TO THE MEMBERS OF THE
DEMOCRATIC COUNTY
CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

We call attention TO the fact that it
will soon be time for them TO be look
ing after the young men to be regis
tered in their respective districts. 1t
will likewise be time to see that all
men who have moved into their dis
tricts from other county districts are
seen after and arrangements MADE for
getting their transfers If there are
any Democrats in their districts who
have moved from other States they
must record their intention to become
& voter with the Clerk of the County
Court, else they will be unable to vote
even if they have been in the county
one year. These are duties which the
members of the committee are expected
to look after In some districts we are
glad to state that no more faithful
party workers can be found; in Others
the most shameful negligence is known
to exist, yet if there are any political
offices or favors to be given out, it not
infrequently happens that these are the
very first men to ask for them. Let
our work be well done this fall. 1t is
the preliminary fight for the great bat
tie next year. The chairman of the
Central Committee will keep a record
of the work done this fall.

Importance Of the Fight in
Maryland.

A dispatch to the Philadelphia
Record from Baltimore says:
Both parties are completing
preparations for the opening of
the Congressional campaign DC.
tober J. The greatest interest
centres in the struggle between
Senator McCOmaS and Senator
elect German to capture a ma
jority of the Congressional dele
gates.
To McComas the return of a
solid Republican delegation to
the House will mean the return
of his prestige, which came with
the Republican sweep two years
ago and which was seriously i'm
paired with the loss Of the Legis.
lature last year.
To German the capture of the
delegation, or even a respecta ole
portion of it, will mean as much
as will Senator McCOmas' victory.
Recent developments indicate
very strongly that German is in
the running for the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1904.
German will be considered in
New York as presidential pos
sibility if Hill fails to carry his
state this year. If therefore.
Hill fails in New York and Cor
man succeeds in Maryland, the
latters chances for the presiden
tial nomination will be increased

DEMOCRATIC State Headquarters are
now open at the Euiaw House, Balti-
more, with Hon. Murray Vandiver in
charge. The late registration in Balti-
more has been most satisfactory, the
Democrats seem determined to get out
their full vote this fall. With a full
vote, old Maryland will give good
account of her self with representatives
who will stand by the people and OPP
pose the Beef Trust, the Coal Trust and
other trusts which Cypress the people.

THE WAY TO END TRUSTS

The Democrats of Maryland must
realize the fact thai no victory can be
won without unceasing work. Men
who viii not take the trouble TO regis
Ter or see about their transfers can be
OF but little service 10 their party or TO
their country This is d time when
every man who really feel, that some
thing should be done to curb the rapid
growth of trusts, must show by his
acts that he j. in earnest To denounce
trusts and then 90 and vote for Il Re
publican Congressman Is absurd non
sense, As long a. We have q Republi-
can administration 81 lopg VIII Beef
Trusts and Coal Trusts flourish and
prosper in spite even Of the opposition
supposed TO be entertained by the
President The remedy is in d Demo-
cratic Congress send d Democratic
Congressman from this district and
there viii be one manly representative
who vii fearless " and honestly record
his opposition to these gigantic combi-
nations which are absorbing the very
life Of the nation and rendering the
people AFFECT slaves. The IDEA Of one
or two men having the absolute power
10 end or continue the present deplor-
able coal strike, Is sad commentary Of
our ooasted freedom and independence.
Tits the life Of the Republican party,
but it Is the death knell TO a free peo-
pie. To stop Coal and Beef Trusts

Col. McGraw's Fight for Con
greSS.

Hon. John McGraw, of Grafton,
West Va, the Democratic nomi-
nee for Congress in that district,
is busily engaged in organizing
his forces for determined effort
to capture the Republican strong
hold and lead his followers to a
glorious victory. There is no man
in the State who can be of greater
service to his people than Col.
McGraw. Few men are more ex-
tensively known and with his
great business interests in coal
fields. lumber lands and railroads.
he should make one OF the most
desirable representatives for his
rapidly growing State. His CON
stltuents can rest assured hat he
will gain for his district and for
his State as much as any man they
can send TO Congress. Such men
are sadly needed at this time. and
ii is hoped that Col. McGraw's
friends will organize in this old
time way and send him with a
rousing majority to Washington.

Indiana is Short.

In response to senate resolution
the civil service commission has sent
TO congress statement showing the
apportionment among the several
states and territories of persons now
employed in the classified service.
The law provides that the persons
within the classified service shall be
apportioned among the states and
territories on the basis of population.
The report shows that some of the
states and territories, notably Vir-
ginia, Maryland. the District ofColum-
bia, Nevada, New Hampshire and
Vermont have greatly exceeded their
quota.
Indiana is II per cent short of the
states proportionate share of men in
the service.
The commission says the abuse of
the law has sprung up because the
commissioners have no control over
transfers.

Death of Jesse Burket.

Jesse Burket, for many years a
prominent farmer of Tippecanoe town
ship, who was persuaded by his son to
sell his farm few years ago and in
doing so lost all the property he had,
died at the home of his da,,.hter in
Gault, Mo-, Feb. 20. Deceased was
one of the pioneers of Tippecanoe
township and resided 81 years on the
farm which he entered near Summit
Chapel. He died peEniless having
been for several months of last year
an inmate of the county house east of
Plymouth. His story is sad one and
shows that parents while living should
not give all their property to their
children.

A remarkably rich deposit of coal
has been discovered in st. Joseph
county. The tract is located six miles
northeast of Mlshawaka and already a
stock company, with capital of $780,
600, has been formed to develop the
coal industry. The product is of the
highest quality, and additional
shafts sunk show that the vein is
miles in length and of unknown depth.
The find was made in an accidental
manner by Farmer Afford. Chicago
and Indiana capitalists are attempt
ing to purchase adjoining lands.

New PARTY Launched.

The Referendum League of Chicago
announces the formation of a national
party for the promotion of the -initia-
tive and referendum in all the cities
of the United States. The new party
will be known as the National Non
partisan federation for majority rule.
George II. SHIRLEY, the organizer, will
travel from city TO city organizing re-
ferendum leagues. The aim will be to
secure the passage in each state of a
bill compelling municipalities to
recognize petitions signed by 5 per
of the voters IN order that the ques-
tion may be voted upon by the people.
The launcherS OF the new party are all
officers of the league.

An Open Letter.
TO THE SCHOOL BOARD OF THE CITY OF
PLYMOUTH.

TO THE SCHOOL BOARD OF THE CITY OF
PLYMOUTH.
GENTLEMAN:-In the last edition
of the Plymouth Democrat appeared
an open letter signed by DR.. G. R.
Reynolds. In it, your Honorable
Board was requested to terminate the
sreign of the present superintendent,
with the close Of his present contract"
if. after due investigation, you find
that the interests of the city schools
demand it.
While no longer a resident Of the
city of Plymouth; yet being an ad-
mirer of its most excellent public
schools, and grateful to the one man
whose efforts, almost unaided, have
brought them TO their present high
state Of efficiency; / wish to protest
against the action desired by DR.. Rey-
nolds. In this request am not moved
by any personal grievance or consid-
Grafton. / believe that i am CONVEX
SAINT with the true state OF the facts
underlying the yelled charges made
and am of the opinion that they are
not sufficient TO justify an investiga-
tion or worthy OF your consideration.
This letter is not written with the
knowledge or consent of Prot. Chase:
nor to antagonlze DR.. Reynolds per-
Sonally; but TO avert cruel thrust at
one who has given the best years Of
his life to the uplifting of the moral
and intellectual welfare of the chill
dren of the city of Plymouth and who
merits the heartfelt gratitude of all
interested in the welfare of Plymouth s
public schools. / believe he should
continue TO act as superintendent as
long as he feels physically able to bear
the burdens of that Office.
In this request / am satisfied /
voice the sentiments Of large major
ity of the former students of the
Plymouth schools and feel that their
opinions are worthy of your due con-
sideration.
Respectfully Yours,
z. j. MAYER.

ways and TO convert them to temper
ance. She is not a Carrie Nation
whirlwind and no bar furniture was
smashed Or liquors spilled, although
she wore conspicuously on Iher bosom

of her own composition at "just the

The Return Of Mrs. Lulu Tyler Gates.

The people of Plymouth will be
glad to welcome the return of Mrs.
Lulu Tyler Gates for another of her
truly great entertainments. In her
first appearance here Mrs. Gates
charmed her audience with her pleas
ing personality, her well modulated
voice, her graceful gestures, and her
truly artistic Interpretation. She will
be ably assisted in her entertainment
by the Mozart Club which will add
both charm and variety to the pro-
gram. This entertainment will be
given under the auspices of the
ministers of the city to reimburse
them for the financial loss they have
sustained in furnishing the lecture
course OF the season. The Lyceum
Bureau sends Mrs. Gates to them
without charge and the Mozart does
the same. The church should be
crowded for this unusual entertain
ment. Time, Thursday evening March
Is. Admission 25c, and 15c Tickets
on sale at Hess drug store.

Tend the Grass.

The foundation of farming is grass,
and in order to be successful the farm
er should never omit grass from his
rotation. A good sod TO turn under,
at least every four0years, will make
the farm more profitable, and will be
really worth to the farmer in the bene-
fits impaired to the soil more than the
value of the grass for hay or pasturage.
When putting in a grass crop in the
spring the careful preparation of the
soil should be the main object. An
application of fertilizer, to be harrow
ed in, will be worth more to the grass
than at any later stage. Get good
start and the grass Will take care of
itself.

A Big Price for Civilization.

The Kansas Indians in Oklahoma
are willing TO abandon tribal organiza-
tiOn for consideration. They want
per capita division of the land
reserve and the tribal fund, which
would give each man, woman and
child about 445 acres Of land and $500
in money. In addition TO this they
ask for exemption from taxation for
twenty-five years and special proyi-
sions for public school fund. They
demand pretty good price for adopt
irg civilized habits.

Are Without judicial Power.

Judge H. S. Biggs, Kosclusko cir
cult court, has rendered decision
which, should it receive affirmation by
the Indiana supreme court, will de-
prive about 700 town clerks through
out the state of all judicial power
conferred by an act approved by the
Indiana legislature February last.
Judge Biggs declares the legislature
has no judicial power, and therefore
cannot confer judicial power on others.
The section of the statue in question,
which gives judicial power to town
clerks equal TO that of justices of the
peace, is declared unconstitutional.

ing of a transalaskan railroad, which
will enable travellers TO 60 from San
Francisco To ST. Petersburg by rail in
twelve days in parlor cars, with no
more of a water voyage than thirty
mile transfer across Behring strait in
enormous steel lighters. This line
will be $50 miles length and will open
up one of the richest countries in the
world. 1t will connect on the Aslatic
side with the Russian transsiDeran
