When we first. started | heard a good deal cf complaint about out we} dry weather, and the remark was, general that ‘unless it rained soon,: the late corn was ‘‘gone up.’ In} fact, people began te look a little blue, but the rain came, just in the | nick ot time, and it had a wonderful effect.

They say now that | the corn crop will be as large as any Trade | in the} ever raised in Bates county. has taken a new impetus towns and cities in this section, and a general brightening up 1s_ plainly | visible. At Rich Hill we were smiles and a cordial hand-shaking from many friends. Right here we | would say that during our trip the | TIMEs was universally received with | favor, and it and its editor | wished unbounded success. Its ad- herence to sound democratic princi- ples pleases the party and they ex- press a determination to stand by it through thick and thin. The demo- crats here are wide-awake, deter- mined to firm, shoulder to shoulder, and carry their candidates to complete victory. On Vhursday morning we made met with | new stand arrangements to visit Sprague, situ- ated some five or six miles west ot Rich Hill, on the Gult road.

On Friday, being in the vicmity of the somewhat famous city of Walnut, | we concluded to pay it a visit and, boarding a wagon, were soon there. We had heard so much about Wal- nat (now called Foster) being dead that we expected to find it extremely dull. Judge of our surprise when we arrived there to find quite a brisk trade going on; in fact, it was about as lively a place as we had met with.
