forceful and formidable if not in

ever, we regret to be forced to say
that The Herald has no hope. We
look Upon Mr.. Bartholdt's s declara-

talk has been effectually snubbed,
by the powers that be. And they
will make equally short work of
this logical outcome of handling
business problem. What a

Violated THE GAME LAW


A butcher at Grenada was ar
rested and convicted for having
and selling venison to his custo-
mers. This butcher was ignorant
of the law, but the ignorance is no
excise in law, and he was fined
$25, to remind him to read up on
the new code.
The new game law passed by the
last legislature was drawn alto
gether in favor of sportsman. 1t
is unfair and unjust to the major
ity of the citizens of the state.
Under the new law no person is
allowed to sell any Of the game
animals or birds, and consequently
fellow who cannot go out and kill
them himself can never enjoy
quail toast, "or feasting on the
flesh of any of the game animals
or birds. A farmer cannot take
them from his own land and sell
them without being guilty of a
misdemeanor and subject to fine
of $25, or Imprisonment for thirty
days, or both.
Under the old law, every land
owner could give the game on his
lands the same protection that he
now can, and had the right to
dispose of it as he saw fit during
game season, which we think was
just and right.
Declaring the game property OF
the state and the Game Warden
plan is all in favor of sportsmen
and is being manipulated all the
way through by them.-Winona

NO PRINI ERS THEIR 2.

The Ohio Penitentiary News, for
many years a famous and flourish
ing daily paper published by con-
victs, has suspended publication
for the very reason that there is
mot not left in that big penal i'll
stitution a single man who can
handle type. There is not printer
in the Ohio penitentiary.
Bankers are there in plenty.
More than twenty are there, and
more are on the way. Several con-
vict banks might be operated, with
men to spare. Enough lawyers
are there to take care of an enor'
nous amount of legal business.
Doctors. brokers, and other
"eminently respectable" citizens
are not lacking. Business men,
farmers, mechanics and represen'
tatives of almost every department
of industrial activity are common
here. But not a printer.
The fact throws new light on a
character that has long been com
monty misjudged. The printer t.
day is a home owner. He is o.
fixed employment and is the heao
of a family. He is-and Away
was-far above the average mar
in information and intelligence.
All the notable events of human
life that pass through his hand
makes all impression upon hi
brain.
The fact that more than twenty
bankers are in the Ohio Penitenti.

lative honesty of the printer toda,
and tells more. 1t tell
us that the most common
and most dangerous crimes of to
day are not being committed b.

RIVER IMPROVEMENT l
BOND ISSUE.

At a recent banquet of the Deer
Water Association, in st. Louis,
Congressman Bartholdt of that city
announced that he would offer a
bill in congress providing for a
$4,000, ,00O, 900 bond issue for rivers
and harbors improvement. He as
serted that this was the only feas-
ible means of carrying out the
scheme for a Lake-to-the Gulf deep
water channel, in this generation
This is the view The Herald ex-
pressed of the policy when the as
sociation was organized upon a
fifty million dollar annual appro'
priation' platform; that under the
present scale of cost of the govern
ment the revenue would not adj
nit of any such appropriation
And that the only practicable
means of achieving such a system
of Improvement as the country
necessities call for. lay in bono
issue. But the. question is, car
congress be induced to adopt it
1t was enthusiastically received
at the St. Louis banquet. Ane
Mr.. Bartholdt said if tie Missis
sippi valley ever expected to re-
ceive more than the sops from tn
Federal treasury table it shoul'
demand the bonds as the logica
outcome, handling a business pro

LINcoLN's GROCERY.

Result of One Partners Hunger and
the Other Partners Thirst.
A giant in stature, he was as awk-
ward as he was strong. His rustic ap-
pearance was enhanced by an Ill fitting
suit Of homespun. Thus at the head of
the OK team he made his debut in the
outer world, without means, without
education, without influence. This may
seem a sorry beginning, but let 1t be
remembered that If on that day he had
graduated from Harvard in fashion
able coat the gates Of history would
probably have been closed against him.
Mr.. Lincoln's first business venture
resulted in downright failure. He
formed a partnership with one Berry,
under the firm name of Berry & Lin
coin, to carry on grocery, for the pur-
chase price Of which the Arm note was
given. Berry was jolly, irresponsible
soul, who was born thirsty and who
gave his undivided attention to that
part of the stock known as wet gro
ceries." Mr.. Lincoln, on the other
hand, havir a keen appetite, devoted
himself to he crackers and cheese,
smoked her ings and other edibles at
the dry end of the shop. This happy
adjustment rivaled the familiar case
Of Jack Sprat and his congenial spouse,
but the meager stock could not long
Withstand the inroads of hunger at the
one end and thirst at the other, and a
crisis came which required the sale Of
the remnant of stock. The purchaser
defaulted, and Mr.. Lincoln was left to
pay all the liabilities-a task which
plagued hir for several years. There
by he had Impressed upon him legal
proposition that a partner is liable in
solido.
1t is related that Mr.. Lincoln bought
a barrel of customer, in the bottom
Of which, among other rubbish, was
found a copy Of "BIackstone's Com
mentaries." This was a great find for
the law student, but as the book there
after engrossed his attention the gro
Gerry business collapsed. Thus ended
the first lesson.-J. ". .Quarles in Put

he HAD HIS DOSE.
An incident of the Terrible Battle OF
MontmiraiI.

In February, 1914, the French army
made heroic stand against the allied
forces of Europe. and in one week re-
trieved for short but glorious period
it's lost prestige. Though composed
largely of half raw recruits, 1t escaped
from the very center of 100000 foes,
attacked an army of 10000 men, won
battles and captured 68 cannon,
generals and $4,000 prisoners!
After the terrible fight at Montmirail
Major Bancel, staff surgeon to the
guard, was attending the wounded as
well as he could, close behind the COL
umns still engaged. Looking up from
one unfortunate man whose wounds
he was dressing. he perceived within
a short distance an old mounted chas-
seur of the guard, who was TRANQUILITY
smoking his pipe and watching the
surgeon.
Bancel did not at first pay any at
tention to him. By and by he noticed
the man again, still in the same pos
ture, TRANQUILITY smoking his pipe.
"What are you doing thereW cried
the surgeon.
EonOh1nS, duSWGTCu IuC uudu.
"Does the major forbid me to smoker
"Whatw returned the officer. Aren't
you ashamed to be loafing around here
while your comrades are covering
themselves with gloryT
The chasseur blew out cloud of
smoke and, driving his right spur into
his steed, made him execute a half
turn. Then he said. taking his pipe
out Of his mouth:
Look, major. Don't you think l
have got my dose as it is? Can l do
anything more?"
The major looked. The chasseur's
leg was shot off half way between the
knee and the ankle, so that his left foot
was hanging and dangling against his
horse. The veterans question required
no answer. But 1t may be surmised
what care and attention the surgeon
lavished on the imperturbable chas-
seur.
