An Inspiring Address Made by Judge
Madison at the Reforn1atory.

At the Reformatory Sunday. afternoon
Judge E. H. Madison gave an address
that was certainly worthy of any crowd
of young men whether in or out of in
stitution of that character To those
young fellows it was encouragement
calculated to inspire regret for the past
and hope for the future. Judge Madison
reviewed the lives of number of great
men that have been known to this coun
try, and described how each of them had
struggled upward through great difficult
ties. He offered words of encouragem Mt
to the inmates of the institution and as
sured them that if they determined to
make men of themselves that there were
still plenty of opportunities. The ad-
dress was one calculated to inspire conf
dence, and to inspire well a desire in
the hearts of the young men of the Re
formatory to live down the past aud con-
quer the future. Hutchinson News.

old creamery building Not cent of

good condition and is a credit to the en-

AT no time was it intended to lease the
park grounds, except the race track, to
the racing association. The city has no
means with which to improve the race
track. apd the necessary improvements

were to take hold of the matter. We be-

1t is the law that a mans life once
placed in jeopardy and acquitted he can
not again be tried for the same offense.
We do not for one moment believe from
the talk of private citizens or from the
comment in any newspaper that DIR. r.
E. Gray is in danger of personal harm
should he return to this city. But we do
believe that he will not be cordially re-
ceived by large majority of our people.
His conduct in the case for which he was
tried, we'll other matters. mark him
as a man to be avoided. A married man,
reputable physician, would not, as he
did, register under an assumed name and
take room with a woman not his wife.

zen by thinking people who desire to
stand on the side of moral law and de-
kcency.-Garden City Imprint

of a cian resolute of the truth of God,
and determined in the strength of Gods
grace to max that truth clear, to brush
away all fine-spun sophistries and half
truths by which the cunning sins of men
have hidden it, His sermons show evil
dence of acute logical power. They possess
enough of eloquence, poetry and original
ity to put him among the foremost men
of the day. To our mind his great sue
cess lies in the warm, sympathetic heart :;
in the we1I-disciplined mind of the true
christian; in his noble scorn of sin; in
his honest simplicity and singleness of
purpose; in the high and holy tone, as if,
though far off the perfect harmony of
for Christ and the truth as revealed in
Him. The reputation of the divers is
so wide spread that any commendation of
ours might seem superf1uous. We will
therefore say in nc lusion that
those who have not heard them should
not miss the opportunity The meetings

The Supreme court holds that Governor
Stanley has no authority to appoint
sheriffs under the biennial election law to
take the places of officers who have serv
ed two terms. The constitution says
that sheriff shall not hold office longer
than two terms in succession. According
to the Governors idea there was va
cancy in the office of every sheriff who
has served four years in succession, so he
made appointment for Montgomery
county to test his authority. The old
sheriff began quo warranto proceeding g
and the court Saturday passed upon the
case, holding that term of office meant
two years, and until the officers successor
is elected and qualified. A sheriff hold
ing his second term, therefore is allwed
to hold over until his successor is elected
this fall. Justices johnson and Green
dissented. Under this decision county
treasures will also hold over.
