Monday afternoon Mr.. and Mrs.
Elias Lowrie celebrated their an
niversary Of fifty years of married
~life-rounded out a half century of
existence, n with the other, and
their happy condition adds-another
testimonial that marriage is..not a
failure.
The celebration in the event--of
their lives was held at their home
on the south side, and was attended
by nearly all the relatives of the
aged couple, and a large number of
their friends from this city and
vicinity. At 2 o'clock the guests
commenced to arrive and they were
received at the door by little Geneva
Lowrie, the granddaughter Of the old
couple, Until-dinner w~as--ready at
3 O'Clock the guests engaged in social
conversation, and the honored host
and hostess were presented with
some tokens to show the esteem in
which they are held. The interior
of the rooms were decorated hand
somely with ferns and cut flowers.
At the appointed hour the guests
sat down to a most elegant wedding
dinner, and it was partaken Of with
a great relish by the guests.
Elisa Lowrie was born in Miflin
county, Penn, Oct. II, 1927. At
the early age of only 9 years he was
apprenticed to learn the blacksmith
trade and until within a few years
ago he followed bis line Of work.
In 1852 he came west to Illinois and
located at Cherry Valley, III. His
wife, Miss Adeiia Wilcox, was born
in Westtield, CHA utauqua county, N.
Y, Dec. Z, 1896, and they we're
united. in marriage on Jan. S, 1853.
To the union was born seven
children, five girls land two.boys.
Three of.-the children have passed
away. OF the four living three were
present at the golden wedding. One
daughter, living at Sattle, Wash,
was unable to be present. Mrs. Asa
Dodd, Charles and Lambert Lowrie
were the children present.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lowrie are among
the old Sc tlers Of Dawson county.
In 1882 Mr.. Lowrie came to this
county first and selected a quarter
section of land, and a year later the
family moved out. They lived on
the homestead, which is located 10
miles south Of this city, until about
two years ago., when they moved.to
this city.
The occasion Of their celebration
was a very pleasant one indeed, and
the well wishes that were extended
by the friends made the old couple
feel that there was still much
happiness left them. Both are en-
joying fairly good health and they
are inclined to look on the brighter
side Of life. The Republican ex-
tends to Mr.. and Mrs. Lowrie it's
hearty congratulations and trusts
that they may live to celebrate their
diamond wedding twenty five years
hence.

HON. THOS. |. HERQN.

In this issue of the Record Hon.
Thos. I. Herrn of Evening Shade
announces his candidacy for
prosecuting attorney of the Six
teenth Judicial Circuit, composed
of the counties of Sharp, lizard,
Fulton, Baxter and Randolph,
subject to the action of the dem
ocratic party.
Mr.. Herrn is one of the best
known citizens Of the Sixteenth
Circuit, and perhaps nothing
the Record could say would add
to the peoples knowledge Of him.
He has been engaged in the ac-
tive practice of law for several
years, during which time he has
been counted as pre- -eminently
successful in the courts and won
a distinct popularity with his
fellow-members of the bar and
those with whom his profession
has brought him in contact. He
was a member of the lower house
of the Arkansas legislature du-
ring the sessions of 1895, '97 and
'99, and during his time Of SER
vice as a legislator, it was wide
ly known that the member from
the hills of North Arkansas was
the leading parlimentarian and
debater on the floor of the house.
He has a plain, forceful and con-
vincing manner of argument not
usually found in public speakers.
If elected prosecuting attorney
all the energy of his nature to-
ward a faithful performance of
the requirements of the office will
be put forth, and the people will
find bim careful guardian Of
their interests, and the law
breaker will find him an ever
ready champion Of law and order.
Mr.. Herrn is a clean campaigner
who always pitches his battle
upon high grounds. He has
friends in the five counties of the
circuit who will both hope and
work for his election.

IN THE SENATE.

Washington, March 13.-When the
Senate went into executive session,
Morgan entered on a discussion of At
torney General KnoX's opinion as to
the validity of the title to the Panama
canal property which can be given by
the new Panama Canal Company.
This opinion he attacked as defective,
especially in it's failure to deal with
the jurisdiction Of the French courts
which have passed upon the canal COM
pany's title.
At the instance of Teller the Senate
adopted a resolution calling upon the
President for information as to
whether Great Britain has made a for
NAL protest against the Cuban recipro-
city treaty.
Morgan read at length from the
speeches he has prepared for publica-
ton. He charged that the French
courts have overstepped their legiti-
mate authority in assuming to dispose
of property situated in Colombia with
out reference to the rights retained by
Colombia and the limitations and re-
strictions imposed by the Colombian
government on it's agent, the Interna-
tional Interocean Canal Association.
He contended that as Colombia really
never had parted with the canal zone
and as that country was guaranteed
an annual income of $250,000 from the
proposed canal, that country was the
ultimate sole beneficiary of the enter
prise and the concessionary company
the temporary recipient of the tolls of
the canal for it's compensation or in
demnity."
He claimed therefore, that the de-
cree of the French court authorizing
the sale to the United States was void
because an invasion of the rights of
Colombia. He also contended that the
French legislation attempting to vail
late the acts of the French courts was
IS clearly without authority as the de-
crees of the courts.
France cannot" he said, thus vio-
late the rights of Colombia and the
shareholders, bondholders, and general
creditors of the Panama Canal Co..

cape that responsibility by asserting
that as a government she has had
nothing to do with the company"
