New Use for Refined Paraffine Wax.

A new and important use for Refined
Paraffine Wax seems to have been dis
covered by a prominent resident of
Ohio, living near Lancaster, who had
two trees badly damaged by storm one
being maple and the other an apple,
In each case large limb was broken
down from the trunk, but still attached
to it. The limbs were propped up and
fastened securely with straps, very
much as broken leg might be fasten
ed with splints, and then melted re-
fined was poured into and over all the
cracks. The Surgical operation" was
entirely successful. The Paraffine
prevented the escape of the sap, kept
out the rain and moisture which would
have rotted the trees, prevented the
depredations of insects, and the limbs
seem thus far to be perfectly re attach
ed to the trees.

False
Economy!

Do not practice false economy
in the purchase of Spectacles
or Eyeglasses. If a prescrip-
tion be taken to a druggist TO
be filed, it is not handed in with
the req uest that the cheapest
drugs may be used. although
perhaps, the medicine required
is for a trivial ailment only.
: Why, then, should SO slight an
estimate be placed upon the
most precious of all the senses,
that those who can and do af-
ford extravagances in useless
or at least unnecessary Injuries
should begrudge paying a fair
price for an article at once so
essential to comfort and wei
fare ? The complete satisfac-
tion and comfort given by our
made to- order glasses are maxi
ing our Optical Department
daily more popuier.

Senator VIM. E. Mason of Illinois
made an address in South Bend Mon
day night at the Auditorium, speak
ing to large audience. Contrary to
expectations he did not make any ref
erence to his canvass in Illinois, but
spoke for the party in Indiana. Re-
ferring TO trusts the senator said:
81 believe that this nation never
intended to bind itself to the consti-
tuition so that it could not take care
Of itself. The question Of trusts is in
deed a great one, and we have man
today who is not afraid to take up
the question and study it 10 capable
manner. Roosevelt showed his posi-
tion when he took up the coal strike
and il congress follows the suggestion
OF the president there is hope that
trusts will not ruin this country of
ours. Congress has the power to reg
ulate trusts, an ID will do So"

Necessity of Combinations.

We unite men in labor unions be-
cause they are then combining their
mental and social forces for better in
dlvidual development. We protect
them by law and give them legal foot
ing.
We combine men of brains with in
ert capital, with machinery and with
labor and we call them industrial
combinations. We authorize them by
law because we see their necessity and
recognize their value,
The democratic theory is in brief
to prevent capitalistic combinations
and destroy those that already exist.
Because bad results follow some of
them all must be obiterated.
We protect the inventor, and we
encourage the introduction OF the
machine. Yet these machines some
times kill. So we make laws to
govern their use, compel the employer
to put safeguards about them, but do
not compel him to smash the ma
chloe. That would be destruction.
We make combinations to regulate
governments, but because some Of the
acts of government are not to our
liking we do not decry all government
and seek TO destroy it. That is an
archy.
We make rules to govern labor
unions, but we do not destroy them
because some of them go away from
their principles. That would be un-
just.
We should make laws to correct the
evils of combinations, but not To de-
stroy them. They are as necessary as
the atmosphere. in modern methods
and like the atmosphere, need purify
ing, but not obliteration. Elkhart

Senator BeyeridQe.

Senator Beveridge who will speak
in this city Monday, Oct. q, in the
afternoon. is one of the finest orators
in America and all of his meetings
this year have been largely attended,
but there have been no noisy demon
strations. One strong point in the
senator's speeches is that while he
presents MS own cause clearly and
forcibiy he does not waste any time
in abusing his opponents. For that
reason many democrats attend his
meetings, and if they go away to vote
the democratic ticket they carry with
them a respect for the man who can
discuss issues without assailing the
men who oppose him. 1t is feature
in political speaking which all speak
ers can adopt to the advantage of the
cause they represent.

DO NOT TRADE YOUR VOTE.

While the democratic party has a
large majority in this county some of
the democratic candidates fear defeat
and they have found some republicans
who are foolish enough to think that
the republican congressman is in dan
ger of being defeated.
These democratic candidates believe
that there is no possibility of the cleo
tion of a democratic congressman and
they propose that their friends shall
vote for Mr.. Brick in return for votes
for democratic candidates in Marshall
county.
No republican should be caught by
this scheme. Let every republican
stand by his county ticket. No bet
ter ticket was ever presented to the
voters of Marshall county than the
present republican ticket. Every
man is a gentleman, honest, moral,
industrious, capable. Almost every
man of them vas born in Marshall
county and all Of them have achieved
success by honest toll. 1t is ticket
of which every voter should be proud
and not one of them should be traded.
This congressional district has a re-
publican majority of $500 voters.
The only democratic counties in the
district are Marshall and Pulaski.
Kosciusko county's republican MAORI
ty is larger than the combined demo-
cratic majorities of Marshall and
Pulaski counties. consequently demo-
Gratis cannot expect 10 reach Elkhart
and st. Joseph counties more than
even. These two counties gave the
republican candidate for congress over
?, 400 majority two years ago. They
are his home counties the counties
that refuse to divide their votes for
the candidates of any other county
and IN convention stand solidly for
Mr.. Brick. They have majority of
all the votes in the district and can
nominate whom they please and elect
whom they want.
If the republican candidate cannot
carry those counties there is not a re-
publican in Indiana who would want
him elected.
Marshall county democrats under
stand the situation and republicans
should make no trades against any
man on their county ticket.

JOHN R. JONES FOR CLERK.

The independent Democrat has an
article on John R. Jones the demo-
cratic nominee for county clerk.
The article is made up from the let
ter that Mr.. Jones sent out to demo-
Gratis when he was asking for the
nominations: but the Democrat omits
a part of that letter which was sign
ed by Mr.. Jones as follows:
! will say to the democrats of Mar
shall county that l think that / am
not asking too much in seeking this
nomination over the present incum-
bent, who has been in the court house
practically all his life and who said
four years ago in his canvass, after a
twelve year deputyship, if the voters
would give him one term OF the Office
proper TO wind up his career in the
court house he would feel satisfied.
Now, the voters came To his rescue
and gave him the office proper. But
it seems Mr.. Brook has had a change
of mind and is sending out letters set
ting up the plea that be is not asking
anything unreasonable or unusual
to ask the democrats to place him
back in office for another four years?
Now dear voter, while this not any
thing unusual, for l cannot remem-
Der when the Brooks regime in the
court house began, does it not occur
that it is unreasonable after a family
reign of over 80 years. and have re-
ceived for such services the sum of
$50, $4,000 / am sure the party can
not possibly extend this courtesy to
each democrat who is worthy of recog-
milton.
Jones evidently thinks that demo.
ocratic office holders make an i'm.
mense amount Of money, and init
mates that he will be satisfied with a
little less than $50, 900 for the Jones
family.
The voters should elect Foster
Groves county clerk. He is the right
man for the place.

The Wealth Of George Washington.

Whether Washington can be put in
to the envied category of millionaires
no one can assert positively. Accord
ing to the late Paul Leicester Ford,
whose work ''The True George Wash
ington," has received wide recogni-
ton, ''the father of his country, "
when he died, was worth $3.50, 900.
This fortune did not include his wife IS
property, but. nevertheless, it made
him one of the wealthieSt Americans
of his time, Ford adds: land it is to
be questioned If a fortune was ever
more honestly acquired or more thor.
oughly deserved"
John Adams, however, probably
would have differed with Ford on this
point, had the two ever come together.
In one of his recurrent moods of Bit
teruess and jealousy toward Washing
ton Adams asked. would Washing
tOu CSCI udNc Uctu COUlIIld0ueT OI Tie
revolutionary army or president of
the United States if he had not mar
ried the rich widow of Mr.. Custis?"
According to Mr.. Ford ir seems that
he would, for he had achieved colonial
military fame before his marriage.
That the widow CustiS was a deSlra.
BILE ''partie" is not to be denied, how
ever. as her part of the Custis proper
ty equaled $4,000 acres of land, a
good part of it adjoining the city OF
Williamsburg: several lots in the said
city; between 200 and 800 negroes,
and about $4,000 or slO, 900 upon
bond" estimated at the time at about
s20,0O0 in all. This property was
further increased ON the death OF
Patsy Custis in 1773 by half of her
estate

Treasurer's Letter to 1axpayers.

Treasurer O'Keefe has sent out a
letter TO the Taxpayers Of Marshall
county in which he says: 1.-The sal
AIRY of the county treasurer is fixed by
law and the interest any treasurer re-
ceives on the peoples money from
banks of deposit belong to the people
and not to the treasurer.
This statement is correct. There is
no law on the statute books that gives
the treasurer the right TO keep inter
est. Every paper in Indiana, repub-
lican, democratic and independent,
that has taken the trouble to look up
the law has called attention to this
fact.
The first papers which called at
tention to this law so far as we observ-
ed, were the Elkhart Review and the
Goshen Times, both republican papers.
These papers declared several months
ago that no Elkhart county treasurer
had been allowed, any interest since
the retirement Of Holderman, who
was a defaulter.
Treasurer O'Keefe is simply comply
ing with the law in turning interest
on deposits into the county treasury.
Every man who is elected treasurer
takes an oath to obey the laws gov
erning his Office. If Mr.. Wink and
other predecessors Of Mr.. O'Keefe vio-
lated the law and fieeced the people of
Marshall county, their successors will
not be allowed to do so. Treasures
in most of the counties of Indiana de-
clare that they receive no interest on
deposits.
The writer OF this article has for
more than twenty years called atten-
tion to the fact that heavy tax levies
were made in the interest of county
officers: and for years we were roundly
abused for making such statements,
but we have the satisfaction of know
ing that our persistent hammering has
prevented many big steals and reduc-
ed the perquisites of county officers
and changers on" thousands OF dol
lars annually, and it is refreshing to
have democratic county officer In
dorsing our position.
Mr.. O,Keefe has only done his duty
done what be Is sworn to do.

Liquor Dealers Oppose Intemperance.

The National Association of Liquor
Dealers closed their session at WASH
ington last Saturday night and adopt
ed the resolution declaring it to be
the sense of the association that while
they are uncompromisingly hostile to
the theory of making men either yir-
tuous or temperate by legislation, they
are not opposed to temperance or to
proper means tc prevent the immod-
crate use of intoxicating liquors. 1--WE
recognize the weakness of human ma
ture, /" the resolution states, land are
as ready as the readiest to lend our in
fiuence and efforts to the reform of
the drankard and to the curtailment
of the evil resulting from excessive in
diligence. This certainly shows that
the temperance cause is making pro-
gress.

Great is the Hoosier Hen.

Indiana talks great deal about
her Bedford Stone production and the
wealth of her glass industry. The In
diana chicken, through the summer
months alone, distributes as much
money in the state as all these Indus
tries combined. The Irish and sweet
potato. and half dozen of the cereal
crops combined, fall far short in value
Of her production.
According to the figures compiled
by the government, the value of eggs
and poultry grown in Indiana last
year was SIS, 900, 900. OF that amount
it was estimated that the egg crop
was worth 1892, 2l5. According to
the chicken census Indiana is credited
with . population Of IL, los, O06 fowls.
