There Is nothing vory surprising In this to auy one who will give It any thought, who is not disposed simply to cavil.

This state of affairs has existed foryeu.s, (two years to my knowledge) and will continue to exist just so long as thu country directly tributary to Lawrenco supplies sufficient wheat to supply our mills, and that tributary to Ottawa does not. Ottawa millers pay more than we do simply because they can't do ol herwlso. They must pay inoro or shut up their mills It is b' tter lor them lo induce farmers to haul wheat lot distances by paying one dollar per bushel therefor, than It Is to py one dollar for the same wheat und in uddition pay freight anil charges amounting to five or six cents a bushel more. Whou the yield of wheat, iu Frunkliucounty Is very large, and In Douglas county very small, the conditions will be eutiruly changed, and Instead of shipping Douglas comity Hour lo Ottawa, as I am now doing, Krankllu county may be supplying Lawrence trode, as it is not di-ing now, Then, and possibly not until then, will wheat bring tlve to ten cents more in Lawrence than in Ottau, and then will the Franklin county producer risj to enquire "Why is this thus?"

Hoar ilia Reporter: A.N EXPLANATION. There lias been a general rumpus Hiid blttor complaint utnoug tho citizens, uud especially the subscribers of this paper, concerning E. G. Ross, who has been trying to force his paper on tho subscribers of the Reporter uot only wlien the Reportei as temporarily stopped, but even now they urn eudeavoiing to make the people most of ttiein our subscriberstake i heir piper. Wit wish lo show the people In hat manner Ross managed to ifet hold of the nanie of our subscribers, thuu pro-umo to call them "subscriber of tho Standard," und send his empty sheet to them and try to collect ten cent at the end of the week from persons who neyer did subscribe for his paper, and do not want it.

When the News came out, (which was an entirely new paper) they also had tho cheek to send their paper to the sutscibeis ot the Reporter. It was soon found impossible to forco this Utile abortion ol a paper on the, people, and it, "consolidated" with the Stand-ird. We ask, "what on firth did he have to "consolidate It may tie thought by some that he had a "list of subscribers," but the Nows never had a list of subscribers, only those which they stole from the R-porter. All we have to say in this connection is, that it looks liko very small business for ss or any one else to engage in, to undertake to steal the ubscribers from a puper and try lo take theiis, whether they will or not. have charge of the county books Nevleon looks as weil us usual.

In Its last Issue tho Cresset says "WoureBtlll waiting for the startling developments promised lu the illllman case, but they come not by these promises.

Loss, over $300. No Insurance. Wo are indebted to Mr. D. G.

Watt for the above Casualties. A cuploot boys were both riding a horse, yesterday, near the lake, when tho horse began cutting up, where jp in the one who was guiding the horse Jerked him, eauslig him to rear up and back, killing one of ihem and badlv Injuring the other Tho of the lad tint was killed was Jacksju. The accident occurcd on the farm of Mr. Osbun Shaunon, PUOBADLY FATALLY SHOT. A pirty consisting of Orson Hatch, his wife, Mr Jimes Stewart and wife, Mr.

Ed and the M'isses Stewart ond the two Stewart toss went to the Marals desCygnes to fish Saturday night, Inking with them a cc niping outfit. About, midnight Mr. Hatch we it to make down a bed under one of the wagons; there was a shot gnu lying under tho wagon which lie undertook lo. remove, taking bold of the muzzlo. The gun was discharged und the loud entered his right knee, shattering the leg badly.

A man was seut, to Ottawa for several doctors, but at nine o'clock lust night reoctlon had not taken place and his case is regarded us hopeless. In any esse the leg would have to bo amputated, but It is hardly probable, so our informant, Mr. Cyrus Beard 6ays, that he will ever bo able to have the amputation performed, and the accident must result in death. The accident baa cast a gloom over the entire neighborhood whe he resides, as he was a good honest mau and enjoyed the confidence of his neighbors. He moyed to Willow Springs township about four years ago, from Winterset, Iowa.

May Flc-Nlo. A May party was held in the grove at Stuart's bridge, Saturday tho 10th hist. A large crowd assembled at an early hour, and the forenoon was spent in the usual pic nic amusements. Dinner came at one o'clock, and the pic-nicers collected In little groups to discuss the contents of their well-filled baskets. After dinner tho programme was announced and all repaired to the speakers' stand, and were highly entertained for about an hour and a half first, by a song from the Vinlaud choir.

We next listened to a short address by Chancellor Marvin, which was very appropriate and elicited much applause. Balloting for tho May Queen being next in order, ballots were distributed, each gentleman casting one vote. Whllo the votes were being counted the choir sang a song entitled, "Work and Rest," which was very good. Miss May Kennedy having received a plural ity of votes, was declared elected. But It being ascertained that the Queen elect was absent from the grounds, it was then decided that Mrs.

Bowman, the organist, who was the next highest on the list, should be the Queen. She was duly presented and crowned by Miss Estella Ayer. After which the choir sang "The Merry Month of May," a lively, appro-priate song. This was followed by a reading by Prof. Lewis J.

Rote. The selection was a poem written by Mr. C. M. Bears, and was artistically rendered.

Next and 1 st on the programme came a sor entitled "The Storm King's Blast." The remainder of the day was spent in playing croquet, A confectionery stand was on tho grounds, which furnished lee cream, lemonade, in abundance. The success of the occasion was mainly due to the wise management of the committee, which consisted of tbe following named persons: Mrs. McCliotock, Miss M. L. Macy, Mr.

A. H. McClintock, and Dr. Leary. G.

We have a good aud psylnir subscription list which is increasing daily, mid If nor country subscribers would pay up promptly we would owe no mau a dollar. No man ho has ever been In our employ bus been cheated out, of his pay, though at tinie we have been hard pushed iib nas almost other husiir ss muu we knuw. We have vcr attempted tu "bull-doze" the business men ol Lawrence" into our support or tried to persuade them to kill soma busineess rivsl for our benefit.

We have never given placo to a single word disrespectini of the Standard or itsceliloruntil within tho last ten days, and ive most sincerely beg pardon of our readers for doing so at all. Our apology must be apparent to ail. When a mad and half crazed, perhaps half starved, hull made an unprovoked attack upon a peaceable Yankee traveler, the Yankee caught the foolish btast by the tail and held his grip till the bull gave it up siood Btock still, and turning his head mode a mute but pileous plea for mercy. "Well, old Mlow," said the Yank, "who begun this un pleasantness, anyhow?" So we say. As lo tbc Standard's circulation, we know little and care less We know it must be very small, or It would be able to pay its printers When Ross states It is tttrce times greater than that of Thb Tribune, be kuows is false, and so does everybody eUe.

ft the business men of Lawrence patronize Thb Tribune it is because they rind it lor their interest to do so, while a number of them have' told us 'that they ere compelled to advertise in the Standard, because they could get uothing else for debts due, As to dence of the bride, by the Rev. Mr. Frank, of The Methodist church, under the present pastor, Is becoming one of the most prominent and beet patronized plitcis in town. Mr. Frank is deserving of suceetB.

As a preacher he Is second to none In Lawrence. The refugees at the old council house are gettini uneasy, and Tery desirous of getting away from here. The crowded condition of things is very unhealthy, and likely to create disease among themselves and the citizens as well.

Pomona Grange. Douglas County Pomona Grange met to day at Miller's Hall. After the transaction of considerable routine business, receiving several new members, an essay upon entomology was read by N. P. Demlng.

Mr. D. exhibited specimens of the larva of the Cottonwood borer, aud described its method A IPablo for the Jabber! ok A Groundhog and a Hedgehog ouce found themselves living in the same hole. For a while both tried lo make the best of their close quarters, but the hedu'o ho grew the fastest and his quills were uncomfortably Sharp for the Groundhog which bcirun to grow dissatisfied, und to complain that the house was too small for both. The Hedgehog took no notice ot the complaint but kept growing larger and and his quills kept growing sharper and longer, until the Grounding which iu some places is called a "Jabbertok" got almost squeezed to death-trying lo keep clear of the quill points.

After a time ho began to hint lo tile Hedgehog that he would be glad to have him leave, bat the Hedgehog pud no heed to the hints what ver. Time passed on and the Groundhog wsss growing leaner and thinner every day, while tho Hedgehog grew latter and stronger. At last the poor Groundhog grew very sick and blamed tho for crowding him, but the Hedgehog said ho didn't use uny more room than he needed. Then thu Groundhog got very angry aud jabbered something about calling In thu neighboring animals the rabbits, moles, gophers, deer, chipmunks, coyotes, badgers, to put the hateful Hedgehog out so that he might have the whole house. But tho Hedgehog only chuckled a little at tho absurdity of the little creature's threats aud rattled his quills slightly for music.

And then the poor foolish little Groundhog got very angry indeed, and tried to pull himself up to four times his real size, and squeaked out that the Hedgehog had got to leave auy how, and he bristled up as big as he could and his hair stood on end, and his teeth chattered with angry spito because the Hedgehog would'nt go away and leave the bole for him. Then finally the Hedghog got up on his hind legs, or "on his ear," and rattled his quills so smartly that the poor imbecile of a Groundhcg almost jumped out of his skin, and the Hedgehog said very coolly and deliberately, but very distinctly in deed, "Mr. Jabbertok, or Woodchuck, or Groundhog, or whatever your name is, I have heard enough of your foolish jabbering and more than enough, This place suits mi very well, and I propose to stay and grow up in this clover patch, and If you don't like my company you can just go and hunt another hole." And so snying tho Hedgehog bristled up all over, and his quills rattled so that they made the poor little Groundhog shiyer like a mouse In au ice chest; and he lapped his little tail and hung down his little head and sneaked away to hunt a new hole in Halifax, or some-wjicro thereabouts. And then all the other animals laughed at the foolish Groundhog for not starting out sooner, and the squirrels chippered and the pigs squealed, aBd tho turkeys gobbled, and the roosters crowed, and a knowing old horse broke out into a big horse laugh, and shook his fat sides and said, "Ha I ha 1 1 ha 1 1 I know'd how 'twould be all the time 1" And so might any animal but an imbecile Jassack that never did have good horse sense anyhow' And tho Hedgehog lu his bole and grew up In the clover patch and said his right name was Tribune, and that be was sorry for the poor little Jabbertok for being such a stupid little dunce es to think he could drive a Hedgehog (From Monday's Dally.)

He has beeu farming wheie he now Is near Bond 0., Wabhingtou Creek, for nineteen years, and has a magnificent farm feuctd almost cniirely with stone wall. lie has cultivated wheat every jo. since 1 859, and has found It a paying crop every year but two. Tho first failure was lu 1800, when there was no r.iln Ho had only about four acres sown on tod that year, and it fulled to head out. The other short crop was In 1874, the year of the grasshopper raid Counting these two ears out he his averasjed more than twenty bushels per acre for the whole time probably twenty-live busliela if the whole truth could be known.

Ho now has sixiy-iive acres in wheat standing full knee high, and in eplendid condl'lon every way Also forty acres lu corn, much of it up high enough for lhe plow His report as to fruit prospects agrees with thst of every farmer we have talked with vcrj few peaches i early apples late apples, a lair show small fruits, pretty good. Mr. Melsker believes In blue crass and tiui otby iilsii in winter rye, sown early for winter pus lire He finds green rye the best aud cheapest winter feed for stock hoirs, also for calves. We were sorry for one thing only iu all that we learned fiom Mr. Metsker, and that was that he und his neiuhbors had found it for their interest to ln ul their wheat, to Ottawa for a market, instead of bringing it to Lawrence.

He slated lo us that only tu day belore Ik) called on us he hud sent a wagop load fifty bushels of wheat to Ottawa, and had got, one dollar a bu-hel for it, while he bad Drought a lord i the same kind from the s.nne Uu to Lawrence, and could only get ninety cents per bushel. Mr. Metsker livis fourteen miles from Lawrence ond 18 miles Irom Ottawa so that it takes a day go to market and return from either place. An avenge load of wheat is fifty bushels, and ten cents on a bushel saved by going to Ottawa makes big pay for four miles extra travel each way. Of course men who market their wheat, in Ottawa will buy their goods there.

So "the business men of Lnwroncu" may perhaps find it for their Interest to demand a "consolidation" of the elevators aud mills, in the interest ol trade. Tens of thousands of bushels of wheat will go to Ottawa that should come to Lawrence, aud the trade lost to Lawrence merch nts will be no small item. We have no idea who la in fault, if anybody is, we only state what we know. Iifadyille. Leadvillb.CoI May 5, 1879.

Dear Tribune I have been a sojourner of this city of wonders for one week, aud I would most glad entertain your readers with the "ins and outs" of this world-wide notable city of the It' cky Range; but with all I causa. It will bo but faintly told. To see it thousands are constantly pouring in Leaving Denver I accepted standing room on the D. P. railroad.

The fare to Web-ster (70 miles), $7.00, allowing you 70 lbs. baggage. Even your bl nketB are welsihed 1 At Webster there is a line of coaches, one of which you step into, provided you have a uood through ticket (which is all important), anil if you can get through the crowd. As f.ir as you can see are freighters, extra hacks, all of which ask the same price for fare to Leadyille all classes of stock from a worn-out horse to a good roadster, and then many have to wait over till another day. Tho distance through the Park, over the rauge and down the canyon to Leadville is 70 miles, and it takes the stage one and one-half days to make it.

The whole distance is lined with teams from either direction. Wagons, horses and mutes lie strewn along the whole route. At my leisure, in sight I counted oue hundred horses and mules whose owners bad no more use The mortality is most entirely among the former. They are. never robbed of their hide or shoes, though the 1 tter may be new.

It is a common occurrence to see goods resting by the way side, a wagon 6tuck fast, or wagon and goods turning a summersault. People, crazy-like, start out with a load of gooes with any team that tNelr limited means can purchase, and people are so anxious to send goods here that they will load up an elephant or wheelbarrow. The ride is tedious any route you may come, though by way of the canyon is pleasanter but longer. Tho accommodations are veiy poor en route. Beds are made upon all the floors beside each other.

Ou top of the range Isaac Is building a house.so that the traveller may not want for hot or cold drinks. Leadville contains about 20,000 people. Her hotels, boarding houses, camps, lodging bousts, and saloons are all full, day and night.
