Gettysburg.

Lee Warmers had visitors last
week from Covington.
Miss Lizzie Moul, sojourning
at Ironton for several months,
returned home last Saturday
evening to remain a short time.
A terrific rain and hail storm
visited this place last Thursday
night, causing some washouts
and doing great damage to our
roads. Hail were piled up in
places to the depth of about one
foot.
Our Bank has partially moved
in the new building; the final act
in establishing the Bank in its
new quarters will take place in
course of a short time, when the
convenience and appearance will
be largely enhanced and business
correspondingly increased.
Joe EIiker and wife, w. Hor-
inc, wife, two daughters and
son, of New Madison, were the
guests of Samuel Hershey's FAM
lily yesterday.
Spring is opening with a build
ing push, and already our fellow
citizen, L. Warner, has barn
under roof, begun last week. II
this is an initiation of what will
happen during the summer we
may expect the building boom t.
continue this season as in the
past.
A partial loss of eyesight sud-
denly came upon l. Hershey last
week, and from which recovery
is coming slowly, if any change
| is found at all. Affections of any
kind are sad enough, but loss OF
sight is indeed sad.
Well, what shall we say about
the deliverance of our State con-
vention of last week? | think it
may be reasonably said that it
did a good work-the ticket, SC
far as know, is good, and the
platform is excellent, and that it
will be ratified by a large Repub-
lican majority next November
goes without saying. Republi-
canism is bearing excellent fruit,
and the sensible people of the
country will approve its work.

Seed Corn for the Season of 1908.

Seed Corn for the Season of 1908.
In all probability high grade
seed corn is scarcer in Ohio this |!
season than for many years. The Z,
principal cause for this is of
course the cold, wet growing sea-
son of last year, together with
the cool, cloudy fall. Had we
had a different October and No
vember, even, corn which did
mature, or came close to matur-
ity, would now be in very differ
ent seed condition. AS matters
stand great care must needs be
exercised or 1908 will find Ohio
with one of the poorest corn
crops in years.
Very many growers all over
Ohio, and particularly in the
northern half of the state, will
have to buy their seed corn.
Such growers are confronted
with a serious question, namely:
Will this purchased seed prove
adapted to the new locality? Will
it mature? And still more Sc
rious question confronts all corn
growers will my seed corn grow?

Senator LaFollette goes about
the country telling the public
that he is constantly "hazed" by
the older Republican senators.
And yet Senator Aldrich has a.
greed to postpone the vote on his
financial bill more than a week
in order to permit Mr.. LaFollette
to make a two-day speech on his
amendment to the Aldrich bill.

1t is entirely natural that there
should be dismay in the Demo
cratic camp over the news that
the Republican party purposes tC
undertake, next winter, the re.
vision Of the tariff. The lower
ing of the Dingley schedules has
been the one practical plank with
which the Democrats hoped tc
appeal to the country. And now
they are bereft of that. More.
over, every thinking reviSionist.
even in the Democratic party,
must vote the Republican ticket
if he is true to his convictions.
He must realize that even if there
were elected Democratic presi-
dent and Democratic House the
Senate would remain hopeless
ly' Republican for at least anoth-
er administration and that under
such circumstances any tariff
measure would result only in a
deadlock. If he really wants
tariff revision, therefore, he must
vote for a Republican president
and a Republican congressman.

Sir Robert Ball, the famous as
tronomer, in talking about the dis.
tance of the stars once said that a
telegram sent at the usual speed of
kilograms over the wire would take
seventy-eight Years to reach the
most distant star that the telescope
enables us to see. But the camera
has revealed stars that the telescope
has not, and Some Of them are 50
distant that if Il telegram had been
sent to them in the year THAT is
to say, 1907 years ago-it would
only now be reaching its destina-
ton. Only by some such illustra-
ton as this can we form any concep-
ton of how far away the fixed stars
are.-Chicago News.

"That famous railroad m IN, the
late Samuel Sloan," said New

hated slow ones. They tell story
about a trick he once played on a
railroad whose service was noto-
riously slow.
Having several times to use this

which he took from his pocket and
hung in front of one Of the cars
when nobody was looking. The sign
said, Passengers are requested not

There are some good reasons
why railroad bonds should be in
cluded in the Aldrich bill and
some excellent reasons why they
should not. Altogether, we rath-

dominate and that Congress will
see it in that light.

1t is reported that in their dis
pair over the tariff situation, the
Democrats purpose to adopt some
sort of prohibition plank with
the hope of absorbing the Prohi-
bition party, asthey absorbed
the Populist party in 1896. Con-
sidering the acute Indigestion
which Miss Democrat
cy has suffered ever since she
swallowed the Pops, we should
suppose she would be chary of
adopting a diet to which Demo-
Gratis are as unaccustomed as they
are to prohibition.

Wilmer Atkinson has fooled the
country with a pamphlet con-
demning the laws governing Sec
ond class mail matter. The con-
stitution provides for the free
dom of the press and from that
Mr.. Atkinson argues that Con-
gress has no right to say what
are and what are not legitimate
newspapers and therefore enti-
tied to the use of the mails at
the pound rate. The logic of Mr..
Atkinson's argument is that ev-
cry advertising sheet, every
newspaper published solely to ex-
plot a mail-order house, etc.,
should be carried the same as a
newspaper, because the consti-
tuition forbids Congress to dis
criminate. But why does not
his logic go a step farther? If
Congress has no right to say
what is a legitimate newspaper
and therefore entitled to news
paper postage, how has it any
right to prescribe any newspaper
postage rate at all?
