Candidate for Clerk Of Court.
The democratic ticket is pre-
eminent this year for two
reasons. Itcontains the names
of men splendidly qualified for
the positions to which they az.
pire. and second it contains the
names of men of great popular
ity wherever they may be
known. A party that is ac-
knowledged to be in the minor
ity in the county on national
policies, must, if it expects to
win in county offices, name on
~ such men. And the demo-
cratic party has named them.
The success of the party in
Richland county is directly at
tributable to that policy-the
naming of men with powerful
personal friendships and with
ability to do ,he work oe the
people. :, On the democrat..-
ticket thi- .,,ear shere is no msr

ed good to MIN and he trave.s
west, taking the position
agent for the G. N. at that tim.
Two years later he accepted a
similar position for the 500
line in Lidgerwood, and re-
mained in that place till 1902.
In that year he quit railroad
work to accept position as
assistant cashier in the Lidger-
wood State Bank. At the same
time he formed partnership
with L. Mathews, cashier of
the bank, under the name of
Hynes & Mathews and did
more to open up tile sleepy
eyes OF eastern farmers to the
glories of this country than anv
other man. During his fifteen
years residence in Lidgerwood
he has held the esteem and
friendship of the people-a
thing that the agent of a rail-
road company sometimes fails
to do. He has been repeatedly
honored by his townsmen by
election as member of the city
council, of the school board,
city justice for several years
and is now serving as treasurer
of the City of Lidgerwood.-
Whatever else Lidgerwood may
have been noted for in years
past. it has been noted for one
thing-the enterprise and push
of its citizens. And among
these. prominent in, every en-
terprise that would make the
city what it is, ]. NJ. Hynes took
his part This is enough to in
troduce Mr.. Hynes to those who
are unacquainted with him.
That such a man is candidate
for county office on the demo-
cratic ticket is a credit to the
party. That he is able to full
fill the duties of the important
Office of clerk of court there
can be no doubt. That he will
be elected there can be no
doubt, for his personal "good-
fellowship" will attract votes
to him, not only the votes of
the doubtful or the Indifferent,
but those of the other party
who believe in having good
men in offce-and his vote in
his own city, in the townships
around where he is known and
in the whole south end of the
county will show this. Your
vote cast for ]. NJ. Hynes for
clerk of court will be a vote
cast right!

AdnptabiIity of the Grange.

The grange as an organization is
adapted to the needs of every commu-
nifty, says Overseer Fuller Of New
York. For the locality where men
make the accumulation Of money the
paramount issue the grange has a
place, for it makes the accumulation of
wealth easier in many ways. For the
community where social and intellec-
tual development is the primary mo-
tive our Order affords the best possible
means to carry on educational work
and promote social intercourse among
farmers. For the community where a
frat6rnal order is needed to draw men
closer together and help them to carry
each others burdens the grange stands
prominently forth as the only organ
ization affording fraternal benefits to
men and women on the same basis of
equality.

CHRISTMAS GAMES.
How to Amuse the Children During
the Holidays.

the Holidays.
Christmas day games for the chill
dren are as necessary as q plum pud-
ding, and the following will please
them and are welcome to many grown
ups. says the Chicago Tribune:
Santa Claus Pack.-All form in line
and march to lively strain ON the
piano to the next room, where table
holds the contents of Santa Claus
pack. They look at every object on
the table and then march back. The
company now divides in half, one-half
leaving the room, the table and its
contents having been covered. Those
remaining choose some object which
they remember seeing; the piano begins
to play again and the others return
The leader gives to the returning party
a word which rhymes with the object
chosen. Thus, If it was q ball, he
might mention the word ''hall." The
returning party now proceed to guess
what object has been chosen, and they
express their guess by acting in panto-
mime. They do not all suggest the
object in the same way, but each ac-
cording to his individual fancy, but
they must all agree upon the object
they will guess. If wrong they go
out for another trial and so on until
guessed, when the other half of the
company goes out, and they remain
and select the object for the others to
guess.
Hiding the Mistletoe.-All form ia
line, single file and march about the
room or several rooms until the music
stops. They then proceed to hunt the
mistletoe, which the leader carried in
his hand and concealed somewhere
effect return to the starting point with.
out being touched by the leader.
Santa Claus Sleigh.-SiX girls arc
harnessed to little sleigh or Sled
and the white ribbon relns are held
by a seventh. The sled is filed with
small parcels in colored papers con-
tanning Christmas crackers or any
trihes as favors The party goes round
the room several times, dispensing tho
favors to the young men, who proceed
to select partners. and dance until a
signal from the leader calls all to
march around the room and back to
their places.
Snowball.-A large white ball of It's
sue paper is suspended well out of the
way of bric-a-brac. The young girls
take turns at shooting at this ball with
a small rubber ball. When hit with
sufficient force it breaks and out falls
q shower of smaller white balls, per-
haps popcorn balls, which are gathered
and presented as favors for the next
march or dance AS there should be
only about half as many balls as there
are couples dancing, this will cause
scramble among the small boys who
gather them up and who, for fair deal
ing, should be kept behind a certain
line until the ball receives the shot |

A Notable Maine Grange.

A notable instance of what is posi-
bic in the line of encouraging agricul-
ture is the work of the Pine Tree
grange of Lisbon, Me-, says the New
England Homestead. In this grange
the Maine Sweet Corn Growers asso-
citation had its birth, and through it
and the county Pomona it received the
impetus which carried it where it is
today. There are about $40 members
in this grange, with an average week
ly attendance of over 100. A few years
ago lot was bought and large, COM
Portable hall erected, the latter cost
ing $4,000. This is now paid for. Each
year the grange gives a fair open only
to patrons, when various fancy goods
and all agricultural products are
shown. This grange is doing a worthy
work. The field is broad and the OPP
portunities numerous enough for many
other oranges to do equally creditablc
service in helping farmers.

The Grange a Secret Order.

The grange is a secret order in that
it's meetings are usually for the bene
fit of members only, but occasionally
open meetings are held. There are
signs and salutations characteristic OF
secret orders. The ritual work of sub
ordinate oranges covers four degrees
of the county, called Pomona oranges

seventh degree. The ritual work of ali
the degrees is very beautiful and in.

ners de luxe and high play, or, to speak
cynically, the ruin of mind, body and

his cravats, his quarrel with the prince
regent and his phenomenal good luck
at the then fashionable game Of ma.
Gao. One evening he found the gam
ing table so full that there was no
room for him, but seated there was q
friend Of his whom he knew to be too
poor to play for the extravaganza stakes
affected by the habitues and who prob
ably would not have been there at all
but for the rosy influence Of a good
dinner with plenty Of wine. After
word or two the friends changed
places, and before long Brummel rose
the richer by 1880. This sum he
faithfully shared with his friend, say
ing, "There, Tom, go home and give
your wife and brats supper and play
no more" The action was kindly and
the advice good, and, though the words
lacked somewhat respect, the pill was
well gilded. Tom was the handsome,
