W. II. White pasture in Parker township, one day last week, and plugged up a well bucket which is used to regulate the wind mill which pumps water for several hundred head of cattle. The consequence was it stopped the mill and cut off all supply ot water. For two days, during which time the sun and hot winds were playing sad havoc with nearly everything, these cattle were compelled to do without water.

Owing to the absence of the editor the Republican was unable lo attend the alliance picnic at Hamilton's grove Wednes day last, and therefore cannot give as extended a report as we would like. Those who attended from this place report an immense gathering and a pleasant time. The different alliances throughout the county marched to the grounds in a body and by noon it was estimated thut fully 2.000 people were present. Several large oxen bad been roasted for the occasion and everybody enjoyed an old time barbecue dinner that will long be remembered. After dinner A.
