Mendon Mention.

The Mentioner has been asked
by several people who Alec is.
Did you ever?
Jas. Watts is one of the busiest
men in Mendon. Has all the car.
penter work that he and his men
can do and then some.
M. M. Hsnon ia making good
as the new cashier of the Mendon
State bank, and his friends are
rejoicing over his success.
Don't forget the reading at the
Christian church next Saturday
night nor the temperance rally at
the M. E. church Sunday night.
The Mendon Constitution of
last week was we'll filled with
local news and good reading
matter. Help the sditor and he
will help you. See?
There are q few foul mouthed,
profane young men in our town
who ought to be arrested and
fined to the limit of the law. some
day some one will knock their
teeth down their vile throats.
Rev. G. A. Lowe of st. Joseph,
Mo-, will OCCUPY the pulpit at the
Christian church next Sunday,
both morning and evening. Mr..
Lowe is the superintendent of
missions in the 7th district of
Missouri for the disciples. Do
not fail to hear him.
Our post office agitation is at
an end at last. Senator Warner
wrote Mr.. Allen and inclosed q
letter from the department at
Washington saying that Mr.. AL.
len had been re. inststed and the
charges proven false. Pretty
hard to oust q public official who
is in line with the administration
at Washington.
The graduating exercises at
the Christian church Friday
night were well attended and the
program gave general satisfac
ton. The oration by Alvin Ao.
cola was one of the best ever
heard ip Mendon. His subject
was: "Plus Ultra vs. Ne Plus
Ultra, or More Beyond VS.. No
More Beyond" Miss Ira Hardin
graduated at the same time and
received her diploma. The sd.
dress by Prof. u. 8. Hall of Glss.
gov ives we'll received, but we
heard on all sides that Mr.. Aceols
made the better speech of the
two. The musical part of the
program was up to the usual
standard and all went home
pleased. Alvin Accola is fitting
himself for civil engineering and
is taking the Scientific Ameri-
can, Technical World and the
Review of Reviews, the best pub.
locations in their line in America.

Tbs Law Will 3, Uphold.

The trial and conviction Of "Coot'
Lever, the negro wculd-be rapist, in
the Lexington court last week should
cause 81 more healthy sentiment in fa-
yor of letting the law take its course
in cases of this kind not only through
out Lexington, but all over the coun-
try. And it will. It shows conclu-
sivcly that the law is sufficient for
any emergency when allowed to pur-
sue its proper course. Lever will be
legally put to death by the sheriff On
the 25th Of February. All this stuff
about juries failing to convict in cases
Of this character is all bosh. If jury
fails to do its duty then it is time for
the people to take the law in their
own hands and see that the culprits
are properly dealt with. There is
nothing to be gained by MOB law,
even under the most extreme circum-
stances. Lexington county is to be
congratulated that none of her citi-
zens have the blood Of "Coot'' Lever
on their hands. The husband of the
intended victim is to be congratulated
for the manly stand be took through
out the trial of the case. He has set
an example for others to follow, and
Que that will win for him the respect
and admiration OF law-abiding people
everywhere.

beastly exhibition as was given in
Reno yesterday? One would think
that the supremacy achieved by John
son, struggling against such handi-
cap, would be conceded willingly. Is
James j. Jeffries the highest and best
type of the ''red-blooded" men of the
so-called civilized world? Is such a
spectacle as was presented yesterday
the fitting subject of the commenda-
ton of ministers of the holy gospel?
The fight has been fought. Let
it be the last one of it's kind. Let
pugilism's CORY sun set in the blood
of the Reno prize ring and human
Drawn and brain turn to goals more
worth winning, while common decency
and our boasted civilization rises
above such orgies of human british
ness and human depravity as have
characterized the past month in Reno.
Humanity has been on view at its
lowest ebb. 1t is time for the flow
