A newspaper man is expected to be everywhere, see everything ami catch every item afloat, simply because it is his profession. But he can't do it. Ilk friends can help him thoojrh by sending or bringing in such items of interest as mav chance to come under their notice. All manner of legitimate local news go to make up an interesting local newspaper, and will be received with thanks.
The Lowell News appears to favor the idea that the cost of side walks should be borne, not by the owners of lots along which they are built, but by the public for whose use they are required. In doing so it favors simple justice. We have made the greatest effort of our lives to secure fur the coming spring season the most attractive and complete line of Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes etc., which wc propose to sell at the lowest prices. Come and examine our White Goods. We can show you just as fine a line of Laces and Embroidery as you can find in New York, Philadelphia or Chicago, and can sell them just as cheap as any house can buy them, we having, purchased before the rise in the price of White Goods.

Constable Jones held ao execution against a fanner, and when he called for settlement the agriculturist took him out into a big pasture and pointed ont a wild steer as the particular piece of property to be levied upon. Jones chased the steer around for awhile, and then sat down, and taking out his book, began to write. "What are you doiog there?' asked the j. ranker. ' Charging - mileage," replied the constable, without look up. "Do I have it all to pay?" gasped the rancher. "You bet." "Then take this tame heifer here. I can't stand any such game as that." Have yon seen our spring Dress Goods? The variety is greater and effect mare beautiful than the previous year. Some lovely Checks, in various soft shades of Cbartrejiuse, Modes, Olive, and Bronze. They are of an impressive character and genteel enough to please the most fastidious. McCalla a Co.
By order of the Monroe county Republican Central Committee, the Republicans of Van Buren tp. met in convention at their usual place of voting, March 18, 1882, at 1 p. m., for the purpose of nominating a Republican township ticket. On motion Joseph Eunger was chosen Chairman, and James Dodd Secretary. They then proceeded to make a ticket, which resulted in the following: Trustee, Jonas R. May; Road Snp't., Melvia Saaburn ; Assessor, Thomas Eller; Justice of the Peace, Lewis Jones; Constables (dog killer), Dock Thresher and Frcehtnd G. Koons. There were qnite . number of voters out, the highest number of votes cast at any one thne being 77 lor Road Sopt, the votrs on all candidates ranged from 54 to 77. The very best of feeling prevailed, and it is
due to nay that the Republicans of
Van JtSnrea tp. are working together harmoniously and with the intention of electing their entire ticket as well as to show their colors at the Fall election. Score one for old Van Buren. Joseph Duxger, Jajies Dodd, Chairman. Secretary. Big stock of Ladies's Fine Shoes at McCalla & CVs. Just received this week.

when the wind changes are immediately shipped to their respective homos. By having everything thus beautifully systematized, the people are put to very little iucouvenience. The Cincinnati Real Estate and Detective Association is making agents in every hamlet throughout Illinois and Missouri. Each
pays $10. Already thousands of
dollars have been harvested, and the "agents" are patiently waiting the fulfillment of certain promises made to them when they paid their money. They may continue to wait.

It makes no difference bowline a head of hair a man may have when he settles in Nebraska, the wind will in a few weeks cause it to evaporate, and his head will look as bare and desolate as a Thauksgiving turkey after dinner. No man id permitted to vote unless he is bald-headed, and can pass a satisfactory examination by the Microscopic Inspection Committee, who will, if no indication of hair is discovered, mark "o. K." on the top of his cranium with charcoal, and his ballot will then be received. It is provided in article 442 of the State constitution that each child, at the age of ons year, must have an accurate geographical chart drawn on the top of its head, showing county, town, range mod section in which it lives, all of which is printed in a pamphlet and filed in the office of each town clerk in the State.

New York Sun. Fees 1 Custom Inspectors. Pro. Jordan Inriied to Come Eat and Mate Good hti Chargas. Surveyor Graham has invited Prof. David L. Jordan, of the Indiana University at Uloomington, to come to New York and follow
op the charges of extortion against j New York customs officers said to 1 have been mado by him in a recent j address before a civil service reform . meeting at Indianapolis. Prof.
Jordan is reported to have said that .in September last a party of thirty excursionist, of which he was one, on returning from Europe paid money to a New York Custom House inspector who had offered to pr.ss the baggage cf the whole party with a light or nominal inspection if he found Pro:. Jordan "a good fellow who knew how to appreciate a favor." This inspector
and other inspectors, by menus of
threats of detention and other annoyances, extorted from the party $5 before beginning the inspection, and by much badgering and threats extorted from a lady in the party $10, one of the inspectors saying that they singled her out because "she looked as if she was rich." Gen. Graham offers to confront Prof. Jordan with all the inspectors who were on the pier at tho lime,
and to pay the costs of his trip.
lhe statement ot Prof. .Ionian was introduced at an investigation now being made by Special Treasuay Agents, Brackett and Ayres of the Custom House weighing contract system. The investigation, it is charged, is sought to be diverted against the Surveyor,
