AVb understand tlint llio County Hoard of Commissioners approved bonds of township tfiieers elect, last Monday. Sks. Howkard E. TowNiintnoR, who nominated by the President, lias bean coi.firined hy tlx Sonato an Commissioner of Indian Affairs, We are very innch inclined to think that Tom lliighai is exactly like the inula thai kicked because hu hud not sense enough to do anything elsu. Tint Kepubliean Convention of the First Congressional District of Maine, to choose delegates to the Chicago Convention, was held at Portland, March 2d, 1880.

James G. 13i.ai.nk is becoming more popular every dav, and it is now thought thcro is no doubt whatever but what ho will he nominated at the Chicago Convention, Jokf.ph NicKnusox, well known in KanHas ur havi-ig been connected with the Atchison, Toptkft and Santa Fe railroad for many years, died tit lirew-eler, on tho 28th of February. Par.nkm., the great Irish Agitator, will speak in Atchisou Mir eh 13th. llo is now raising money for the destitute people of Ireland as well as raising it to defuet the English laud lords. EJ.

Tim Ingalls reception at Atchison last Tuesday is said to have been a grand ailViir. Senator Ingalls address was able and eloquent. Maroh 2d, 1880, may truly bo called a "white day in the history of Kansas. Tun Leavenworth Time copied an nrticlo from tho Citizen and credits it to tho Irving Gazette. We guess brother Anthony just made a liltlo mistake, that is nil.

lie, ol course, knows that tho Gazcttt breathed its last over yunr-agn. Tin; will be a teacher's examination held in Irving week from tomorrow, March Kith, an! one on Maroh 20ih at MaiysTillo. These will probably bo the only examinations held this spring and teachcrn wishing certifioatrs should bear it in mind. Til ic Manhattan issued two extra supplements last week; one tho same size of thu luttei-jiriw, and tho other a folio, giving description of Kilcy county, and Bummnry of its business firms. It must havu an enterprising publisher by tho looks of the paper.

a Kiioi If fiiBt class jeweler would come to Irving ho would do well. Tncro is tl great deal of work in that lino to bu dono here. There is hardly day passes but what the quoslion is nsked: Is there a jeweler shop in town Dollars and dollars go to neighboring towns that might just as well remain here. If there is a jeweler who haN not a pood location wa would advise lit iu to come to Irving, as wo behove ho would havo a good trade, i NULL IIOO.H1NU. As we looked up and down Main street Wednesday it almost reminded us of a New York or Philadelphia Hcune.

Iloth sides of the street wore lined with taunts and single horses tiod as closely as possible almost tho entire length of three, blocks, and in the middlo of tho stieot, for about two hours, the vuhicles wore so thick that many times they could not pass with out waiting for each other. It is saUl by old residents that thero wero more people in town than ever before seen fit any one time. We almost thi.nght that Marysville, Wat-eivillo and liluo ttapijs had come down on a visit. A FULL AND STOCK OK and Manhattan railroad by Marysville instead of Hanover. The iVeies man look particular pains to only copy such parts of our article as suited himself bent.

He says lie thought it w.ts tho duly of a local paper to advocate the interests of its own town first. That just what we have bean doing, inilated Tom, and any one whoso cranium is not as thick accordingly as their brains are obtuse cot: Id tell by reading tho Citizkn. One of the managers of that road told us that if tho liurlingamo nnd Manhattan railroad went by Marys-villa it would not go through Irving, but leave the lllue near IJig Timber, and go nearly north tip a small stream, following it to its source, thence ncross a level divide, nnd strike the Bain between Watervillu and Blue Uapids, thus leaving Irving about sven miles to the Kasi, Tho At'ics has tried to lead around every paper that has started in this county and has finally succeeded in gelting a ring in the noso of ono 1 them, but we fear ho is now trying to catch the wrong bruin by the ear. It is true that the distance saved in going by Hanover is little, if any, and perhaps (he distance might be a lew miles more, but that does not any difference to us if the company see fit to go that way; just so Irving gets tho railroad is nil we want. We do not believe, ns do most of our county papers, that the publisher of the JVewa is a fool, but think ho has ns much instinct as tho average hyena.

Co.Nor.r.ss has passed a joint resolu tion, instructing tho Secretary of thr Navy to designate a government vessel for tho transportation of conlri butious of food and other necessaries for the suffering pcple of Irclrnd The President approved of the resolution, and in a few days it will be spoeding across tho ocean to perform a noble mission. Ilh.H II 111' JOHN TIIO.HSOM, Kr, It is with sorrow and pain that we inform readers of the death of John Thomson, who diid at Windsor, Canada, Wednesday, Feb. 1 lib, 1SS0. I II was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, duna Olh, and came to Canada and served in tho ilsl Kegiincnt of tlm Jiriliidi army for li years. Went to Xew York in and worked at his craft until 1 870, when he came tu Irving.

Soon after his arrival at this place ho started tho "Irving Gazette" and was editor of it for five years, dining which time ho served in the capacity of Post master nr.d Township Clerk. Mr. Thomson was a man who had a good education, and conducted tho "Gazette" with much ability, lie leaves a large and honored fanillj to grieve his donth. jirnuniiiK A l.ooit Nalu (' ii JTIai-hliic, YoHlrnbiy A.
