THE STANDARD. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1879.

Extraordinary Offer.

Dwirifl* to place a copy of Tn Standard into the (undo of every family is Jasper county, the pvLGsher lias tedded to make the following extraordinary offer: from note until tie frat as January , 1880, Thr Standard m® ie so*/ to any address in Ike county for the small turn of twenty site cents. Now let the friends of republicanism in old Jasper go to work sod help ns to secure a large list of subscribers. This is certainly a liberal offer, and every person in the county who is not already a subscriber should avail themselves of this opportunity to secure (Be best local newspaper published in the county four mouths for a mere trifle. The price places the paper within the reach of all.

We regret to say that a force of circumstances combined to prevent our attending the railroad celebration at Delphi oo the 4th' inst.. but we learn the affair was one of considerable magnitude, in point of numbers, as well as the manner in which it was conducted. Twelve carloads were in attendance from this place alone, and every point along the line sent delegations. All are unanimous in tlirir praise of the citizens of Delphi for th* courteous manner in which they treated their visitors and the pains taken to orovide for their comfort and enjoyment on this important occasion. The people of Delphi are noted for thsir liberality,, an 1 Devcr attempt to do anything by the halves. Everything they undertake is conducted on the broad gauge principle, and so it was on this occasion. Next week we will copy some of the press reporrafof the barbecue so that those of our readers who were not fortunate enough to be there may be able to learn something of the magnitude of the affair.

For the benefit of every man who de-sirr-a to be a blue law unto himself, an exchange has taken the pains to compile the following -code: Any young man courting a maid without the consent of her parents shall be punished by slow de;.tb—living with a mother-in-law crosser than the letter X. No one shall sail on the Sabbath day, unless he Owns a private yacht, dedicated to the “Rose of New England!” Any poor man found drunk shall be fined; any rich man diseoyered in a state of inebriety shall ’be sent home in a hack. The workingman's Sabbath shall be. more oppressive than the days of toil; the rich man's Sabbath shall be a first-class champagne party: No woman shall kiss—we’ll take that back; woman shall do just as she’s a mind to.

That infamous rebel sheet, the Okok>na Southern States, speaking of the recent withdrawal (murder) of Dixon in Yazoocounty, Miss.,says: “When Dixon began to mass his * dusky • hordes, the wealth, the culture, the worth, the bone and sinew of the country rose in the royal strength and majesty of their Caucasian blood and commanded him to withdraw from the contest. He withdrew, and Yazoo county was saved from a long, bloody, infernal epoch of crime.” The country knows how he withdrew, and it is left for the people to decide whether or not the plan inaugurated by the Mis sissippi bull dozers shall succeed. The following view is taken of the San Francisco aßair by the Nashville (Teon.}fßanner: “While we think that DeYoung acted unfairly in the manner of his attack, we will say that if he coaid have had any excuse for such action Kalloch gave it in traducing bis mother in the manner in which he did. A mother’s fame is so dear that death is generally considered the proper penalty of any such traduction, but the death should not be inflicted without giving him a fair chance. That is English manhood, while the course pursued looked more like Spanish assassination. The returns from' the election held in California on Wednesday are too meagre to form a correct idea of tbe result, but the indications are that the repnblicanw have carried the state and elected three of the four congressmen. Kalloch, the workingmen's candidate for mayor of Pmn Francisco is probably elected, but nt*liu)g definite is learned The yellow fever epidemic continues to prostrate the eitisens of Memphis at the rate of C* entj-five per day. An average of eight to ten deaths- are 4lso daily re ported. Governor Marks has issued a proclamation to the people of Tennessee asking aid for the stricken «ity. The next state election to occur this •easoo will be that of Maine, which will be held next Monday. The result is awaited with considerable anxiety. California leads off for the republicans. Now la Maine and Ohio follow suit.

OVER THE RIVER.

With Whittling, and Shoutings The ity Lot* Utked hr, Tkc Marrow Cnmyc into tkc • City. [From Delphi Jeorwai.] June 28th, 1865, in the city of Indianapolis n handful of enterprising men met and organised the Indianapolis, Del phi and Chicago Railway Company. While it ia true that other men and other places desired and earnestly sought the bedding of the proposed road yet it can not be denied that its staunchest, meet determined and untiring friends were in this city. Since the organisation of the original company fourteen years have quietly passed, and with their flight our people have raftered defeat after defeat in their favorite scheme of placing our beautiful tittle*eky in closer and direct communication with our capital and irith the great eity of Chicago While that hope is not yet realised yet they do #ita&m tangible evidences of the final realization of their-aims. Last Thursday afternoon the first train ran into the corporate limits of the city. The Wabash bridge was so nearly completed as to salely bear the train, and so the track was quietly laid to a point about one hundred feet this side of the canal and a number of our citizens were invited to ride on the first train over the bridge and into the city. At 6 o'clock p. m. Col A eoman, the indefatigable manager and builder of the road, announced tp his invited friends that they were ready for the trip. Two cars were speedily filled and Superintendent Millikan, who was, for the occasion, stationed at the throttle of the engine, gave the lever a gentle pull and the train, with its anxioua load of human freight moved slowly out upon* the bridge which stands fifty feet above the river bed. A 1 moat with bated breath the people stood quietly watching until the middle of the river was reached, when a feeling of security displaced the dread and fear of accident, and then a shoot went up that will linger in memory for many years with those who were aboard the train. The bridge kas safely! passed and in a few minutes the train l was standing inside the city limits of! Delphi. The bridge is of the Howe I truss pattern, and is almost a marvel of strength and grace, built by Messrs. Freeman & Co.', of Toledo. No less substantial and good looking are the trestle approaches designed by Will. Garis, chief engineer, and built under the supervision of George Matkley, the efficient superintendent of bridges. Among the seventy-five or more who had the courage to join in the trial trip we noticed Mayor - Walker, Councilmen Knight, Lath rope, Graham, Fisher. Jackson and Haugh; Mrs. Knight, Mrs, Cox, Misses £lta and Stella- Dimmick; Messrs. Dr. Richardson, James and Charley Kilgore, L. B. Sims, Judge Gould, James P. Dugan, Vine Holt, Isaac Jackson, A. M. Eldridge, A. B. Crampton, of the Times, J. W. Griffith, Isaac Griffith and Dr. ADgel.

At eleven o’clock and thirty minutes, Monday, the track was laid to a crossing of the Wabash railway, and the interesting event announced by a prolonged snort from the whistle of the Alf McCoy. And thus the question as to whether the road will ever reach Delphi is finally settled. Ii is here, and we believe it has come to stay.

Monday afternoon Geo. Guiliford, Chaa. Groe, Isaac Jackson, Col. Yeoman, C. M. Knight and C. Angel, Jr., went over to Rensselaer to receive the fatted calf tendered by Messrs. McCoy, Thompson, A. Parkison and Wm. Parkison for the celebration to-morrow. They returned with their charge yesterday at five o’clock p. m., and were met at the train by a large crowd of our people. The calf was certainly a fine specimen. He was unloaded at ths foot of Franklin street, trimmed with * flowers and evergreens and led through the principal streets, after which he was led in front of Wollover’s gallery and a photograph taken of him. He seemed too fine an animal to kill, but- then the day must be celebrated and the dinner committee is shert of meat.

COLIC IN STOCK.

A correspondent of the Massachusetts. Ploughman gives the following cure for oolio in horses, which is convenientat all times sad easily applied. He says he has never known it to fail: Spread a te*copful or more of fine salt on-the back of the animal over the kidneys and loins,-and keep it'saturated with warm water fbr 20 or 30 minutes or longer if necessary. If ths attack Is severe drench with-salt water. I have a vmlaabl* ball, weighing L. 900 or 2,000, whieb had a severe attack of eotwn year ago last summer. I applied salt to his back as above, and it' being difficult to drench, we pas a wooden bit into his mouth, keeping it open about two - inches, aad spread salt on his tongue, which 1 together with tbe salt on hit back, relieved him as once, and within a very short time equilibrium appeared fully restored. I hare for several'year* past suocessftilly applied this treatment te other animals in my herd

REMINGTON POT-POURRI.

gone on a pleasant trip to the Northwest, to Another profuse on Monday which the dry spell had mads extremely acceptable. Water was getting to be a scarce article. Since Jimmy Dunn was here it I noticed several editors in attendance at kins of the Fowler Era, Maddock at the Fowler Democrat, Kitt of the Goodland Herald, and Jouvenat of the Crows Point Star. The bodies of John H. Knight and his two small children were taken from our cemetery this week and removed to Kendall county, Illinois, at the request of Mrs. Knight. The bodies had been buried over two years. Six or eight roughs got on a rampage at the fair ground on the second night of the fair and made it exceedingly lively and unpleasaat for policeman Rouech, and succeeded in getting away without being arrested. Take it all in all thin last fair was noted for the good behavior of these in attendance, and for the very little drunkenness displayed. The fair ia over and gone, leaving a feeling of general satisfaction with the management and the success of the exhibition. As usual the main interest to a large majority of the people was in the races, of which there were a goodly number and closely contested. The constitutional quantity of squealing was indulged in by drivers, hackmen and hucksters, who seem to think a fair ought to be run for their particular benefit. Of course, those who failed to take premiums, as a rule have very little respect for thd judgment of the awarding committees. But it is acknowledged by all that this has been the best fair ever held in Remington. The balloon ascensions were

extraordinarily good. One thing was lacking, the presence of a good “Coronet" Band The want was partially supplied by a band organ in one of the side shows. A good shower of rain at the beginning of the week would have added materially to the comfort and enjoyment of all. The dust was simply unbearable, except in the grove, and even there it was very annoying. Without the shade constant attendance would have been impossible.

I was accosted on the street Sunday by a school boy who said: “Mr. Gates, I want to ask you some questions.” 1 bade him proceed, which he did thusly : “What kind of an affliction is called a 'heriditary' complaint”? “Wbat kind of a vehicle is an 'areal' ship”? “What rank amomg teachers does the ‘ principle ' of a school - hold’ ? Supposing these to be conundrums 1 replied, “Give it up; ask me something easy.” He gave it up. too, and upon enquiry I found everybody so lamentably ignorant as to be unable to shed any light upon these queries. As editors are supposed to know everything I appeal to The Standard for information. Sorry I am so obtuse. Gates. We have searched the vocabulary of the English language through and through; have hunted down the pages of a fifteenvolume cyclopedia; have read Dr. Chase’s receipt book, Mark Twain’s ‘‘lnnocence Abroad’' and “Roughing It,” and are still floundering in the dark, like the school boy, for a solution of the mysterious queries -above propounded. As a last resort we have taken the pains to write to Nasby for light on the matter, and should he fail to furnish any we shall be compelled to give up in despair.— [Ed.

FROM GOODLAND.

Goodlasd, Ikd., Sept. 4, 1879. Editor Standard: —Having a few leisure moments I thought I could not better employ the time than by holding a one-sided conversation with Ths Standard. Since visiting Rensselaer last wa have put in two days at the Remington fair (of course we are partial to all the institutions of Jasper county). We visited the fair on Wednesday and Friday, and our judgment, whether good or bad, pronounces it a decided Buccess in every particular. The show of live stock of all kinds being in advance of what is usually seen at ordinary county exhibitions of this character. The ladies’ department was well represented by their handiwork, there being on exhibition in Fh>raf Hall seme of the finest specimens of fancy needle work, etc., we have ever seen at county fairs. The display in the floral department 'Was, to say the least, splendid. The management of the exhition was first- ■ class, conducted by first-class men, hence the stfccess of the enterprise this year. I was informed that the secretary sold 1,800 tickets on the last day (Friday), and that each day of the exhibition was proportionately good. We have been having a splendid rain in this locality, which has a tendenoy to give the people as well as the corn and meadows a healthy, bright and smiling appearance, i Grain is not commanding as good a price jußt now as it did some days ago. Wheat brings 85 cents per bushel, flax sl, corn 28 oents, And oats 19 cents. We think the price will be better soon, at least we hope so, as our sympathies are now as they always have been tn fttvor of the producing, class of people. Col. R. P. DeHart, Lafayette’s favorite orator, delivered leotares to crowded houses in the M. E Church at this place on last Saturday night and on ths subjeot of temperance. His lectures-are well received by our people.

Dr. M. L. Humston, of Morocco, known to many of the citizens of Rensselaer, was married to Miss JfcMurry, of this place, last week. Our geod'people all 'join in congratulating the happj couple. P&ooases. Smytokins was out late on a lark with “the boys." Next morning when when he complained or a headache, hla wife remarked that “the night tare didn't seem to agree with him.”—Salem Sunbeam. The poet says: “How sweet the music of the Sabbath bell,” and yet there are men who prefer to listen to it a mile or so'awajf in- the vicinity of * berry patch. Nb
