped capture when the "Queen's Own" dispersed the rebels. Ho editor of the Irish Citizen, is a vigorous writer and enthusiastic ih the cause of Ireland's emancipation from the wrongs that have been heaped upon it for more than a century. fGp* It will surprise' many people to learn that noc in Pie west, •with its broad fertile acres and big farms are to be found the most prosperous agriculture districts. The census returns show that the most prosperous county in the Unit­ ed States is Lancaster county, Pa., the value of its farm products for one year being $7,657,700. Next in order in an­ nual farm products comes St. Lawrence county, N. Y.; ?6,054,160 ; Chester Co., Pa., $5,85-3,800; Worcester county, Mass., §5,489,ISO; Bucks county, Pa., Pa., f5,411,S70; Colusa county, Cal!, §5,357 350. I A curious fact about these six countiee is that four of them. Lancaster, Chester, Worcester, and St. Lawrence voted at the last presidential election for Harri- Bin and protection, giving a total of 26,286 Bepublicau majority; the other two gave 693 majority the other way -Ex. adoisical humor of the eccentrics of Chi­ cago Will influence results in New York. We are moved to this notice of "inde­ pendent" peculiarity by the news of the bolt of a strong and respectable par.t of the Relegates to the Democratic conven­ tion of New York--a bolt" caused solely by preemption of the truth th&t Demo­ cratic success means Crokerism. Mean­ while the most actively reforming part of tlie Republican party is most active in support of what the eccentric press calls Plattism. We infer frdm this that Crok­ erism does not mean l^emocracjNjjut cor­ ruption. We infer also that Plattism does mean Republicanism, and >that this means reformation in New York. Nevertheless the eccentric press declare? itsglf ' independent" aud works towards the defeat of Plattism.--Inter Ocean. IST" The latest move made by Presi­ dent Cleveland in the interest of his partisan henchmen, but ostensibly to promote the civil service law, is in plac­ ing consular appointments under the direction of the commission. The sala­ ries *0f consuls which come witlmii the bounds of tSe order range from $1,000 to §2,500, and the offices are really sin­ ecures. The men appointed by the pres­ ent administration were partisan Cleve­ land democrats before the Presidential election took place, and it is fair to pre­ sume they have not changed or modified their opinions since. No examination is required of them as there is of applicants who desire to enter the government de­ partments through the regular civil ser­ vice door. Placing these people under the civil service rules by Presidential order is simply a subterfuge to provide them with a life position which they are not qualified to fill by examination,.and if possible to prevent their removal by the coming Republican administration. NEW RAILWAY The Waukegan Register has the follow- ing:. "Articles or incorporation for a new Chicago & Wisconsin Railway Com­ pany have been received at the office of the secretary of state a t Madison. The name of the new corporation is the Chi­ cago & Wisconsin Inland Lakes Railroad. The capital stock' is-divided into $10 shares and the aggregate issue is " for $10,000,000, all of which is to be com­ mon stock. The incorporators and di- •tee tors'for the first year are A. E. Case, F., Boden, G. I). Green, S. Marcos Roths­ child and A. J. Toolen, all of Chicago. The route of the projected line is described in the articles of incorporation as. commencing at a point in Chicago north of the south line of Twelfth street and west of the. west line of Lake Miclflgan on the east, thence west or northwest to the city limits of Chicago, through western Lake County to the State line of Wisconsin; through Wal­ worth County to Geneva andDelevan, on north to Jefferson County, and through to Watertown, with a branch line through Rock County to J.anesville, another through Dane County to Madi­ son, and still another branch running northeasterly through Walworth and Waukesha counties to the south line of Washington County. The total length of the proposed line is given as 185 miles. AN IMPORTANT DECISION. TheWaukegan Herald says: "OnMon- day, Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith, gave a decision in the land de­ partment that is of importance to many people in this county. It is in effect and substance that lands that were in the original United States surveys, omitted from the surveys, as being parts of the lakes in the county, are swamp lands, and covered by a grant from the United States to the state. This decision will settle a dispute cov­ ering the title to several thousands of acres of fine land chiefly in Antioch, that has existed for from forty to fifty years It has been a fight between " squatters rights" and land shark rights under United States scrip which was located on land never surveyed by the government. This decision makes void and illpgnl tho claims of the land sharks, and in our opinion will be the means of confirming the rights of the settlers. At least it leaves them without a contest now. They have possession and have had it for thirty to forty years and the only party that has any color of title against them, is the County of Lake, which for over twenty years has been working in the interest of these settlers. We rejoice at this favorable turn for these early settlers of Lake County." SOLON SCHOOL NOTE3, On Wednesday, Mr. Edwin Johonnott, late Prof, of Mathematics and Physics in Drury College, Springfield, Mo., visited the school. Mr. Johonnott is a young: man of very superior ability and gradu­ ated with the highest honors at Rose Polytechnic Institute, Terra Haute. On Saturday he leaves for John Hopkins' University, where he will take a post­ graduate course in mathematics and physics. John Hopkins' is, perhaps, the first American University, and the equal of any in Europe. Mr. Johonnott was warmly greeted by his old pupils by whom he is^regarded with affectionate admiration. On Friday the intermediate clas? .in geograpy did field work, capes, bays, islands, peninsulas, cliffs, and other features were examined along the Nif- persink. The algebra students are usin^ Giffin's work, a nook iust out and of superior merit. The author is vice-president of Cook Co. Normal. Each member of the geometry class is provided with a draw­ ing ease, containing a centimeter scale, a triangle, a protractor and drawing compasses. By the use of these instru­ ments geometry becomes one ol the most delightful of studies. The student can also see its practical value. W.G. RINGWOOD. N<*;preaching Sunday."

It is somewhat strange that the so- called independent journals that daily or weekly wail and lament over what they are pleased to term Plattism in New York never inform'their readers that the outcome of the pending election mmt be either a victory for Crokerism, which is Tamtoanyism, or Plattism, which is Re­ publicanism. Nor do they state this clear difference between what they call Plattism and what everybody knows to be Crokerism, namely, that whereas Crokerism is an active and evil agency, abhorred by many decent Democrats, that which they call Plattism is no more than the natural ascendency of a clear brain and a strong will in the councils of a party that gladly accepts the leader­ ship of a competent and honest man. Plattism--if such a thing there be--will not lead to the restoration of that sys­ tem of consolidated iniquity that was exposed, and in a great measure destroy- ed, by the work of the Lexow Committee. U Crokerism will. Yet the "independent t press" is supremely anxious that Platt­ ism shall be overthrown, which is to say that Croterism shall be're-established. Whenever a vicious system is in jeopardy the "independent press" is sure to come % to its aid. It is not likely that any considerable number of Republicans in New York will be defiectedjfrom support of the Republi- car^^didates because of the lamenta­ tions of the "(independent press" of that city. Mr. Lexow, chairman of the fa­ mous committee, is quite willing to serve under the leadership of Mr. Piatt, and so is Theo. Roosevelt, by whose coulrageous consistency the reforms made possible by the work of the committee have been cat- ried to effect. Still less is it likely that TO OUR READERS. This is the season when farmers, and others desiring to invest in farm lands, are planning for the coming year. At­ tention is called to the great opportun­ ity offered to secure lands at a very low- price that will double in value is a short time. The income per acre is about the same as that fromv high priced land Oats average from 60 to 80 bushels per acre, abundant yield of hay and other grains, vegetables, etc. Climate, water and railroad facilities are good. Those wanting unimproved land can find no more favorable location. Special induce­ ments are offered during the next thirty days. Railroad fare paid if you buy. For further particulars write the C. S. Graves Land Co., 56 Fifth Avenue, Chi­ cago, who have an advertisement in this paper. WOODSTOCK. - Horse sale next Wednesday. Our coal dealers were kept busy during the cool weather.

The dental parlors iu this city will be left, in his absence, under the skillful care of Dr Balluff, of Evanston, 111., who comes among our people with the very best recommendations as an expert in hie profession. It has "been roughly ca lculated that the. weight of our atmosphere is about one ton to every square foot of the earth's, surf ace; 215,000,000 tons per. square mile, or -5,000,000,000,000,000 tons ou the total of 200,000,000 square" milfcs which go to make the total of tlie earth's area. Again, according',to. thfc estimates" of the authority for the above, a cubic mile of air weighs about 10,090,000,000 pounds. This , mass when electrified, or put in motion, by other forces, develops cyclonic power equal to 4,000,000,000,000 "foot tons" of energy. If you wish to know why the tornado (cyclone) is usually so de­ structive, figure on the fact that the force of Such storms is generally equiv­ alent to more than 2,000,000,000,000,- 000 horsepower ! The total horsepower of all the engines now working in the world is only 49,000,000, and of all those in Xmerica, both locomotives and stationary engines, only 7,500,000. Compare 7,500,000 with 2,000,000,- 000,000,000 and see how insignificant it looks! Is it any wonder that the cy­ clone, "the rushing demon of the air," leaves ruin and destruction in its path? --St. Louis Republic. AN Arkansas paper tells the following about a field of tall corn growing in that state: "The startling story comes from out near Beatty, that a farmer sent a hired man up a corn stalk last Tuesday t<£ see how the ears were filling, and the poor fellow has not got down yet. He is making every effort to climb down, but as the corn grows much faster than he can climb, the matter begins to look serious. The farmer succeeded Thursday in sending up a basket of provisions by attaching the basket to the tail of large kite built for that purpose, and he thinks if the situation does not change be will send up a long rope by means of a kite so that the fellow can be pulled down to terra firma. It also tells of a single pumpkin vine over 2,000 feet long covering an acre of ground, and bearing over 100 pumpkins." , THE BEAUTIFUL ROCKIES.

Poetry and Music. It must be remembered that song is a combination of two arts, in which each must exerciitrlits own fuuctiou and must respect the office of the other. In the ideal lyric, such as those of Heiue and Schumann, the poet draws an outline which the musician colors, and where" they are in perfect sympathy there will be perfect unity of result. But if the one goes on to complete the picture, if he prescribes every nuance and every de­ tail, there is no collaboration possible, for nothing is left to the other but com­ plete subservience. There will never be an adequate setting of the " Bugle Song" in "The Princess," not because the verse is too musical, for such a plea is a con­ tradiction in terms, but because the poem is too full. What is the composer to do with such a consummato liue as: Blow, bugle; answer, echocs, dying, dying, dying--? . Shall he follow the suggestion of the words? He is but echoing the echoes. Shall he disregard it? He has missed the poet's meaning. The whole field has been occupied already, and if, he claim a share of the tillage he must take sta­ tion as a serf.--Macmillan's Magazine. An Effective Lie. A youug French advocate in the course of his address to the court flourished about his hand in such a manner as to show off a magnificent diamond ring. He was young, good looking and was pleading for a lady of quality who de­ manded a separation from her husband. The husband, who happened to be pres­ ent, interrupted him in the middle of a period and turning to the judges ex­ claimed theatrically, "My lords, you will appreciate the zeal which M. X is displaying against me and the sin­ cerity of his argument when you are informed that the diamond ring he wears is the very one that I placed on my wife's finger on the day of that un­ ion he is so anxious^ to dissolve!" The court was struck with astonishment and rose immediately. The cause was lost, and the advocate never had another. To add to the poignancy of the catastrophe, the husband's insinuation had no foun­ dation whatever in fact.--San Francisco Argonaut. NEAR THE DEPOT. WEST MoHEKRY, ILL.
