Clark was homo from Grun derville over Sunday, the smallpox quarantine having been lilted from that place by (he authorities last Saturday. Mr. Clark reports tho one case, Reed Cassat, as getting along well, and (bat he is thoroughly isolated and in charge of a competent nurse. There are no evidences of any further breaking out about the place, and it is believed the disease will exhaust itself with this one case. Every body there has been vaccinated. An effort will be made this week to push the bill through the legislature ap propriating $."i0,0t0 as an emergency fund with which tho State Board of Health can tight smallpox. The disease is spreading in this State, and It is said that during the past year it has caused 800 deaths. In the western part of the State It is particu larly prevalent. Whilo the local author itiesare doing all they can to stamp it out they find they cannot make much headway unless assisted by the State. An evidence or tho thrift of tho farm ers in this section will be noted by a glanca at the congested condition of tho Penns'y yards bore. There are huge piles or hewn railroad ties, bull wheel logs, piling and telegraph poles about and nearly every availabls root or space seems to be occupied by these pro ducts, but more are corning every day. Tho farmers have evidently been improv ing the long winter hours and inciden tally wrapping a few more of the "long greens" around their bank rolls.

Had the Blizsard paused to reflect that the item was published :is a matter of lo cal news, and not necessarily with tho in tention of conferring any free advert'sing on anyone, it might not hove lelt "called upon" to write its criticism. A private letter from Theo. Huddle son, who has been located near Chelsea, Indian Territory, for several months, whero he has charge of a large block of oil territory belonging to eastern capital ists, states that they were having the first blizzard of tho Reason on the 15th inst. Also that "H. C. Kemblo and A. J. Sig worth are with nie now, so it soems more like home and old times. We are work ing ten inon at present. We have 11 wells with a prvduction of 25 barrels per day.

Hopkins. it Every newspaper writer realizes sooner or later that the majority of peo ple, and especially politicians, are like tho bouse cat, says the Warren Mail. You can praise them and help them and rub tho tur the smooth way till doomsday and thero is no kick coming when tho petting is done ireeof charge. But chance to rub the I'ur the wrong way once! Print something they don't like. Then oh, whet a howl! Sharp teeth and ugly claws are shown and etlorts are made to demolish the paper and publisher. But some people are different. They realize that a paper is like a hotel bill or lare. They take what they want and what they like and leave the remaindr r Tor the peo ple wl o are different. Thai's the best way.
