No Answer Atail.

Ex-Attorney General Knox, who
was sent to the Senate frcm Pennsyl-
vania In Quay's place, by the Stell
Trust attempts to answer Judge
PaIker's charge that the Republics
party buys elections for the presidency
or relies largely upon n oLey from the
corporations and trusts for that pur-
pose. MIR. Knox's so called response
is that the Democratic party has its
tru t supporters. There are, 10
doubt, some men of large means in tie
Democratic party and some who are
connected with trusts, but we notice,
when the campaign is on, the national
committee is always, Of late years,
short OF cash even for legitimate pur.
poses. We suppose that Judge
Parker's address and the onslaught
made upon Cortelyou demanded some
public answer. Mr.. Knox did not an

The Difference.

The Wilmington Star says: Tom
Watson Is denouncing the Hon. Will
liam jennings Bryan for supporting
Judge Parker. Colonel Bryan is open
ly making fight for the candidate
whom he wants elected, while Wat
son, under the pretence that he is a
candidate himself, is bushwhacking
for Roosevelt. That Is the difference
between statesman like Bryan and a
pOltrOOn like Watson.

TIE fact that odds are offered on a
certain candidate Is no certainty
whatever that he will be elected. In
1876 Hayes had the betting odds
right along. In 1884 Blaine was 9
to l favorite for weeks after the
nominations had been made, and odds
were given on him right down to the
eve of election. Yet Tilden beat
Hayes and Cleveland defeated Blaine.

Cleveland stock has advanced rapid

the republicans have named their can
didate and promulgated ther platform.
The plank In the latter which under
takes to deal with the negrow suffrage
problem has hushed the voices of those
who week ago were proclaiming
that Cleveland could not carry the
solid South. These same people are
now declaring he Is the most available

liticians in Virginia that if the admir-
ers of Cleveland shall conduct the ne
gotiations at ST. Louis with their
wonted foresight and dexterity, and
the name of their favorite shall be up

Killed Bya Buzz Saw.

David Miller, while assisting to saw
wood with a buzz saw at the home of
Emanuel Fisher In Whitley county,
last week was killed by the thirty-two-
inch saw being torn from the shaft by
a stick of wood falling into the frame
between the feed and the frame. The
heart Of the steel disc was torn out
and it jumped off the end of the shaft,
over the burr and tore like lightning
over the ground. In its course it
struck two other workmen, cutting
them badly about the limbs. Other
workmen jumped for their lives and
and were thus saved from injury. The
saw travelled thirty feet from where
it started, and striking stick of wood
bounded up to the roof OF the barn
where it stuck.

The United States wheat growing
section will have to look to its laurels.
The area in the Canadian territories
suitable for wheat culture is not only
much larger than that In the states,
but the yield is greater per acre. In
the states the average is only fourteen
and a bali bushels, while the best
lands In the Canadian Northwest
readily turn out twenty-five bushels.
Owing to the length Of the summer
day in Athabaska and Mackenzie,
which is two hours longer than in our
Western states, spring wheat natures
in 101 to 10S days.

Marshall county republicans have
placed an excellent ticket in the field
and republicans should see that their
neighbors all know it and vote for it.
The men nominated are men who are
honest and capable of properly dis
charging the duties that will come to
them following their election. Being
such they deserve the support Of their
party and should also have the votes
of other parties members who desire

WEALTH AND POVERTY.

Wealth and poverty are terms that
indicate only comparative conditions.
The Millionaire's club recently organ
lied in Chicago, admits no member
worth less than million dollars, aud
those members who are worth less
than two millions feel their poverty
keenly in comparison with the riches
of many other members of that club.
When Magellan visited the coasts of
South America on his celebrated voy-
age in search Of passage to the Pa
cific the gift OF calico shirt to an ad-
venturOus savage who boarded his
ship. made that fortunate individual
the envy OF all his tribe. The possess
sion of what in civilized communities,
is deemed simple, necessary gar
ment, was, among those artless dwell
lers on the pampas, equal to patent
Of nobility. Though it does not al
ways manifest itself in such ridiculous
fashion. the principle is the same in
all communities. What is poverty in
one place would be wealth in another,
and the wealth of one generation
would be esteemed dis.ressful poverty
by the generation following.
1t is evident that, after the actual
necessities Of life are met, the ques-
ton Of wealth and poverty is simply
one Of comparison between individual
possessions and the ability to supply
artificial or imaginary wants. He is
rich whose wants are satisfied, no
matter whether these are many or
few. Real wealth does not consist In
the abundance of the things one pos
sesses, but in the relation of MS pos
sessions to his wants. When the
wants are met all suuerfiuity increases
the burdens but adds nothing to the
real wealth of the possessor. Some
Of the poorest men OF the present time
are milIionaircs, because they want
more and more every day of their
lives.
1t is natural to regard as fortunate
those who are possessed Of material
wealth. but a ''sound mind in a sound
body, " the blessings Of home and true
friendships end conscience void OF
o1Iense toward God and man. are in
nnitelY better than silver and gold.

THE TRIBUNE WINS.
Appellate Court Aifirms Decision o
Marshall Circuit Court.

Most readers of this paper are
aware that an attempt was made al
most three years ago to prevent the
publica ton of the Plymouth Tribune
by foreclosing mortgages on the tan
gible property and good will of the
Plymouth Republican.
Mr.. Hendricks turned over the
mortgaged property Of the Republican
but Attorney Martindale made his
clients believe that they could pre-
vent the publication of a new paper,
and the publication of the Tribune
was enjoined in the Circuit Court
which decided that the proprietors of
the Tribune had a right to publish
such paper.
Martindale and his clients appealed
to the appellate court and on Tuesday
that court affirmed the decision of
the lower court, holding that:
"Where mortgage on such proper.
ty and good will was given by pur-
chaser thereof to secure purchase
money, and he afterward discontinued
publishing the newspaper and aban-
poned the tangible property to the
mortgages, his wife and brother
could not be enjoined from starting a
new paper under another name, with
new furniture and machinery and SOL
letting the old subscribers. nor could
said mortgagor be enjoined from ac-
ting as their business manager 10 the
new enterprise. !"
The case for tine proprietorS of the
Tribune was managed by L. NJ. Lauer
of this city, who made all the briefs
for the higher court and won the case
over Martindale and Stevens on every
point contested.
The decision emphasizes the fact
that honesty, common sense and law
are the same thing, and where a SEN
Sible lawyer has right on his side the
courts viii, decide in his favor. Mr..
Lauer has shown his good sense and
judgment as we'll as thorough knowl-
edge of law In this case and the Trib-
une is as much pleased to say SO as it
Is at the decision In its favor; and it
will continue to be the leading paper
Of Marshall county and will work for
the best interests of Plymouth and
the entire county, always standing for
what it believes to be right.
