The Rochester Sentinel says: "Con.
gresham Brick has surprised republi.
can leaders here and about all Of the
patrons of the Akron postoffice by an.
nOuDcing his intention of recommend
ing the appointment of S. n. Shesler,
of the Akron News, to succeed John
Gsrwood as postmaster at Akron. Mr..
Gsrwood had the party leaders on his
side, the patrons of the Akron office
regarded him as one of the very best
postmasters the town ever had and they
wanted him continued in office.
"But Gsrwood was a Royse man in
the convention where Brick received
his first nomination and Shesler was
for Brick. Therefore Brick is not only
rewsrding friend but it is said he is
laying plans for true blue Brick ma
chine throughout the district and he
will have Shesler at the head of the
Akron Brickites."
This, when considered in connection
with Bricks turn-down of Royse sp-
pointees at other places will not be
good news to Postmaster Conger and
his friends.

Plymouth. Ind, Apr. II, 1901 SLOW
Marshall County independent., 1901-05-10

There Is every reason to believe that
Plymouth is at the dawn of q prosper
ity that will eclipse any city in north
ern Indiana. In spite of the mis-
fortune which befell Plymouth when
the Novelty works went into the trust,
wo have more than hold our own, and
II 90 many people are brought back as
left after that factory closed, we will
need many more homes to accommodate
them. Tho chances of the Novelty
works passing to some concerns that
will operate it are excellent. Many
manufacturers have been here and in
vestigated the plant and machinery and
there can be no doubt, but all inquirere
look upon the property as valuable. IL
could not be more sdvsntageously To-
Gated, situated as IL is in city favored
BY three railways and of easy access to
Chicago. Let us hope that 1t may be
sold to some concern that will operate
the plant. Ii two or three hundred
people can be brought here and regu-
larry employed, Plymouth with its other
well established institutions, will be as
prosperous 90 we could wish.

Plymouth is $4,000 year. That is
twice or three times as much as the to-
tai cost of our municipal government
and public schools combined
The second purpose is to secure the
best possible temperance legislation by
the election Of temperance men to
office. Without regard to party affilis-
tions let temperance voters work for
the election of temperance men, just as
the liquor league works for the election
of the men who favor their business
In this way force all parties to nomin-
ate good men.
The third object is to secure the en-
forcement of laws already enacted, by
assisting in every possible way the
officials who are willing to do their
sworn duty and by bringing pressure
to bear upon the dereict officers who
wink at law violations.

Majority Want COnger.

1t Is fact that Postmaster CongeI
has quietly secured the endorsement OF
more than half of the republicans who
patronize the Plymouth p0stoffice and
the stack of recommendations in his
behalf which have been placed before
Congressman Brick has caused that
gentleman to hesitate. He don't want
to resppoint Eir. Congsr, but the pre-
ponderance of sentiment is 40 over
whelming in his favor that Mr.. Brick
fears to defy public sentiment. Old
line citizens who ordinarily take
no part in politics have interested
themselves sufficient to go to South
Bend and urge the reappointment of
Mr.. Conger. On the other side is the
political machine headed by Chairman
Skunk that is determined at all hazards
that COnger shall not be resppointed.
1t seems to be contest between the
public and the republican machine.
Mr.. Brick may turn down the machine,
but 1T Is not likely. 1t is more reason
able that he will decide to turn down
all applicants and select someone other
than the announced candidates.

May "A Holy Month.

In all the Catholic churches continu.
ing throughout the month of May
devotions to the Virgin Mary will be
offered.
The custom of addressing public
prayer to the Blessed Virgin, decking
her altar in the church with flowers
and singing hymns in her honor has
been 10 vogue among Catholics since
the twelfth century. Pope Plus VII,
granted an indulgence of 300 days to
those who practiced this devotion and
a plensry indulgence on condition of
confession, communion and prayer Tor
the intentions of the prayer for the in
tentions of the Pope. In the Catholic
calendar May is regarded ss the most
beautiful month of the year and chiefly
for this reason it was given over to
Mary, whom the Roman Catholics call
the Queen Of Heaven"

It seems that another good man has ing only his remembrance behind hin. to sGlace small army of creditors. H. ". Robinson is the name of tie latest offender in this respect, and his business was that of dealer in horses end mules. He conducted d feed stable on Fourth avenue, near Pine stret and also managed the old Frank Williams hotel.
 lie was last seen here about two weeks ago. The heaviest loser by his depalture is Mr A. l.. McNulty. Robinson owed him about $900 Mr. MeNulty says that Robinson bought of him furniture for his hotel, the bill aggregating almost that amount He sold the furniture before he left town, and it has never been paid for. If it is possible to recover this furniture the loss will not be heavy. MT. Me Nulty is doubtful if it can be recov- cred. Dr. Hankinson is loser in the sum of about $S5, and one or two groeerymen are large losers.
 Robinson has been around Pine Bluff for about five years. His credit has always been first class, and he had many friends. It is thought that the local pool rooms, of which he was an inveterate freqUenter, are largely responsible for his present condition It is understood that some of his cred itors will make efforts to apprehend him. He is thought to be at present in Louisiana.
