confined in the Boomingdale Asylum was brought be-
fore Judge Barrett the Supreme Court, Chambers
yesterday writ of habeas corpus Obtained by JQlp
ID. Townsend DR.. David Tlton Brown, experimenting
physician Of tie Asylum, having returned to the city,
produced Miss Drew in court and made return TO the

but famed herself quietly She was accompanied by
Miss Stevenson one Of her attendants She cOnversed
with her counsel, Mr. Townsend, and also with Mrs.
Irwin and NJ Vap Week. who has interested himself in

and Dr. Garrett Cozne stating that she endangered life
and property. He further stated that her brother
Thomas Drew, cognizanr OF her being sent 10 the

physicians written testimony shall DO taken as to the
alleged unaey, and filed in the County Clerks once,

ERNOR.-The citizens of Tippecanoe
county are strongly urging the claims of
Hon. GoDLoyE 5. ORTIZ, for the office OF
Governor Of this state. Mr. Ortiz has
been citizen of Lafayette, for about
twenty-five years and during that time
he has been an active politician, and re-
ceived the fullest confidence Of the peo-
pie and the Republican party. Should
he receive the nomination we will give

BILE candidate for Governor, aid request

From the Sycamore I'll. Republican
In the Abstract office of A. S. Bah.
cock. OF this city, hangs time-wor relic
OF the past, that every antiquarian must re.
gard with great interest 1t is an auto
graph letter of the Father OF his country,
written within a few days of the date of
his memorable farewell address, and di.
rected 10 his brethren OF the Grand Lodge
Masons of the State of PENNSYLVANIA.
From It's date and its tenor, We infer that
II was written IN response to some adj
dress by that Grand Lodge, which had
been called out by that immortal farewell
address in which the hero, the statesman,
and the patriot took leave OF public life
forever. This letter, faded and weather
stained as it now appears, was picked up
IN Virginia during the war of the rebellion,
and 1t Is due to the care exercised by Mr.
Babcock that it has been preserved from
destruction. 1t reads as follows:
December %, 1896.
Fellow Citizens and Brethren of the
Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania:
l have received your address with all
the feelings Of brotherly affection mingled
with those sentiments for the society,
which II was calculated to excite.
10 have been in any degree an instru-
ment in the hands of Providence to pro-
mote order and union, and erect upon a
solid foundation the true principle of gov
ernment. is only to have shared with
many Others in a labor, the result of
which, let us hope, will prove through all
ages sanctuary for the brothers, and a
lodge for the virtues.
Permit me to reciprocete your prayer
lot my temporal happiness, and to sup
piicate that we m " all meet thereafter in
that eternal temple whose builder is the
great Architect of the Universe.

State Convention.

The Republican State Convention will
be held at indianapolis, on the 22nd of
FEBRUARY, and as yet we have heard moth
ing said about holding primary meeting
in Marshall County 1t is about time
for the central committee to move in the
matter. The fact that the Democratic
party is in the majority here is a strong
reason why the republicans should be ac-
tive. We have voice in the nomination
OF state officers, and we should see that
men are nominated to fill the state offices
who are honest, capable, and the men of
our choice. A county convention should
be called imnediatelv

SEVERAL of our Democratic exchinge
papers solemnly affirm that they will sup
port no candidate fer county Office,
who is not subscriber for their paper.
SO far as our experience goes, Republican
candidates for Office do not need such in
situations thrown at them. They are
generally able to read and write, and feel
an interest in the affairs of the county, as
well as state and national.

speak it's mind on the subject

the only Republican candidate for Super
intendent of Public Instruction, in the
State The following we clip from the

Rev. B. Wilson Smith Is a candidate
for the office of State Superintendent of

its political faith, says:
"The principles of the Republican par.

main, receive our support. But it has be-

true OF the Democratic party. The times,
