ners' Association in this city today, be-
tween fifty and sixty mills being rep

from 50, 900, 600, 900 value in 1890 to 800
900, 900, 900 (estimated) in 1900, makes it
| plain tina our domestic markets can
no longer take all our manufactured
products, and,
Whereas, The southern cotton manu-
featuring interests alone have increaS-
ed from the product in 1890, of 81, 500, 900
| spindles to 5000, 900 (estimated) in 1900

gress, the following measures:
The preservation of the integrity of
the Chinese empire, of all our treaty

tenance of an open-door policy in him
! with the of all nations.
Vigorous prosecution of the Philip
pine war to a conclusion and the res
. toration Of order in hat territory by
our government.
Construction, without delay, of an
| isthmian ship canal.
Construction of a cable from the Pa
cific coast to Hawaii, Japan, China and
the Philippines and other Oriental
points.
Resolved, That we consider that a
large degree of the Importance of the
last three items lies in the value of
those measures in accomplishing the
first item n in protecting u trade
in China and other eastern countries.
Resolved, That we recommend, if it
be necessary, cooperation of our gov
eminent with the governments of Eng
land and Japan to preserve and protect
a common trade interest n treaty
rights for unrestricted commerce in
China and other eastern countries.
Resolved, That we recommend to
! congress such revision of our naviga-
ton laws as will foster the develop
ment of our merchant marine service to
an extent to handle our expanding for
! eign
| Resolved, That we recommend to
| congress such increase in our navy as

Reduction in Telephones,

The exchange rate on the Albion
and Kendallville Farmers Telephone
lines has been reduced from 10 cents
to cents per message to parties on
the Cresco exchange. This change to
take affect from July 18th 1899. This
makes two reductions that the Stand
ard Telephone Co. has made the peo-
pie Of this vacinity within the past
month. The interest Of the Standard
Telephone Co. is with the people, their
interest is yours, they have built and
equipped one of the best and finest
exchange in Cresco, that can be found
in any town in the state; their charg-
es are very low and moderate; they
were the means a year ago of reducing
the toll rates to all parts east that
their lines reached from 25 or 40 cents
to 10 cents, the rate charged by the
Standard, which was soon met by the
Bell Co. lines, and the people of this
vicinity received the benefit and just
as soon as proper arrangements can be
made by them, the same rate will ap-
ply to all parts west from Cresco, and
our people are not making any mistake
in giving them their patronage
and hearty support as they are no
monopoly company and are here to
please the people and are not asking
any eXorbitant prices.

County Notes.

We note in our recent trip about
the county substantial evidences of
thrift among many of its people. On
section 36 Saratoga twp, j. j. Korbel
has erected and had finished up in
elegant style, a new barn 50x54 feet
with 20 foot posts. Andrew Stinge1
was the builder.
Henry Haberling, in the north part
OF Howard township, has just COM
pleted new barn 40x45 feet with 20
foot posts. Ernest Frederick, in the
same township, has just completed a
new barn on his farm the size being
BANJO, posts Is feet, at a cost of a
$1,000, Henry Wolf being the builder.
Henry Theis, on the opposite farm in
Alton township, has just finished a
fine new barn 34x66 feet with 20 foot
posts at cost of 81, 1000. Henry Wolf
was the builder. In the fall he will
have new house which will add
largely to the value of his 100 acre
farm, also to the comfort of his
family.
John f. Gessel, in Alton township,
moved onto his farm there of 160 acres
some two years since, and during the
the time has furnished it with new
buildings throughout. His residence
is . stories, "a feet square, with a
wing same height, 16 feet square,
which is superbly finished throughout
and elegantly furnished. He has also
built large barn with a fine base
ment made from the granite found
upon his farm, with dimensions 40x50
feet, posts 20 feet. He has also made
from these granite rocks a milk house
14xl6 feet, which is constantly
supplied with fresh water from his
well adjoining, the water passing'from
the milk tank to a stock tank some
200 feet away. Mr.. Gessel also owns
160 acres of fine land with good i'm
provementS in Paris township.

Burglary and Intended Incendiar.
ism.

The house of Mrs. Maggie Hall at
Elma was entered by means of false
keys by family of hereditary thieves
running through long family lineage,
by the name of Woodward. Table
cloths, towels, sheets, silver ware,
pillow cases and numerous other
articles were taken. Fine table cloths,
were cut up, pillow cases with fine
lace trimming were dispoiled of their
trimmings and many of the stolen
articles that were recovered were
made practically worthless. These
articles were found in the house of
Woodwards, with lot of fine crock
cry, stolen from the burglarized prem
ises, with silverware and the mutt
lated mentioned. After committing
these depredations the burner was
removed from large kerosene lamp,
its contents poured upon the carpet,
set on fire and the house closed, but
the room being nearly air tight
and the carpet being all wool, the
kerosene burned out without setting
fire to the house, but carrying it's
smoke and grit through the entire
mouse blackening the walls, the
curtains, the contents Of cupboards,
drawers and closets from the smoul-
dering coal oil. A search warrant was
issued and these articles belonging to
Mrs. Hall was found in the house of
the Woodwards, who were also
arrested upon information filed
charging them with the aggravated
crimes. The County Attorney ap-
peared in behalf of the state and Joe
Griffin for the accused. Before the
parties were brought into court Mr..
Griffin proposed to the County
Attorney that there be no appearance
against the accused, that they be re-
quired to leave the county, and not
return thereto and they were accord
ingly taken down into Chickasaw
county and there probably turned
loose to prey upon, plunder, steal
from, and burn out other commune
ties. OF the wisdom of such an
with these known facts,
we pronounce no judgment, but
hope that no more such
vandalism will be compounded.
