Roush Insanity Case.

Monday, A. L. ROuSh, a young man
of Solomon township was tried for in
sanity Doctors E. A. Nelson and d.
D. Haggard were called to pass upon
his sanity and found him a bit subject
for the asylum where he will be taken
as soon as permission isobtained from
the authorities. During the mean
Time he will be cared for at the home
of his sister, Mrs. z. G. Mckinley and
guarded by Fred Hickman and Frank
Gray. The patient has done no injury
to anyone but had shown signs OF APP
preaching violence. He has been
troubled with spinal affection since
an attack of typhoid a few years ago.
Skillful treatment may alleviate bis
sutTerings and possibly effect cure.

An old man was the father of q
bright son whom he had raised accord
Ing to the most upright standards.
Finally the boy was nomina ted for
office and at first the old man was
proud Of the fact, but In the course Of
a week or two he got hold Of several
opposition papers which intimated
that his son was engaged In several
shady deals, that there was strong
evidence that his nomination had
been obtained by fraud and that be
was suspected Of swlndllng blind

curious" unused the old man, "that l

If a man had a $50 pup or $50 colt
he would look after them carefully
and not let them run all over town.
But IL he has a boy it's different. He
is turned loose at tender age and let
90 to the devil. Then people wonder
where the great army of tramps, loaf
ers, dead beats and sots come from in
this decade. They are terminated
from the pare seed gathered from our
homes and Sown broadcast upon the
streets and alleys. 1t may be your
boy is starting In that direction. At
all eTents the boy ought to be given
an equal chance with the dogs and
horses. Exchange,

New Firm.

Judge w. II. Pratt Of this city and
C. NJ. Mills of Marshall county have
formed a partnership and will engage
Ia the general practice of law and
such other business as is usually ham
died in connection with the legal pro-
fession.
Judge Pratt who Is one Of the oldest
lawyers in the county, enjoys a good
practice. He also handles real estate
successfully and prohtably to himself
and client. His work became too
heavy and demanded so much atten-
tion that a partner became necessary
and Mr.. Mills comes to assume this
responsible position.
Mr.. Mills is a young man who has
received splendid collegiate training
having graduated from both the liber-
al arts course and the legal depart
ment Of the State University. He is
authorized to practice In all the courts
Of the state. He is a pleasing gentle
man, ambitious and no doubt will be
successful 10 the practice Of law.
Tile Mills family arrived in town
last Saturday and will occupy the
residence property OF Mrs. Hickman
In the southeast part OF town. The
people Of Phillipsburg, we are certain
will be glad to,wecome them both TO
the business and social circles Of the
city.

Need More Business Buildings.

Two men looking for a suitable
place to locate and establish them
selves in business were in the city
last week. Both seemed well satisfied
with the town and would have been
glad to locate here but business rooms
were not available and, they did not
consider it advisable to wait until
those under way are completed. 1t is
evident that one thing the city
needs badly is more business blocks.
Those now being built will be Occupi-
ed soon after completion.

The Independent Voter.

Thepartisan press has already be-
gun giving prominence to announce
ments from men who have decided to
clange their political affiliations In
the pending campaign, and from now
until election day we may reasonably
expect to find a large amount Of this
matter in tho public prints. If the
man who makes the change has been
at all prominent, his decision is her
aided as stunning blow to the OPP
position, and estimates are made Of
the very large number Of votes who
will be influenced by his decision and
who will follow his example. Each
announcement is hailed by the politi.
cal managers as indicating which way
the wind is blowing, and partcula rly
thus early in the campaign, is welcom-
ed as presaging general dlsatfectlon In
the ranks Of the party from which
the individual under discussion has
taken his departure.
We are Of the opinion that too
much significance is attached to the
movement Of the political topper
and the term is not used in any dis
respectful sense. The day Of the bitter
partisan belongs to the past and to
the men who make their living by
partizanship. Party lines are no long
er insurmountabe walls, and party
differences are no longer marked
enough to prevent thinking men from
being very liberal In the selection Of
candidates for whom they shall vote.
This growth Of non-partisanship has
been very rapid in the last few years,
and is shown in the fact that In very
many Of the cities Of the country
partisanShip Is not considered at all
In municipal campaign.
Twenty years ego bipartisan
municipal election was almost an i'm
possibility, while the man who desert
ed his party in national campaign
was denounced as a turncoat and a
traitor by the members Of bis party
and was accorded a rather chilly re.
ceptiOn by the opposition. The Re.
publicans who followed Greeley In
1872 were bitterly assailed and were
taken back into the party fold only at
ter they had repented and served a
proper probationary term. The mug.
wumps who refused to support Mr.
Blaine were branded as party crlml
nails and denounced In scathing terms
Since that time the independent
voter has been accorded more gener-
GUS treatment. The men who bolted
Bryan In 1896 and the men who left
the Republican party In that year on
the silver issue have been again re-
ceiyed 10 the councils Of their parties,
and the way Is now apparently free
for a man " openly declare bis
change Of party affiliations, no mat
ter how prominent be may be, II his
reasons for the change are sufficiently
strong to leave 10 question Of bis mo
tlses. The independent voter is a
prominent, II not a dominant factor
In American politics today, and 1t Is
unqueStlonably good thing for the
country that he is There Is no dan
ger Of any great harm coming to the
nation so long as the balance Of poll
tlcsl power is held by men who refuse
to allow their thinking to be done by
party bosses; by men who consider
personal fitness Of candidates and
wortblness Of principals above orders

Hills Inside Germs

The greatest value of Liquozone lies in
the fact that it kills germs in the body
without killing the tissues, too There is
nothing else known which will do that
Any drug that kills germs is a poison. and
it cannot be taken internally. For this
reason, medicine is of little effect in a
germ trouble. as every physician knows.
This problem of killing inside germs is
the greatest problem that medical men ever
met. These germs are the cause of most
of the serious diseases. And the only way
to cure such diseases is to kill those germs.
An internal germcde, effective yet harm
less. has been sought after more than any
thing else in the history of medical prac-
tice.
Liquozone has solved this problem.
The chemist who discovered Liquozone
first proved that germs are vegetables.
Then he found that an excess of oxygen
the very life of an animal-is deadly to
vegetable matter Then he sought a way
to get the virtues Of oxygen in stable form
into the blood. The result, after twenty
years. is product which kills inside germs
which does what nothing else can do.

Acts Like Oxygen

But Liquozone is more than a gernni-
eide. 1t is also a tonic, with which no
other product can compare. 1t is just
such tonic excess or oxygen gas
would be, If 1t could be held in the blood.
Oxygen is the vital part of air; the very
source of vitality. the most essential ele-
ment of life. 1t is oxygen that turns the
blue blood TO red in the lungs. 1t is oxy-
gen that eliminates the waste tissue and
builds up the new. Oxygen is the nerve
food, the blood food. the scavenger of the
blood. 1t is so essential to every func-
ton of life that we couldn't live three min
utes without it. There would be no weak
nerves no lack of vitality. no impure blood
if we could feed to the blood a little more
oxygen.
But oxygen is gas and unstable. The
blood cannot hold an excess. Liquozone is
a liquid, concentrated and stable-not even
volatile. In the process of manufacture it
takes from the gas its virtues and it car
ries those virtues to every cell of every It's
sue. 1t gives TO every nerve center just
