Westherford, Feb. 9. 1908
Dear BILL
| have noticed with considerable
interest the letter from Old Mexi-
co from Chas. Brooker. Jim Slim
and others and as | make the larg.
er towns of the Republic and am
familiar with at least part of the
country referred and some of the
people mentioned L can not for
hear writing and 6ni ;hing the
story of the Barton County bunch
in Monterey as told to me by
conductor Morgan recently while
| was going from Monterey to..yic-
toria on the Central. Of course |
cannot vouch for the truth Of this
story but can only refer any one
to Mr.. Morgan. Chas. BROKER or
Fred Livingston for further testi
mony. 1t appears that when the
bunch bit Monterey they stopped
at the Windsor. hotel with an
American name but otherwise
straight Mexican and when the
bunch came to order breakfast
they found themselves up against
a Mexican bill of fare and Mexican
walters, and on ordering bacon and
eggs the only satisfaction they
could get was "kieu sabe''. They
tried holding their hands in the
shape Of eggs and the waiter
brought them lemons. Finally as
a last resort one got up and
cackled like a hen and another
got down on all fours and grunted
like a hog and they ali pot bacon
and eggs.
l notice also that they went up
against the custom officer on the
other side and turned up short q
revolver or gun. The Mexican
government is very strict on rifles
at the present time on account OF
trouble with the Yacaui Indians
in the State Of Sonora. They
never allow a shotgun to be taken
in bond though it is necessary fol-

broker to help him out but the

Writ Bits Bucket Shops q Blow.

Judge Brooks in the Hamilton
County Minnesota district court
issued an Injunction in the case of
the Minneapolis chamber of CON-
nerce against ". S. Daggart which
is considered the most severe blow
administered to bucket shops since
proceedings we're instituted
against them. The fight conferred
around the use of their regular
exchange quotations furnished BY
he ticker" services, the defen-
dant claiming he had a right to
use quotations obtained by that
means. Judge Brooks he'd that
the quotations of the chamber of
commerce are private property,
and eDjoiued the defendant from
using any ticker services and from
posting any prices that claim To
have a basis on the floor of the
chamber Of commerce.

charge is reasonable. The last
time ] went through Juerez. Mr..
|. ]. Wooodside got shot guns
through for four different tourists.
As for the revolver if it is stuck
in your hip pocket It will never
be bothered.
It is small wonder the Mexican
people want a duty from US as We
certainly hold them up on their
goods. Take cigars for instance.
the dlty coming iuto the United
States is 81 50 per pound on weight
Of tobacco with twenty five per
cent sdvalornm duty on top Of
this and 80 cents per hundred for
revenue stamps. making it prohibi-
tive On Tequils and Muscel the
duty is also probibitive. As q re-
suit while YOU can buy American
tobacco for about double price in
Mexico you can not buy Mexican
cigars on this side alta American
whisky in Mexico costs 25 cents
per drink, Mexican which is about
the same as on this side.
On implements and wagons the
duty is nominal only 54cen is per.
kilo, on delivery or business wag-
obs it is 90 cents per kilo or the
FIRST 200 kilos and 81 cents on the
balance. but on buggies it is verv
high, being &c cents per kilo
which is 80 cents perpound. A kilo
is two and one fifth pound.
President Diaz is simply bidding
for factories with a high proteo-
tive duty on msnufacted articles
and nominal duty on the goods in
an unfinished state.
On steel goods the American
steel corporation is today quoting
prices to the Mexican trade 10 per
cent less than on this side
In returning from Mexico Q
tourist is allowed 500 worth Of
goods dutv free also so cigars or
300 cigarettes.
This means $4,000 gold and may
consist Of wearing apparel, drawn
work, lace and curious. This rule
does not apply from any port Of
entry but only to those returning
from the interior.
In regard to the Tampico coun-
try and the eastern part OF the
state Of Tsmsulipas the country is
very rich and there are undoubted.
Iy good opportunities there, also
real estate agents that will take
your money and not give much in
return. There are also few ticks
but probably no more ticks there
than chigpars on the Walnut and
the ticks are easier found when
they take up with one.
II you can find out which one
cackled:: and which one grunted

Paris Pattern No 1888, All Seams Allowed.-A delightfully."- convenient negligee is this pretty example of pink figured challis ornamented with . selfcolored belt ribbon, tied in front. and a narrow edging of Torchon lace on the deep pointed collar and sleeve band. This deep lay-down collar nlRy be omitted if desired. The sleeves are in three-quarter' length. There are lines of shirring in the front and back. held in place by the inside band. The pattern is in seven sizes-32 to A inches. bust measure. For 36 bust the dressing-sack requires 51l yards of material 20 inches wide. three yards 3e inches wide, or PA yards 42 inches wide; two yards of ribbon for ties and five yards of edging to trim.
 To procure this pattern send 10 cents to Pattern Department" of this paper. Write name and address plainly. and be sure to give sise and number of pattern.

Preamble.
 We, the representatives of Democ- racy of the United States, in national convention assembled. reaffirm our be- lief in and pledge our loyalty to the principles of the party. We rejoice at the increasing signs of an awaken ing throughout the country The va- rious investigations have traced great political corruption to the representa-. tives of predatory wealth and laid bare the interruptions methods by which they have debauched election and prey ed upon defenseless public through the subservient officials whom they have raised to place and power.
 The conscience of the nation is now aroused to free the government from the grip of those who have made it a mbusiness asset of the favor-seeking corporations; it must become again a peoples government and be admin. istered in all its departments accord. ing to the Jeffersonian maxim, Equal rights to all and special privileges to none"
 Shall the people ruler" is the over. shadowing issue which manifests it. self in all the questions now under dis cussiOn.
 Labor and Injunctions.
 The courts of justice are the bull wark of our liberties, and we yield tc none in our purpose to maintain theil dignity. Our party has given the bench long line of distinguished judges who have added to the respect and confidence in which this department must be jealously maintained. We re sent the attempt of the Republican party to raise false Issues respecting the judiciary. It is an unjust reflec tion upon great body of our citizens to assume that they lack respect oi the courts.
 It is the function of the courts to interpret the laws which the people create, and if the laws appear to work economic, social or political injustice il is our duty to change them. The only

 Railroads.
 We assert the right of congress to exercise complete control over inter. state commerce and the right of each state to exercise just as complete a control over commerce within its bor. ders.
 We demand sucl enlargement of the powers of the interstate commerce commission as may be necessary to enable it to protect persons and places from indiscrimination and extortion and to compel the railroads to perform their duties as common carriers. We favor the efficient supervision and state regulation of railroads en gagged in interstate commerce. TC this end we recommend the physica valuation of the railroads by the inter state commerce commission, such val uation to take into consideration tht original cost of construction and al elements of value that will render thu valuation made fair and just.

age. Mrs. Mahin died a year ago last
February and since that time Rev.
Mahin has made his home with his
daughter, Mrs. Hattie NJ. Polk.
Later and during his career as a
Methodist minister, he was stationed
at Bluffton, Upton, New Castle, Ross
Vile. PerryvilIe, Charlottesville,
Knightstown, Fort Wayne, South
Bend, Logansport, Huntington, Peru,
Richmond, Versailles and Atkinson,
Kan. Rev. Mahin was pastor of the
1864 The building used at that time
is now owned by the city as city
building and the Methodists have
since erected a commodious church at
a cost of $4,000 He made the trip
overland to Atkinson, Kan, in 1859
and returned in like manner in 1861,
being there when the war broke out.
In 1860 he was associated with Sena-
tor Pomeroy as an agent Of the Kansas
relief association and distributed sup
plies to the Kansas famine sufferers.
He also served at one time as a
trustee of Depauw university. Rev.
Mahin retired from active work in
the ministry thirteen years ago, but
in spite of this fact and the fact that
he is well along in years, he breaches
at some point every Sunday and is ever
ready and willing to answer a call
to any point in the conference. He is
one of the oldest, if not the oldest
minister in the conference, and never
misses attending the annual meeting
unless his health forbids. Two of his
children reside in this city-Edwin
Mar, the present city clerk, and
Mrs. Hattie M. Polk, with whom he
makes his home. The other children
are Milton Mahin, Jr., of st. Joseph,
Mo-. and w. d. Mahin, OF Kokomo.
In spite of his age Mr.. Mahin's SER
mons are always full of interest and
to drop back and be superseded by
the younger ministers. His opinion on
temperance is well known and in those
causes he is always found in the
front rank of the workers, as was the
case during the fight against the sal
oons in this city year ago.
Committees are now arranging for
Sundays honor to the aged minister
and it promises to be largely partici-
pated ill.,
A handsomely printed four page
program of the days celebration has
been issued and on the front page is
an excellent half tone picture of Rev.
Mahin. The program takes in the
entire day and every department of
the church will will have a part in
honoring the veteran minister. The
program is to be inaugurated in the
morning and will close at night.

low During the Blow.
A story is told of a well known anna
teur yachtsman who was one night
anchored near a rocky and dangerous
shore. Suddenly, just before dinner. a
stiff inshore wind started up. The an
Choir began to drag. Another was rap
idly thrown overheard, but in the in
creasing squall that, too, failed to hold.
The schooner seemed in imminent dan
ger of drifting on the rocks, but at last
another anchor gripped. and the dan
ger was past.
The yachtsman, nearly exhausted
from his efforts, dropped on the deck
to recover his breath and rest. In the
quiet that followed there came to his
ears the click click-clack- click-clack of
a busily manipulated spoon against a
bowl
He listened for a moment and then
went below. The cook was preparing
salad dressing,
"Why, SAM" he exclaimed in aston
ishment, didn't you know that we
nearly went ashore?''
"Oh, yassir, yassir," came the undis-
turbed reply. Il thought she was goin'
on de rocks. suah."
"Well, in a case like that don't you
ever go up on deck? We had mighty
close call"

can't leave mayonnaise a minute,
cause it'll turn right back."-Youth's
