Lively at the Age of 100.

A special from Niles. Michigan, says
George Ollie, of Carthage, N. Y, who
is visiting his grand daughter, Mrs.
John Wright, at Niles, is one of the
most wonderful men in the world, If
for nothing else than that he is at loo
years old as lively as kitten and as
happy as boy of IL. He never wore
glasses, he reads omniverously, he
quotes Shakespeare with dramatic in
tensity and feels it too; he has never
had rheumatism, walks without a
cane and saws wood the year round.
Mr.. Ollie is a native of England, but
is now qnite accustomed TO this coun-
try, having lived here for trifie of
eighty years.

Our democratic friends seem to be
considerably pertube1 because under
the apportionment act passed by the
last general assembly, the next legis-
lature is pretty sure to be republican.
1t would be a pretty dificalt matter to
devise any ether result, but it will be
remembered that the last Legislative
apportionment devised by Indiana
democratic leadership made Mr.. Tur-
pie senator when Indiana had gone
more than 10000 republican at the
preceding election.

Farmers Joyful.

few days have been most gratefully
received by the tillers of the soil in
this region. and they have been of vast
benefit for. previous to their arrival
the oats crop was suffering to some
extent as was clover, on clay soil.
The rains, while coming in showers
only, have been quite general through
out the West, though in many places
considerable damage has been done
by the high winds that accompanied
them as well as the floods which in
some instances followed them south
and west.

A Chicaaoan Spoiled.

A Chicago man ought not to be al
lowed to live in any other city. 1t
spOils him for life in Chicago. Here
is Lyman ]. Gage, ex-secretary of the
treasury, complaing that the compsr-
ison between The Illinois metropolis
and New York, Washington and other
eastern cities is painful. He lived
happily for forty years in Chicago
without ever finding out that it was
dirty, but few years in Washington
have been like the fatal apple that
gave Adam the knowledge of good
and evil. Mr.. Gage knows dust and
smoke now when he sees them, and he
is unpatriotically critical. He even
goes so far as to intimate that they
ought to be suppresced.-New York

Some of our largest steamships are
being placed on the Pacific Ocean.
The acquisition Of Hawaii and the
Philippines has had much to DO with
the trade carried on the Pacific. The
new steamship Minnesota which was
recently launched at New London.
Connecticut, is destined to run be-
tween Seattle and the Orient, by way
of Honolulu. This and her sister ship
will only be exceeded In size by Cedric
and Celtic of the White Star Line.
These vessels are $50 feet long and
have displacement of $1,000 tons.
They have speed of IA knots an
hour. The distance from Seattle to
Yokohama is $500 miles, which will
require about Is days to make the
trip.

AUDITOR CANNOT VOTE.
An Opinion Involving the Election Of
County Superintendent.

Attorney General Chas. w. Miller,
Monday afternoon gave an opinion
bearing on the elections of county
school superintendent, which will
be held in the ninety-two counties OF
the state next Monday.
The ruling was in answer to a ques.
tion by Superintendent of Public In.
struction F. A. Cotton. The question
was whether the county auditor may
have the deciding vote in an election
where one-half of the trustees present
voted for one man and the other half
scattered their votes among two OF
three candidates.
The ruling was to the effect that as
the auditor can only vote 10 case of a
tie, and such condition would not
constitute tie, he would not have
the right to cast vote in such case.
F. A. Cotton thinks, however, that
he has method where such condi-
tion can be gotten around. His plan
is this. In all cases where the vote is
split and SO distributed that dead
lock ensues, one of the trustees who
is in the majority can move that the
candidate receiving the highest vote
on the next ballot be declared elected.
In case there are ten trustees vot-
ing, the five who stand together will
vote in favor of the resolution, and
the five whose votes are scattered will
vote against it. In such case the
county auditor may cast the deciding
vote, which will pass the resolutio q
that will make possible an election.

1t will be remembered that the pro-

fright to those who make q business OF

fears Of the gentlemen are allayed by

Monday was the centennial anniver-

movement to raise $50, 900 to erect
an Emerson Hall at Cambridge was
conditioned on the amount being
raised before his birthday. The sum
was completed on Friday by a sub

$500 from Mrs. Bayard Taylor. These
names recall great literary memories.

ON THE RACE QUESTION

Goodwin's Weekly; Periodically
the question Of the clashing of races
in the southern states comes up and is
discussed. In the higher order OF
magazines. essays can be found on the
subject every month. Our own thought
is that the north has some questions
quite as difficult Of solution, and that
the question south will probably have
to be left to the southern people them
selves.
At the same time any suggestions
offered in good faith with none but
kindly thoughts for either race ought
not to be put down to a desire TO
needlessly interfere with the affairs
Of other sections.
The negroes born in the south have
a God-given right to remain there.
But as population increases there viii
be more and more crowding, and fol-
lowing a natural law, when the time
is ripe the weaker race will be crowded
to the wall. This thought vas in
President Grants mind when he nego-
tiated for San Domingo. His thought
was to secure a place where the col
ored race in the United States could
find a home. But more than that is
needed. There must be an incentive
for the colored race to emigrate. We
believe it might be brought around
in this way. We will suppose that the
United States might acquire a large
area Of land north and east of Ii
