He informed us that Jonathan Fleming, a highly re- spected farmer of his neighborhood, died very suddenly of pneumonia last week.

For this purpose an order was issued from our cireuit court on the 27th inst., citing all parties along the proposed line east of town to be present in the court room at Clinton, on the 16th day of March 1888, to show cause why three disinterested parties should not be appointed by the court to assess the damages sus- tained by reason of the railroad pass- ing over their land.

Truzs:—We carefully read the communication in the Record last week from our brother phy- sician in regard to the county court providing medicines and med- ical attendance for paupers. Now, we think, as he does, that the county court should make provisions for the proper care of poor patients who are not able to employ a doctor or pay for medicines, but the argu- ments he presents to this end are so partisan in their nature, bitter and spiteful in their tone that one would think he had a special spite at the county judges and was taking advantage of a worthy subject to give vent to his corked up spleen. The present court has madea goud, economical record, reducing the ex- penses of the county about one half of what they were the year before under the old court, and the people of Bates county have no fault to find with them and have no disposi- tion to take up any one’s personal grievances. We think if our broth- er would make legitimate arguments and labor in the right direction his efforts would result in much more good. This matter was called to the at- tention of the Bates County Medi- am a member, and favorable action | was taken on it, but whether it was | ever presented to the court in a tan- gible form we ere are not informed, put are satisfied that our honorable ' county court will do what is right ;and proper when the matter is I brought before them.
