Observations.

For several weeks past we have OBJ
served with interest, efforts put forth in
villages throughout the adjoining states
to secure an ordinance making the Ii
cense for peddlers and nonresident
auctioneers so high, as to be virtually
prohibitive. 1t has been favOrably COM
mented upon by different papers. This
is an excellent move if carried out in
the proper spirit. The newspaper man
is the first to come to the front and con-
denim this mode of depriying the busi-
ness man of his locality of their deserv-
ing patronage. But how is it on the
part of some of those who cry the loud
est against this imposition?
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

gentlemen, is the key note to our sue
cess. And While we speak of success,
just for the purpose of gaining valua-
bic information, keep your eye upon
our movements this coming summer
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

Our mind is brought to bear upon
certain business men in Plymouth, who
have come under our observation along
this line since our short sOjourn here.
They had grievances the same as above
mentioned, wherein men dealing in the
same line of goods, who paid no taxes
or supported families in our city, came
here to do business for few days, then
"vamoose." We were approached re-
garding the matter, and did refer to un-
fair competition. 1t was but short
time subsequent that we approached
these same parties in regard to adver-
tising. There answer was: They did
not think it necessary to advertise, they
were so well known" 1t is a fact, that
when "bummer' comes to Plymouth
whose line of trade completes with them,
they expect the newspapers to take up
their fight. And what is the actual
fact in the case: Look over the files of
your home papers and you discover this
peddler has spent more money in the
publishers office in his two or three
days sojourn than the kicker has dur
ing the entire year.
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

Have you people wide awake bust
ness mems association; an association
that keeps its eyes open for something
that will prove beneficial to the welfare
of your different cities? That is one of
the most important features of q pro-
gressive city. Now Plymouth has got
this essential feature, and ere the hard
earned dollars of her citizens 60 to
assist some heralded enterprise, the
closest scrutiny of the board of di-
rectors of our business mems associa-
tion must pass favorably upon it before
Q move is made. This one feature,
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

We observe the Nappanee News tells
something of interest to its readers in
regard to money contributed toward
public enterprises. 1t remarks that
during the past ten years the money
given for such enterprises, if made pub
lie, would not only be startling to out
siders, but also an object lesson for a
method of building up city.
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

Yes, we believe in protection, and
such protection to, that benefits the
merchants of our city above all cOmerS.
But we do not believe in that kind of
protection that helps the merchant,
while the printer goes begging for the
work that unfair competition secures.
There is no business in a town that be-
gins to do for its patrons, gratituously,
than the newspapers, and their influ-
ence for good is greater than any other
single influence exerted, if used in the
right direction.
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

The Walkerton Independent, in com
menting on the wall of dissatisfaction
of the News, says: "If all the sums of
money which have been donated toward
public enterprises in Walkerton during
the last ten years were published, the
figures would also be startling"
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-15

Now there is food for thought.
Whether the shot of Brother Endley
was intended to be sarcastic, and in
tended to denote the sleepiness of that
village, we leave our readers to infer.
But here is an object lesson we have an
opportunity to illustrate to our above
quoted friends, which we cannot help
but utilize.

LAFAYETTE'S GRAVE.



1t Is In Old Paris, and N siIken AmsricAn
Flag Always Floats Over IL
while in Paris a short while ago, "
said a traveller recently, lit occurred TO
me that il was fitting act to make a
pilgrimage TO the tomb of that illus
trious Frenchman, dear to the hearts Of
al American patriots, Marquis de La
fayette. | asked n number of people be-
fore l could find any one to enighten
me rs to the spot. but after repeated in
quiry ascertained its location. The grave
is situated in old Paris, within the
grounds of convent that the ancestors
of Lafayette founded, and where repose
the remains of many Of the French no
bility. The first thing that attracted my
attention i'll connection with the hero's
tomb was that above it fioated silken
flag bearing the stars and stripes.
1T seems that good many years ago
an American gentleman left III his will
a sum Of money to be used for the spe-
cial purpose of keeping am American
flag forever flying above the grave Of
Lafayette. 1t has done SO, without in
termission, from the day the will went
into effect, and whenever, through the
wear of the elements, one flag becomes
unserviceable new one straightway
takes its place. Through untold centuries
the emblem of the country which, in its
early struggles for liberty, had his be-
ne1icent aid will wave above his ashes. q"

Importance of the Exchange Reader.
The man who reads the exchanges il
a very important man, and. let me say,
too, he is pretty highly paid man. He
has to read, we viii say. 5000 papers
regularly. All the newspapers in the
country come into the office, and he does
not do anything else. He sits at his desk
all day, and a pile Of newspapers, or,
say, a cord of newspapers. is laid before
him every morning. He starts to work
and turns them over and over TO see
what is in them he has to know what
it is that should be taken from them
and put into his paper. What is the in
teresting story? It requires Judgment 20
know this 1t requires knowledge and
experience as well as talent. 1t also re-
quires sense of humor, because there
are a great many things that are really
important that may not seem SO at the
first glance, and the newspaper reader
has got to judge about that. He must
always be on hand and spend q great
many hours at his desk, and he is pretty
tired when he gets through with his
day s task. 1t is hard duty, but he has
lots of amusement, and, as / said, he il
very well paid. So he is happy.

A FREAK oF NATURE.
The Navel Orange and How It Came s~
This Country.


The first navel orange was doubtless
freak or "sport, as horticulturists
say. To make such fruit by artifice
would be impossible. IL is abnormal
even in the bud The navel shows in the
bud rs early rs the latter can be ex-
amined under the microscope. IL may
even be traced back to the flower, " hich
is double-though that word does not
express the idea very well. each blossom
having a secondary blossom within It,
In the developed fruit the navel is itself
a secondary orange, in some specimens
having a distinct skin surrounding IT,
The two story orange is no novelty
A book ON horticulture published in
1912 gives picture of the navel orange
and calls it ''pomum Adami fortum. "
This is the earliest reference known
The blossoms rarely have any pollen, and
the fruit is usually, though not always,
seedless. The variety is reproduced by
budding. Where it originated is not
known with certainty, but il was prob
ably in southern Asia Thence il was
brought TO the region of the Mediterra-
mean and eventually diffused over the
world A lady who had travelled in
Brazil told Mr.. Saunders, chief gardener
Of the departments of agriculture, about
tho orange, which she had seen in that
country. Acting on this information,
Mr.. Saunders told Star reporter that
he sent to Bahia and secured a dozen
young budded trees These reached the
United States in 1870, being the first
navel orange trees known here.
From these trees others We're propa-
gated One of the first batch thus OBJ
tanned is now in the orange house of the
department of agriculture In 1873 two
of the trees We're sent to Mrs. l. G.. Tib-
bets of Riverside, Cal At the same time
others were sent to Florida But those
planted in California fruited more quick
ly and were the first to attract attention.
Ii soon became evident that the climate
of that state was better suited to the
cultivation of this variety. In Florida it
is not sufficiently productive. e., does
not bear freely enough TO be profitable.
Nevertheless the finest navel oranges
come from Florida, though they are not
so handsome as those from California
