Honorable Mention of Hero of the

Commander Dennis w. Mullan, re-
Gently in command OF the U. S. S.
Nipsic now in Honolulu) in letter to
the Annapolis city council OF Maryland,
expresses his thanks for the compliment
tsry resolutions adopted by the board in
recognition OF his services at Samoa and
says: These resolutions, coming from
my fellow citizehs OF the city of my ma
tivity, shall be ever cherished by me as
8 valued token OF their appreciation OF
my efforts to do simply my duty as an
officer OF the nation and as citizen of
this municipality. - American paper.
The presence in Baltimore yesterday
of Commander Dennis w. Mullan, U. S.
Navy, recalls the great Samoan'disaster,
in which the American men-of-war
Trenton and Nandalia, and the Eber,
Adler and Olga OF the German feet. were
lost, with many lives. Commander
Mullan, who is native OF Annapolis,
was the only American officer who saved
his ship, the Nipsic. Maryland has
cause to feel proud of such performance
on the part OF one OF her sons, and SIM
liar achievements on sea and land have
been appropriately recognized by the
official action OF her legislature. At
Samoa Commander Mullan not only
showed the qualities of a superior sea-
man and courageous man, but for
months his conduct OF affairs at Apia
had, previous to the disaster, prevented
the German officials from gratifying their
evident desire to appropriate the entire
control OF the island. With only the
little Nipsic, surrounded by the much
stronger war vessels of an unfriendly
nation, ne insisted that American rights
should be respected, and succeeded in
carrying his point. 1t is to be expected
that he viii receive some substantial re-
ward from the Navy Department.-TB Bal

what Constitutes Bigamy ?

An English court has at last set
tied disputed point in the law gov
erning bigamy. The wife in the
case married one man in 1880 and a
second five years later in the belief
that the first husband was dead.
The law requires the wife to wait
seven years IN the absence of proof
that her husband has died and re-
leases her at the expiration of that
time after deseTtion without such
proof If she does not know him to be
alive. But in this case the wife had
proof, which she believed, and mar
ned two years before the legal time
of waiting had expired. The CUES
ton then occurs if she is guilty of
bigamy. Five of the Judges con-
tended that she was and nine that
she was not. The decision of the
nine IS the law, not only in this case,
but IN those that may come after.

mend the same to the citizens of our

Every citizen of Ogemaw county
should set the day, May 4th, apart for
tree planting. Many doiiars can be
added to the value of home by the
addition of few shades. A nice line
of trees on each of our streets will
give our village an appearance of taste
and neatness which = &ilks.make il
doubly attractive to visitors and per-
sons seeking for a home. We would
like to see n systematic effort towards
tree planting on Arbor Day. Why
can not business be entirely suspended
and general move majeF The work
would be enjoyed and the good done
would be incalulabIe. In StandisiY

that day. Let us double that. Who

Party Distinction.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
/ otter hear the voter say, II can see no
difference between the parties" The rank
and file voter is too busy with the affairs of
a personal nature to study politics as an
abstraction. In theory the structural unit
of the Democratic party is sovereign
locality, and that of the Republican a SOW
ereign voter. Concrete politics is mani
tested in building party organizations,
nominating tickets and conducting cam
paigns.
The structure. aim and mission of each
party is usually judged by its primary and
yentions the spectator hears that town
ships, counties and States vote, and hears
the same in Democratic conventions, and
thus can see no difference between the par
ties. The difference should he heard, seen
and felt. There ought to be a decided Re-
publican demarkation from the Van Buren,
ritual. The sovereign voter should at all
points be recognized in the application of
the unit rule.
The members of our party hunger and
thirst for an easy, equitable and republican
order of business. The party tenets recog-
nize delegate authority, and we can build
on the voting unit. Our primal conferences
should be so near the voters that each can
take part without missing meal or paying
cent. Such action as would discard the
party distinction to all. This would teach
concrete policies, enlist wheelers, discom-
fort sef-seekers, promote harmony and
achieve success. Let us no longer present
the anomaly of talking like Republicans
and acting like Democrats. Party distinc-
tion can only be made manifest by party
rites. s. u. THOMPSON.
