finally bring success. We hope so!
The Election In Wilmington
At the recent election held in Will
mington the Republicans made, as
usual, almost a clean sweep. Per
haps the Democrats gained one
councilman.
The people of Wilmington have
been saying for sometime that the
affairs of the city were mismanaged
and that all the officers of the city
were under one mans control.
If they were sincere in making
these assertions how easy it would
have been in the last election to
turn the affairs of the city over to
more competent hands.
The Democrats placed before the
voters of Wilmington set of men
competent in every way to manage
the affairs of our largest city and if
they had been elected would have
given the people of Wilmington for
the time being at least a clean ad-
ministration.
We must consider from the vote
cast that the people of Wilmington
were not sincere in desiring
change, but are satisfied with their
lot.
The Independent vote and stay at
homes and not voting could easily
have turned a defeat into q glorious
victory
Bean Piler
Davis C. Draper, one of our pro-
gressive farmers, has invented a
bean piler which is doing wonderful
work. 1t is attached to the bean pull
Ter and piles the beans as fast as
pulled. This saves the labor of sew
eral men, and does its work in
more satisfactory manner.
John B. Ennis is manufacturing
the pliers at his machine shop in Ell
lendale, and says the orders are
coming thick and fast and will have
to hire help to get the pliers out, as
the demand for them is increasing
daily.
1t seems that labor saving ma
chimes is the only way farmers can
make any money, and with them,
they will not grow rich very fast.
If the present depression cOntin- |
ues to exist, many of the unemploy-
ed of the cities will have to return |
to the farms.
A man, if he will work, can make |
a living for his family and himself |
on the farm.
People have been living too high
and it will be hard for some who
have been enjoying the good things
Of life to come down to the lower
level.

The Wedding Bells
The people of Glendale seem to
nave the marrying fever. If things
