There has been a Salt war here, this week among the dealers, and lively times were experienced for a time. Jim Forbes began the jamboree by circulating some dodgers saying that be was selling salt for (1,25 per barrel.

Thirty Years Teat. Iratino with Iron is beyond a doubt tbe most successful remedy extnnt for Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Sour Stomach and Constipation, we baye ever sold, otherwise we would not recommend it. Its effects in Scrofula, Syphilis, and all diseases hereditary are truly wonderful. In Debility or Weakness of the Blood and Digestive Organs, it is unparelleled in history of medicine, as it seems to be possessed of Magical Powers in subduing disease. Without any exception, we have never sold any preparation that gives such universal satisfaction as Walkers Iratine with Iron.

Unlike all other preparations, it has the prescription on every bottle' therefore we do not hesitate to say it is the best and most reliable medicine now in nse. For sale at R. Arnold's. eow. Casnmptin Cared.

ARNOLD, AGENT. la ty I We bear rumors that a large hotel is to be built at once at some point near tbe village. How true these rumors may be, we do hot koow.

We do know however that a number of Chicago, gentlemen, comprising nearly all our regular summer residents and a few others bad a meeting this week to tee wbot could be dooe. Nearly all of them were highly In favor of going to work at once, and tome of them will probably proceed to do so before long. That hotel of tbe kind, kept in first class style, with egood manager, would pay, no one can doubt for moment. Col. Jenkins finds do trouble to fill bis bouse end all tbe bouses having room to spare.

the neighborhood and it is owing to tbe fact tbst be knows bow to take care of guests." Kayes House bas been filled to overflowing all tbe summer fur tbe same reason, and so bas every first class boarding boats in town. A. good hotel in the right location, of easy access to tbe village, and managed by such hotel men as Col. Jenkins, K. Cowles or Mr, Kinsley pf Chicago, would be full si! fbe summer, no matter what tbe rates might be.

We have as good hotels here as can be found In say place of four times its size iu tbs country bat what is needed, is gill edged concern for gilt edged psopie. Elsewhere will be fonud a yery plain statement of facts in regard to tbe ten dele gates allotted to Geneva at the last Assembly District Convention, which has drawn out considerable opposition from several quarters. It certaiuly seems very reasonable that Geneve should have ten or more delegates. On any basis, whatever, she is entitled, to that number, aud we caDnot believe that the people of this Assembly District will desire to deprive her of such rights. The difficulty arises' from the fact that the people of other towns find it bard to believe tliAt Geneva has gnined so much In npuluiion during the past sx or seven years, as (be figures indicate.

We believe, however, that the census of 1830 will show that a large underestimate is made on tbe figures OR Which ten delegates are claimed. A towhsliip like Linn will nut gain, but ratber'lose In population in the future. The rich farmeru are continually buying up the small farms offered for sale aud the population Is therefore decreasing each year. We fliluk that this will be found to be the case there as well as In the town of Geneva, while the villages have all received additions, mure or less. All those interested lu this matter will do well to read GenevaDl article as it Is based on facts and gives tbe figures.

Wr ar reminded by the return of familiar faces, that the time bas arrived for the reopening of our schools. Miss Sarah Warner, wbo has been absent for about six weeks, attending tbs Normal Language School for teachers, at Grinnell College, Iowa, Is with ns again and looking much better than when she went away. Mr. Wm. Jay Warner makes bis appearance occasionally, and predict an increased attendance at the Seminary for the coming jear.

Mrs. Adams, Prof. Pearson, and Miss Hattie Warner, who, we believe, hays been sketching in Minnesota and Wisconsin, will arrive in a few days and will be ready Cot work. Considerable new and valuable apparatu has been purchased for the Seminary so that the opportunities for successful study at this Institution are fitter than eyer before. Among other things are mentioned a flue Air Pump, with Receiver and large Roll Glass," Fountain in Vacua, Instrument for illustrating Mariotts Law, Milk Hydrometer, Prism, Tub Green Bay dcoeate claims to have discovered tbe real Egyptaln lotus growing in the water of Lake Winnebago, near Oshkosh.

flower is of a pale buff color, and larger and of floer texture than the ordinary water lily. The discovery is notable lu that it bas generally been supposed that the plant did not exist in this country. The same flower, which was formerly supposed to be the ordinary water lily, flourishes also in the Calumet river, in South Chicago. It the genuine lotus, the tame that grows In the River Nile. Chicago Journal.

"Yes! and you ran get as many of the real Egyptian lotus aa you like, at Grasa Lake, neat McHenry, Ills. There are acres and acres of these beautiful flowers there at about This Time of the year. There is no mistake about their being the genu ine article either. Down near Loug island Sound, at Seldene Cove they can also be found, but not in great profusion. The blossoms sell for (5 apiece there.

IT. Eames, of Spring Prairie, has done about as well anyone we know of.

Eight acres of wheat averaged 29 bushels to the acre, 8 of barley brought 46 bushels per acre, 0 of oats tallied up an even 60 bushels per acre. Tnis is threshers measure, the grain being left In a condition just ready for market. Who was It that said crops were never poorer around here than this year? Tub tweuty-fifth annual exhibition of the State Agricultural Society will beheld at Madison, coAmencing September 9th. The society annouuoea aa one uf the attractive features of Ibis years gathering that President R. B.

Hayes and the distinguished party accompanying him will be in attendance during oueday of the exihlbition. Our thanks are extended for tickets and Other courtesies from the managers. Dr-W. C. Grat, of the Interior Chicago, camped at Colliea tor a few days, two weeks ago, aud on his return wrote a I very fine article to his paper concerning I his trip and Geneva.

He camped nine days at a cost of (7, Including railroad fare both ways. He claims that the world cannot produce a prettier, healthier or better place to stay at than the shores of Geueva Lake. Dale Armstrong gave an entertainment at the Baptist church, Saturday even tag, to a fair audience, ail of whom declared it Immense. Ilia recitations are very good, indeed, far better than the majority of elucutlooiata and readers can accomplish, but in his ventriloquism he brings down the house. We hope that he may come here again at some future time.

The Northern Illinois and Southern Wis-1 cousin Fair will he held at Beloit, next week. This fair takes yery high rank among institutions of the kind, and ia attended by a large number of people. Especially iu stock exhibits does this fair surpass its neighbors because it is held ta section of country where throughbred cattle are made a specialty. The gutters have all been graveled on the south side of Main street and nearly ail on the North making that street a very handsome one. The balance should be fixed at once before the fall rains coine.

The sidewalks in front of Mr. John nankin's stores and in front of Mr. Nether-cuts building have also been repaired and raised this week. If this yellow feyer business continues, there is a prospect that the season will not close here until October. Tbe hotels and boardiug houses are as full as they can be at present.

There is no danger of the fever spreading as far North as this and as I soon as frost comes there will be no danger of any one bringing tbe fever north of St. Louis. We forgot to mention last week that J.E. Burton Is the happy pa of a nine pound boy. Ed.

acted blamed mean about it. He skipped off to New Yoik Without leaving any cigars for us. It was pretty thin, old boy, but we congratulate yon now, and you can send a box or two of-Seidcuburgs around as soon as you get borne. Mr. B.

Basslkr, of Delavan announces himself as aa independent candidate for sheriff. Mr. B. stands well ta the community In which he lives, and if by any skull-duggery on the part of tbe Convention at Elkhorn, next Thursday, a lip top, A. No, 1, Republican Is not nominated, we hope B.

will be elected; otherwise not. Business has been yery good in Geneva during the summer on account of tbe influx of summer visitors. The abundant harvest ot all kinds, that this section of the country has enjoyed will tend to make trade very good here all the fall. The merchant that advertises is the one that aill get the most of it too. On chicken day.

Geo. Dnrkee, 'Will Harris and John McGye started out to bring in a few grouse. They don't claim to be very crack shots but they brought in 31 big fat prairie chickens aa a result of their days hunt. They want to know what the score of the mighty men of Elk-horn was, for thst day. We had the pleasure of a visit this week routine of our little Geneva rose-bods.

She certainly does credit to our place, and the sight of her rosy face would tempt many a parent to bring his faded little one here, that they might gain such round, dimpled, blooming cheeks as this one little visitor has. The Rev. Doctor F. W. A.
