Lisbon Free Press: We hear a
good deal these days about the gang"
seems to be the shibboleth and raj
lying cry of certain self-styled re-
formers who go abroad through the
state crying the "the gang, the gang"
As this is the main argument of a
number of these alleged reformers,
we propose to analyze the word and
see what horrible things the analysis
discloses. BY gang" is meant or
ganization, and organizations are usu-
ally headed by leaders. These lead
ers are ordinary men of prominence
in their communities, as of necessity
they must be, in order to be conceded

are all estimable persons, and are in

Tina Grand Forks Press, which
threatened to die several weeks ago,
has made good its threat and died at
the second attempt. The death of the
Press appears to have followed close
w the death of the johnson boom for
president. The Press was an ardent
johnson organ. and its editor sought
to summon the rank and file of the
party to the support of the Minnesota
man. but the task'was too great. The

to debating the vote of Enderlin
These latter gentlemen now sail un-
der the flag of insurgentism and swear
allegiance to the latest movement of
this nature.
AS to what can properly be termed
the gang in state politics, we have
simply to name two very familiar
persons, who are the directors and
leaders of this so-called movement.
Simple mention of their names is suf-
ficient to indicate the character of
this movement. These two are Twich-
ell of Cass, now candidate for govern
or, and Marshall of Dickey, candi-
date for United States senator. two
dyed in the wool gangsters of late
conversion and the acknowledged
leaders of this movement. 1t is a
!. strange coincidence that these same
gentlemen are seeking the two high

ers of North Dakota.
| We need go no further in our illus
tration of what is meant by the
gang" These facts speak louder
than any words that we could print,
and we believe that the intelligent
voter, when he hears the argument of
the gang being used by these parties
or their supporters will rightly call
upon them for further proof before
giving them consideration for their
claims, and would be justified in his
conclusions that when such arguments
are used. that there is a niger in the
woodpile'' somewhere that the per-
sons using it are trying to cover.

Obituary.

The deceased, ]. c. Marsh,
was born in Neave township,
Darke county, O., on October II,
1881, and at his death was 26
years, 8 months and 26 days old.
He leaves a wife, father, moth
er, a sister, and three brothers,
besides numerous other relatives
and friends to mourn his early
departure.
Early in childhood he was left
without a home, and after dwell
ing temporarily among strang-
ers, was placed in the Orphans
Home of this county, where he
received the rudiments of an ed
ucation. After a time he was
placed by the Trustees of the
Home among strangers and for a
short period was separated from
from his parents, sister and
brothers.
Being a very industrious boy,
he soon became dissatisfied with
mere dependence upon others
and with that self-reliance, which
is characteristic of his family, he
early sought independence from
under the guidance of the Home
and launched upon a career of
industry and close attention to
business, which won for him
many friends. After a brief stay
with his brothers in the winter
of 1903, in Illinois, he returned
to Ohio to work for his uncle, j.
w. Markwith, for whom he lab
ored three years. He also worked
for VIM. Robbins for a period of
six years, with whom he was liv-
ing when ushered into eternity
in the prime of life.
To say the least, he was a sue
cessful auctioneer of no mean
ability. He was married to Miss
Bertha Hawes on November 9,
1907, and they had made all ar
rangements to provide a home
for themselves near Ninevah,
Van Buren township, this coun-
ty. He was a member of the l.
0. O. F. and K. G. E., among
whom he made many friends.
Funeral services were held at
Abbottsville Wednesday after

"Our New Minister"

Manager Deardourff brings
Denman Thompson and Geo. W.
Ryer's delightful comedy drama,
"Our New Minister" for a re-
turn date on Friday evening,
Feb. 81. But little remains to
be said of this play, or of it's per-
formance. 1t is a realistic por-
trayalOf life in a small rural
community, which has for it's
chief charm not more in the life
represented than in it's repre-
sentation. 1t will improve with
age, like wine, and public appre-
citation will grow stronger and
more emphatic with longer ex-
perience. 1t is a play which, for
many reasons, we cannot afford
not to have seen. Personally,
it's effect is satisfying, the story
is absorbing, though simple, its
characters fasten themselves up.
on the credulity and affection
and it's effect is so deliciously re-
freshing and bettering that one
almost cries for very joy. Tht
authors have gone straight tt
the heart Of nature for their sto
ry and their characters. Wha

italy every part is played. TIL

Recent German trials indicate that
the separator removes from the milk

which pass through the strainer, but
the greater portion of the bacteria. AS
COWS are usually cared for and handled
there are always some dirt and dandruff
from the cows udder that get into the
milk. These cannot always be caught in
