I believe that, as a nation, We are at times prone to follow teachers of politi- cal doctrines without insisting upon d prior demonstration of the sonndness of their teachings Here again, we might

You would want to examine his proposition In the light of your previous knowledge and experience.

adopted. Under this revised treatment, convalescence is proceeding slowly but satisfactorily All that the patient now needs to insure complete recovery is quiet and careful nursing with a firm application of corrective remedies to any Irregularities that may develop. The crisis through which he has passed has been so severe that an immediate return to full vigor cannot be expected. Time for recuperation will be required and. above all. it is important that during this period of convalescence he should be encouraged to recover con hdence in himself.

WILL HAVE A
FAMINE in ICE
ALL PUBLIC ICE HOUSES
IN CITY ARE ALMOST
EXHAUSTED-WILL
HAVE ICE SHIP
PED IN FOR
USE.

Plymouth and the surrounding
country is facing an ice famine.
Although it looks as though cold
weather has come and ice is being
eliminated from household eX-
penSeS, nevertheless the butcher,
the grocer, the saloon keeper and
others must be supplied in the
same old way. Oscar Tribbey
the local ice dealer, stated today,
that his ice supply will be COM
pletely exhausted in three days.
Great difficulty was experienced
in securing ice outside of this
city to be shipped in, for other
cities are also running short on
natural ice. This is true of Mar
ion, Warsaw and South Bend,
where application was made. Ar
rangements have been made how
ever to secure six car loads of ice
from the Maxinkuckee Ice Co.,
which will tide over for a time.
The reason for the famine is
that the past season has been es-
pecially good for the sale OF ice.
More ice was stored in the Pretty
Lake and Plymouth ice houses
last winter, than ever before.

HELD ON
FORGERY CHARGE.
South Bend Young Man in
Trouble at Benton Harbor.

On complaint of Edward Cry
an Harry Boyer, a South Bend
society young man who has been
doing the twin cities for the past
week, was arrested by Chief of
Police Johnson of Benton Harbor,
on a charge OF forgery. The
young man is now in the county
Jail awaiting to hear from his
father who was notified of his
sons arrest.
By representing that he was
Max Brown, Boyer was able to
cash a check for $3.50 at the Ben
ton Harbor State Bank, drawn on
the First National Bank OF Zanes-
town, O., and made payable to
the Golden Hill Liquor Co. and
signed by H. Boyer OF the same
place.
When the check was presented
to the bank, payment was refus-
ed unless the young man could
be identified Mr.. Cryan identified
Bower and the check was cashed.
Boyer is quite we'll known by
several of the young people OF
both cities, and has had a gay
time during his short visit.
He is about 20 years OF age, OF
medium height, dressed in the
seasons fashion, light pants and
dark coat.
Chief Johnson tracked the
young man to St. Joseph and no
tilted Chief NcAntee to nab him
as soon as he appeared on the
boat dock.

Another Trust Buster.

The acting chairman OF the
Democratic party at Chicago is
Mr.. John T.. Lamb, an adroit and
resourceful Democratic lawyer OF
Terre Haute who is collaborating
with Mr.. Bryan in his personally
conducted against the trusts. The
fitness of Mr.. Lamb for this high
position OF confidence and respon-
sibility is demonstrated by the
fact that he is general counsel for
the following named corporations
Terre Haute Brewing Co.
DUPONT Powder Company.
Bell telephone Company.
Big Four Railroad.
Vandalia Railroad.
Terre Haute Water Company.
Citizens Gas Company.
Chicago & Eastern Illinois K r
Evansville & Terre Haute r r
Terre Haute, Indianapolis &
Eastern Traction Company.
The chief activities of Mr..
Lamb in Indiana are those Of
protecting" the interests of his
breweries, railroads and traction
lines before the State Legislature
during whose sessions he is al
ways on hand with valuable adj
vice and suggestions. In the event
OF Bryan's election Mr.. Lamb
would be influential at Washing
ton. In the event of Democrat
lie Legislature in Indiana, he
would be a likely candidate for
the United States Senate. 1t is
OF such stuff as this that Mr.. Bry-
an s antitrust advisers are con-
stituted.
President Roosevelt's demon
stration OF Governor Haskell's
connection with Standard Oil is
not more impressive than is Mr..
Bryan's alliance with other trust
interests, such as John w. Kern,
attorney for Thomas Taggart's
gambling concern at French
Lick; Roger Sullivan, whom Mr..
Bryan has himself denominated
porch climber" and John E.
Lamb, who is attorney and lob
byist for ten corporations.
1t is difficult to see how Mr..
Bryan, in case of his election,
could disentangle himself from
these trust lawyers and magnates
in whose hands he has placed his
campaign. in Indiana, at least
the Democratic organization has
been captured, bag and baggage,
by these influences, to the exclu-
sion of all other elements OF the
party, and even at this hour it is
bringing all its resources to bear
upon the Legislature in special
session for the defeat of a local
option bill at the behest of the
Brewery Trust, which is fnanc-
ing its campaign.-Indianapo

DEATH OF OLD RESIDENT
Ignatius Mattingly Passes Away
at Argos Early Sunday
Morning.

Ignatius NJ Mattingly died at
his home in Argos, at 80 o'clock
Sunday morning, aged 81 years.
Mr.. Mattingly is an old time
printer, having at one time pub
lished with his father, the Bour-
bon Mirror from 1890 to 1896. He
has also been employed in the
Government Printing Office at
Washington, at Chicago, and has
worked for the Tribune office in
Plymouth.
Mr. Mattingly has been a resi-
dent OF Marshall county almost
all of his life, residing mostly in
Bourbon and in Plymouth. With
his wife he has resided in Argos
for two years.
He was married in 1876 to Miss
Susan Sheets of Bourbon, who as
a widow and three children, Chas.
W, editor of Journal, Topeka,
Ind, Mrs. Gertrude Baker Argos,
and Louis Chicago, survive him.
He has one brother, Charles, OF
Plymouth, and two sisters, Mrs
NJ. a. Cameron Washington ID.
c. and Mrs. a. c. Geddes, New
York City, living.
He was the son of Ignatius
Mattingly who published the Ply
mouth Republican from 1856 to
1868.
The funeral was held at the
residence in Argos, Tuesday
morning at 1000 o'clock. Funer-
al went overland ITO Bourbon

Purging the Parties.

In the language of the Count
OF Monte Christie, "Twol
Haskell has gone to join For
aker.
The great parties are purging
themselves of the dross of cor
ruption. The demand of the peo-
pie for clean records is being &C
coded to. The skies above are
clearing and this is the time for
disappearing for the tainted or
for any to whom suspicion may
reasonably attach.
The call is for clean campaign
The people demand it and the
platforms have promised it. The
party managers must make good
or step down and out. There must
be nothing in the results that will
give any corporation an oppor-
tunity to claim indulgence not
strictly in accordance with law
and harmony with the int. ests OF
the public, nor that will smack
of methods that will not stand
the light OF investigation.
No acts or utterances that will
keep the campaign free from i'm
proper influences and leave the
result of the election devoid OF
the slightest faint of corruption
will be considered mud clinging
by the people. If a man is spotted
as a corruptionist and cannot i'm
mediately show a clean, record he
must step aside. There is no time
now for investigation beyond
what is convincing on its face.
This campaign is limited express,
1t is moving at a lightning speed
and there are no stops between
terminals. The man who fails to
to stand the test must drop off
and take the consequences.
The people are for reform this
year. They want better morals
and better management of the
great interests that seek to con-
troll the affairs of the nation. The
wave OF Improvement in morals
and methods is sweeping the
country from ocean to ocean.
When it strikes the distractions
that are being piled up against il
on the third of November it will
wipe them off the earth.-South

SHORT CORN
CROP THIS YEAR
EFFECT OF THE
DROUTH is NOT EX-
PECTED TO BE FELT
so BAD IN THIS
SECTION OF
STATE.

Predictions from some of the
large market centers of the coun-
try are that the continued dry
weather recentlv broken tending
to make the price of corn soar,
will perhaps cause an inferior
quality OF that grain to go on the
market in December, to the grief
Of the American market.
\ local grain dealer in speaking
OF the probability of this report,
said that he considers the reports
truth quite probable, although in
all probability it viii not affect
the market in this section OF the
United States. The ground for
this belief is based on the fact
that the corn in this section is so
far above that in other parts of
the country, that there is a hope
that Indiana, Illinois and Ohio
will escape.
1t is a tendency OF farmers to
sell grain, no matter what the
quality, for the highest price they
can get, at the risk OF not having
enough to properly provide for
the stock in his possession. OF
course, this. in a large measure,
is only the promoting of human
nature, but the grain dealers, both
local and foreign, are hoping the
tiller of the soil will not let his
greed, if greed it be, get the adj
vantage OF his better judgment.
rs the foreign market of Ameri-
can grain will be heavier this
season than in perhaps the last
five years. it Will be to the best
interest of the American farmer
to put forth his best efforts to
make the quality of grain the for
eign countries will be compelled
to accept, the best possible. This
is in the interest of American
trade abroad.
Government reports Civ e
clover seed 90 per cent. this year
as against rs last year. This grad
ing includes bushels to the acre
the quality of the grain and II
other points OF judgment. Last
year the crop was a failure; this
year it is decided success in
spite of several minor pests
which threatened at times to put
a miserable ending to the crop.
In fact, the great market reports
say that the crop of clover seed
this year is the largest in years.

tain degree OF constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
