WHEN Col Wilder s. Metcalf re-
turns to Wellington, as he will about
the middle OF next month, he should
receive welcome that would be one
Of the pleasantest recollections of his
life. The people Of Kansas are proud
Of him. for next to General Fred Fun
ston, he is the most distinguished
citizen soldier that the grasShopper
state has sent to the Philippines.
Wellington should be prouder of him,
for this was his home long before he
went to Kansas. Here it was that he
received his first commission and
early training as a military man. As
sargeant, and later as lieutenant, Of
the old Wellington militia (long since
defunct) he began to develop those
traits of discipline and leadership that
have served him so we'll in his Philip
pine experiences. 1t was here, too,
that he found his wife and spent the
first years Of married life. No town
has stronger claim to him, unless it be
the town of his birth, than yelling
ton. What could be more approprl-
ate then, than that his homecoming
should be made the occasion for pub
lie reception and banquet, in his hon
orr His old comrades OF Co. G, OF
whom fifteen or sixteen still remain
in Wellington, doubtless would be on
ly too glad to join in welcoming him,
and the people of Wellington will be
equally as pleased to confer an honor
30 we'll earned and richly deserved.

celebrated the completion of the

little too early for fireworks just yet,

opportunity to let off pent up enthus-
iasm, the suggestion may not be out of
place that the completion of the Well
ington 0berlin electric line, providing
such happy consummation is ever
brought about, will furnish the
occasion and ample justification for all
the oratory and fireworks that this
town is able to get together.

REPUBLICAN RALLY.

Next Wednesday Night.

Big Attractions Billed for wellington
Next Wednesday Night.
The most important Republican rally
of this falls campaign in southern
Lorain county will be held at Yelling
ton, Wednesday evening, Nov. /, when
Hon. Harry NJ. Daugherty and Judge
John NJ. Sheets will address the people
of this city and vicinity. The meeting
will be held in the Opera house, and,
weather permitting, it promises to be
the largest political gathering since
the memorable campaign Of 1895.
Indeed, the rally next Wednesday
night will not be unlike the campaign
meetings Of '96. The speeches will be
preceded by torca-light procession,
bands and marching delegations from
neighboring towns will be here, and il
is expected that the evening will be
further enlivened by a liberal display
of fireworks. 1t is said that Penfield,
Huntington, Brighton, Pittsfield, and
possibly La Grange, 0berlin, Rochester
and other nearby towns will send
delegations. Among the bands ex-
pected, besides the Wellington band
are the Brighton Marshall band, the
Huntington Cornet band, one of the
Oberlin bands and possibly ths La
Grange Cornet band.
But the important part Of the rally
will be the speeches, however interest.
ing the preliminary demonstration
may be. The principal speaker, Hon.
H. NJ. Daugherty, is known as one OF
the best campaign orators Of the state.
The other speaker, Judge Sheets, is
candidate for attorney-geReral on the
Republican ticket, and he is said to be
very fluent and eloquent.

The total enrolment to date is 121,

leaders in business education judged
by equipment, thoroughness Of courses,
success of graduates, or any other
criterion. The people of this county
have in o. B. 9. an opportunity to Sc
cure at home as good as there is in the
country in the line of business educat-
ion. No wonder so many are going to
Oberlin.
The new class in shorthand to be
formed November lst bids fair to be
large and enthusiastic. This short
hand school is becoming more popular
every day with the best class of stu
dents, and the success of its graduates
even more pronounced. Any student
who enters this new class will have an
exceptional opportunity.
