On Wednesday evening of this
week occurred the marriage of Flora
NJ. Hillyard to Milford II. Haney, at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Allen Hill
yard, in Arcade township. Promptly
at o'clock Rev. Hageman spoke the
ceremony, and these two estimabIe
people began their journey of life to-
gether. The wedding was one of
those nice ~quiet home affairs, only
the members of the families being
present. The bride, Flora NJ, has
lived with her parents on their farm
a number of years, and during all
of these years has been adding to her
list of friends.
The groom, Milford II, son of Au-
gust Haney, also has lived these years
with his parents, and recently has
been preparing himself for a useful,
successful farmer and business man.
We are glad to have these young peo-
pie locate in their old community,
that we may enjoy more of their
bright faces and happy lives. We
hope that for their labors together
they may have plenty and happiness,
and that the handsome gifts given
may be tokens of the joy of their So
journ together.

Communicated

EDITOR HERALD-The Dispatch of
August %, 1901, reprinted the follow
ing item:
An exchange wants to know
what is to be done with
the surplus of money in the United
States treasury. Turn the democrats
to it, they never fail to use the sur
plus. In 1892 they found a full treas
ury, and in less than three years it
was empty and they issued 1852, 090,-
100 in bondS.-Sparta, n. @. News.
Now if my memory is not greatly at
fault, the above is very misleading;
untrue to characterize it by no harsh
er name; as matters of record will
bear out. I shall not enter into any
defense of the Cleveland administra-
lions, although l will say his first adj
ministration was fairly decent, but
his second was detestable. He was a
supple tool in the hands of the money
trust. He aided them everyway in
his power to perfect the trust and
thereby earned the infamy Of every
friend ofIhumanity and the struggling
masses. I believe at the same time
in the adage ''give the devil his due. j."
Now the fact is, the democrats were
not in control of the treasury in 1892,
it was the other fellows who were
holding the fort. 1t is well known
fact that during the first Cleveland
administration quite a nice surplus
had accumulated in the treasury; and
was causing some worry as to the best
method Of reducing it. Finally a
method suggested itself to the prolific
brains then in control, it was on this
wise; that the government should
purchase batch of bonds at a nice
premium and thus reduce the sur
plus, and, it is not in evidence that
the bondholders had any kick coming
on that method. I believe it is
matter of fact that the first Cleve-
land administration turned over a
nice surplus to the Harrison admins
tration and it is also a matter of
record that the Harrison adminiStra-
ton turned an almost empty treas
ury over to the second Cleveland adj
minStration. l believe it is also
fact that in anticipation of reelection
they were preparing for bond issue:
and were no doubt glad when they
were defeated, as it furnished them
an opportunity to, lay all the blame On
the democrats for the impending
crisis, and instead of meeting as they
Should have done the crisis that was
precipitated upon them by the free
coinage of silver, supplemented by
treasury notes, and thus avoided a
panic.
The democrats cOuldh ave made them
selves solid with the people if they
had pursued the proper course, but
they chose to cast their lot with the
money trust, and did their part in
knocking out silver, and the money
trust went to raiding the treasury;
and working the endless chain, and of
course a bad state of affairs resulted. !
OF course it was not a natural result,
it was made to order. There was
more money to the money trustin the
defeat of Harrison than there would
have been in his election; as a panic
is always the moneyed mans harvest.
There need be no worry over the re-
publicans turning any surplus over to
democrats, they can be depended on
to take care of that matter. They
are adopts in that line. They have
been known to engage in the purchase
of high priced bonds, all in the inter
estof the dear people. Then if some
