We noticed in last weeks REPuBLI-
CAN, like the following: "There was
delegation from Argos iE town, last Sat-
urday, among whom was an 'unsophist'-
Gated youth not in the habit of imbibing,
but was prevailed upon by some harden
ed sinner to swerve from the path of
moral rectitude, and partake of the ar
dent beyond what was compatible with
his mental and physical equilibrium,
which was violation of one of the city
ordinances land subjected him to fine of
one dollar, which like little man he
came up on Monday and paid" Bully
for him. Now Mr.. Millikan, this would
be good joke on Argos" or the "hard-
ened sinner" or the "unsophisticated
youth" or somebody else, if true. The
facts are. no citizen of Argos need go to
Plymouth to get on drunk. as they can
find plenty of "rotgut" nearer home
Secondly, the "unsophisticated youth
was full grown man, with full grown
beard and moustache, and fair knowl-
edge of the effects of too much tanglefoot
Thirdly he was not resident of Argos
or even of Walnut township.
Changers report the past week a good
season for gathering maple sugar. Don't
know how this is, but there never was
a better season for gathering mud on
your boots. At present is a good time
to gather around the fire: mercury 20 deg
below freezing point.
A lad some II or IS years old, residing
near Argos, undertook to immortalizt
himself last Saturday, by knocking his
mother down, then kicking, beating and
pulling her hair. for the simple reason
that she babe him clean the mud off his
boots, before passing over the floor which
she had been serubbing. A few week,
board witE our friend DAN might do thi.
young man some good, as well a. add an
other laurel to his crown.

Politicians are very much concerned
just now about what the Patrons of Hus-
baDdry are going to do. 1t is our opinion
that they will do just about as they
please, and candidates who are seeking
their favor, should be honest, industrious,
temperate good citizens, and assist every
laudable enterprise of the country. Shak-
ing hands and invitations to take "suthin
to drink, will not assist in the nomina-
ton of candidates quite SO much as for
merry.

one of the first merchants in Laporte to
adopt the ready pay system, and he has
rigidly adhered to it, Some of his old

Senator Morton, poor soul, is SO "hard
worked" that he could not possibly serve
on the committee for investigating the
affairs OF the District of Columbia. No
one doubts that there has been millions
OF dollars stolen by the District of Col
umbia Improvement ring, but it SO hap
pens thu several prominent Indianians
are IN this magic circle and the honest
oliver does not " ant to expose his friends.
-Laporte i5yus.
Senator Morton may have done some
mean things in his time; but he was new
er guilty of slandering his political oppo-
neIts. The Argue charges Senator Nor
ton with refusing to serve on an investi-
eating committee for the reason that his
friends have been robbing the govern ment,
and he does not want to expose them. II
Senator Morton had accepted an appoint
ment on the investigating committee, the
Argus could have charged him with ac-
cepting it in order TO prevent affair inves-
tigatlon. If the District of Columbia
affair needs thorough investigation, which
ii undoubtedly does, the committee
should be composed OF men who can give
1t the necessary attention. Senator Nor
ton is probably the hardest worked
man in congress, and whatever he under
takes to do. he does faithfully and thor
ougLiy and in justice to I;m his motives
should not be misrepresented. Robbery
is crime which should be punished.
SANDER, even for political effect, is quite
as diShonorable.

Temperance I'm Valparaiso.

Mayor Skinner, of Valparaiso, issued
q proclamation last Monday, warning per-
sons not to assemble and remain about
the premises of persons pursuing a lawful
business, against the consent of the own
ers. This is a warning to the ladies who
hold prayer meetings in saloons, or in
front of them, to the injury of the saloon
business.
The ladies answer the proclamation as
follows:
TO THE PUBLIC.
an the Temperance movement we have
undertaken, we have had no purpose to
violate the laws of the state, or interfere
with the rights of any citizen. We have
malice in our hearts towards none, but
charity toward all. We believe we have
the right to persuade men to cease from
strong drink, and to plead with the liquor
seller TO cease from his traffic. Believing
TOO, that God has called Us to the high
duty OF saving our fellow men, we will
not cease to pray and labor to this end.
II is our solemn purpose, with love in
our hearts to God and man, to go right
forward in the work We have undertaken,
and If the hand sf violence be laid upon
US We make our humble and confident
appeal to the God whom we serve and to
the laws of the State, whose faithful citi-
zens we are"

There were editors enough at the
Thomas concert, in Laporte, last Thurs
day night, to make a very respectable
editorial convention. Our young friend,
Ed. Jernegan, of the Mishawaka Enter
prias, who was there, says:
''In that portion of the house, which
some one cf them tacetiously termed
~News-paper Row. we noticed Mr.. Chase
she handsome editor Of the Elkhart Re-
cisss. and the versatile Mrs. Malloy, of the
ObseFssr; ID. 3 Marsh, the stylish editor
Of the South Bend Register, the good ma
tured. jolly Fasset Brothers. Of the Union,
and Mrs Stanfeid, the writer of the
Charming sNaloolm Duncan" articles In
the Tribune Of that city. Mr. Millikan, of
the Plymouth Republican, and Thos.
Jernegan of the Mich. City Entsrprise,
those two veteran editors Of Northern In
diana, helped ill ont the quota. besides
some others whom we did not recognize.
The Representatives of the Laporte press
were not mixed up in this crowd but
were seated little distance away"
It would be useless for Us to attempt to
comment upon fhs musical entertainment,
or even to commend 1t. We were pleased
with it.
