Township organization is the “Old man of the sea” on the body politic of Bates and al] counties similarly afflicted. Some relief will have to come or we perish in irretrievable bankruptcy. There are several ways in which this matter could be han- died. Bates and all other counties in Congressman-elect, Tarsney, of the 5th Congressional district, has been getting in his work on Postmaster Shelly. Mr. Shelly took it into his head to fight Mr. Tarsney and as a consequence has lost his fat posi- tion, as an inspector was ordered from Washington to take charge of the office the first of the week. ee An association of farmers in IIli- nois made estimates recently as to the eost of growing certain crops. They find that it costs $13 per acre to raise oats; $12.66 to raise an » of wheat, and $11.85 io rai acre of corn. They put the reut of land at $5 per acre for oats, and $4.- 50 per acre for wheat and corn.

Benjamin Shelton, a brother of Dr. W. E. Shelton, of this city, met with a severe accident in Deepwater about three weeks ago. Mr. Shel- ton had been suffering with diarrhea fora few days and upon retiring to bed in the second story cf his board- ing house, took a large dose of land- anum, anda few hours later was found on the pavement below with a broken thigh bone and several bruises on his body. Mr. Shelton says he has no recollection of what occurred from the time he went to bed untilhe found himself on the ground below calling for help. The supposition of his brother is that he was made delirious by the laudanum, and in his:delirium crawled out of the window and fell with results as detailed above.
