RAMBLER'S ROUNDS.

Tliis week I went in the direction of Maxwell ami on to Eden, intending to investigate the Democratic stronghold ot Brown township. Many of our old friends were glad to see me, and came smiling up with the "Daddy" dollar.

John Howard and family were busy in the orchard gathering up the fallen apples. They loaded some fine specimens into my buggy, along with a hatfull of the fruit (pawpaws), your humble servant as well as the opossum loves so well. Mr. Howard has a line farm, well-improved, and his orchard contains as many apples as I have seen at any one place in all my ramblings.

I called upon Washington Osborne, to have him read our paper a year or so, but he was away. Watch for me at some future time, Mr. Osborne,

His neighbor. Joseph Dorman, will take the paper right along now. Mr. D. was so unfortunate as to run the tine of a pitch-fork into his foot several weeks ago, and has not walked any since except by the aid of crutches.

The Wilson Bros., are as nice men as one would wish to meet. Noah ill read our paper in the future and Robert will borrow it of him.

Hiram Chambers will get liis news each week out ol' the Rkpuuucan.

Coming to R. Y. Barnard's,—of course I could not pass them without stopping— audit getting near night. I took his advice and put the pony in the stable and stayed with them over night. Mr. B. related to me his experience during the war, going into the South after the bodj of his dead son William, who died in the army. His experience would make quite good reading. Mr. Barnard is one of our old friends and his narration of the e\ents of olden times were very interesting to me. He started with nothing and now has plenty of land, and some to sell. He has a nice farm in the edge of Hamilton county, that it would pay anyone in search of a nice home to go and examine. You can surely trade with him.

THE I'KOl'LE ALONG

next the Madison county line are progressive and are building them many nice new dwellings. I peeped into the one being buib". for .Tames McCarty, by our patron, J. W. Jackson, of Eden. It is commodious and comfortable, and reflects much credit oil the builder and owner, also the one close by being built for Jacob Kimberley, this is a dandy and is being honestly built, for our friend T. Walker is boss of the job.

A. C. Hiday was busy talking to some neighbor boys, Robert aud Jesse Walker, sons of onr old friend Miles. 1 hese are two of the nicest young men up there,and I think one of them at least, believes something similar to this regarding Mr. J-iiday's daughter Fannie, and from observation, I think he is correct.

at .lacksou's Corner, is a good one, and many of the people for a long distance each way have banished the wood-pile and are enjoying Natures best fuel, natural gas. The Ri:i'l"»u

has many earnest

supporters among the Jackson's up here, and also among many other good people. The nice new house of J. T. Rodgers, looked inviting, and something made me feel that I would receive a kind welcome there, and it getting near nightfall, I drove in, and it took but a few minutes to assure me that I had made no mistake. Mr. Rodgers has a fine farm mostly bottom ground, that will produce any crop. He has an abundance of truit, a nice wife and family of fine sons and daughters, and can very appropriately go about his work singimr his old favorite hymn. Mrs. Rodgers, with womanly kindness, wished to remember our editor, and consequently consigned to my care for him, one of the finest pears of the Flemish variety, I have ever seen. But the strong as well as the weak cannot always withstand temptation. and I am no exception to the rule.

make this story short—that pear never reached the editor. AT MIL [.Mill COUXKK. l)i". my was looking through his stables of fine horses. The Dr. has many of as well-bred horses as the county affords. Highland King is one of the finest draft hor-es I have seen the Dr. paid one thousand big dollars for him. Long Branch is a Hambletonian, and Red Jacket's best son lie has some colts that are beauties. Rot haline, the inbred Blue Bull is a true type of his illustrious ancestor. The Dr. has some youngsters of the best breeds the country affords. The Dr. is a kind, obliging gentleman and a personage with whom one likes to talk.

FROM HERE TO AVAlilUXOTOX,

the farmers were still busy sowing wheat, and seeding will not likely all be done by the time this appeal's.

The. new mill at Warrington is lapidly Hearing completion aud will be as nicely equipped as any mill in the county. Messrs. Newsom & Beck have rented the same. These gentlemen come well recommended and I have no doubt they will soon be able to build up a large business. I got acquainted with W. E. Chandler, the mill-wright. He is very sociable and informed me that he and our patron, John Graves, the popular liveryman from Wilkinson, fought the Porter campaign together. He says he is personally acquainted with Capt. W. G. Wasson, one of the pro

N, ,.X

prietors of our Nail Works: that he is a gentleman in every particular, and should they move here he and his nice family Avill be quite an acquisition to Greenfield.

I had many hearty hand-shakes, pleasant remarks and well-wishes from numerous friends at Warrington, but space forbids mention at this time.

Clay Martindale is one of the best young men in Brown township. He is a christian gentleman, and he and his family are the best trained singers I have had the pleasure of hearing. Mr. Martindale's services as a teacher, arc in constant demand. I took dinnerwitli them, and it is not necessary for me to state that I will do so again when opportunity affords.

THROUGH THIS COUNTRY TO WILKINSON, the corn I don't think is so good as in other parts of the county.

Wm. Gibbs, Lon Presnel and many other of our patrons live on this road. As I drove up to friend Stephen McCray's, he came out quoting the scripture. "Behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with me." I stayed all night with Mr. McCray, and attended the meeting at Nameless Creek Church with his sou and daughter. Walter and Katie, and listened to a line sermon by Elder Coon. Mr. McCray gave me an account of his western trip, from which lie and his wife had just returned, will reproduce it briefly for the benefit :f those who may wish to read it. He went to Kansas on a visit to his children aud nephew's. He first went to Erie, the county seat of Neosho county. It is as large as Greenfield, and a better town. The country around is rocky and rough, and at least one-third of the ground is fair, it is a poor county, thickly settled. They have fruit in unknown qantities. There is not 80 acres in the county that does'nt have waste land, more or less. They stayed all night with Oscar Thomas. Saw Dr. Edwards, but did not get to speak to him. AI a young Mr. Alexander there, son I think he said of M. G., of Greeufield.

Got a rig and drove to Ed. Thomas'. He is farming on Wolf creek in Neosho county. He has as nice a farm as there is iu eastern Kansas. He had 200 bushels of peaches, and (500bushels of apples: he is fattening his hogs on apples. His hog lot, like many others in the county, is made of stone, and lloored with stone. Peaches are not worth over 10 cents per bushel. Mr. Thomas is making money: but is not satisfied there. He is wide awake and means business.

They went from there to Allen county 20 miles northeast, to J. T. MlcCray's. Mr. McCray is a J. P. is doing well, has lots of fruit, and has the finest herd of Polled Angus cattle he has ever seen. He lives near Salvensburg, a town about as large as Charlottsville. 1-Ie has a valley farm of 160 acres. The people are live men, the county is thickly settled with Hoosiers, which accounts for the hustle. He went from Mr. McCrays northeast to sec a vacant tract of land of 2,600 acres, which has but one stone house ou it. with a colored man living in it. This land is poor and only fit for grazing purposes, excepting along the river from here south to the nation, the country is not good. It is full of poor people who live from hand to mouth, with the mouth about a month ahead, they live on fruit, sweet potatoes and chicken, this is good living but does not last. Pork is a rare thing, as the herd law forbids their running at large, and they do not breed well when kept penned.

He drove to Erie and Chanute in a buggy. Oscar Thomas, living in the former place, is a carpenter by trade, don't know whether he followed the trade here, his wife keeps boarders. They were glad to see them and spent a very pleasant time with them and talked over old times in Hancock county. They took the train southwest to Fredonia iu Wilson county, this is a railroad town, full of business. They changed cars here for New Albany, northwest 8 or 10 miles situated on Eall river, tljis is an old town and the poorest in Kansas. Fall river is twice as large as White River in Indiana, has high banks, and the country spreading out on each side is as fine as any iu the world for farming purposes but it overflows. Fall River empties into the Virdigris, a large river ranging from 10 to 30 feet deep. There is plenty of timber on these rivers a kind called Pecon is most numerous, it resembles walnut, grows tall, splits easy, and the farms are fenced with it. In these bottoms grow some of the largest cotton wood trees they ever saw. Saw some Oak aud Hickory. The overflowing causes much sickness, and there was some one sick at every house at which they stopped. The wheat in these bottoms made from 40 tool) bushels per acre. It had all been ricked, aud had been thrashed down to where the water had stood, and the balance left, ranging from 4 to 6 feet iu height. The smell of rotting grain pervaded the whole Fall river and Verdigris valleys, and wheat was lodged in the trees 40 feet high. On the 23d of July they had the largest flood they have experienced in many years, the valley being submerged 12 miles wide. The corn on the up lands will not made over 15 bushel per acre.

They sow a great deal of cane, sow it broadcast. Mow it, stack it and let the stock feed on it in winter. They raise quantities of castor-beans, millet and oats. Thev stack their millet and oats, likf they do their cane. Prairie hay sells

GREENFIELD,

at i^l.oO per ton, corn 15 cents, wheat 40 and 50 cents, and is as good as ever grew, where not hurt by the water.

There is but one bridge in Wilson county, and it spans the Neosho river. Mr. McCray thinks this would be a good location for the Hancock County Commissioners, as the bayous need bridging badly. The sloughs are forty feet deep in Wilsou county. It is impossible to get the timber out. It is fine land but needs bridges to get to it. The water is bad, it is alkali, soft and of bitter taste. And as there is not a saloon iu Kansas, Mr. McCray was in a bad way for something to wet his whistle.

The fish in Fall river are of the finest flavor ever eaten, there are cat fish and a Mr. Johnson caught one that weighed 80 lbs they hung it on a tree and skinned it with pinchers. The fish are caught with trot lines then gigged from boats while ou the line.

Coffey county is well timbered, their barns are made of rock, aud poor. f? Mr. Nixon has a nice office. His wife is a fine woman and made many inquiries concerning Greenfield friends. She is a splendid woman and well calculated to treat any one in style and with courtesy.

Mr. McCray asked Mr. Thomas when he left him what to tell the folks here, and he answered that he did not want to see Hancock again.

He says you can pick out the homes of the Hoosiers, Quakers and Buckeyes, as they are progressive and fixed to live.

They heve plenty to eat at the hotels at 50 cents. Mr. McCray got his for 25 cents, as he managed to stand iu with the cooks, and had two women and one negro to wait on him at one place.

A great portion of Alien county is owned by the railroad, and squatters are constantly dispossed of the same, not without difficulty however, as many of them kick on being interrupted and some of theiu get laid out. There is no gravel on any of the roads, the trains run 20 miles per hour. tjs

In crossing Missouri they saw the finest farms and residences on the whole route. Mr. McCray's crippled brothers died in Kansas, and he Avas at his grave, it is dug out of rock. The widow lives with her son-in-law, Hiram Hall. They have 500 acres of land and raised 5,000 bushels of wheat this year.

A son, H. McCray. is trustee, and is a candidate for sheriff of Wilson county on the Republican ticket. One a physican is growing rich dishing out quinine to ag\"ic patients along the valley.

Mr. McCray says Hancock county is good enough for liim, his farm is not for sale. He lias lived here 54 years, aud all he asks is enough to pay his taxas, and the privilege of voting the Republican ticket, if he wants to. And now to

WILKINSON,

all of our friends are still on the turf aud putting in a word for the old Reliable whenever they can.

Many men and things could be mentioned, but enough for this time and some to spare.

Silver Wedding.

On Sunday September 22, Aquilla McCord and wife, of McCordsville, celebrated the 25 anniversary of their wedding. There were eighty people present aud a very delightful time was had by all. At one table there were 40 guests and at another 37. Mr. McCord is one of the prosperous merchants of his town, and has a happy family consisting of himself and wife, two sons and a daughter, now the wife of Mr. Thomas Pentecost also a leading merchant of McCordsville. Mrs. McCord is a daughter of Enoch Hanna of Oakland, who was present at the celebration. There were quite a number of valuable gifts, presented by their numerous friends, and well wishes.—We hope Mr. and Mrs. McCord will live to celebrate their "Golden Wedding".

Are We to Jlave a New Laundry. Every week large quantities of linen are sent to Indianapolis and elsewhere to be laundried. It could be done just as well here, employment given to labor and all the money kepi, here. Many towns in Indiana the size of Greenfield have good laundry establishments that are making good money for their owuers. Let some enterprising citizens investigate this matter. There is money iu it as it would be encouraged by our citizens,and the citizens of the other towns in the county.

Meeting at the Williams Tabernacle. On Sunday, September 29th, there will be a basket meeting in the beautiful grove of Wesley Williams, north-west of Cleaveland. Preaching at 10 o'clock a. m. by Rev. Streight of the M. E. Church. All

LOCAL LACONICS.

The grand jury adjourned Wednesday after returning 28 indictments. Correct styles and correct prices at Coleman & Sons.

W. Scott sold 200 tickets for Indianapolis yesterday morning. Oysters, finest brand at Bohm's restaurant. Served in every style. 38t3.

Lots of new styles of dress goods are to be found at the Long Branch Store. Call and examine goods and prices, Coleman & Son, merchant tailors.

Miss Ada Smith has begun the study of medicine with Dr. King, whose office is now located in the new Gant block.

The "Red School House" Shoe for boys and girls is warranted. It is on sale only at the Long Branch Store.

The oyster season open at Bohm's restaurant. Tickle your palate with a fry or a stew. 38t3.

John Bourne has bought the interest of J. B. Huston in the Pennsylvania street livery stable, and is again sole proprietor.

Econamy and strength are peculiar to Hood's Sarsaparilla, the only medicine of which 100 Doses One Dollar is true.

The gas well which came in last Saturday at James A. New's farm, is another splendid well. It and the Warrum well are of about the same capacity.

The reason why that young man makes such a fine appearance is because he bought his nobby suit of Coleman & Sou, the tailors at Greenfield.

W. W. Rigdon has purchased a new three-quarter job buggv of Smith & Jeffries, the popular buggy and livery men. He can now go about his fruit tree business with much dignity and style.

J. Ward Walker & Co., had a big rush at their special sale Wednesday. The big bargains they are offering draws the people.

With the houses already erected and those under contract, the number of new houses in Greenfield for 1889 will reach nearly one hundred.

Born—To Mr. and Mrs. George H. Cooper last Saturday evening, a daughter. This was especially pleasing, as the children in the Cooper family have always been boys heretofore.

Greenfield is greatly in need of new houses. There area number of families who will move here as soon as houses can secured. Let our monied men build s£uf& houses, it i\vouid pay'we^f

We always keep up with the procession —just now we are leading it with our remarkably low prices for dry goous and footwear at the Long Branch Store.

It is the intention, we understand, that new lock boxes will be placed in the postoffice, and many other modern improvements made. Perhaps the old outfit can be sold to Ivnightstown or some other town of their size.

Field & Son presented the

Republican

with a gallon of their fine sorghum molasses, the first of the week. We say that the quality can not be excelled. Field & Son should double the capacity of their mills, as they cannot meet the great demand for their molasses.

Elder Love H. Jamison, "the sweet singer" will hold services at Nameless Creek Church to-morrow night. Services Sunday morning aud evening. The elder is a talented minister as well as a fine singer. All are cordially invited.

Pretty cool these mornings, but there is great satisfaction in knowing that theve is such a place in our midst to buy flannels and other dry goods as the old reliable Long Branch Store.

The funeral of Mrs. It. R. Miller who died near Lafayette this summer, will be preached at the Western Grove, Friend's Church in Blue River township ou Sunday October Gth at 10.30 a. m.

The M. M. B. Club, met at the home of Miss Liilie Fries on Friday last. An excellent dinner was served, and all report having a good time. They adjourned at 3 o'clock to meet again in three weeks.

Rumor has it that several of our young country friends will be married soon. That's all right. It should be said that they can buy blankets, and boots and shoes, etc., much cheaper at the Long Branch Store than any place else.

Mr. Geo.M. Lowe, v."ho has turned his attention to the manufacture of sorghum molasses this year, furnished us with a sample of his drip this week. It was very fair and of excellent quality. His increasing business compelled him to purchase a steam mill.

Mr. Jeff Patterson has commenced the erection of a new house on Pratt street. It is also his intention to build two others at a near date. It will be christened "Patterson's row." Those men in the northeast part are seeing to it and putting forth every effort to advance their own interests, and at the same time build up and make our town what it should be.

On Wednesday, Herbert, the two year old son of Dr. C. K. Bruner, fell from a second story window and struck the ground first with his head and shoulder. The breath was knocked from the little fellow and at first it was thought that he was seriously hurt but no bones were broken and he now appears to have received no serious injury.
