himself after Cameron had passed on
toward his home, "dah am sholy some

in happy frame of mind and wan
dered off toward his home, whistling.
He was around bright and early the
next day, and when Cameron came
along on his way to his Office made
it particular point to see that he was
not overlooked.

Hours later, when the flying snow
was painting the dusk a speckled
black, Cameron came back along the
sidewalk more slowly and uncertain
ly than ever. 1t was Christmas eve,
and Midnight felt at peace with all
the world. People were flying past,
their arms laden with presents, and
all anxious to be home AS he stood
in a sheltered corner of his booth,
counting up his profits of the day, he
called to Cameron:

MI Cameron bluntly ignored
the cheerful greeting and
the newspaper which Mid
night, the colored newsboy, held out
for him, and walked on briskly down
the street, his gaze directed toward
the pavement. He hurried, absent
mindedly, to the elevated station, and
as he neared the steps stopped sud
denly, bought paper from news
stand close by, and then ran up to
catch a train that was laundering up
to the platform.
Midnight tumbled back against his
newsstand, a queer expression of be-
wilderment and sadness spreading
over his face.

All the rest of the day Midnight was
in sort of trance. He watched the
elevated stairway from early after
noon for the return of Cameron. His
fitful vigil was rewarded when the
| young lawyer walked wearily down
the steps. Midnight watched his
every move jealously to see whether
he purchased an afternoon paper from
his rivals. Cameron stopped at the
little negro's stand
Good evening, Midnight" he said

An Editorial we Don't Write

The following editorial is taken from
the Jackson Patriot of Tuesday, No.
vember 1G:
The state convention Of the Michi-
gan Retail Implement and Vehicle
Dealers association at Flint. Thursday
last, voted to hold its next years con.
vention in Jackson. Detroit extended
an invitation and its delegates worked
TO secure the convention, but a major
Try of the delegates favored Jackson
because it is saloonless town.
Such, the Patriot is informed was
the real reason for preferripg this city
over Detroits The delegates had the
memory of previous conventions in
mind when they came to Flint. They
were all men of affairs, but the saloons
had interfered more or less with the
business which the convention set out
to accomplish. Without the saloons
the social drink which was, sometimes
extended to the embarrassment of the
work of the convention. was not taken,
and the work was better done. And
when it came to determining a place
for the next convention, the Jackson
delegates, Messrs. Reid. Carlton and
Hanlon, laid stress on the local option
ess and local option was cheered.
The campaign claims of the anti.
optionists now sound like ancient
myths One after another the asser.
tions that city could not prosper with
ont saloons have been disproved Jack
son has prospercd without them. and
has not found the REIMBURSEMENT and
reasonable enforcement of laws difficult
with prosecuting attorney and sheriff
disposed to do their duty. One asser-
ton most frequently made was that
farmers would not trade in a city
where they could not secure drinkables,
and that conventions would be out of
the question. Farmers are trading
here just the same; and now Jackson
is chosen for an important convention
because of the absence of saloons
Already the benefits of the no. saloon
policy have been abundantly demon
strated.

Jack Dicken, the well known farmer,
living two and one. half miles south of
Ithaca has for the past several years
taken considerable interest in farming
lands located in the vicinity of Ashley.
Mr.. Dicken thought enough of the value
OF land to invest his money in number
OF farms, some of which he has sold at
a good profit, but he still owns a nice
lot of the land yet
On these farms Mr.. Dicken has been
doing some extensive thing, thereby
greatly improving the property The
land is great for beets and Mr.. Dicken
has leased to the Alma Sugar Co., one
hundred and seventy acres for next year
for which the company pays him the
nice little sum of $l70O. One 80. acre
piece. MIR Dicken has leased for the
past three years, receiving ten dollars
per acre for each year. In the three
years the land has nearly paid for itself
without Mr.. Dicken doing any of the
work. This is certainly making land

ing begging.-Gratot Journal.
