ELIAS MASON REUNION.
Good Old Couple Celebrate Together
the Husbands Birthday.

On March 18th, 1881, Elias Ma
son first saw the light on the farm
now owned by Dock QUITS, near Oak
way, this county. On the 18th of
March, 1908, Mr.. Mason was lam
gushing on a bed Of sickness and
could not celebrate his birth on that
MS seventy-seventh birthday, so he
postponed the celebration until the
glorious Fourth Of July.
At an early hour the children, 3
in number, 1O1 grandchildren, As
great-grandchildren, step children,
and one adopted child, and large
number of neighboB and friends,
perhaps $50. assembled to encourage
and extend hearty congratulations to
this good man and his good wife on
this festal occasion. The elements
above were spread with lowering
clouds and occasionally hard show
ers OF rain fell in torrents, with in
tervals of no rain long enough for a
sermon by the Rev. James F. Mason,
son OF Elias Mason, and his wife.
Mrs. Jane Mason. from the book of
Joseph PALS: Choose ye this day
whom We will serve" The preacher
presented true picture of life, in
which he illustrated the fact that all
men have a choice of the way that
leads to heaven and the way that
leads to ruin. In this service the
preacher reflected great credit upon
his parents and upon himself The
discourse was practical, forceful and
convincing.
Elias Mason was first married to
Miss Martha Hyde, October Is, 1851.
From this union six children were
born. In March, 1864, his wife
died. On October IS, 1865, Mr..
Mason was married to Mrs. Jane
Myers (nee McDonald). From this
marriage seven children were born.
Mr.. Mason entered the war between
the States at the beginning Of hostili-
ties and remained brave and true
throughout the four years. He joined
Bethel Baptist church in 1862 and
has remained a member to this day.
In his declining years his connection
with his church Is a great consola-
tion and JOY to him.
The dinner on this occasion was
bountiful and was prepared from
the fat of the land, Of which all,
without n single exception, ate heart
lily and to the full. 1t goes without
saying wherever Mr.. Mason Is knu Wn
that he is the embodiment Of indus
try, honesty and hospitality.
After dinner the intention of Mr..
Mason was to have sermon by his
pastor, Rev. w. E. Huff. who was
present, but the constant downpour
Of rain prevented this feature Of the
program. We feel that we voice the
sentiment OF all present when we
wish for these good people many
more years Of prosperity and happi-
ness and a final entranc. into that
haven OF rest prepared for the chosen
OF God. NeighbOr.

c, 0, P, Senatorial ASpirant Creates Big Scandal In
 Wisconsin,


 MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct IA sen sation in Wisconsin politics was sprung today by the announcement that Senator Isaac Stephenson will not make public his account of expenses incurred during the recent primary election until he is formally declared elected senator by the next legislature This means that his expenses will not become known until next January.
 Wisconsin has a law for publicity of campaign expenses, but the att,fF- ney general has given an opinion that Uncle Ike" need not make his. eN- penditures public until after he is elected by the legislature. The ether candidates in the senatorial race. how cVeT, have determined not to take ad- Vantage of what is geherat'y cunsid- cred loophole in the law; tTey will make their expenditures pubIis at Cnce.
 Senator Stepheuson's de.erninaii1a not tC let the lmount oi bis outlay be known until after he has been elected is of moment because it com plicates aE already badly complicated political situation in Wisconsin. It las intensified the determination of Stephenson's enemies in his own party F'' turn the legislature over to the Pemocrats. While Judge Taft will ap- pareDtly carry Wisconsin. Stephen sons stand will tend to weaken the Republican ticket in the Badger state all along the fine.
 The Milwaukee Journal, which has become the real LaFollette paper of the state since the Free Press has gone into the fight to put Stephenson in the Senate. says: "No sane person need longer doubt that Wisconsin is a doubtful state" It declares Senator Stephenson is a traitor to his party and a destroyer of states ideals.
