AN OLD ALABAMA LAW.
Statute Designed to Check Runaway
Marriages No Longer in Force.

A little before his marriage day, the
young man had reached a sorry pass.
Though he lived in New York, the
girl lived in Alabama. His own home
had been in Georgia, and three days
before his departure for the marriage
festival his Georgian lawyer sent an
urgent dispatch. The lawyers father
had been married to an Alabama girl,
too, and the lawyer remembered a
family tale of the bridegroom's sud-
denly having found it necessary to de-
posit with the authorities of his
brides state a $500 personal bond.
Now the young Georgian living in
New York had gathered together
some store Of cash as BELTS Benedick
in spe, but to the minutiae of inter-
state credit he had given scant con-
cern. In the town where his be-
trothed lived he knew no one Of sub
stance to supply the bond. Where
fore kilograms between him and the
Georgian lawyer multiplied until they
made astack some dozens deep. Hop
ing against hope, and still delinquent
in what he had been told his brides
state would require, he left disconso-
lately for the south, uncertain wheth-
er the invitations to the wedding
would not have to be recalled Once
in the old home, however, the jealous
attorney was able to say that he had
finally discovered that this particular
statute of the state of Alabama, de-
signed to check runaway marriages,
had long since been repealed.-N. Y.

The Philadelphia Bulletin doesn't take
kindly to the proposition of Col Henry
Wattersou that Arthur P. German, our
own Arthur, the shrewd, be doomed for
the national commander-in-ch of the
Democracy, and it might be remarked
"there are Others"
The Bulletin says the advice to make
German commandment chief "was ten
dered with characteristic fervor and i'm
petuosity by the journalistic warrior of
the Louisville Courier Journal, in state
ment which declares that German is a
chieftain of surprising wisdom and ex-
perience, who is worth dozen Hills or
a thousand Clevelands.' But there are no
indications that it has fallen on fertile
ground. The prominent journals of the
democratic party either ignore it alto
gether or give it merely a perfunctory
mention.
"Gorman's shrewdness as political
tactician is beyond dispute, and there is
general belief that his influence while he
was in the Senate, was useful in prevent
ing his party from doing some fool
ish things. But although he has sue
ceeded in getting himself reelected to the
upper branch of Congress, the fact re-
mains that his plans for carrying Mary
land this year went awry, and that two
thirds OF the Congressman just elected
from that State are republicans. This
result does not confer the prestige of
conspicuously successful leadership on
the Maryland man; and it is also to be
borne in mind that Germans past record
shows him to have had little sympathy
with that section of the democracy which
demands the abolition of the protective
principle in the United States tariff"

sI.oo YEAR, in ADVANCE.
Friday, Nov. Fl, 1902.

In line with the spirit of progress which
is pervading the metropolis of the Fifth
district, the Cecil Star thinks the name OF
the town should be changed from North
East to one that means something, one
that twill give local significance and
individuality to the town which the mean
ingless name that has burdened the place
for two centuries has utterly failed to do "
The name as applied to the river upon
the banks of which the town is builded,
is also objected to and the suggestion
made that the one be changed to Shan
non, borrowed from the "auld" country,
and the other to Shawnah, from the tribe
of red men who formerly dwelt and hunt
ed in the locality and fished in the waters.

The Best Remedy For Group.

From the Atchison, Kan Daily Globe.l
This is the season when the woman who
knows the best remedies for Group is in
demand in every neighborhood. One of
the most terrible things in the world is to
be awakened in the middle of the night
by whoop from one of the children.
The Group remedies are almost as sure to
be lost, in case of Group, as revolver is
sure to be lost in case of burglars. There
used to be an oldfashioned remedy for
Group, known as hive syrup and tolu, but
some modern mothers say that Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is better, and does
not cost so much. 1t causes the patient
to ''throw up the phlegm" quicker, and
gives relief in shorter time. Give this
remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap'
pears and it will prevent the attack. II

The farmers of the upper part of New
Castle County are agitatiug the good roads
question and preparing to hold meeting
early in December for the discussion of
plans for improving their highways. 1t
is suggested by number of them that
the male inmates of the workhouse be
put 10 work OH the roads and thereby
help to defray the cost of their support in
that institution.
The good roads movement in Cecil,
which was SO enthusiastically doomed by
our farmers and others last spriug, ap-
pears to have been lost in the shuttle,
and fallen f1at-smothered, the Democrat
declares, owing to too much politics. In
its issue of last week the Democrat has
the following to say concerning the ques-
ton and the influence the political ma
chine has had upon it i'll the county:
1--WE had last spring spontaneous and
wide spread demand for better roads from
our intelligent and progressive tax payers.
The machine took charge of the move
1nent, and has smothered it. The only
result is the appointment of certain Road
Supervisors, and nothing has been ac-
complished. If we want better roads and
an administration of our affairs respon-
sive to public opinion then we must re-
solve to smash the machine"

The officials of the Navy Department
are greatly interested in the reports being
received of the effectiveness of the new
torpedo boat, the Adder. According to
these reports the Adder made run Of
two miles in one direction, turned with
the greatest celebrity and returned to the
starting point, and Immediately on its
arrival there fired torpedo which came
within ten feet of the small target. All
this was done under water and in an
incredibly short space of time. While
running at high rate of speed there was
no indication ON the surface of the water,
so that an enemy's vessel would have had
actually no warning of the approach and
could not possibly have attempted any
retaliatory measure until the vessel wa:
entirely out of sight and reach.

That there will be no trust legislation is

That there will be no trust legislation is
not SO sure. Some of the prominent
financiers of the country are becoming
alarmed at the situation. What they re-
gard as especially dangerous to the finan-
cial stability of the country is the organ
ization of trusts and the floating of trust
stocks based on information which is
neither comprehensive nor reliable The
market today, they say. might be utterly
routed by the breaking of few indus
trial corporations. and it is impossible to
secure any definite information in regard
to many whose stocks are daily bought
and sold on the market This line of
argument is in entire accordance with the
message sent to Congress last year by the
President, and it is regarded as more than
possible that some enactment forcing
pu 'licity on the so called trusts will be
placed on the statutes at the coming
session.

According to a headline of an item
in last weeks Grant County News,
women have right at poles. The
gentleman who called our attention to
this head line remarked that that fact
has never yet been disputed since Eve
tempted Adam with the apple core.
There were not as many different kinds
of poles at that time as we have now.
If that headline had appeared in the
sEden Daily News" it would have been
easily understood, for the early history
of the world failed to mention that at
the expulsion of Adam and Eve from
the Garden Of Eden there were any
telegraph poles, telephone poles, cleo
trio light poles, bean poles. hop poles,
hoop poles, or flag or fish poles any
where in the neighborhood.

The Platteville News a few months
ago was an avowed Democratic paper,
an fact the only newspapers in the
county that publicly avowed it's allegi-
ance to the Democratic party. But
the La Toilette campaign opened, and
10! sudden change took place. Bro.
Dugdale abandoned his former coat
and donned the striped La Toilette
sweater. 1t is wonderful how sudden
ly these changes took place. Now, it
he mad changed to the other Republi-
can side of the party, the Free Press
and The Teller and other half breed
organs would have howled themselves
ahoarse and filled their columns with
just such stuff as Bro. Dugdale SO forgot
himself to publish in the last issue of
his paper. He would have been charged
with having been bought up by the
Stalwarts. No charge is made here
that the Platteville News was brought
up by the La Toilette crowd, but Dug
dale's evolution is certainly remark
able. He charges the Stalwarts and
their leaders with being "rancorcus,
hypocritical, mischief breeding, fault
finders, intriguing and disrupting.''
Thus it always has been with new con-
werts. Dugdale must have feared. ?
