Alder Greek Cricks.

This week l will endeavor to give
as near as possible a complete MS
tory of Ireland.
Our little town is situated in Mad
ison township, on section IL, town
ship south, range 5 west. It's
first name was American City. This
name was given it by James Stew
art, who was called its proprietor.
However, this name was soon
changed. The frst post office was
established by Samuel PostlethwaiIt,
about the year lS47, on the oid
Mahin farm. 1t was called Alder
. Creek, but it did not last more than
u wear. when Ephraim Woods
opened up small store at Ireland
j and he was appointed post master.

In the first place the judiciary
committee slipped in two reports on
Senator Sweeney's bill requiring
railroad companies TO charge the
same rate for freight for short and
long hauls to points within the state.
The majority report was opposed 70
the bill. The report was the cause
|of some pretty severe exchanges OF
compliments by senators. Senator
lSweeney made q strong appeal ior
his bill. He explained the evils
resulting from the lack OF legislation
provided for in the bill. The evil
was remedied in traffic between
states, but for traffic within the
state the shippers were at the mercy
lof railroads. He arraigned the ma
liority of tho committee as being in
|collusion, at least by strong symPa-
lthy, with the railroads.
\ His language was strong and was
..lobiected to by Senator Newby, who
|declared that the senator from Du-
..bois had merely made an appeal TO
the galleries. "The bill is bun
