The Valparaiso Vidette says "A local
editor of many years experience has de-
clared that the man is yet unborn who
could write local item and be perfectly
sure that nobody would be offended"
If we speak#ell of our neighbor, his
enemy will be offended. If we speak
disrespectfully of him his friend will
threaten to stop his paper. If we write
in favor of a city organization we offend
those who oppose it. &c, but who cares.
1t will be dull world if nobody moves
in it.

Some of the arguments used against
making city of Plymouth, were that it
would increase our taxes,-It would en-
able saloon keepers to procure license
that city government would be no better
than town government. Some were in
favor of city charter, because it would
enable officers to enforce an observance
of ordinances, and because streets and
alleys could be kept in better condition.

Laporte was left without Holly water last
Friday night and Saturday morning by
an accident. In attempting to exhibit the
Holly Water-works to advantage in the
presence of some 600 Odd Fellows, and a
large number of other citizens and stran-
gers, the maia pipe was burst near the
engine, consequently the entire city was
lett without their water supply from that
source. Fortunately they have plenty of
wells and cisterns to supply them for
their ordinary use. 1t was welt that the
accident occurred at time when there
was no extraordinary demand for water.
Some of the South Bend Stand Pipe
advocates thought the Holly exhibition a
failure. They did not know the rea-
son.

VIM. NJ Tweed appeared in the Court
! of Over and Terminer today, and when the
| case was called, Ex-Judge Fullerton said
! before any proceedings were taken he should
hand in a paper to which the associate
counsel for the prisoner had agreed. The
! paper is understood to be a protest against
Judge Davis presiding at the trial and
when read bv him seemed to excite his
surprise and Indignation. He character
| lied the paper as extraordinary and IN fact
untrTIthfll, but declined to point out any
particular passage as Objectionable.
| Mr.. Bartlett, Of the counsel for the de-
fense. then said if Judge Davis was saint
from heaven they would take the same
| course. A recess was then taken that
JUDGE Davis might consult his associates.
| After recess Judge Davis announced he
| should take no action on the untruthtul
and extraordinary paper presented by
Twced's counsel and ordered the case to
proceed. sharply checking Graham and Bart
lett who desired to argue the point. After
examining a juror and rejecting him and
when examining a second one Iweed'S
counsel claimed that under the new law
the court acting as trier Of jurors should
take the oath formerly prescribed for triers.
Judge Davis stated that it was no new
thing for Judge to be trier. Counsel con
tended against the Judge but without any
decision on this novel point the court All
iOurned till tomorrow.
1t is understood the paper contained
protest of the counsel against Judge DAVIS
presiding on the grounds that he is prelu.
diced against the accused since the last tria
and also that he is personally hostile tC
him.
