REMINGTON ITEMS.

Our people, espaeiaily tlie farmers, havt received an ovarabundance e" rain within the past few days, -which will in all probability render the outs and hay harvest serious and difficultßlotters. The prospects for both cro Lavs up to the preseat time besn . xcellbut. Th# corn crop lias improved rapidly the pas* two or three weeks, sc t •„ /e er.p»et nearly an average crop. iiir. Peter Ochs, cue of our most enterprising business men, died of erysipelas lust Thursday and was biuied in the Remington Cemetery on Saturday. Old lady Dluz .k, firing about four miles northwest of Remington disd suddenly of heart disease on Friday night last and was buried in t e Catholic Cemetery, near Remington, Saturday. Mr. Smith, who lived in the |suherbs of town, while v.,' in his garden last Fr‘day was tru aby lightning and instantly killed. — His remains weir, taken :o Union City, this State, his former home, for interment.

At Odessa, south of this place about nine miHs, a Mr. Jackson’s house was struck by lightning, aud Mr. J. received such injuries as to render it nec&osary for 2>r. Patton to remove two ai his tees. Otherwise 1 guess he is all right. Our old friend, Henry Marsh, living on the road between here and Goodland, ind his barn struck by lightning last Wednesday and burned to the ground, together with eon ten la. Loss yrofeably SI,OOO. Insured for SSOO. Times here hard, very h ant, and money scarce, the result oi the high protect;v? tariff system under th© administration of the ‘*gr n 1son of his grandfather.” YvV think it hurts thoo who support d him as badly as us who did not.

FROM WHEATFIELD.

Business dull. The corn erop is on an averags very poor. The green midge is doing much damage to oats in this locality Wheat and rye, which is new being harvested, is good. Edward Ingram, of Talparaiso, is visiting relatives and friends at this place. Benjamin Thorn'c;’, w! o has been sojourning in Minirrsota the past month or two, is expected home seen. Oliver Clark is down with bilious fever. James Austin is recovering from an attack of the same disease. Mrs. Minnie unci Jennie McCabe have returned from Kansas City, bringing with them their sister, Miss Tilde Cason, who is yery low with consumption. Anon.

Go to the great slaughter sale of Dry Goods, Boots, Shoes, Millinery, Tinware, Notions, Ac., that must be closed out in ait da vs to make room for a Fall Stock of Goods. Chicago Bargain House, Makeever’s room, next door to the Bank. — 1 -■■ ■ ■— • —ii Onion parties are laffhionable nowadays Six girls stand in a row. One bites a small piece out of an onion and a yonng man pays ten eents for a guess as to whieh one it was. If he guesses right he gets to kiss the other five; but if he doesn’t he is only allowed to kiss the one with the onion-scented-breath.

Every one should avail them* selves of the rare opportunity for buying anything you want at the closing out .ale of the Chicago Bargain House, next to Makeever’s Bunk. - - An exchange says lemon „ socials are becoming popular. The young folks assemble and the girls squeeze the lemons, while the boys squeeze the girls. They say it is splendid fun.

READ AND PONDER.

The Democracy of Knox county, IHr o!~, has issued ar address hiarmg on the promises vs. the fiuits of the republican achuinit (ration from which we erdraet the following : They have under the guise of assisting the laborer, pass -d iaiqJtus laws that have e;>, oled the building of huge corporations, which, forming together, defy the the it»ws of healthy trade, and are fast becoming so formidable that they defy the feeble attempt of of legislation The infamous and iniquitous tariff robbery, m-ds for the express benefit of the few, is upheld by the power of corruption that has disgraced our iato election in New York and Indiana. That while tariff keeps out foreign blankets, salt, wool, iron, wood a-d lumber, it ius not prevented huge English trusts to come to our shores and control our roads, own our glass manufactories, iron foui> dries, and form the salt trust, brewery trust and steel trust that are robbing the people. The recent rebellion of the farmers against the binding twine trust, In raising the price of bindingtwine from 7 to 22 cents is just; it is a small item when compared with the other trusts formed for robbing the people. We quote Chicago markets: One year ago— Now are— Corn quoted at $ .60 $ .324 Oats “ .40 .22| Rye “ .50 .30 Wheat “ [email protected]@b0 Pork " 17.00 11.374 Hogs “ [email protected] 4.50 Cattle, “ [email protected] 4-20 Thus while wa pay one-ffhird more for sugar, three times as much for our binding twine, just as much for shoes and clothes, the produce of the farm has fallen off at least 20 per cent, in price, and no steps are taken to meet the de pression. The entire west voted to sustain the platform of the republican party, Kansas giving 80,000 majority last November for the republican electors. . Since January 1 last, Kausas fanners to the number of 2,500 abandoned their farms to mortgages, held by eastern capitalists. The comptroller or banks in New York has isrued a circular stating that sayings banks she nld no longer invest in western land mortgages, as the security is not good. Massachusetts’ legislature has prohibited further western loans. More thnu

this. While western farmfgs have blindly gone to the poll# tb sustain high t,i ’xff for eastern capitalists, the election is hardly over before Pennsylvania, New York, Maine, Michigan and other states especially cared for by the tariff at the expense of the western consumer, have passed laws prohibiting dressed meats from finding a market within their jurisdiction, which virtually deprives us of any market, Year after year the American farmer is becoming recognized as the especial slave of the other classes. The agricultural fairs are abandoned or become mere race tracks for joGkeys and sharpers. The son leaves the old hornet stead to seek a calling in the city, the name of a farmer becomes associated with the swine herd, while the cartoonist clothes him as a scarecrow.

The promised prosperity to follow Harrison’s election has not materialized. In Galesburg men formerly getting $1 and $1.25, are working for 87f eents a day—some less. In lowa men are working on public works at 24 hours a wees at 12| cents an hoar. In Pittsburgh Mr. Carnegie, who electrified the world with his bold stand for the defeat of Cleyeland and the maintenanc< of trusts met the demand of his men for an advance on their wages by reducing them 20 per cent. That around Harrisbnrk Pa, 1,000 strong, willing men and their families are starving, the mills being shut while the owners are in Europe feasting with royal-

iy, the announcement being made by ship owners that they eannot carry'fsll seeking foreign resorts from An erica. That while the western farmer is to-day trudging between firs rows or corn fighting weeds, Chaanaey M. Depew, John Sherman, Morton, Cameron, Sawyer, Qu-r. I>. P. Jones and a thousand ethers who made the political arena ring with praises of the heaulies of protection and love for America, have gone t* Europe to spend the cash needed to build up a home market. We don’t hear of .armers going. From the buying oi their ticket until they p y the lackey to curry off their foreign boaglit goods from the : t ;mer on their return, not a eent gees intis American poekets. If the; had to wait until American steamers took them they coaid not go. Wo have not a ship to tarry one o* us to Europe. Thirty year ago we had 5,275.000 tons of bottom slips. Americans are being driven from the fields of labor, ;nd the eastern manufactories are filkd with imported paupers from Belgium, Italy, Hungary, etc , who work for 50 to 75 cents a day, and live on $4 or $5 a month and send the balahee to native countries. We have come to stay, if business will justify us, and if low prices is an object to you, as we are bound to undersell all competitors. Chicago Bargain House.

Personal Official Appointments.

The pHblic will never be made to believe that the appointment of a relnriv* is made on the ground of merii bioite, uninfluenced by famOv views; nor eau they ever see wit h approbation offices, the disposal of which they entrust to thftii Presidents for public purposes, divided out as family property. —Thomas Jefferson. Jings! Mr. Jeffeison is more severe on our Ben than was Bishop Potter. Closing out millinery and all kinds of men’s straw hats, at just one-half price. Chicago Bargain House.

The pretext upon which the coal mine owners ar a holding thousands of miners in a starving condition, savs the Globe, is that they must secure a lower scale of wages in order to make mining remunerative. It is a manifestly absurd and false pretense. Consumers are forced to pay any price for coal the mine owners may unite in de« manding. There eau be no dispute about that The difference of 10 or 20 cents a ton for mining —a differeaoe which to the hardworking miner marks the line ben tween decent subsistence and partial starvation—need not take a cent from the mine owner. Mi* ers’ wages are added to the price of seal &Bd paid by the consumers.

The people of the country prefer cheap eoal, and will buy at the 1< west That is entirely natural. But they do not expect or aak that miners and their families shall go hungry in order that the eoal buyer may save $lO en the priee of a hundred tong of fuel Mine owners and cral dealers find no difficulty in effecting combinations to raise or maintain prices to or at the point that insures large profits. They will have to .find a better reason than any necessity in the matter of remnnerat on for the inhumanity that dictated the lockout, if they expect the public to regard *<hat proceeding as anything else than barbarous tyranny.
