the hose raco in this city on Field Day
was won by the company from the capital but claimed by the Claro boys. This
is the first The Cotjbiexi has learned that
there was dissatisfaction regarding the
time kept in the race, and even those
from Harrison that participated did not
manifest any ill feeling over the result.
The time-keepers agreed as to the, tiuio
made, and we hardly bolieve that the
Cleaver expressed the sentiments of the
Harrison department. If there is ill-feeling the proper way to settle it would be
to ran again. The Claro bhys want no
honors they are not justly intitled to.
, Tho next time a traveling peddler calls

ask him if he will take your butter and
eggs, and other farm produce; ask him if

slaugh, he will bo willing/to donate a few
dollars to help it along. Tell him that
there is a poor widow down the road who
would be very thankful it he would
donate a few provisions; aok—Iiim if lie
will contribute to an enterprise just starting.- If he agrees to do this, then patronize iiirri. Your home merchant does all
