Room For Improvement.

1t is to be hoped that during the per-
f0rmance of "A Clean Sweep" Tor
any other entertainments for that mat
ter at the opera house on Saturday night
some effort will be made to reduce the
gallery gods to condition of at least
good behavior, and have them refrain
from the whistling and stamping by
which they usually mark their approval
of a performance.
The noise and din usually made by
these theatre patrons would do credit to
an Indian village, but if taken as a
mark of good judgment from the young
members of a civilized community,
it is certainly nuisance which the cit
izens of Plymouth have right to de-
mand should cease. The INDEPEND-
ENT is always on the alert to chronicle
anything that may tend to the advance
ment of our city and county, and though
this is a minor matter, it is one in which
some marked improvemt would be well
come. The prompt application of a lit
tie chastisement in the way of a repre-
mand would act as check to these un-
ruly and annoying demonstrations,
and be benefit which those who ap-
preciate theatrical performance would
not be slow to recognize.

Indiana Commercial Organization

And still the wheels of progress and
thrift and enterprise move slowly but
surely in our great state. 1t is aptly
quoted in one of the famous operas that
has in days gone by been popular upon
the theatrical stage, that 'Love, levels
all rank Thus too, is the fact, that or
ganization, in just cause, in time levels
all opposition that may arise to interfere
with the advancing columns of industri-
al and commercial growth. Through
circular issued by the Indiana
Commercial organization, to the Busi-
ness Mems Association, of Plymouth,
which organization has become known
abroad the members met last Friday
night in the Masonic club room, and
talked over the adviSability of the pro-
position presented to them, of forming
State Commercial and Municipal
League.
The object of this organization will
be to further the commercial and indus
trial interests of our state, and other
points of interest that pertain to our
advancement.
The meeting decided in favor of the
forming of state organization, and
President c. L. Mattingly and Secretary
o. T. Ketcham, were appointed as dele
gates to the convention. The call states
that the meeting will be held in the
Commercial Club Room at Indianapolis
at 10 o'clock a. m., on the morning of
December 18th, 1894.
The number to attend this meeting is
not limited to the two mentioned above,
and it is probable that others from Ply
mouth will attend this the first univer-
sal state movement toward the upbuild-
ing of our home institutions. And still
the good work goes on.

A New Deal.

While the trials and viciSsitudeS of the
newspaper man are many, and dis
cOuragementS more numerous than
in other lines of business, yet the bright
flashes of sunshine that momentarily
illumate his pathway, doubly repays
him for all the sleepless nights and
weary days of toll he has been subjected
to in his efforts to get out a newsy paper
for his patrons. 1t is through no
egotistical desire to parade before the
citizens of our newly acquired home,
that we reproduce the following from
the pen of an old patriarch in the
newspaper work; but from heart full
of love and veneration for a dear, tried
and true friend, who in the days agone
saw something of merit in the red
headed freckled-faced kid that used to
sweep out his office and placed as
afoetida in his paste pot. The writer,
Wells Corey is editor of the (Pekin ILL.,
Tribune, and has given to the world
some of the most brilliant and effective
editorials from republican stand point,
as are found in some of the most
popular dailies of the present day. He
says:
"We are in receipt of several copies
of the Marshall County INDEPENDENT
published in Plymouth, Indiana. This
is new Independent paper, which be-
ing out of our bailwick will not be
benefited especially by any notice in
the Tribune But as it is edited and
published by a. r. Zimmerman, form
erly of the Dwight, Star and Herald and
afterwards of Lemont paper and as
Al Zimmerman is one of our boys, who
got his training from us and was for
many years the life and soul, devil and
saint, in our office, we take especial
pleasure in what appears to be most
successful entrance in the newspaper
world. The INDEPENDENT is chuck
full of Zlmmermanisms, which mean
spice, good sense and a due proportion
of deviltry, duly compounded with a
large proportion of consummate enter
prise. God bless you, Al. May you
meet with the full measure of success,
your pluck, your idomitable energy and
your large heart richly deserve, is the
earnest wish of your old boss but
earnest friend, the editor of the Tribune.

A Creditable Showing.

The business of the EdgertOn manu-
featuring company for the past year
shows gratifying increase and the fol-
lowing facts regarding the business of
the year may be of interest to our read
s.467 ,000baskets and 80, 200 broom hand
les were made and sold, necesSitating an
expenditure of $4,000 for labor and
some $1,000 for timber. Continuous en-
ployment was furnished to 90 or 10
hands.
New machinery has lately been add
ed to the works and as soon as a suffi
cient supply of suitable timber can be
secured the Edgerton company will COM
mence the manufacture of wagon
spokes during the winter months. Such
a factory as this is credit to any city
and Plymouth may well be proud of
having such a successful industrial en-
terprise in its midst.

by a more careful reading that it only
states that the Bell Telephone Co., owns
and controls certain patents, which in
formation is not new to any one posted in
the telephone situation, and no intima-
ton is made that the users of our
phones are using an infringing instru-
mentS.
The patents above mentioned relate
only to the class known as microphone
tranSmitters, of which the Blake is d
typical representation, and in no way
bear upon the class in use in Plymouth
The case now before the Supreme Court
only affectsmicrophOne transmitters and
the case cannot affect the Plymouth
telephone exchange. We will take
pleasure in showing to interested part
les copies of each of above mentioned
patents also the patents upon which
our instruments are based, all of which
have expired We have absolutely
nothing to do with Edison or Berliner
patents, nor the carbon telephones, and
hence, advise our customers to take no
notice of the letters above referred to.

the Governors of New England, has
been universally addOpted throughout
the United States. The observance first
drifted into the middle states, followed
by the western states, and finally taken
up by the southern states.
Prior to the civil war, the governors
of the several states individually issued
their proclamation, but during this un-
pleasantness, and since that time, the
proclamation has been issued by the
President of the United States.
The first thanksgiving service ever
rendered in America was in the year
1921, after the first harvest had been
gathered which consisted of twenty
acres of corn, six of barley and a few
bushels of peas. This first thanksgiving
service did not only last an hour or even
a day, but for one week they continued
to render thanks to the creator for the
abundant harvest, as it was to them.

the faith of men loyal to their home
city and who have in season and out of
season persistently paraded the advant
ages of their town before all the world
In Plymouth, nothing is lacking but
unity of purpose. Our business mems
association is composed of prominent
business men, and while a large mum
Der of citizens are not active members
yet they are in accord with its transac.
tions, and with proper encouragement
the future prospects of our beautiful
city stands second to none.
The sterotyped phrase that such un
dertakings cost great deal of money, OF
that it will have some political effect
upon our city In the future, is bugga
boo, and should be relegated to the real
for all time to come.

And He Got Left.

We never desire to tell tales out of
school, especially upon our brothers of
the quill, but little incident came to
our knowledge which we must tell. 1t
relates to our friend Davis, now of
North Liberty, but formerly of Knox.
1t seems he had been down to the latter
place on election day, starting for home
the next morning Arriving at Hib-
bard, and having little time to spare,
he commenced reading the returns and
was SO overpowered by them that he
fell into stupor, which the rattle and
bang of the train for North Liberty
could not dispel. When he regained
his senses he desired to know how soon
his train would arrive. Being informed
that it had departed half hour before,
he savagely folded up his political jour
nal, and the last seen of him, he was
tearing coupons off his pass as he
counted ties between Hibbard and his
home

A Right Position.

In last weeks issue of the Walkerton
Independent, appeared an article taking
us to task, also criticising us severely re-
garding the article in our issue of Nov.
9th, concerning the small p0x in that
place. AS far as the statement made at
that time under existing circumstances,
we believe no apology is necessary, and
would submit the following to them:
On Thursday the 8th, reports were
circulated in Plymouth, that parties
from Walkerton had been on our streets,
one of the party being from a house in
which small pOx had been discovered,
and BROKEN OUT previous to his COM
ing to this place. Also, through this
same party case of small pox was in
this city, resulting from this visit.
The INDEPENDENT, in the limited
time before going to press, used every
means to verify the truthfulness or
falsity of the rumor. Being unable to
get at the exact facts in the case, and
still believing that our people had been
exposed to contagion, we published,
what our brother of the Walkerton In
dependent calls an act "of presumption,
unfairness and a disregard for facts" !"
We in no way desire to make the bur
cen of our sister city any greater; but
we did deem it necessary to sound a
note of warning, and that if the report
was a fact, that the health officers
had allowed those who were under quar-
antine to leave the premises, they de-
served censure.
1t is not necessary to say more on this
subject. If the case had been vice YER
sa we would have received the same
kind of lecture. And although the
editor of the Independent at Walkerton
thought at that time we had no good
grounds for complaint, we believe he
will give us the credit of working and
using our best endeavors for the benefit

The First Time.

One day last week one of our old re-
spected farmers and his wife, who live
near Teegarden, decided to come to Ply
mouth and have their photograph
taken. In the hustle and hurry on this
important occasion our worthy farmer
friend forgot to do his regular weekly
job of shaving, and upon arriving at
Plymouth was in quandary. His wife,
after considerableen entreating, pursuaded
him to go to barber shop. So, with a
demeanor something similar to guilty
school boy he entered barber shop and
awkardly awaited his turn. After he
received the necessary toilet he ten
dered Pete quarter and started out
of the shop. Being reminded of the
change due him he seemed somewhat
surprised remarking: Il thought that
was what you charged Then in a gush
of confidence he said: "The fact is,
Squire, this is the first time | ever was
in barber shop" He seemed highly
pleased with his treatment, and no
doubt Nicolay has secured another
steady customer.
