Are you for a corn and dairy show? If you ar,. and believe it would be a good thing, say so now so we can get busy and put it over. Il sure does rain easily these days and in some parts of the county they have had more than is needed. The worst of it Is that the weather man insists we are to have more. Decatur Is going to have the biggest and best Chautauqua we ever offered, according to the hustling president of the association and when he says it he means it. Have you sent a dollar to the democratic state committee? The "dolar a democrat” plan is going over and we hope Adams county does in this as she does in all good movements, her full share. Send in your opinion about a corn and dairy exposition as proposed for here in October. It can be made g wonderful occasion for every one but it can't be done right, and that's the only way to do it, unless some interest is manifested. Help create that. The crop outlook is wonderful, in-dust-ial conditions are better than for several years, cheer up and get a hustle on you, if you want to take advantage of the conditions. The progress of a conununity depends almost entirely on the enterprise of the people which form it. To slow down at the stop streets does not comply with the law or the police order. You are supposed to stop and wait your turn in getting in. Better all do it alike and better all Fc ft as the i*w provides. That will not only avoid troubles but will also i'.i-- a ibf' busier for every one concerned, Have you cut the weeds? The rains of the past week will make them fairly leap from the ground. They tear the appearances of your street, they are injurious to health, to permit them to grow without being cut is a violation of the law, of a city ordinance and of the orders of the street commissioner and police. If you don't cut them, the city employes will and at your expense. Several well known citizens came in again and dropped their dollars in the treasury of the Benjamin Franklin Highway association and secured their membership cards. Mr. Williamson, president, is in Indianapolis today, conferring with th e state commission, maps are being secured and marking plates will soon be placed

along the route. The road la going to be one of the popular ones and you will be proud of the fact that yon were one of the pioneers. George Dale, backed by several large newspapers Is going to test the law by appealing to the supreme court of the United States to decide whether a newspaper publisher who assails a court Is Hable to punishment for contempt If he can prove his assertions. In the end he will probably learn that the courts, big and little, by and large, are jealous of their rights ami while a newspaper may say things against Individuals, they must aid in maintaining that brunch of the government which is .supposed to (leal out justice. To do etherwise would lower the dignity of courts. Its not a new question and we are somewhat surprised with our limited knowledge of the facts that so much interest is manifested. The children are out of school, their academic studies suspended for the .summer. Yet it is in these vacation months that they have their greatest opportunity to gain a liberal and lively education in the art of life itself. We are in the season of fruitflcation when the eternal metamorphosis of pollen to seed takes place, when sun and rain cause seed to sprout, plant to bloom, blossom to bear fruit and fruit to yield seed. This is the universal cycle, ever changing, never varying. The cyc.e of the growth of the earth, and the growth of mankind. In it is hidden the secret of life. In it is man's closest approach to a revelation ol the Master’s scheme.—Wabash Plain Dealer. I They do have some curious mix- j

.ups in the Chicago courts. A year, ago Russell Scott was convicted of | the murder of Joseph Maurer, a drug 1 .clerk who had been killed during the hold-up of a drug store in which he was a clerk. Scott contended that his brother Bob fired the shot but the brother had escaped. Russell was convicted, sentenced to death, found insane, reprieved and then a few —-eks ago retried for sanity, declared .sane and sentenced to death. In the meantime Bob was located in San ■Quienten prison in California, brought iback and yesterday plead guilty, admitting his crime. Now there's a job of unscrambling of justice, but after , all both the Scotts were in on the' hold up, both willing to murder and its likely that neither can honestly
