Wheat Outlook is Optimistic.

Kansas, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Nebraska, Ok
Iahoma and Pennsylvania are enthu-
siastic over the outlook. OF these
Ohio, Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebras-
ka i, particular send information that
there has been a marked improve
ment in general conditions since the
last government report in December,
Oregon, Texas and Michigan see
signs of retrogression during that
period, but they are willing to admit
that appearances may be deceptive.
OF the acreage sown last fall there
will be little abandonment of wheat
and devoting of ground to other
crops. Michigan presents the worst
phase in this particular. In that state
it IS expected a considerable area will
be Flowed up on account OF damage
by alternate freezing and thawing in
February and March. Tennessee will
abandon a very small percentage OF
her wheat acreage, and Oregon will
give over the badly injured wheat
fields to the spring v~arities of grain

Metsker's Animus.

Metsker was allowed TO make a
speech during the closing hours of
the Metsker-W olford trial at the OPP
era house Tuesday night. The trial
lasted all day and until ten o'clock
at night and furnished more free
amusement than so large a crowd had
ever got in one day in Plymouth.
A number of business men had been
placed on the witness stand to try to
prove that the little editors reputa-
ton for truth and ~veracity was such,
that he should not be believed On
oath.
Metsker attacked VIM. O'Keefe and
w. G.. Hendricks declaring that they
had inspired the attempt to impeach
him. His animus against Hendricks
is that Hendricks refused to join with
him in a false affidavit to get more
money from the county for printing
than the law allows.
He told MI. Hendricks that if he
did not do this he would use his in
~fluence with the county officers to
give county printing to another paper
and he did approach one of the off,
GERS with this proposition.

PLYMOUTH, IND.

Never lose sight of the fact that
the founders of the American Repub-
lie believed in a representative form
of government. These noble, saga
cious and enlightened men-earnest,
sincere patriots that they were-had
made a thorough study of the various
forms of government that sprung into
existence and vanished, from time to
time After mature dcIiberation they
agreed upon a system of government
that they believed was adapted to this
county, would work well, last for
years, and prove conducive to the
public welfare. Time has proved
their wisdom and far-sightedness. The
part of wisdom and safety would seem
to be to adhere to what they gave rs,
and not to be too much in = hurry to
discard something substantial for the
sake of experimenting with some MS
onarics' r stions.-South Bend Trib-
une.

Wolford's Trial.

Wolford was fined ten dollars and
costs by Justice Zehner Tuesday for
gambling March 3. The trial was
held at the opera house and drew an
immense audience. Those present say
it was the most comical entertainment
ever given in Plymouth. The justice
over-ruled the supreme court, allowed
everybody to make speeches, allowed
witnesses to testify as they chose,
and run the court in an original nan
ner that was surprising to lawyers End
spectators, but when he made his de-
cision Wolford thought there was not
much difference between Justice Zeh-
ner and Justice Young.
There was much damaging evidence
against both Metsker and Wolford,
and it is hard to tell when the end
will come.
