Mr. Wicksall stated to several OF
his Paw Paw friends that he
would be an active candidate for
the honors. Mr.. Wicksall is a
prominent lawyer in South Ha-
ven, was a member of the Con
stitutional convention, and has
been prominent in the political
arena OF the county for many
years. The announcement of
his candidacy will undoubtedly
meet with favor among his many
friends in the county.
1t is not known at this time
whether or not there will be
other candidates for this impOr-
tant office. Allegan county will
in all probability not present
one, but it is quite probable that
there may be other aspirants in
Van Buren, county. Several
names have been suggested as
probable candidates, but wheth-
er they will conclude to fight it
out with Mr.. WicksalI at the
primaries is a question.

An Enolishnan in PHILADELPHIA.

81 was in Philadelphia the other
day." said an Englishman resident in
New York, land having a lt1 leisure
to dispose of and also some Huriosity
to be satisfied l took passage on one
of those rubberneck vehicles and list
ened to the professor in charge. He
told us a great LOT of things about the
town that were quite interesting and
unknown in New York, but the most
remarkable information he gave US
was about the large statue of the late
William Penn at the top of the city
hall tower. He said the nose of the
figure was Is inches long and if it
were an inch shorter the nose would
be a foot. Most of the sightseers
laughed, but why? 1t seems to me
that if Mr.. Penn had a foot growing
out of his face it would not only be
quite unbecoming but would really
be misfortune"

For state senator.

Among the important officers
to be elected next fall is that of
state senator. The eighth sena-
torial district, composed of Ale
gan and Van Buren, counties, has
followed a precedent OF alternat-
ing in the choice Of senator for
the district. The present sena-
tor is Hon. r.. n. Bates OF Mo
line, Allegan county, who has
served two terms, and following
the amiable relations that have
existed between the two counties
in the past, it will be Van Blu
ren's turn to name the senator at
the coming primaries next year.
1t has been a matter Of conjec-
ture for some time as to who the
probable candidates for this inn
portant office would be. 1t has
been a matter of political gossip
that Attorney Guy Wicksall Of
South Haven would aspire to the
office, and the rumors were con.
firmed early in the week, W en-

Personal Liberty.

A favorite argument with
those persons who desire to have
Van Buren, transferred to the
"wets" is that the present law
interferes with personal liberty.
Listen to the voice Of William
Jennings Bryan, the idol of mil
lions of his fellow citizens and
acknowledged by all to be one of
Americas foremost men. Writ
ing on this topic in his paper,
The Commoner, he says:
at is time the phrase person
al liberty, were defined. What
is meant by personal liberty
Does it mean that person has
right to drink in any quantity,
any time and at any place, no
matter what injury he may in
flict upon others? If not, with
whom rests the right to fix limi-
tations?
"A drunken man is menace
to the lives and property OF
those about him; have his neigh
bors no right to protect them
selves?
"A drunkard robs his wife and
children, and he may finally
make his family and himself a
charge upon society. Has society
no right to protect itself?
THE saloon is next of kin to
the brothel and the gambling
hall; it is a rendezvous for the
criminal element and the willing
tool Of corrupt politicians Has
not the body polite a right to
protect itself from the democrat
ization which the saloon works.
These questions asked by Mr..
Bryan are of the kind that need
no specific answer, the mere ask
ing implies most emphatic af-
firmative.
This personal liberty" cry
raised by advocates of the liquor
traffic must be numbered the
other claptrap that is so freely
used to befog the real situation
and, perchance, to capture here
and there vote.
A man has no more right tC
engage in the liquor business to
the injury of others or to the
detriment of society than he has
to keep a gambling resort or g
house of ill-fame. To suppress
one of these institution is as
much of an interference with
personal liberty as it is to sup
press saloon.

TWENTY years ago Van Buren,
drove the beast from her Dor
ders. He has been growing
around on the outside ever since
but has been foiled in every
attempt to cross the county line.
He is now preparing for another
effort, more desperate than any
previous one. Shall we let him
in? Most emphatically NO.

G.. S. EASTON, who recently
became editor aud proprietor of
the Lawrence Times, is a live
newspaper man. Many improve

the columns Of the Times, and
the people of Lawrence are to be
congratulated. They should and
undoubtedly will give the new
management the patronage it
seems to merit.

Turkeys and History.

How was the bird chosen for
his post Of honor? When crops
failed, our Pilgrim Fathers were
forced to fall back on what their
snares or fowling- pieces could
bring. AS wild turkeys were
not uncommon, that dish became
associated with festivity, In an
old work called "The New Eng
land Canaan, we read: "Turkies
there are, which divers times in
great flocks have sailed by our
doors; land then a gun being com
monty in readinesse) salutes
them with such a courtesie, to
makes them take a turn in the
cooke room. OF these there hath
been killed, that have weighed
forty eight pound apiece. y The
Puritan head Of a family, severe
as he was, saw nothing irrelig-
ious in plentitude of food.
The turkey earned his perilous
distinction because the Pilgrim
was willing to celebrate heaven 5
blessings with a feast, and be-
cause he, the turkey, happened
to be grateful to the Pilgrim S
palate and handy to the Pill
grim's gun. Golfers Weekly.

that farmer or an inexperienced per-
son can do his own repair work. No
dirt, and so easy to control that a lady
can manage the machine fully as we'll

purchase of any other machine, we

NaI's peculiar Actions.

There is a black cat on Railroad
street, Thomaston. Conn, that makes
a point of escorting women and chill
dren home. When the party reaches
its destination the cat returns to its
place and escorts other persons in the
same way, keeping up this strange ac-
ton until about 10 o'clock at night

The local option law has moth
ing to say about what a man
shall drink any more than what
he shall eat. 1t only prohibits
the manufacture and sale of in
toXicating liquors within the lin

arrested and punished for drunk
enness, it is not by virtue of any
provision of the local option law
but by authority Of another stat

BUSINESS MEN AND EXERCISE
Too Many Positively Neglect the Saw

ing Until Too Late.

The recent assertion of a prominent
physician that SO per cent. of the bust
ness and professional men in Amer
lean cities are sufferers from functional
heart trouble, or chronic indigestion,
simply because they will not take any
bodily exercise, brings home one of
the most astonishing truths OF the
present day, and one that should be
recognized by every man and woman
in the country. Every day the metro
politan papers contain scores of no.
tees OF the illness of lawyers, bank
ers, merchants and others of their
kind, who have been forced into re-
tirement by the continual strain of
business without the saving antidote of
physical training. Any day when bust
ness 1t at its height a physician can
point out scores of men on the streets
and in office buildings who are sallow
and irritable with nervous disorders,
and any person may see hundreds of
old and young men hurrying about
their daily routine with drawn faces
and staring eyes, almost on the verge
of collapse. In almost every bank.
store and office in the city are clerks
with hollow chests and trembling
hands, whose labors are a constant
strain upon them and whose leisure
brings no regeneration All of these
are truly going the pace that kills"
In short time. no matter what the
number OF their years may be. they

sacrificed in the rush and strain Of
business. And the panacea for all of
their Ills is-exercise.-The Book

Chicago, March 25.-There seemed to

Prices were strong to higher, and sup

were in best demand

The five principal points were cred

Wool kinds were strong. and clipped
stuff was about steady, with an occa-

Supply in the west is heavy, $4,000

points yesterday. against $4,000 "a year

fast and these markets have received
10000 more in three days this week
than a yedr ago. Feeders in the west
are short of hay, prices are attractive
at THE market, the stuff is cashing in
at profit and corn is too high to

had the preference but the spread be-
tween the two classes is now wide.
