Guard Against Fire.

So long as the dry weather
continues, local people should be
specially careful in regard to
burning rubbish and starting fires
which may spread and do damage
Owing to the long drought, grass
and weeds are dry and require
only mere spark to start them
b1a zing. ais we'll as the timbers OF
frame dwellings and shingle roofs.
Plymouth has excellent fire pro-
lection. but the citizens should
not be lax in their exercise of pre-
caution. A small bonfire may
bpread and cause a loss Of many
thousand dollars.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1908-09-24
FAMOUS HISTORY
OF FOREST FIRES
Continued from pag. L.

miles in Wisconsin, and involved
a loss in timber and other prop
erty OF many millions of dollars.
Between 1,200 and 1,500 persons
persisted, including nearly half
he population of Peshtigo, at
that time town OF 1000 popu-
lation. Other fires OF about the
same time were most destructive
n Michigan. A strip about forty
miles wide and $50 miles long,
extending across the central part
of the state, from Lake Michigan
to Lake Huron, was devastated.
The estimated loss in timber was
about 100000 feet board meas,
ure, and in money over 100000
600. Several hundred persons
persisted.
In the early part of September
1881, great fires covered more
than 1900 square miles in vari-
Gus parts OF Michigan. The est.
mated loss, in property, in addi-
tion to many hundred thousand
acres Of valuable timber, was
more than $2,500,000. Over 5000
persons were made destitute, and
the number of lives lost is vari-
ously estimated at from $50 to 500
The most destructive fire of more
recent years was that which start
ed near Hinckley, Minnesota,
September /, 1894. While the
area burned over was less than in
some other great fires, the loss
OF life and property was very
heavy Hinckley and six other
towns were destroyed, about 500
lives were lost, more than 1000
persons were left destitute, and
the estimated loss in property of
various kinds was $25, 000, 900.
Except for the heroic conduct of
locomotive engineers and other
railroad men the loss of life would
have been much greater.
This fire was all the more de-
plorable, because it was wholly
unnecessary. For many days be-
fore the high wind came and
drove it into uncomfortable fury,
it was burning slowly close to
the town OF Hinckley, and could
have been put out.

Prosperity and Morality.

Every good citizen should de-
sire to see prosperity and justice
and fair and righteous dealing as
between man and man obtain per-
manently in this great republic.
AS people we are justly proud OF
our business industry, OF our
energy and intelligence in our
work; and it is entirely right, that
we should ask ourselves as to any
given course of conduct, Will it
be profitable. But it is also no
less emphatically true that the
bulk of our people, the plain peo-
pie who found in Abraham Lin
coin their especial champion and
spokesman, regard the question
Is this morally right? as even
more important than the question,
Is this proftable?' when applied
to any course of conduct.
Indeed, in the long ruin our
people are sure to find that in all
dealings, alike in the business and
the political world, which is really
profitable is that which is moral
ly right. The last few years have
seen great awakening Of the
public conscience and the growth
of a stern determination to do
away with corruption and unfair
dealings, political, economic, So
cial.
These words of President
Roosevelt contain the substance
of his much talked of policies. "
They present the impelling mo-
tive of his action, and voice his
exalted trust in the soundness OF
the American people. This nation
is prosperous and enterprising be-
cause its people as body desire
to better their condition. They
wish to see their children better
situated than themselves have
been. But at the same time they
are willing that their neighbors
should have equal opportunities
for themselves and their children.
This is the true American ideal
and purpose. Those who feel or
act otherwise are not good Amer
leans. 1t matters not whether
they be monopolists who selhshly
seek to absorb all the good at the
expense of others, or socialists
who desire to reap where they
have not sowed, and gather
where they have not strewn, they
are not types of the dominant cit
izenship of this country. Prosper
ity and morality are boundto to
prevail when they go hand in
hand.

GOSHEN HAS A NEW
RAILROAD ON PAPER
1t Would Connect With Winona
Line, Securing Inlet for
Travel to Warsaw.

Another interurban line is plan
ned for Goshen, and il built it will
secure another inlet to Wmona
traffic. The new road as planned
will run between Goshen and
Kendalville, through Ligonier and
with spurs to Albion and Rome
City, and connecting with the
main line at Brimheld.
The Goshen men interested
are Frank p. Abott of the Lesh-
Prouty-Abbott Lumber company,
Haines Egbert of the Sanders-Eg-
bert Lumber company and Har-
vey A. Banta Of the Banta Fur
niture company. Associated with
these men are II. |. Park, c. c..
Boyer and Z. Z. McCray of Ken
dalville, Boyer OF Boyer Bros. &
Company, and McCray OF the Nc
Cray Refrigerator company OF
Kendalville and ex-mayor Fred
Green, Fred Wier and Frank
Boutwell, OF Ligonier.
The road is to be an electric
railway and since it will run
through one OF the richest local
tiles in northern Indiana, there is
absolutely no question as to
whether it would be paying
proposition. The road would con-
meet at Goshen with the c. S. B.
& n. |. interurban line and at
Kendalville within a short time
with the Toledo & Western.
incorporation papers have been
filed with the secretary of state by
Attrney II. A. Redmond of Ken
dalville. The company at present
is incorporated for only $4,000
but the capital stock will be in
creased as bonds are issued later
on. There is evidence OF plenty
of money back of the project and
prospects are rosy for new inter
urban line.
The road would be. in direct
competition in a way with Buck.
lens Valley Line, which he re-
fused to run through Goshen.
The name as incorporated is
the Kendalville. Ligonier & Gosh
Ell Traction company.

THE bought
GETS SERIOUS
RAIN FALL IN NEARLY
TWO MONTHS HAS NOT
AMOUNTED TO AS
MUCH AS THREE
INCHES-DAM-
AGE GREAT.

For nearly two months the to-
tai amount of the rainfall for this
city and vicinity has not been 3
inches, and since August 3 there
has been no rain whatever. The
condition of the country is be-
coming alarming unless there is
rain within a short time it is ex-
pected that the damage will be
heavy.
The drought appears to be gen
eral all over the country and
while the city of Plymouth has
not been affected on account OF
its bountiful water supply and the
way in which the water system is
managed, other cities are in need.
In the vicinity of Pittsburg it is
estimated that the drought is
causing a loss of 100000 a day
and wells have gone dry for the
first time in twenty years. Farm
ers in many portions OF .Pennsyl-
vania are feeding their growing
crops to their cattle and water
wagons are sent out to the fields
to keep the cows alive. Some of
the expensive private reservoirs
are but Shiny pools, covered with
green film on account OF the
source of the water supply play
ing out.
At many Of the state lnstitu-
tons baths have. been forbidden
for over two weeks and the health
departments have become alarm
ed. One institutions with LOO
inmates has not had drop OF wa
ter used in a bath tub for the past
fifteen days. In some OF the
smaller towns the authorities
have forbidden the use OF the bath
tub oftener than once week.
Field Fires Are Common.
In portions OF Indiana the rail-
roads are compelled to haul water
for use of their locomotives, the
pumping stations having'become
exhausted. and river men have
stated that the Ohio river is lower
at this time than at any period in
twenty-five years. Field fires are
also common and when occurring
no effort is made to use water for
putting them out.
In many sections of this coun-
try the dust on the roads is at
least six or seven inches deep and
lawns and vegetation has been lit
orally burned up. The Little
Blue, in the vicinity of Shelby
Vile is about dry, lower than IT
has ever been in the history OF the
state. Cisterns everywhere have
dried up and many people over
the state are filling the cisterns
with river water when obtainable.

The temperance question seems
to break out at the most unlocked
for places these days. The other
evening at a "belling' of a newly

not agree whether to spend the

After long and somewhat heat
