Wiite crowded for space again this ?Nk, and bar* bean compelled to leave out some communications wbieb we would like to bave bean able to get in. We Lope to bave more room next week, aa we bave ordered larger paper and if the order gets in io time our next issue will be a six column instead of a five col uuiu sheet. We appreciate the kind* ly leeliug aud liberal support of our patrons and are going to meet you half way and give you a bigger paper with . more news at the same old figure. ' Ba t>u uk to read our speoial offer < for October. All back^duea en Sub- ] scription can be paid duriog the month I ..t' OninUr at thia rrn nf nioatv cents ? ? ? ? # - I uo tbe dollar. Wo do not make tbie ] viler us a matter of charity, but aa a : m atter of business. In enlarging our j paper and getting new material, we are ' put to additional expense, and wo wovld ! ...ther pay tan oenta on tho dollar and got tbe money now than to wait until .Horember or Deoeiabor and have to 1 M.ud around for it. Call and aee us and rate tbo discount. Some of our criminal laws?or rather , tad execution of thetn?are so badly i "ruu down at the heel" that it would a. most be an injustice to commence to execute them rigidly now. Chief a- 1 uioug tiieso is tbo law aga uet carrying , uoucealod weapous. Tbo law i? good. It is against tue puplie good and foeura crime to allow ull wbo will to carry * 1 1> . L Uaaaiy weapons. a>uw it ou ueeu ueglootad jo long that the offence baa beeu accquisced ia at> it were, aud to commence a rigid enforcement now would be almost like deooyiog meu iato crime just to punish them. The beat waj we aee out of the difficulty is to rub out aud Sake a new start. Lets hate a law that will forbid the carrying of deadly weapons, suoh as pistols, daggers, etc, either ounoealed or uooopoesled; or 1st those who will oarry the weapons pay a tax for the privelig* and bare their namee recorded in the offioe of the clerk of the court I * (t is muoh to be feared that our peoI pie generally are forgetting the dignity and eupiemuoy of the law. As a rule we are a law abiding people, but ocrtain instances of lawlessness lays us open to lue charge that we are lawabiding ftom policy and not from principle. Many who would not steal do not lieu11 ?te to carry pistols and daggara and i >-it one ia just as muoh a violation of > (he law as the other, in spite of the uiala prohibita and mala in te, that the i.? wyera talk about, oae of which is said to bo wroog, oo 1 j bocauso it is contrary ?.o the statute, and the other a wrong in itself. A ad again there are those who would not steal and perhaps would not carry a concealed weapon except un week days, who would not hesitate to term an unlawful trust if they could see their way to make a few dollars thereby. It is a fact that there has come to be suoh a thing in the last few yoars as dignified lawlessness. The law is broken coolly and deliberately, the person confidently beliureing that he will not be arrested, or that if be is arrested he will he acquitted. This state of affairs needs eorrsctiog. If our laws are not regarded at home it twill not be long before our name will not bo regarded ahrcad. We brliero in merey but it a Utile less mercy were show to criminal* and a little more justice and mercy to the balance of the people who arc "the state," there wonld be fewer criminals at the bar to ask for m eroy. fi Cure For Headache. i As a ramedy for all far*a af Headache Bilrotrio Itinera h is proved Ca ba 'ha vary boat.
