Holes in The Ice.

The story that the Depot correspon-
dent writes about Virginia George"
and "Iong Wade" fishing through ice
from two 10 three feet thick on Stratton
pond in May reminds me OF circum-
stance that happened about 40 years
ago. Big Bill and | had two or three
hounds and expected to flood the fox
skin market. We also had caught a
lot of minuows aud had them in wash
tub in Bills cellar, kept alive by a
small stream Of water flowing into the
tub. One day in March we lit out early
with live bait, lines, guns and dogs and
some stuff" TO help the inner man
along. At9 a. m. we were on Plckrel
pond, aud 10 and behold two or three
small men were fishing at several holes
in the ice which at that time was three
feet thick. Bill made dash for them
yelling, "What in HI are you doing
here fishing in my holesf' when did
you cut these bolesi" says one Of the
boys" Last year." yelled Bill, "get
out of this mighty quick" And they
got out just as Bill stumbled over a
piece of ice and fell. In so doing be
fred his old Queen Ann shot gun into
the air.
We sci our lines and "braced up"
and got behind wind break but no
fish bit. We were fearful cold for the
North wind was cutting us to the bone
and the hounds whined aud shiyered,
We struck out southeast and soon had
some rabbits. We then drifted with
the wind and came out at old Mr..
Weeds where good FIRE and red pep.
per and apple juice thawed us out and
on we went. We got more rabbits and
came out at Cliff Dale House, where
with good dinner and some nerve
tonic" we pushed on TO old Factory
Point where we told stories until near
night. Then We booted il up the rail.

storms that ever blew. When we got

troll them. instead Of being secret, viii be
known to the voters.
As an earnest token that our party will make
good in its pledge, we ask you TO eonstrue this
plank and put it into immediate operation. This
can be done by the adoption of a resolution an
nouncing that in pursuance of the policy outlined
in that pledge your committee will not accept
any contribution from any individual above a
cation before election of all contributions above
reasonable minimum: We suggest for your
of S100. contribution to be received above
$4,000 and all contributions above $IOO to be
made public before election
We suggest that on or before the 18th dav
or october publication shall be made Of all con-
tributions above 800 received up to that date
that after the 18th Of October publication shall
be made. Of such contributions on the day that
the same received. and that no contribution
above s1O0 shall be accepted within three days
of the election.
PROPOSALS ADOPTED
Bryan commented upon his proposal
saying that at the republican conven-
tion, "a plank in favor of publicity was
turned down by a very large vote
and that the republican leaders Were
now attempting to avoid censure by
announcing that. through their treas
urer, a New York man, would publish
the contributions after the election
He said that the people ought to know
before the election what influences are
at work to procure the success of g
party.
Bryan's suggestion was promptly
adopted amid applause, as was an
other one providing for the pubIica-
tion of a complete list of campaign ex-
penditures within 80 days of the cleo
tion.
The resolution for the appointment
of the subcommittee to choose a chair
man was then adopted and the full
committee took luncheon as the guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan.
Bryan promised Roger Sullivan ot
Illinois that he would speak at the
Illinois democratic state convention al
Peoria, ILL.,, in September.
