FRIDAY, JANUARY 2-J. 1901.

DEMOCRATS will have to stand on that old free silver platform or none at all so their congressional caucus committee has decided. We know of lots of good Democrats in these parts who prefer to brouse among the bushes rather than risk their lives on such a shaky structure as that built by the Democratic convention of 1900. They are anxiously awaiting a new dispensation.

HOWARD MAXWELL, has formally announced that he is a candidate for the Republican nomination for congress in the Fifth district. He graduated from Wabash college in 1886 and has many friends here who hope that his ambition may be gratified. He made a good record in college as a writer and speaker and would, if sent to Washington reflect credit on his alma mater and the state of Indiana. His opponents are Congressman Holliday and James S. Barcus, of Terre Haute.

IN a recent article on his friend William McKinley, Senator Haona says that the former was the author of the gold standard plank in the St, Louis platform of 1890. One by one the misrepresentations of political campaigns disappear as history begins the record of men and events. All will remember that McKinley was charged with being afraid of the advanced stand taken by his party on the money question. We quote Senator Hanna's language: "The last discussion that I had with him upon the money question before he was nominated was a few days before I left for St. Louis, at my office in Cleveland. He turned to my desk, sat down and wrote in lead pencil an article which he handed me when finished, saying: 'There, Mark, are my ideas of what our platform should be on the money question." I carried the paper in my pocket to St. Louis some days before the convention, and that declaration of William McKinley contained in substance what was afterward drafted into the plank in the platform on that question."

THBRK are strong rumors from Washington that the telegraph companies will soon make an olTer to sell all their lines to the government to be operated in connection with the postollice department. The reasons advanced are that the business of these companies is dropping off on account of the increased use of leased wires by large corporations, and the greater convenience of the long distance telephone. Another thing not mentioned in the dispatches but doubtless considered by the telegraph companies is the premonition that it will be but a short time before wireless telegraphy is a commercial success and when that time does come none knows better than they that their wires and poles and business will suffer a terrible depreciation and may become entirely worthless. It is understood also that the iprlce to be asked is about five times .^the cost of reproducing the lines. So all things considered it is hardly likely that the proposition if it ever comes to light will be seriously considered.

A Busy Firm.

Whilo in Linden this week our agent, Mr. W. C. Stewart, called on Snyder & Murphy Bros., hardware merchants. This firm is one of the busiest in the county and the rush has been SJ great that it has been found necessary to add one more clerk to the force. Mr. C. A. Newkirk has.taken this position and would be pleased to have his friends call and see him.

Vaccination Order Extended.

f! Acting upon the authority given him by the county health board Secretary Barcus has extended the vaccination iorder to all county schools, including pupils, teachers and janitors. The time limit is January 27, and all pupils that have not been vaccinated by that time or shown a good scar made within the last five years will be excluded from the county schools.

Business Change at Ladoga, C. L. Goodbar, of Ladoga, has sold his one-third interest in the New York etore at Ladoga to Isom Williams, of WhlteBville.
