The County Normal commenced at Independence last Monday, With an attendance of about one hundred. It bids fair to be the most successful one ever held in the county.

When you see energy, grit and a will, backed up by a determination in a young man.

you can bank on him every time, for they are the qualifications necosjary to climb the golden stairs of success. The township board are getting up plans and speculations, and will, in a short time, advertise for sealed bids for putting an iron span in the place of the old wooden one across Elk iiver, west of town. This is a good move, as the old trap is really dangerous. The owners' of property adjoining highways must cut all cuckle burs and the plaintiirs petition against you filed, on or before the 11th. day of August John Castillo has announced himself as a candidate for re-election to the office of commissioner from this district.

John has made a very gord comu is-sloner, and may succeed in getting a re-nomination at the hands of the Republicans of this district, but the next county commissioner will be nominated by the Democratlo Not only that, but he will carry Loulsburg township by a good majority. Mark our prediction. One Sunday recently an advertisement appeared in a newspaper offering employment at a salary of from ten dollars to twelve dollars a week to a young man for office work and collecting. Three hundred and twenty-four answers to it were received. This fact, while it reflects credit on the journal which printed the advertisement, suggestive of distressit need of employment In light occupations; and, perhaps, emphasizes this more than that.

A sad and fatal accident occured at the residence of Marion Holston, near Metz, on last Saturday morning. Mrs. Holston was reparlng breakfast, and their little boy, Lloyd, only five years old, was playing about the kitchen. As she lifted the boiling pot of coffee from the stose to the table it slipped, and the boiling hot fluid drenched the little one, who was clinging to her garments in childish play. The boy was terribly scalded, and he suffered intensely for about three hours, when he became unconscious and lingered until evening, when he was relieved by death.

The mother is almost distracted over the sad accident. The remains were interred in the cemetery at this place Sunday afternoon. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS. Elk City, July 8th, 1887. Council met in adjourned session.
