The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1900-11-28

'Pitiable, indeed, is the confession of
weakness made by The Phess when it
seeks justification for bolting party
caucuses and primaries in the declara-
tion that others have done the same
THE Philadelphia insurgent organ
editorially advises its readers that
there is no party obligation that COM
pels them to respect the decisions Of
the Republican primaries or the Re-
publican caucus, In the recent cam
paign IL urged defeated insurgent can
didates to join with Democrats in order
10 defeat at the polls the stalwart Re-
publcans nominated at the Republican
primaries. Failing in this effort to Sc
cure majority legislative control The
Press now vehemently declares that
insurgent members must not take part
in the senatorial or organization eau
cuses, contending that the party rules
and usages do not impose such an OBJ
legation.
"The primary and the caucus are the
means through which the will Of the
party is ascertained. Once ascertained,
it should be binding on all members of
the party. The party will is ascertain
ed for the purpose of being obeyed.
The policy of The Press is to subvert
the ascertained will of the party"

An Apple Eater.

During a visit to the south Of England
q gentleman was met with who related n
unique and most interesting experience in
dietetics II was that for the last three
years he had lived on one meal n day,
and that meal was composed chiefly Of
apples! Further astonishment was evok-
ed by his reply TO my question as to what
he drank when he stated that the juices
of the apples supplied him with all the
moisture or drink he needed. This, he
claimed, was Of the purest kind, being
in reality water distilled by nature and
favored with the pleasant aroma of the
apple. He partook Of his one meal about
3 o'clock in the afternoon, eating what
he felt satisfied him, the meal occupying
him from 20 minutes TO half an hour.
He looked the picture Of healthful man
hood and is engaged daily in literary
work.-Chambers' Journal.

HIS HARD pnORlEM.
An Obstreperous wife and an Iusur-
ance Policy In Her Name.

1t happened in an insurance Office.
The caller, who was a large man with
very red whiskers. came in and intro
duced himself as Mr.. So-and-so, who had
taken out a life policy for $4,000 about
four years before.
81 remember" said the man at the
window.
81 had the policy made out to my
wife-that is, l had it made payable to
her. Well, l want it changed. We've
had falling out, and she's gone back
home, and so, of course, | don't want TO
carry that policy in her name any lon
GER"
an that case the thing you want to do
is to have her formally transfer the pol
Icy to you"
"What's she got to do with it? You
know that | took out that policy and
that I've made all the payments, carried
it in her name just to make it easy for
her to collect in case | died. Now want
to take it ont Of her name. We've dis
solved partnership"
what you want her TO do Is to have
her sign over the policy to you."
"She wouldn't sign over anything. Why
can't you just change this policy and put
1t in my nameY
''Shc is the policy holder, and so far as
the face Of the policy shows you have no
rights whatever. SO far as the reading
of the policy goes to show you have no
interest in the policy except as the person
upon whose death the payment of the
policy is contingent"
"That is, the only thing | can do in the
premises is to go and die?"
"That is the only thing you can do
which will in any way affect the opera
ton of this policy"
"If | die, | suppose she gets the
money"
eyes, if she can produce the policy"
well, she can't because I've got it
locked up. But it amt worth anything
to me as it reads now, is it?"
Nothing whatever"
"If stop paying on it, though, I lose
all that put in.2
"You lose all except n surrender value.
But you can't collect that. The policy
holder is the only one who may claim
that"
what in thunder can do?"
"Go and make an arrangement with
your wife"
"Do you know my wifeT'
"No."
"Then you don't know what you're sug-
| gesting. 1t seems to me the only thing |
can do at present is to guard my health
and keep her out Of that $4,000 until my
| lawyer can tame her down enough TO
have a talk with her."-New York Tele-
| gram.

The West Side Fire statIon.

The special committee to which was
referred the matter of investigating
the feasibility of locating the West
Side fire station just above the ap-
proach to the bridge visited the local
ity Thursday and looked over the
ground.
A member Of the committee stated
yesterday that they were well pleas
ed with the location and that their re-
port would probabaly be in favor of
the adoption of the site for the new
building.
The advantages to be gained by the
adoption of this site are several. In
the first place, the ground belongs to
the city and the cost of lot would
thus be saved; the building would be
centrally located so far as the West
Side is concerned. and would be con-
venient in case Of second alarms on the
East Side.
Some OF the neighbors on the West
Side are objecting to the selection of
this site on the ground that build
ing there would cut off their view of
the Muskingum and the Park.
Council will probably settle the mat
ter after the committees report is
given Tuesday night

The teachers of Washington county,
after week of good work, are leaving
today for their respective homes.
That Marietta has profited by their
presence there can be no doubt. The
teacher is strong factor. potent in

but also in the community. His op-
portunities for doing good are many,
and every word he utters, every move
he makes is listened to and watched
with the closest scrutiny. We are
glad that the teachers have been with

so successful. The best wishes of the

FOUR MEETINGS A YEAR.

| DNiciN tiN ouJoui
;ernoon, Superintendent Williams, in a
few pertinent remarks, favored the
| idea of having about four teachers
meetings each year, to be held in diff
erent points in the county. He argued
that teachers should organize, should
meet and discuss their work more Of
ten than once year
A motion was made by Prof Farlow
seconded by Prof. Weaver, to hold
such meetings in October, December
February and April. The motion was
| adopted unanimously.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ORGAN
IZES.
The new Executive Committee or
ganized by the election of Prof Leake
IS chairman, and Prof. Booher, as sec
| retary.
Prof. Leake. the chairman, advises
| ,he Leader that next year the Institute
will be held one week later in August
than this year The Round Table will
be made one of the prominent features
4 the program, and a lady instructor
will be secured for primary work.
Prof Booher, the secretary of the
lew Executive Committee, is of the
opinion that the first meeting of the
new teachers organization will be
held during the month of October. The
place has not as yet been determined
upon, but it is quite likely that quite a
number of the towns of the county will
be applicants for The honor. These
meetings will be held under the direc-
ton of the regular Institute Executive
Committee.
Dr. Hinsdale's lecture last evening
was very instructive and was listened
to with interest by the audience.
The subject of the lecture was DE
mands of American Democracy upon
the Public Schools"
The great demand of Democracy to-
day is craftsmanship. This must be
inculcated in the chIld by the public
schools. They must teach the pupils
TO read and write understandingly and
in addition must instruct them in the
typical and fundamental branches of
knowledge. The schools must of nee
essity be free and be supported by the
State, for neither parochial nor secular
schools have the means of support, tax
ltion, upon which the State can draw
rhe higher schools are necessary ad-
uncts to the common schools. ANY
