great benefit to crops. This was
practically the only rain of any con-
sequence which had fallen here dur
ing the month of June.

the ticket is one that will appeal to

who think that because Almighty
jeremiah Beveridge is running FOR
governor of Indiana on a bull moose
ticket that the republican party is
dead. will be sadly astonished when
the returns come in next November
Beveridge will run very poor third

observe that planks are for the own

TO think, is the largest number of
men and women who do not believe
the simplest and plainest facts.
When you consider Columbus in
the days when the world was square
and fiat, or think of Salem when
witches had no defense. the thing is
laughable enough; and the child of
ten smiles superiority at the ignor-

But the world Is not free from
falsehood yet; and one has but to
look about him with half an eye to
see absurdities more ridiculous than
the one that exploded In 1892.
Consider, this, for instance. Near

a fact too simple to debate, that, per-
sonally, no man can possibly deserve
anything for which he does not rem
