A JUDICIAL OUTRAGE.

The Mercury lamely attempts to de-
fend "Mandamus" Aderhold from the
charge that he is wrongfully possess
ed of the Office of county clerk, and
says that ''Mr. Aderhold offered to
have the votes of Brown township
opened and counted right there. P"
Two wrongs don't make right, and
there was very simple and legal way
to settle the disputed question, by re-
fering it to the regular contest court,
but with Vandivert on the bench the
republican gang knew they had a
cinch and they proposed to stay with
it. We have not raised the question
as to who really was elected county
clerk two years ago, but we make this
assertion of our belief. The county
commissioners proceeding in the reg
ular way pointed out by law declared
Mr.. Harper elected. If the republi-
cans had been looking for justice and
believed an error had been made they
had their recourse to the contest court.
But it was not justice they were after.
It was a sure thing and they knew that
if they could get the question into the
district court they had it.,
SO the maudamus was invok-
ed and in this case the manda-
mus was not only irregular but illeg-
al, but it accomplished its purpose,
for the lawyers who engineered the
deal know that if Aderhold was once
in the Office, they could make a con-
test SO expensive, and delay it so long
that nothing could ever be accom-
plished towards ousting him. The
fact that it was the Office that was
wanted and not justice, was made ap-
parent when after the "hold-up" the
suggestion was made to the republi-
cans that we would institute contest
and simply ask to have the votes
opened and counted by the contest
court, and the proposition was refused
and the threat made that if contest
was instituted, the fellows would be
made sick of it by piling up expenses
so it was abandoned and the question
Left to the voters, and now they have
the opportunity to say whether this
game of ''hold-up' as practiced two
years ago shall go, not only unrebuk-
ed but be endorsed, for to elect Mr..
Aderhold is to endorse Vandiverts
action of two years ago.

The republican papers are making
considerable noise and charging that
Judge Andrews owned little stock in
q bank in Rush county, but they neg
lect to tell q little incident that hap
pened in that county some time since.
A case was brought up against the
bank in question, before Andrews.
One of the attorneys made a motion
to have the case taken before another
judge, and set up the plea that And
rews was interested in the case and
would not give them fair hearing.
Judge Andrews, conscious Of his Owl
integrity, refused to send the case
away and went ahead, and the bank
was beaten. Still the republicans
have the effrontery to assert that they
fear he would not be fair. They don't
want a fair man; they want one whom
they can uae, and they know that
Andrews is not that kind of a man.

where There .re no old M.,ds.

In Greece it is considered an ever lasting disgrace to remain an old maid. Girls are betrothed very often when still tiny babes.
 Marriages of love are absolutely un- known-even more so than in France. And the father is most particular that the intended husband must have all ample provision to support wife and family. For the girl dowry is not so important as in France, but cer- tain amount of linen and household furniture is required. The whole training and education of Greek girl is simply preparation to render her brilliant in the society of the great world. Her toilet is subject of con stant anxiety.
 Although most Greek girls are nat urally very pretty, they begin to paint and powder from very early age cheeks bright red, eyebrows aud lashes deepest black and veins deli cately blue. The result is that she is a withered old woman at 40. and nowhere are uglier women to be found than beneath the blue skies of lovely Greece.
 /
 Next in importance to beauty comes languages. Every Greek family who can afford it keeps French nurse or maid, and French is universally spoken in society. Painting and music are quite unnecessary, but girls are care fully trained in dancing and drilled to enter room and sit down with C. gance. Lastly, household duties are taught-how to make rose jam, Turk ish coffee and various delicate sweet. meats.
