THAT VOICE REFORM.

What, tone our voices DOWN.
We speak too loud?
But how else win renown
Among the crowd?
Our tone is far too shrill?
We fairly screech?
But with a softer trill
Who'd hear our speech?
II we should not hand out
A high-priced scream
We might, without a doubt,
AS well just dream.
Talk must be loud and long
And high. Each word
Must piercingly be strong
II 'tWould be heard.
Aye. it makes quite a din
That. well we know;
But If one would stay in
The push and show
His merit to the crowd,
There's just one test.
And that's to talk as loud
AS all the rest.

SEXTON CASE AFFIRMED
Charles Sexton Must Serve Three
 Years For Attempted Assault

The supreme court on last MOn- day rendered a decision in the case of Charles Sexton vs. the State, appealed from this county. the supreme court affirming the de- cision of the lower court.
 Sexton was convicted in the h. dependence Circuit Court of at- tempted criminal assault upon Miss Maud Bethel, and was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary.
 Counsel for Sexton objected to the admission of certain evidence, on the ground that 1t was preju- dlclal without being relevant. Ger tain instructions of the court were also objected to as erroneous. The supreme court, however, declined to disturb the verdict, declaring that Sexton had secured a fair trial, and in view of the leniency of the trial court in reducing the original indictment from charge of assault to that of attempt, the defendant had no ground for com plaining at his sentence. The judg- ment was therefore affirmed.
 Sexton lives in Black River township, and he and the young lady both come of good families.

ESTIMATE OF
 THE COUNTRY EDITOR

MT. Bryan's estimate of country newspaper editors is shown in a letter which he recently wrote, saying:"I am glad to commend the work of the country newspaper. It can be owned by the editor who edits 1t and therefore. has behind it concience and character which can be identified, which is close to the people and can give voice to the sentiment of its readers. We have to depend more and more up- on the country papers for an edu- cational work that Is necessary to 8 correct understanding of public questions. There is lot of diff ference between & man who writes what he is told to write and man who writes what he believes is a message to his readers. At this time, when the great dailies are becoming more and more business enterprises rather than opponents of opinion and especially when a number of them have become the property of predatory interests, the country newspaper increases in importance.
