NEWSPAPER NOTES, W. J. Ward has retired from the editorial control of the Worthington Times. The Evansville Tribune is now one or the most attractive dailies coming to this ofllce. The Rock port Sentinel Is a bright foong newspaper, and gives promise, of reaching a grand manhood. The Indianapolis Saturday Herald Is the moat interestingly edited weekly paper on our exchange table. The Oakland City Enterprise ia one of the cleanest, brightest little provincial paper in- Jndiaea, and Hs edl tor deserves a most generous support from the citizens of that town. The National Banner, the new Greenback paper published at Worthitigton, each week gives evidence that its editor is folly abreast of the times, and has a fne conception of what makes a bright and breezy paper. Greene County Events, a new paper just started at Galrisville, Arkansas, by, our old friend Frank M. Daulton, reached onr table this week. It presen's such a bright and cherry appearance (bat wo predict for k a glorious future;

Wo selected at tho proper time to notice the new drees in whfcfr the Bloomfield Democrat has recently arrayed itself, but “it is better late than never” for ns to say that this enterprising paper lacks but few steps of reaching the summit of complete sue* cess, Petersburg Has a»m»ny pretty women and a more attractive looking set of men them any other town in tie State, fo as much as we have no railroad as yet, we must blow about something. The editor of the DnoeitAT, however, let it be it understood lays no claim to being good-looking; inherent modesty will only permit him to say his merit lies in another direction. COURT BOUSE CC LUNGS. All the county officers except the Auditor report-business dull. The boys in the Auditor’s office are potting in full time on the tax duplicate. The conrt-honse has worn a decidedly dull appearance for the last week or more. County Treasurer Chappell reports the receipts On taxes for the past month very light, but anticipates a rush soon. County Auditor Bilderback has been very busy for the past few days making out reports for the State Bureau of Statistics. Mark Powers ie never satisfied unless he. is busy from morning until night. Mark is one of the best and most painstaking and accomodating Recorders Pike county ever had. Since oor last issue County Recorder Powers has entered fifteen, instruments for record. They wore, nine warranty deeds, two chattel mortgages, two real estate mortgages, one release, and one school fund mortR«ge- _ ~ Mr. Goodlct Morgan is having his wheat threshed. His crop ia estimated at S«fi00 bushels. No farmer should, burn his wheat straw this year. If yoqcannot use it yourself let your poor neighbor have it. No man w-ill; lose anything by being, charitable. Winslow will be-a lively town for (the next three Wednesdays. Gn the 9:h fee Democratic Mass Convention, will meet there;- one week later, on the 17th, the Nationals hold their con veniion, and the following: week,.on; the 26th, the Republicans will: hold possession of the town. There’s no use talking, Winslow will always he ftn important place

We know that most of our readore will bo surprised at the improved appearance of'the loeal page of the Democrat this week. The reason is plain and can be easily understood. The editor, proprietor and the fore bill left last Monday for Indianapolis to attend the Democratic State Convention and the “devil” of the of bte has been compelled to furnish bis own copy;__ - Vincennes papers report that the famous Captain Little, not unknown in this community, although almost forgotton, is lurking in that vicinity with hi r uniform on, and his drum major’s hat in hand, waiting to take part in1 the soldiers’ reunion at that place and make a few "mashes.” Como over here when you gel through at Vin connea, Captain; we would like to see you at our fair, ga the supply of donkeys is scarce._It is now ouly four weeks until our fair begins, and as yet not a single poster announcing this important event has been put up, nor a line of advertising done. Somebody is very careless concerning one of the most essential things necessary to the success of the coming exhibition, and the result will make itself manifhst in the falling offof the receipts unless some thing.is done, and that at once. Let os view, for a moment at least, the seductive color of the fair-poster. While at Evansville last week- 9am Coonrod*.after purchasing a stock of poods, telephoned. home the following: “Go to the livery stable-and tell them to send me two wagons and team* to. Hazleton.” When .Sana got to Hazleton be was much surprised to find no teams there. After- arriving at homo he. wanted to know why the teams had not been aeat, and Con. Adams showed him the message that he bad received, which read ae follows : “Go to the livery stable and tall them to send me two horse blanket*1” 8am. says the telephone ia a wonderful invention._ Temperance Basket Meeting. There will be a grand. Temperance Meeting held at Algiers City on the 12th and 13th of August. Eminent speakers- , have been engaged, among Whom is C. S> Dobbins, of Shoals. Mr Dobbins will also speak on the night of the 11th at the Gray church. Let every one bring their baskets well filled and enjoy a grand treat for temperance.
