finally did so on some promises of
support in the convention. Henry W.
Shuman of Milton, who had been en-
dorsed at the Whig primary as a can
didate for the legislature, also yielded
with a published card of withdrawal,
in which he cited as cause the death
OF the Whig party. William C. JEFF

nominee, withdrew with becoming

When the day for the "Anti-Ne-

big delegation went over from Rich
mond. James w. Lynde, business
man of prominence of the city, had
early announced his name as candi-
date for county treasurer, subject to
Democratic convention Later he
changed the announcement to that as
an Independent candidate, giving as
his reason that he had broken with his
party on the slavery question.
New Paper is Short-lived.
Some months prior to this time a
paper claiming to be independent in
politics." but soon aligning itself with
the "AntiNebraska" people publicly,
and Know Nothingism on the side, had
been started in Centerville by Hosea
s. Elliott, late of Dayton, Ohio. On
the arrival of the Richmond delegation
to attend the convention they were
met with an extra of Elliott's paper

Yearns For Printers Life.
From my earliest boyhood, when l
read books or newspapers, and thus
rot the most vague idea of printing,
long before / had seen either the in
side or outside Of printery, it was
my ambition to be a printer and the
editor and publisher of newspaper.
My first introduction to the myster-
les of the business was in the office
Of the Wayne County Whig. published
by Samuel c. Meredith in Centerville,
In 1S51-52. S'. '+'i T.
Mr.. Meredith was "Forty-niner" to
California, returning home after a
year spent there In accumulating a
sufficiency to start in business. He
was the father Of Capt. William Mere
d'th who was superintendent Of print
Ing and engraving under the admin
istrations OF Harrison and Mckinley.
He was also grandfather of Mere
dith Nicholson, one of Indiana's most
noted authors.
Oliver Morton Worked There.
The Whig office was located In the
second story of the hattery of William
S. T. Morton, and it was in this hat
terry that the great war governor and
statesman Of Indiana, Oliver P. Nor
ton, worked in the latter 30s My next
inside view OF printing office was on
the 18th dav OF October, 1858, when
I entered the Palladium office as
three-year apprentice, which seemed
to be an age in the future. The loca-
tion was on East Main street. near
the northwest corner of the present
court house, the editorial and business
room being small one on the second
floor and the printing department oc-
cupying three rooms above. Such a
thing as a printery on the first floor
was not thought Of at that time, even

Catch The Fly Before She Lays.

Scientists say the time to kill flies is before
they lay eggs. George Mckinley acting on this
theory, has undertaken an early campaign on the
pest. The Missouri College Of Agriculture ex-
plains the efficiency Of this method thus:
1T is commonly supposed that the house fly
begins laying eggs as soon as she emerges from
her filthy breeding place. If this were true, a
fly swatting campaign could not accomplish the
desired results, because young larvae would be
continually feeding growing and maturing in the

TRACTORS USED In ENGLAND
American Machine Is Meeting With
Pronounced Favor and Many Brit
ish Farmers Are Investing.

Intensive cultivation is not the
only thing that American farmers
can learn from others. In England
farmers are using tractors for plow-
ing, reaping, hauling and light
power purposes on a scale that puts
in the shade the country where the
best tractors are made, observes the
New York Commercial. In some of
the Canadian provinces the local gov
ernments have assisted farmers in
buying tractors. American consuls
report that with British farmers,
usually the most conservative of
mortals, tractors are becoming very
popular because a tractor enables a
farmer to do better work with a
smaller staff and it is adaptable to
various uses for which power is re-
quired on the farm.
Several American manufacturers
of tractors are well represented in
England and their sales are growing
fast. Demonstrations Of tractors in
operation stimulate demand and
country fairs afford good opportuni-
ties for this. Recently great plow-
ing match for tractors as well as for
horse-drawn plows was held in con-
junction with the annual county fair
at Brantford, Ont, which attracted
hundreds Of farmers, and numerous
o.ders were booked for deliveries to
farmers clubs all over western On
tario.

GERMANY's COPPER SUPPLY.

Where Germany is obtaining her
present supplies Of copper is ques-
ton of considerable interest says the
Scientific American. Before the war
she obtained most Of her copper from
the United States, taking over one
third of our exports. She had a large
stock at the outbreak Of hostilities,
but this must long before now have
been depleted. Since Germany has
extended her sphere Of influence it is
probable some supplies are coming
from other countries. The Serbian
copper mines are now being inten-
sively exploited by the Germans and
Austrians, and good copper deposits
are also said to have been found in
Poland. Work has begun in lead
and copper mines in'Kielce, and in
Miedziana, Lysa Cora and Olkuss
the methodical exploitation of these
ores has recently been started.

worthy neighbor, the children a kind

will be greatly missed especially in his
own home to which he was very much
attached.
He leaves to mourn a loving and
kind wife, two sons, one step daugh-
ter, one brother, two sisters and a
host of friends. Our prayer is that
all who were attached to this brother
by the tender ties of love (for to
know him was to love him) may be
ready to meet their God when they
must give an account of their steward

Dear father we bid you adieu, -
Though sorrow our hearts do swell
And life is lonely without you -
Dear father now farewell.

Now we part, but not forever
There will be a glorious dawn
We will meet you, husband and father

SOLDIER AND SAILOR TOO

The great American public is real
izing now more than ever the fact
that our Marine Corps maintains sepa-
rate and distinct recruiting stations
from the other branches of our ma
tional defense and that although the
Marine goes to sea, he is a soldier
not a sailor-and does not serve his
country entirely on the ocean wave,
according to Major General George
Barnett, the commandant of the "Sol-
diers of the Sea-"
The present cricis is causing many
patriotic young men to investigate the
different avenues in which they may
protect the freedom which they en-
Joy, and those undecided as to wheth-
er they would "do their bit" as a sol
dier or sailor are enlisting in the
