DEMOCRATIC RALLY
Hon. David F. Houston, Secretary of United States Department of Aeri- culture, to Speak This Evening.

Hon. David F. Houston. secretary of the United States department of agriculture, is to speak at a rally in this city this evening. Most of the democratic leaders in Putnam were unaware of the fact until Wednesday forenoon, when there was lively scttr- ryinga around to get out the necessary announcements, secure a hall and at tend to the other necessary details of f1ttingly opening the presidential cam paign.
 There was some complaint from leading members of the party over the fact that the management of the speakers bureau failed to give ample notice of Secretary Houston's coming to Putnam. They felt they should have been given time to properly an nounce the rally and make arrange ments to give him a welcome befitting his importance as a national charac- ter
 However, some hustliug was done and, notwithstanding the short mo- tice handicap, the party workers are doing the best they can to put a lot of pep into the opening of the city campaign.

Partition of Poland,

The 18th of September is the ami
versary of the partition Of Poland
among the three powers Of Russia,
Prussia and Austria. This, the first
dismemberment of that unhappy coun-
try, occurred in 1772 and was planned
by Frederick the Great of Prussia.
During the previous year Austria and
Prussia had been advancing troops to
the frontiers of Poland and the king
of Prussia had carried off from
Poland more than 10000 families.
These he had sent to people parts Of
his own territories. Austria had laid
hold Of the salt mines, which supplied
the chief source of revenue to the
Polish crown. Poland was too weak
to offer resistance to this trio of
crowned robbers and the treaty of
ACKNOWLEDGMENT was made at Warsaw.
OF the territory thus seized and dis
tributed, Austria received as her share
about 1900 German square miles (fif-
teen to the degree) and population
of 100000; Russia, 4,157 square miles
and a population of 13,050,000; and
Prussia, 1000 square miles and pop
ulation of 10000. By second par
tition in 1893 and third in 1895, the
remaining territories of Poland were
divided among the three powers, her
king deposed and herself obliterated
from the map of Europe.
