Barter, 'Entered at the Pleasanton Post-office as second class mail matter. A Fearless, Outspoken, Republican News Paper, that dares to tell The Truth. fiTNo cliques or sleek politicians; we to be the judge, shall grind their axes on our stone. We are perfectly willing for any one, and al? persons, to tell us how we should conduct The Border Sentinel, and we will give them respectful attention, and, thereafter, do as we see proper. Old Dictation died on the eve of our installation, and hes dead yet, to a certainty, so far as we are concerned.

Dont borrow, or steal, your neighbors Border Sentinel. Have a clear conscience, and subscribe for ones for yourself, James Humphrey, will replace B. H. Tracy, the speaker advertised to address the people at the Opera House, to-night. Mr.

Humphrey is a good talker, and well versed on the political issues of the day. Go and hear him. the entire vegetable n9t less than five feet I in length. It has had two seasons growth. I Mr.

Miller is one of out worthy Republi- can candidates and this vegetable is an I indicator that the people in Potosi town- Lawrence Miller, who is one of our very best farmers, and who resides east of Pleasanton, brought in to his friend, Dick Taylor, the Grocer, on Friday of this week, the most wonderful curiosity in the vegetable line that we have ever heard "of or known Kansas soil to produce. It is a Beet, and shows no signs of being a dead-beat, either. The main body or trunk of this vegetable freak, we would judge, will weigh not less than four pounds from which a vine-like runner 0" root projects, 2-fet teach way, making ship, from all points of the compas will give him their warmest support and their votes. Dick Taylor says that it is the only original octopus now on exhibition, and it, like all other things that are wonderful to behold, is but a mere sample of what Linn county soil is capable of producing. This vegetable is worthy a place in a curio, where it would be carefully preserved.

Mrs. Sarah J. Decker-Main, aged sixty years, wife of Leonard Main, died at her home on south Main street, Pleasanton, on Sunday morning, at 8 o'clock, Oct. 5, 1902, after an illness of one month. Mrs.

Main was a sister to our late la- mented townsman, Stephen Decker, who I several years ago, preceded her to the tomb. Her acquaintance speak of her as being a noble lady and mother. Four children and a husband mourn their loss of a fond parent and wife. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. C.

R. Rice, at the M. E. uhurch. Her remains were interred in the city cemetery.

We extend condolence to the bereaved relatives. Our old friend, Enoch Estep, has been in our town and vicinity, for the past three weeks, looking after business matters. No better gentleman ever left Linn county, than Uncle Enoch Estep, and in times gone by was very prominent in political and business circles. He Is a gentleman of strict honor and integrity. He haa a host of friends all over Linn county, who welcomes his visits to our eounty and his old home, with much pleasure Mrs, Stevenson, of Oronogo, former wife of our deceased comrade, James Miller, after a visit with her mother, Mrs, Mays, and sister and brother, and their families, Mrs.
