A SOURCE OF PRIDE.

The splendid work Of the demo-
cratic congress and President Wilson
must be a source of pride TO every
democrat For years democracy has
fought for a reduction Of tariff rates.
During at least two republican ad
ministrations a large number OF re-
publicans joined IN this demand. But
the protected interests were so
strongly intrenched that the wishes OF
the great consuming public went for
naught. In the face OF a popular
protest the Taft administration sad
died the infamous Paine-Aldrich tar
in upon the country. And now, at it's
first opportunity democracy has full
filled its promise 10 the people and
has given a tariff law approaching the
popular desire.
And how was this splendid result
accomplished? How were the peO-
pie able to dislodge the interests from
the seat Of power? BY the long la
borious work Of democrats in every
town and countryside for many years.
We have a political form Of govern
ment Great ends can only be at
tanned by strong party organizations.
The national party consists only Of
the members living in the various
communities Everything which
makes for strength and prestige in the
party tends toward the strength and
prestige Of the national party. The
converse is equally true.
II is the knowledge Of this fact that
has prompted an onslaught on the
democratic party in many cities Of
the state under the guise OF citizens
movements" The interests" know
that If given time democracy will de-
stroy the system of government sup
port which has fed the few at the ex-
pense OF the many To destroy the
party in its local working forces, cit
liens" movements have been started in
the hope OF leading democrats away
from the party. You can see the
system at work in South Bend. 1t is
a significant fact that the highest To-
pany is devoting practically all his
time in an attempt to wreck the local
organization. few weeks ago the
South Bend Tribune. an anti-demo-
cratic organ. gave the alarm that sue
cess by the democracy in the city
election means greater strength and
prestige in the county and congress
sional elections Of next year. OF
course il does. That Is why hundreds
of democrats are active in this cam
paign.
The democratic party is one Of
principles. it is not mere coterie Of
political freebooters looking for the
salary and glory OF place. The best
assistance TO democracy is local sue
cess; the best expression Of approval
of and confidence in the Wilson ad-
ministration is local success. This is
why the anti-democratic organ and
certain subsidized employees OF special
interests are endeavoring 10 stop the
successful progress Of the party. The
reason for their activities are so self
evident that no democrat who be
lieves in the principles OF his party
should be deceived oy their shallow
pretences.

HUSBAND WHO SNAPPED
WIFE SAYS SHE'S CRAZY
Sayville, N. Y, Jan. 13.-Gard-
ner Murdoch, the Long Island liv-
eryman, created a sensation in his
suit for 100000 for SANDER and
alienation of his wife's affections
against the estate of Henry c.
Edey, broker, when he declared
his wife was crazy.
Since the suit was filed Edey
killed his wife and then COM
mitted suicide. At the coroner's
inquest Saturday Mrs. Murdoch
declared she had gone away with
Edey, but was now reconciled to
her husband and was to receive a
third of any money he might Sc
cure in his suit.
Edey and his wife and Murdoch
and Mrs. Murdoch were parties to
the alleged wife swapping
agreement between the two men
and two women.
Murdoch denied the intimation
of the district attorney that the
suit was filed because Edey failed
to live up to his part of the agree
ment to trade wives. The livery.
man said no such compact was
ever entered into.
He says he became acquainted
with Edey seven years ago and
met Mrs, Edey two years later.
The families were friendly and
visited each others homes. He
became suspicious of his wife and

A Trip to My Friends.

AS my father and brother have taken a saving job friends Sally and Caro- line called me up on the telephone and asked if my sister Ruth and could come over with them. So Ruth and I got up at o'clock in the moaning and did all our work. When father was ready to go we went. On rie3way there was piece of ice which had foated over the road and our horse did not like the looks of it. so he began to back.
 Pa told him to get up and he fin ally went on. l was afraid the horse was going to run, but he did not.
 We went on and soon arrived at Sally's house.
 As we got there the sun had just come up. When they got their work done we played the rest of the day.
 In the afternoon we played house. I was the fellow and Sally was my girl. I dressed up in their fathers clothes and Sally dressed with a veil over her head. I went and called on her, and Caroline got me sled and I took it to take Sally to ride.
 We had great time Then 1t came time for us to come home. We got home safe, ate supper and went to bed.

SUNNY DAYS IN INSECTVILLE
The Two Festive Months
ICoDyHghted

It may never have occurred to your mind that they have festivals among the little people in the grass and woods. June is a month of great H. luminaEon, and August is the month of music by the full insect band and cho4x.
 Right between you and the Sc4eI1- tists say these little creatures are not much more than conscious automo- tons. since they consider them wholly without brains; but microscopists who have studied them say that ants and bees and wasps and feas and crickets (the blow -gosgers) and reaches de have brains, and furnish the reading world drawings of them. So you sec great men differ widely in their opin- ions of them.
 June Is a brilliant month in Insect viIle for it Is the month of the glow worm, or fre-fies, and it's nights arc f1re-f1ies in the air flashing their sig nals to the giow-worms in the grass. If you have ever seen a. piece Of meadow or pasture land in the coun- try alive with them at night you have witnessed sight which used to pug zle the people of old. who for many ages thought these little luminous CT eatures represented the souls of the dead

A Brave Boy.

Dear Uncle Jed: thought I would write and tell you about a brave boy.''
 Once upon a time there was a boy whose name was Walter Smith. He lived among the hills, where a rail- road called the Northern Pacific weIx& The house in which he lived w@ made of mud and logs.
 Walter never wished to ride in the cars. but would sometimes lie on the sandbank and watch the big engine as it went by.
 One day as Walter happened to be crossing the track he saw something wrong with it, One of the rails seem ed to be out of place. He had heard of people being killed by ! uch things.
 Just then he heard a noise. IttaEas tIle cars! What should he do?
 He thought of a plan; his handker- thief was red and he knew red meant danger, so out came his handkerchief. The train was in sight and he waved the handkerchief. When the engineer saw him waving his handkerchief he stopped the train. All the people got off and came to the boy and kissed and blessed him because he had saved their lives.
 Men said, God bless the brave boy.''3 They also took out their purses and gave him money.
 He was sent to school and after wards to college.

The musical festival in Insectyil!e l comes off in August. when the f1ddlera and drummers and ibuzzers and chirp- CTS make the woods ring by day and by night. The orickets and locusts and cicadaes, called double drumm ers make the groves resound with the.r say that they serenade the moon. In describing such a performance a poet writes:
 In all that moonlight serenade: For three notes on a single string Makes fddling quite a, pleasant thing; And jolly hddIRrs never tire Who play for love and not for hire, Up in ieafy maple hid
 The good old tune of Katydid!"
 And the criekets and the Katydids Keep up the music until Jack Frost comes and waves his chilling wand and makes an end of the verdure and Insectville's jubilant sounds. In InsectWIlle some of the plants are luminous, too, and the pond-Weed is said to light it's candles at night that the moths may find it as it drifts be- fore the wind upon the water, and the primrose and the poppy and the fire weed and many other plants have a phosphore"scent gleam which fright ened the tirnid and worried the su- perSt1t1OuS in years gone by.

To Make a Pretty Doll Cradle.

, Dear Uncle Jed: I thought I would write and tell the girls how to make a doll cradle from grape baskets. Take two grape baskets, one with wooden handle and the other with wire handle, and carefully remove the wood en handle, taking care to save the lit tie beads, and be careful not to split the rim of the basket; cut the wooden handle across the middle and put the two pieces into a dish of water to soak. When they become soft, so you can bend them into bows, fasten across the bottom of the basket an inch from either end, for rockers. Take the wire handle from the second basket, leaving the hook, and fasten 1t to the back of the cradle. Make the trimmings of bright coIored cheese cloth; pad the basket with cotton batting and cover with lining. drawn smooth. Make a little mattress and a pillow. Make a friu ruff1e of cheesecloth just deep enough to touch the floor, and sew around the top of the basket, then fold a piece of cheesecloth over the wire for a. canopy, and place a bow of pretty ribbon on the top where the hook is, and you will have a pretty little cradle.

First Ride in an Auto.

Dear Uncle Jed: Once upon 8 time a little girl was coming home from school, when a little boy ran across the street and before he reached the other side a horse and team ran over him, and the little girl picked him up and carried him to her mother. who was very poor. So the little girl went and told his father about it.
 He was rich and owned a big mill, and when he heard this he took the little girl home in his automobile, and she told her mother about it; and she said it was the first automobile ride she ever had. And she was rewarded with one hundred dollars in gold, and her mother was happy eyer after.
