from time to timpse. about the benefits of

am induced 10 think, however, from

communication.
In view Of the necessity which since
the war compcls us to ratrench all the
usual expenses Of living, aud TO practice
tie most systematic cd riged economy,
.he nennle.of this State should not only
feel grateful for the oppy atty of edu-
eating their children, but should heartily
endorse that form Of Government which,
in consideration Of the poverty of the
people, AID in the exercise of a liberal
policy, has placed the means Of cduca-

reach ofall.

The Democracy seem to have set
tied upon their policy in the coming
canvass. They are particularly
anxious to secure the next US. Sen
ator, and to do so will require a ma
iority in the Legislature. Vallan-
digham is the candidate of the ex-
tremists, but in order to effect any
thing he and his friends are to stake
back seats" in the convention and al
low the more liberal ones to run the
convention, and place in nomination
General Ewing or General McCook,
whose war record, they are hopeful
may bring them considerable
strength and aid them in securing a
majority in the Legislature. If the
election should result as they desire,
the extremists will then demand the
Senator as their rightful share and
Vallandigham will be presented.
Which is a very nice little pro
gramme. But, will it succeed? Will
the people allow themselves to be SO
misled, as to vote with a party whose
chicanery is intended to defeat the
popular viii, even should they sue
ceed in carrying the electionP We
do not think so. The people are
able to judge in this matter, and will
not run the risk Of having repre-
sentative in the q. S. Senate, whose
record during the war, stands as a
continual reproaeh.

Plan to Detect Swindlers.-It is re-
markable how many there are in the country
who respond favorably to the swindlers who
send out their confidential circulars, offering
counterfeit money for sale. While they
never receive any such persons money, it is
not their faults. They send for it with the
view Of using it, therefore are no better than
eounterfeiters. The Rochester Union says q
plan has been devised to detect and expose
them where they reside. The letters they send
to New York ordering counterfeit money will
not be delivered to the address, but will be
opened and returned to the post Office from
which they are sent. The postmaster will
post the names of the writers under head
printed as follows:

Golden wedding

DELLEFUE w., may otn, 1911.
There occurred in Bellevue, on Tuesday,
May I'd, one Of those rare events called gol-
den weddings, where happy pair celebrate
the ifheth anniversary of their wedding day.
On this occasion, MIR. and Mrs. Alvin Ander-
son, long residents of Bellevue, were the ioy-
GUS couple. To make glad the occasion, and
that others might rejoice with them, invita-
tons were given to the family relatives and
few familiar and sold time friends, )" to come to
the feast. They came with cheerful greetings
for the bridal pair, some with fond reeollec-
tions of the days gone by, and all with high
appreciation of the joyous occasion. All their
children, four in number, with their families,
were present. Two sisters of Mr.. Anderson.
were also present, Mrs. Cone OF Clyde, and
Mrs. Fannie Cooke, Of sandusky,-the latter
being the only one present who attended the
marriage occasion fifty years ago.
Four generations were represented, Mr. 7.
a. Higbee and wife exhibiting the only rep
resentations of the fourth.
When all were present, Rev. E. R. Jewitt,
of Sandusky, was called upon to ''soy some
thing" He commenced by saying that it was
not often we were permitted to see before us
four generations, as on this occasion; that for
him it was the first time and also the first
time to attend golden wedding. To the par
ties he said, "God has given you happy life
and enabled you to exhibit the characteristics
Of true life in the married state It is fitting
that we Congratulate you; on this fftieth
anniversary of your wedding day. 1t is also
appropriate that you renew your marriage
VOWS" Then calling upon them to stand up
and join hands as they did in the "old time"
he demanded Of them the promise to continue
to love one another until death should part
them, which they did, we believe, with the
most sincere intentions. He then read a Do
EN- sent by an absent friend:
"Jane Anderson, my Joy, Jane"
Then followed the broom-stick, in getting
oveT which the Bridegroom clearly proved
that the weight and wear OF more than "three
score and ten" years, has not deprived him Of
all the elasticity OF his youth. The perform
ance was highly amusing.
Then followed the refreshments, rich in all |
good things, but varying we presume some
what from the wedding dinner fifty years ago. |
There was one couple present who have
passed beyond their golden year-Air and
Mrs. G. Woodward. Two other couple who
are drawing very near, Mr.. and Mrs. H. B.
Adams, who lack but two years, and Mr..
and Mrs. o. Dole, who fall short but six.
The occasion was one of much interest to |
all. The happy pair seemed to renew their
youth and to be happy and joyful Why
should they not be? May they finish life's
voyage without an adverse wind. Enter the
heavenly port-which cannot now be far away !
in triumph, and find their unfading home
''eternal in the Heavens" w.
TO all Of which we say Amen - Ed.
