He supported Bryan in 1896 and again in 1900 and is a true democrat.—Columbia City Post.

Hon. Samuel M. Ralston in an extended interiew, lines himself up for Judge Alton B. Parker for president. and in so doing gives some mighty good reasons why the democrats should select their standard bearer with calmness and wisdom. Mr. Ralston’s interest is that

of a democrat who desires to see his party progress and who has no personal or selfish motives to gratify The election of every candidate on the city ticket, is a matter of importance to the party. Do not be caught napping on any “hot air” issue, raised for the purpose of advancing the candidacy of the opposition. For instance they say Hairy Cordua would really do his duty if the mayor would let him. The fact is the mayor has no string on him at all, and if he admits the failure of doing his duty he alone is responsible. Do not allow these things to interfere with your suppert of the ticket

Harry Cordna the marshal and candidate for re-election, is beginning his campaign by false and perhaps malicious accusations. He glibly tell the “dear people” that he would rejoice in performing his official duties were not his hands tied by orders from the mayor. This is a very poor excuse from a very poor marshal. The law specifies both the duties of a mayor and marshal. It is the duty of the marshal to preserve peace and order j and to arrest any and all violators |of the law. It is the duty of the mayor to hear the evidence and declare the innocence or guilt of the accused. The mayor has no authority to cause the arrest of any individual, not any authority—more than an individual—of stopping any violations of law. This matter is wholly in the hands of the marshal and that officer should stand up and take his medicine, instead of trying to shoulder his neglect upon some one else.

The entertainment given by No. sos French township under the management of Fred Bentz, teacher was a decided success.

The parents were especially well phased with the work of the teacher and greatly surprised at the aptness of the scholars. And on Thursday March 24th they showed their high appreciation of the winter's work by dropping in on them with well filled baskets and at 12 o'clock the teacher announced the hour for dinner and four long tables were arranged and filled with everything the good mothers and daughters knew how

to prepare and over 100 partook of the feast. The afternoon wasjspent by listening to (lie prorgam arranged for the occasion and a phonograph. One of the pleasing features was that of the teacher presenting a nice souvenir to each of his scholars and the presentation of abeautiful present to the teacher by the pupils. Also Mrs. Frank Robison offered a lovely present to the best behaved scholar sos which the school was judge and voted it to Miss Cora Klickman. On account of bad weather and sickness there was but one roll of Honor and that was presened to Miss Lavinta Beitler.

EASY WAY TO CURE CATARRH Breathe Hyomei and Kill All Catarrhal Germs. — “Money Baek if it Fails,” Say The Holthouse Drug Co. There is no dangerous stomach drugging when using Hyomei. The healing anil aromatic balsams which compose this wonderful treatment are breathed through a neat pocket inhaler that comes with every SI outfit. In this way the germ-killing and ' health-giving Hyomei penetrates to the most remote cells of the lungs. It searches out and kills disease germs in the air passages of the head, throat and nose, soothes and heals the irritated mucous membrane, and abeolutely drives catarrh from the system. Such remarkable results have followed the use of Hyomei by the best people in Decatur that the Holthouse Drug Co. have te greatest confidence in its power to cure catarrh. They believe in it so thoroughly that they will give their personal guarantee to refund the money if it does not cure, the purchaser to be sole judge. This is an unusual offer and the first time that any medicine or treatment for the cure of catarrh has been sold in this way. If it cures, the expense is trifling, while if it fails, the cost is absolutely nothing. If you are fortunate enough not to be troubled with catarrh, tell your friends of The Holthouse Drug Co.'s offer and get them to take advantage of it. For Sale—3 head Eberdeen male calves.
