HOLDEN
Nance.

The rain was very welcome, and
all nature responds accordingly.
Wire worms are damaging some
fields of corn and cut worms are work
ing in gardens.
There were more than seventy
guests at the Clothier-L osey wedding
at Geo. Critics.
Cards are out for the Bloomington
alumni reception at the elegant home
of Mrs. J. P. A. Black, May %.
Mr.. Thompson's barn burned Tues
day, causing the loss of one horse, and
badly injuring four others. A smoul-
dering trash fire was the cause.
Tt is said to show lack of taste to
publicly acknowledge assistance given
during sickness, but even at such risk
we feel that the esprit of God prompted
the choicest offerings and deep solicit
tude of so many homes during Eddie'S
severe illness. Oh the beauty OF that
"In-as-much!"
True to the Methodist Episcopal
part of her nature, Mrs. NJ. E. Gooder
encouraged diffident OF timid little
hearts Sunday evening by noticing
and making practical, salient points
in the lesson, aptly comparing the
overcoming of their reluctance to
help in such league work as they
could do, to the heroism of the little
waiting maid of Naaman's wife.

E. A. Tidd In Trouble.

Last Friday f. A. Tidd who has
been day operator at the Rock Island
station in this city for more than a
year was arrested on complaint of his
mother, Mrs. S. A. Tidd, of Omaha,
on charge of adultery or unlawful
cohabitation. It appears that he has
wife and child in Omaha, while he
has been living with a young lady,
supposedly his wife, ever since he has
been here. After having him arrested
Mrs. Tidd refused to prosecute him,
withdrew the complaint on her own
motion and paid the costs. The lady
who had lived with him here as his
wife also refused to prosecute him.
We understand he agreed to go back
to his wife and child, giving wife No. 2
$50 and ticket back to her people in
Illinois.
1t seems rather strange that man
may be guilty of such miSdemeanorS
in a civilized community and escape
punishment. Mr.. Tidd had also had
some trouble with his creditors here
and only last week his household goods
were taken under mortgage for in
debtedness that he apparently did not
intend to pay.
Mr. Tidd is first class telegrapher
and gentlemanly appearing young
man. He was leader of the band here
for awhile, and was generally thought
to be a highly respectable young man,
so that his downfall came as a sur
prise to the community.

If newspaper readers only under
stood what advertising meant they
would say that the real news that
effects the pOcketbook is found in the
advertisements of local merchants.
The merchant who adyertiSes is a re-
porter. He reports to. the people
through the newspaper what he has
for sale, what bargains he has to offer,
and it is real news. 1t affects the
pocketboOk of every family. If some
merchant is making a great run on
shoes and selling them cheap, that is
news that every person who needs
shoes ought to know. If another is
Offering special bargains in suits,

that means money to every family and

the Matter viii, r1cKinIey2

William Allen White, editor of the
Emporia Gazette and generally recog-
nized as one of the ableSt literary
fellers' among the republican editors
of the state, prints the following
estimate of William Mckinley, prob
ably as check to the blind idolatry
of some of the lesser editors:
mckinley never had an idea in his
head. He is essentially not a thinker.
He is in no sense a scholar. He has
not kept abreast of the economic
thought of his time. Until the cam
pampaign of '96 he was insure about
finance. He has uttered no Senti-
ment in all his four years of official
speaking and writing that has lived 30
minutes after it was put on paper.
Twenty men in Marion county can
make as good a speech as Mckinley
and the editor of the Record can
make better speech than Mckinley
ever dreamed of. No man who doesn't
read can have much to say. YOn can't
draw water from an empty cistern.
mckinley Is only d Ihslh Jooo q
common, ordinary man, with two legs
and the usual number of feet and
eyes and brains and teeth and verte-
brae. A man doesn't have to know
much to be president of the United
States. The average president of the
United States stripped of his fame and
power would not be eligible to mem
bership in mans literary club in a
country town. There has been three
exceptions to this rule in 40 years.

VIII Go over the Road This Time.

The case of. the state of Kansas VS..
John Lane charged with the larceny
of $50 worth of wheat from Henry
Danner, of Medicine township, was
tried last Thursday and Friday.
The case was submitted to the jury
at 3 O'Clock on Friday and after 81
hours elaboration they brought a
verdict of guilty of grand larceny.
This is the first time Lane has ever
been found guilty, although he has
been tried for crimes in Rocks, Phil
lips and Osborne counties prior to
this time, He has always succeeded
in being declared not gutlty.-Stock-

For the past three years when the
republican papers of the country
wanted to tell how prosperous Hanna
had made the country they would
point to Wall Street and give US to
understand that when Wall Street is
prosperous the whole country is pros
porous. But somehow the rule doesn't
work both ways. We have been look
ing in vain for these same papers to
tell of the Wall Street panic and how
disastrous it has been to the country.

The fact that work on the appropria-

as an indication that the leaders do not
propose to retard the annual budgets, and
thus bring about an adjournment some
time in June. However, it is a little
premature to guess as to the length of

The point IS made by Senator CuIBerson
that the revitalization of this part OF

Britain equally responsible with the Unit
ed States for maintaining the neutrality
Of the canal.
The significance Of this criticism is
recognized by a number of Senators, and
it is feared by the Republican managers
that it may lead to the addition of an
amendment which will be unacceptable to
Great Britain. and result in further delay
to the project for canal construction.

there is little prospect Of vote on reti-
