J( Corn husking is pretty well over with in Jasper county, and no better fall for harvesting the corn crop was ever seen. We believe there 3lias been but one day—last Friday —that the weather has been too bad to keep huskers out of the field. The yield the county over will probably average about 35 bushels per acre, which is about as good as we ever have in this county.

The Appellate court this week held that a remonstrance under the Nicholson law against granting a license for a saloon in a township which contians a city, but located outside the city limits, must be signed by a majority of nil the legal voters in the township, including those who live within the city. A remonstrance signed only by a majority of those living in the township outside the city is insufficient. Where the notice of application for such license correctly describes the exact location of the proposed saloon and the building and room to l»e occupied, the fact that such building has not yet been erected is not sul* ficient ground for refusing license.
