For the Good Of the Party.

The campaign in Vermont is being
watched with good deal of interest.
The vast republican plurality in that
state is threatened with division, but
even that it can stand, and win out
over the democrats. The republican
received AZ, AL votes of 67,-
O99 in 1900, so the republicans can
divide into two parties, either CT
which will be larger than the demo-
cratic. But there is an issue that
causes interest beyond the possibility
of democratic success. Clement, the
boiling republican candidate, stands
for high license and local option. The
regular republican wing. headed by
Mccullough, adopted similar plank,
and the issue really is the charge Of
Clement that corruption has disgraced
the party and the campaign. In a
state where the preponderance Of
votes is so large as In Vermont it
would be rather surprising than other.

come corrupt after a time, and the is

Bourbon Drinks Were too Strong.

Charles Reddinger, resident Of
Walnut township, who has for thirty
years been in the haoit of filling up on
the mild drinks dispensed at Argos
and Walnut went to Bourbon July %.
The first drink he took in that town
deprived him of his senses, and he be-
gan to smash things generally with
out knowing or caring what he was
doing. Deputy Prosecutor Chaplin
drew up complaint against him, but
before it was filed with Squire Devore,
Reddinger went before Squire Cham
berlain, entered plea of guilty and
was fined $500. The prosecuting at
torney wanted his $500 and refused
to release him. He was taken before
Squire Devore, where he asked for a
change of venue to Molter's court in
Plymouth. Squire Molter tried the
case Tuesday and assessed a fine of
s1.O0 and costs, the costs being about
fifteen times as much as the fine.
Reddlnger will be careful as to what
he drinks when he visits Bourbon
again.

A correspondent or the New York
Sun objects to the following words
and phrases: local baron ""iron king"
steel magnate," ''smart," as applied
to women, society, etc., "thiS closed
the incident, "billion-dollar trusts"
weekend" loot" community Of
interest" strenuous life, " summer
girl, sit is said, SHIELD up" ''ten-
tative" and captain of industry"
His objection to these lOcutionS is, not
that they are in themselves wrong or
inelegant, but that they ''have be-
come absolutely nauSeating. Yet,
as the Sun points out, its cOrrespOn-
dent in this very letter uses ''cons-
tant reader" valuable paper, :"
"penny-a-liners" and sgray mat
ter" Thus 1T would seem that
his list might be somewhat extended
by adding to it expressions which he
himself uses and which have "become
absolutely nauseating. But is. this
test OF nausea altogether satisfactory I?
Some men, as is well known, are made
deathly sick by strawberries. Shall
the rest of us, therefore, eat no more
strawberries? Again, the normal man
is made sick unto death by a small
dose Of morphine, while there are
those who can consume large quanti-
ties of 1t without any Immediately ia
tai effect. Plainly some other test is
necessary.
This question of words is peculiar.
Men Iare governed here 0largely by
their prejudices. We know of an ex-
cellent gentleman who has an abso-
lutely unconquerable aversion to the
good old word moreover. Yet in
the Bible we have "Moreover, it is re-
quired in stewards, etc., land more
over because the Preacher was," etc.
The case is clearly one of prejudice,
and would doubtless be admitted to be
be such by the enemy of moreover. "
The truth is that all words become
dIstasteful when they are overworked,
and it is an exceedingly difficult mat
ter for a man who is forced to write
steadily day after day. sometimes un-
der great pressure, always to avoid
over working words. One tends to
fall into certain set forms. The ten
dency should be resisted, but the vic
tim TO it should be leniently judged.
Formulas sometimes almost force
themselves on the writer, SO that it
requires considerab courage and self
denial to put them from him.-In-

Sixty.Six Years AGO.

Daniel Mcdonald, late editor of the
Plymouth Democrat, who early in the
spring erected ''shanty," as he calls
it, on his property on the south end
of the lake. Saturday, celebrated the
Sixty-Sixth anniversary Of his first
sight of the beautiful Maxinkuckee. I"
With his parents and many others he
arrived in the woods mile east of
the lake, near where the residence of
the late d. r. Voreis is now located,
July Goth 1885. The caravan came
from Fayette county, Indiana, in
wagons drawn by oxen, camping at
night by the way, the young men of
the party with rifles going ahead and
killing game, of which there was an
abundance, for food. The caravan
left the Michigan road at the Tip
pecanoe river. on the morning of
July 26th. following the Aubenaube
trail to the northwest, coming in
sight of the LAKE. on the hill in the
Cromley neighborhood, just as the
glorious sun was making golden set.
An enthusiastic hurrah went up from
the entire party, as it was to them as
the poet has so we'll expressed it.:
"a scene for painter,
A cleaning and glorfied lake,
With its boldness and grandeur of
head, line,
And its etchings of thicket and
brake"
And further because it marked the
end Of a wearisome journey of thir-
teen days, over roads, much of which
had to be made as they went into a
new country, nearly all of whose in
habitants were Pottawatomie Indians.
When Mr.. Mcdonald came TO the
lake it wrs in it its primitive state.
The civilization of the white man had
not reached it yet. The forest trees
and Shrubbery had not been disturbed,
the woodman's axe had not been laid
at the base of a tree, everything was
just as the Creator had made it. All
kinds of fish in abundance swan In
the sparkling water unmolested by
tho nrofocSional fcharunan NJ thoco
days, and the woods were literally full
OF all kinds Of wild animals and fowls
Of every kind and description. In
those days it was not an uncommon
occurrence to see half dozen wild
deer come down out of the woods and
lave their thirst and swim around in
the clear limpid water in the summer
to cool off and drive away the flies

The Well Spent Life.

Russell Sage celebrated his Seth
birthday recently by putting in a full
day at his office. He enjoys work
now just as ever and life is great
satisfaction to him. 1t matters not
what mons position may be, wheth-
er he is rich or poor, weak or strong,
he should have some kind of useful
employment and keep at it as long as
he is able to breathe and then he will
get the most out of his earthly exist
ence. The ones who have the most
trouble, who have the most ills and
feel the weight of life as heavy

Geese That Lay Golden Eggs.

Once upon time there was a pro-
moter who owned common, every
day goose who laid the usual, ordi-
nary goose eggs. He conceived the
scheme of syndicating the goose on a
gold egg basis and proceeded to do so.
He informed the trusting public
that soon his goose would lay an egg
of gold each day and offered for sale
stock in the Golden Goose Egg COM
pany, limited, at bedrock prices.
There was wild rush for the stock.
and the promoter suddenly found him.
self wealthy.
He continued to sell the stock as
long as there we're buyers, for he did
not want to kill the goose that laid
the egg. His goose continued the
same Ordinary fowl as before.

July Weather Record.

There were no extremes of temper
allure during July, 1902. The maxi
mum was 81 degrees, on the 18th, and
there were only four days on which it
reached 90. The same month last
year had % days of 80 or above, Al
degrees, on the first day, was the
minimum. The mean temperature,
1875 degrees, is one degree below the
normal. The precipitation was 4.16
inches, which is Ito inches above the
average, and was distributed through
the month SO as to seriously interfere
with haying and oat harvest. There
were several severe wind and hail
storms In localities which damaged
growing crops, orchards and timber.

Senator Mark Hanna was invited by
the trades council at Muncie to de-
liver the Labor Day speech in that
busy Indiana Industrial center. The
senator has written aletter expressing
regret on account Of bis inability to

the efforts / am making are apprecia-
ted by organized labor. 1t is q great
work, but Of course we cannot accom-
plish everything at once. BY further
work hope in the end that capital
and labor may be brought into re-
lationship which will be fer their mu-
tual benefit. The laboring men OF the

The Jaeoby.Ray Reunion.

One hundred and fifty relatives, and
old settlers attended the picnic and

there was enough for all and many
baskets full left.'
John Jacoby was heartily congrat-
ulated on having attained his SOth
birthday, and his estimable wife on
her restored health and over 50 years
of married life all of which has been
spent on the farm where the reunions
have been held for the past two years.
In the afternoon there was an hour
Of social intercourse, -intermingling
of relatives, friends and old settlers.
Then came speeches by Hon. G. H.
Reeve, J. F. Langenbaugh. H. G..

cences and anecdotes of the early
settlement of the county, and an ap-
propriate address by Rev. 1. Rothen-
berger, of South Bend. who was for
many years pastor of the Reformed
church in Plymouth.
The exercises were cut short by a
shower of rain about O'Clock p. m,
but the crowd retired to their homes
feeling that they had enjoyed full
day OF pleasure.

Crops of all kinds are assured in
abundance for the growing sea.on now
nearing an end in Nebraska. Wheat,
although damaged in quality by the
unusual rainfall, is the heaviest crop
in the history of the state. Oats will
yield heavily, which condition like
wise pertains to hay, alfalfa, pota-
toes and all the products of the or
chard and garden. Meanwhile corn,
Nebraska's staple product, has been
making slow but steady growth, I'M
til now it is past the danger point,
and a yield fairly prodigious is GER
tain. The acreage is less than in
former years, because Of the increased
propagation of winter wheat, but the
condition of the crop is so fiattering
that experts are freely predicting that
the fall harvest will nearly top the
best record for corn ever scored by the
state.

Type Writers Everywhere.

A recent census bulletin gives some
figures concerning the manufacture of
type writing machines which give the
Impression that the demand has been
sufficient to supply every family in the
United States with one, to say moth
ing Of foreign lands. AS a matter Of
fact, however. the typewriter has not
made its way into household use
to the extent that was predicted some
years ago. In business circles. on the
other hand, its use is so universal that
reliance upon the pen IN Office or shop
where much writing or correspond
ence is done is the exception rather
than the rule.

The Girl From Three Oaks.
The Chicago Tribune this week cor
taipo6 tho follouipn.

The Chicago Tribune this week con-
tanned the following:
A man who carried raised UNI
brella with white ribbon streaming
from the handle attracted attention
in the Dearborn station Yesterday
morning. Waiting passengers won
dered where the attendant was. Final
ly policeman accosted the fellow.
"What are you doing with that UNI
brella raised" he demanded.
"Waitin' fer her," the stranger
said. I'm goin' to be married, IAN
my bride is comm.
The stranger drew photograph of
handsome girl from his pocket.
"I'm from Brown county. Indiana, !"
he explained, ''and I'm tired of sin
gle blessedness. 1 put an advertise
ment in matrimonial paper and Sue
Johnson, who lives at Three Oaks,
Mich, answered it. This is a picture
of sue. l tell you l worked it slick.
/ sent her picture of the best look
ing man in our county and told her it
was me. Well, we got engaged and
and agreed to meet here in Chicago.
We selected this here depot as good
place, but as we had never seen each
other we arranged this umbrella bust
ness. Sue will carry one, too"
Fifteen minutes later the police
man saw two umbrellas with white
streamers attached bearing toward
one another. He watched them I'M
til they were within ten feet OF one
another, and then both halted. The
girl was extremely plain, and the
countryman was not the only one who
had been fooled.
simultaneously two right hands
moved upwards, and a moment later
two umbrellas were closed. The man
turned to the left and the woman to
the right and not word was said.
That was all.
