We obserye the name of V.

The next name is our most excellent friend Featherly, who poisons dogs for a living, and who threatened to kill our dog while in that city.

O. Blake has returned to Kirwin to stay. He has lormed a partnership with Col. May in the land and law-practice. The new firm is a strong one and will do an immense business.

Another lesson is taught by Mr. Blake's return, and that is, that Kirwin is a poor place to move from. It is just the thing to move to Kirwin, but bad practice to go away. W. H.

McBride, our brother, came down from Kirwin Sunday p. remaining with us till Monday morning, when he left to attend court in Osborne City.

Bracken resigned to the Board of County Commissioners his office as Superintendent ot Public Instruction of Phillips county. Mr. Bracken has been an efficient officer, but like a conscientious man, he considers his first duly to his calling as a minister, hence his resignation, as a new law required all his time in the school work. The Board exercised good judgment in the selection of Mr. C.

A lodge of Knights of Pythias was organized in town, last eek. Last Saturday morning at about two o'clock, the building belonging to Joseph Cox, of Kirwin, and occupied by M.

We suppose he thought to frighten somebody, but strange to tell, we don't scire worth a cent. It is not worth the time to enter upon a lengthy discussion with such a contemptible creature as this person seems to be. But his statements are so miserably erroneous and his insinuations such fabrications, that we felt we must call attention briefly to his article.

His slurs and insults which he heaps upon one of our leading citizens is commendable in the lowest villain only. The article giving the "dirt-slingers" such as they deserve wasn't written by the Marvin correspondent, neither a citizen of Marvin. Perhaps "Anti-Pompous" will find before he gets through that this same "worthy citizen' has friends, and those who don't shoot in the dark, but "true The trouble is, the 'angelics," or "dirt-slingers," (we think the latter coat will fit tiie best, as the former would pinch most awfully) are so badly beaten that they don't know which way to turn or what to do ith themselves. They are quarreling and back-biting among themselves half the time and the other half they are making up and slinging dirt at some one else. This "Anti -Pompous" person in the shape pf a man makes' other statements, but as we write we become so thoroughly disgusted with his contemptible lies we leave them for want of proper words in the English vo cabulary to express our contempt.
