Justice tO Miss Willard.

The Moer, published at Evanstown,
Ill.,, Miss Wizards home, makes this
statement regarding the "revelation"
which it was said Miss Willard had re.
ceived:
1t is due Miss Frances E. Willard
that the paper in her own town should
make a correction of the ridiculous tel
egram flying through the Associated
Press the past week with the statement
that she communicated to the Alton
presbytery at lIillsboro, H., "revel-
alton" concerning its duty on the ques-
ton of woman suffrage. Miss Willard
promptly denied the allegation in the
Chicago Inter- Ocean, she not having
directly or indirectly addressed the or
ganization referred to on this or any
other subject. The telegram must have
had its origin in mistaken identity or
malicious misrepresentation, and we
ak our journalistic friends to make the
dnlende honorable at once.

The Indiana PAGER is no longer term

of trotting sires is an Indiana PAGER.
This is a fact admitted by all. The

PAGER equal standing with the trotter,
and the query isis he not the greater?

ed princes had they been so fortunate
as to have borne the poetical name of
some horse brought from the deserts of
Arabia. They have, without the aid
of an aristocratic ancestry, by their in.
dividual merit, forced their way to the
front, and although their ancestry may
always be as great mystery rs that OF
Melchisedec, yet they are now princes
