SARCASM OF DEAN SWIFT.
Humor in His "Rules and Directions
for Servants"


There was a servant problem when
Dean Swift was alive just as there is
to-day, and he died in 1745. in his
Rules aid Directions for Servants
he wrote: When you have broken
all your earthen vessels below stairs
which is usually done in a week
the copper pot will do as well; it can
boil milk, heat porrldge, hold small
beer; apply it indiferently to all these
uses, but never wash or scour it,
And again: IF you want paper to
SINCE a fowl, tear the first book o
see about the house. Wipe your shoes
for want of a clout, on the bottom of
a curtain or a damask Napkin "In
roasting or boiling" he goes on, "use
none but the large Goals and save
the small ones for the fires above
stairs" Another touch that might
have been written to-day is the follow
Ing: When a butler cleans the plate
leave the whiting plainly to be seer in
all the chinks, for fear your lady
should not believe you had cleaned
It" Once more: There are several
ways OF putting out a candle; you
may run the candle end against the
wainscot, which puts the snuff out i'm
mediately; you may lay it on the
ground and read the snuff out with
your foot; you may hold it upside
down until it is choked in its own
grease, or cram 1t into the socket of
the candlestick; you may whirl 1t
round in your hand till it goes put"

WAS A PATRIOTIC THIEF.
French Woman Robbed Only German
Visitors to Paris.

S'hS'S -
In Paris the police have discovered
a woman who has exhibited a peculiar
sort of patriotism. She was arrested
recently for having robbed a German
merchant of G6S. To the magistrate
she made a strange declaration. She
said hat her mair object in life was
to decoy Germans and to rob them.
She went about with them to cafes
and music halls, and while affecting
to be very interested in them she
picked their pockets. In this way she
had annexed for several years past
I'VE G700. She had picked the peck
cts of exactly s~iXty-seven Germans,
and she was proud of it. AS her rea
son for thus acting the said
that in 1870 her family in Normandy
had been completely ruined by the
German invaders, who stole her ia
Tiers cattle, pigs, fowls and even
plate. She was hen obliged to go out
as a ~dairymaid, but not being accus.
toned to servitude she came to Paris
and began waylaying and robbing Ger.
mans. The magistrate listened to this
tale calmly. 1t made no imp assion
on him.

REPUBLICAN COUNTY TICKET
Election Commissioners Will Hear
Evidence at Court House Thurs
day. October Is.

1t is. we'll known, we suppose, to
every voter in Marshall county that
two sets Of candidates are asking
to be placed on the ballot under the
emblem of the eagle as Republican
candidates for county Offices. One
of these tickets was nominated at a
convention called by the regularly
elecled county committee chosen in
January with William c. Hendricks
as chairman and C.. M Parks secrc-
tary. The other county ticket was
nominated by a convention called by
boilers from the regular organization,
who have been bringing suits of all
kinds in the courts of this county and
surrounding counties and in the SUI
preme court of the state to have
themselves recognized as the Repub-
lican party of Marshall county and so
far have not been able to get any
court 10 recognize them as the Re-
publican organization of the county.
1t is now up to the election com,
missioners to decide which ballot
shall be placed on the county ticket
under the emblem of the eagle.
/ The commissioners met last Friday
night and discussed their duty in the
matter of the contentious of local fac
tons of the Republican party in this
county. They analysed Section s
Chapter 113 of the election laws
passed in 1905 which reads as follows
County or city boards of election
commissioners and county or city
boards OF canvassers in matters con.
corning the sufficiency or validity oil
an nominating certificate or petition
may examine on oath any person
touching any material matter CON
nected with or bearing on the prop
er discharge of their duties. Either
of said boards is given full power tc
send for persons or papers, and com
pei the witnesses to answer undef
oath touching any question which
may properly come before said
board"
The three commissioners, John R
Jones, Vim. Everly and Dr. Burkett
unanimously agreed that it was their
duty to notify the chairman of the
two contending factions of the Re-
publican organization to appear be-

to the members in which he said that
he expected all of them to do their

results when compared with the best
vote of previous years, would pre-

of treachery or knitting.

The Attack on Hanly.

The Democrats OF this State, with
a Stupidity that is remarkable, seem
determined to make their attack on
the strongest, instead of on the
weakest point in the Republican line.
1t may be that they feel that if the
line holds at its strongest point that
1t will hold everywhere, and there
lore that it is necessary to breeak
through the center. But it seems to
us that it would be better to try the
tactics of running round the ends, >
However this may be, there can be
no doubt that Gov. Hanly has done
more than any man in Indiana to
strengthen the party in this State.
therefore, in assailing him, the Dem
ocrats are assailing party leader
who has made good" since he has
been in Office. They are directing at
tention in the most pointed way to
thee achievements of leader who
has really led, and who has shown
nothing but a desire to serve the
people rather than the politicians.
| Governor Ilanly has toned up the
whole state government; he has
tiven dishonest men of his own par
| ty out of Office; he has investigated
the insurance companies of the
,tate; he has forced settlements
rom State officers at the times pre-
cribed by law; he has put an end
to the gambling scandal at French
Lick and West Baden; he has pu,
the whole business of the State on Z
business basis. Any assault on the
man who has done all this can have
no effect except to disgust the peo
pie of Indiana. For certain of the
Democratic leaders by their attacks
on the Governor have merely sue
ceeded in aligning themselves with
e machine politicians of the Re
publican party, who like the Cover
nor as little as they do. These are

ocratic party of Indiana is asked te
strike hands. We do not think sc
poorly of it as to believe that it viii

Mr.. Kern has raised is not one be-
tween the parties, but rather it is one
fbetween the people on one side, and
politicians and machinists of both
parties on the other.--lndianapoli:

for reform of the tariff and ccatrol

and if they will not deal fairly, they
must be dealt with; and the Ameri-

ever demand, as Governor Cummins
suggests, that the Government lay

pose restrictions that will make them
do justice to all men," And they will

of Marshall county to make long
journeys to the homes of the candi-
dates on the regular Republican tick
ct to find out who and what they are
They are Republicans tried and
true, they are not boilers, and the
people know them as the best men
in Marshall county.
Clinton S. Yoekey of Bremen, is
our candidates for county clerk; Gil
bert Coar of Tippecanoe is on the
ticket for auditor; John V. Ashley OF
Walnut, is our candidate for treasur-
err; Joseph M. Black of German, will
make one of the best sheriffs Mar
shall county ever had; William
White of West township is all right
for county assessor, and Fred
Thompson of Union is just the man
for surveyor.
Our candidate for representative
Paul Logan of North township, be-
longs to family of Republicans that
does things, and our candidates fol
county commissioners: Philip Sick
man of Union and General w. Kill
gore of Polk, are men who can be
trusted in any position.

err, is capable to hold satisfactory
inquest on the remains of boilers
or any other dead people, and ouI
candidates for the advisory board
will give advice that is worth some
thing.

fore them and set forth their inter-
probation of the facts as to the pre-
liminary procedures They were to
meet Saturday morning at speci-
ed hour and place to sign up papers
which were to be placed in the hands
of the sheriff, who under the statute
is the proper person to notify the
two men who claim title to the Re-
publican craftsmanship.
When the hour arrived, DR.. Bur
kett failed to show up, notwithstand-
ing tn fact that the three commission
ers had unanimously agreed to do So
considering such to be their duty as
defined by the statute.
Mr.. Jones and Mr.. Eveerly then
called upon DIR. Burkett and he said
| that he had counseled with Atty.
Parks and had been advised not to
sign the papers. He did not sign
them, and, thereupon, Mr.. Jones and
MIR. Eyerly, constituting a majority
lof the board signed them and de-
livered them to the sheriff, who in
| turn served them on Hendricks and
iGarn.
The board vii meet at the court
house Thursday morning when the
evidence will be received and the
board will then decide the contention
on the law and the evidence :
The members of board of cleo
ton commissioners have a duty to
perform under the law, as will be
seen from the section of the law
above quoted. They must act in a ju-
dicial capacity, until they have heard
the evidence and we agree with the
Democrats of the city and county
who are roasting the Republican
member of the board for making up
his mind and giving his opinion and
decisions without hearing the evil
dence, that if he has done SO he is
not qualified to act judicial ca
pacity and should be removed from
his position.
We believe, however, that DR.. Bur-
kett has allowed himself to be bull
! dozed by Senator Parks, who inform
ed him Saturday. that being satisfied
that earn had no case in any of the
suits that have been brought and that
as last resort thy would ask the
supreme court to issue an injunction
aaginst the ticket nominated at the
regular Republican convention in
September, and simply scared DIR.
Burkett into the belief that he should
