of reform along lines which especially the people

Mr.. Hammond, on the other hand, won his uomna-
ton as the especially candidate of the Democratic
machine There was no state issue whatsoever involved
stand on state issues In fact all of Mr. Hammond
political life has been devoted to national affairs rather
than to state affairs.
In the coming campaign Mr. Hammond's record in
national affairs may properly become subject of
menr. His record has been good-from Democratic
standpoint For years he has stood consistently for
revision of the tariff and helped revise it in way that
bit of protection from the products of the Min
farm. This will hardly make him popular with the
Minnesota farmer-and that's probably why Mr.. Ham
ond concluded to sacrace himself for the benefit of the
Minnesota Democratic machine rather than attempt
impossible campaign for reelection to congress.
Now that's about all there to the state campaign
Next fall when political activity begins again little hap.

RELIEF ASSOCIATION
ELECTS ITS OFFICERS
Ira Wells, For Seven Years
President of WoOIan Co. Re-
lief, Reelected tuesday
Evening.

The Mishawaka Wooden Company
Mutual Relief association, comprised
of employees OF the Mishawaka Wool
en- company held its semi-annual
meeting and election of officers Tues
day evening at the plant a full
quorum OF members was present.
Reports were submitted by the presi-
dent and other officers of the asso-
citation and committeeman who were
present
The meeting opened with remarks
by Pres. Ira BOles which was followed
by a financial report from Treas. J..
Alvin Scott
The main topic discussed by the
men was the membership which has
fallen off in the past year from 1882
TO 1921, loss of 101 members since
July 1. 1913. All of the speakers
urged that a campaign for members
be started in the factory and an en-
deavor be made to increase the mem
berShtp to about 1900 or more. AS
there is employed at the concern over
$500 men and women it is thought
with little work and cooperation
among the members the membership
could easily be raised TO a larger
number.
The Mutual Relief association has
only been organized about seven years
and during this time has grown from
a small benefit association into a large
institution.
Reports OF the treasurer showed
that during the past sever years the
organization has paid out for sick and
accident benefits $22,871,55 and for
death benefits $7,45O.0O. Jan. l.,
1914, the association had q total Of
S4,512.S6 on hand.
Ira BOles, who has been president
of the organization since its organiza-
ton seven years, was again elected to
serve for the next six months. Arthur
Wolf was again reelected vice presi-
dent of the association. Neri Wells
and A. j. Snyder and William Cork
were appointed directors. Wells and
Snyder have served on the board of
directors since It's organization seven
years ago.

friendly feeling finally grew TO be
nlial In spite of the wealth he COM
manded Churchill was not entirely
satisfied Under the gruff exterior of
his hearty seaman'S nature the cap
tain felt longing which money could
not satisfy.
There was the pride of family and
name that famed this smouldering
feeling to an intensity which led him
soon to make Buck his heir. Churchill
was a bachelor. the only son OF
Charles Edgar Spencer and Mary
Louise Spencer. Back of these were
a line of ancestors distinguished in
England as people of rank anG title.
The estate of the ChurchilPs was
about to be disintegrated, the
Churchill name bid fair to die out and
be forgotten. 1t was with a view to
preventing these things that the cap
tain decided on the action which
Buck Legally Adopted.
Accordingly, the formality of legal
adoption was gone through in London,
England. June II, 1899. AT the same
time, the will, devising the entire
Churchill estate and containing the
peculiar proviso intended TO prevent
the extinction OF the house OF
Churchill, was drawn by one Hon.
Charles Russell. of London, who was
also named as executor. on June s.,
1903, shortly before his death.
Churchill added a codicil to the VIII
which made the restricting clauses
even stronger. This was witnessed by
Edward Morris, governor of New
foundland. X. e. Greenleaf, an attOr-
ney of Montreal, Canada, and George
and Frank Graham, owners OF the
ranch adjoining the Churchill place
Discussed Terms of Will.
The old man often discussed with
his foster son the terms of the WILL
dwelling on the importance of mar
riage and the perDetuation of the
Churchill line. So intent was the
captain on having his name perpetu-
ated that he provided that in case
there were no children born TO AIS
foster son from the marriage Whlch
the will imposes then the latter must
adopt two, a boy and girl whose
names shall be those Of Churchllls
narents. and who. in the event that
children are born after their adoption
received 100000 each of the estate.
Otto Buck Spencer Churchill, as the
hero of the narrative is known in the
legal papers of adoption, told his los
ter father that he could not be at
tracted nv any of the women of the
mixed races that prevail in Canada
II was for that reason that the old
man inserted the clause providing that
the wife be an American girl.
