Progressing

Mr.. Rawlings seems to be making
headwav with his electric lines.
This Is a very large undertaking and
seems to be progressing as rapidly as
could he expected. Mr.. Rawlings is
pushing the enterprise with his well
known energy and everything seems
to be coming his way.
Towns that had turned his fran.
chise down in the start are now ready
and willing to come In, The right-of
way is being rapidly secured. An in
spector for the fiscal agency that will
handle the bonds has just gone over

of interurban lines will be built and
that soon we will SEE the principle

What Good Farming Is

Good farming does not consist in
seeing how much land can be skinned
over without any reference to It's pre-
ductlveness, but in so farming as to
grow the most on the least possible
space. Herein lies the secret Of good
and successful farming, obtaining the
most from the least space. Too much
land as rule, is under cultivation on
almost every farm to make 1t most
productive. Where stock is kept to
consume the products Of the farm, In
a majority Of cases from one-haif to
three-fourths of the acreage can be
kent In grass and clover TO better
advantage than to keep it 10 cultivA.

sermon. A large crowd attended the
services as a mark ofsympathy for the

Talmage Barbee was very deserv :
ing young man of eighteen years, He
was bright Industrious aud ambitious
moral and upright in every way, His
schoolmates showed their appreciation
of his character by attending in a
body. Everybody was sorry to see
Talmage go. There were others that
could have been better spared, yet his
memory will linger and his pure life
may inspire other young boys with
better and higher aspirations.

Now che consideration of promise
NAV be required into, whethereit be
III der ST al or not.
IL must not be thought that In order
to support a promise the other party
must necessarily give something or
promise to give something, If he is
to lose or suffer something or promises
to give up something. the consldera'
lion is a valid one. II / promise to
give you hundred dollars If you stop
smoking for six months, and, depend
ing upon my promise, you do stop
smoking for six months, am bound
to pay the one hundred dollars. 10
this case you have not given anything
or promised to give anything to me,
but you have suffered loss, or have
given up something, depending upon
the promise. 1t has always been held
that promise is good consideration
for promise, that is, my promise to
do something for you, If given in ex
change for a promise by you to do
something for me, makes valid con-
tract. The most common example OF
this sort of contract is the marriage
contract, under which each party
promises, and the promise of each is
consideration for the promise of The
other.
Sometimes it is not an easy matter
to determine whether the contract has
consideration or rot. 1t should be
understood that where one is already
bound in the law to do thing, his
promise to do that thing is not a suf-
icient consideration to support con
tract.
Suppose, for instance, that you owe
me hundred dollars and the debt is
overdue. say to YOU eff you will
pay me the hundred dollars you owe
me, l will give you the rent of house
free for MONTH" Depending on my
promise you pay me the hundred dol
lars, and 7 refuse to give you the

for my promise to give you this house

you of something that you are already

there is no legal consideration and IL

The Query Answered
Chanute May 10, 10

Mr.. Editor, Chanute Times;
Sir | see in your editorial CO.
lumns an inquiry of "Who is Park
Helmick." l suppose such inquiry
was prompted by the numerous
voters we meet on the street and In
the country who ask the same ques-
ton. Now sir l heard this ques-
ton asked many times and will give
YOU some of the answers given.
The first time l heard it it was
asked by a farmer from east OF
Chanute. The answer given by
bystander was why, sir, he is a
He'll mick of a dude who obtained
his nomination through the grossest
kind of deception, after he and his
fellow fxers had deceived the hon
est voters, especially those of the
fourth ward, by saying that he was
out of the field and would not be
candidate at all.
Second answer at another time
was why l don't know him, l never
heard of him myself till a week CT
two ago and 1 have lived in the
country for thirty years, and thought
knew every one of any consequence
either by sight or reputation. l heal
that he is young man who came
from somewhere in the north but
exactly where neither he nor his
friends appear very anxious to say.
Another. why he is the young man
that Congressman Bowersock sent
here to P. P. Campbell for Mr..
Campbell to find a place, for as
Mr.. Bowersock could not use Mr..
Helmick's talent in his district.
l do not remember all the other
answers IN rotltion as l heard them
but will give you few more as !
now remember them. One struck
me as very expressive, it was why
he is young fellow who came to
teach us that we did not know what
we wanted politically.
Another was why he is the fellow
whom little Herbie bounced out of
the Tribune office force some time
since as a man who could not be
used even there.
Another was why he is the fellow
that the FIVE boss fixess nominated
at Erie convention and expect with
the party lash to drive sensible hon.
est men to vote for whether in your
and their judgement it is the interest
of the people or the monopolies.
One more of the many and
think you ought to be answered
enough. Why 1 do not wish to
make a celebrity of him and call his
name into prominence, as from what
l can learu he is a man who should
always remain in well deserved OBJ
scurity and as little attention should
be paid 10 him now aswill he in few
days after election.
Citizen and voter.
