Something For Some People To Think About Over Sunday.

Personal liberty is a mighty fine thing it not abused. Ordering a case of beer and keeping it at home is personal liberty and under the laws of the state of Indiana no one can take the liberty away from you. Probably many would not want to do so even if they could. It would be pronounced meddling and meddlers are not popular. But beer drinking leads to intemperance. very often, at least. It is at first a case of beer Occasionally; then a case every other week; then a case each week and a trip to Cedar Lake on Sunday. All this comes in the line of personal liberty, you will say, and we will agree. There is no argument about that. But are you not injuring yourself by this personal privilege? ' —— —— The writer talked to a man a day ‘ or two ago who has a tolerable good idea about who gets beer and. how 'much they get of it. He said that there were some men- who ordered a case of beer every week and some times more than one, whose children were denied the proper clothing to make them look respectable. One family had children sadly in need of shoes and a mother who needed better clothes. And this is personal liberty? It is the father’s liberty to satisfy a depraved appetite at the expense of the pride and comfort of his family. The beer does no good, absolutely none. Not a doctor in Rensselaer would recommend it; not a real friend of any one would advise or encourage it Often the prayers qf the wife and the pleadings of the children are against it A case of beer, are told, ‘ costs something like sl.-80. The express would bring the cost to $2. One • case a week would mean SIOO or more a-year. That much in clothing wduld create a lot of real happiness in* the

But it ip a great deal better to have the class of personal liberty that will perpit a man to say: “I am. devoted to my family and what I earn goes to their support and their education and not to my own selfish pleasure.” Place personal liberty on a higher plane and think it over between now and the time when you are tempted to order another case of beer.

After a lot of skirmishing during the early after-, noon, during which’time one Williaito Jennings Bryan was the real leader Jill |he time, a resolution was passed, declaring that the convention Was opposed to the nomination of any candidate for president who is the representative of or under the control of J. Pierpont Morgan, August Belmont or Thomas F. Ryan. The resolution at first contained a clause demanding the withdrawal of Ryan and Belmont from the convention. The last-clause was withdrawn after delegates from Virginia and New York had said to let it go. The resolution was adopted by the vote of 889 to 196. * > Bryan spoke in support of the resolution, assailing Belmont and Ryan vigorously and charging them with being connected with the great money trust of the country and merciless, in their command of their slaves, the people. ' The resolution read as follows: "Resolved, That In this,crisis in our party’s career, and in- opr country’s history, this convention sends greeting to the people of the United States, and assures them that the party of Jefferson and Jackson 4s still the champion of popular government and. equality before the law.

Rynri, August Belmont, or any other member of the privelege-hunting ' and favor-seeking class.’’ Representative Flood, of Virginia, dramatically characterized the reso-’ lotion as insolent and said it came “from the only man who desired to destroy the democratic party." Farmer Governor McCorkle, of West Virginia, called the resolution foolish. I Two Indiana delegates voted against the resolution, 27 in favor of it and 1 did not vote.

BIG BUSINESS ROUTED BY BALTIMORE CROWD.

ANOTHER ADDITION TO WESTON CEMETERY.

Trustees Purchase Five and One-Half 5 Acres of Wilson Schafer; Low Ground Being Reclaimed.

A contract for the purchase of five and one-half acres of land of Wilson iSchaffer has been made by the trustees of WestcAi cemetery and the deal will be closed next spring. The land is just west of the property that the trustees recently purchased of Mrs. Beck, and has a house and other improvements on it. The consideration was $4,000. J. H. Holden, the sexton, is digging a lagoon at the west side of the cemetery, near the Maxwell ditch, which, when completed, w’ll be of considerable size. The work is all being done by hand by Mr. Holden and his helper and the dirt is being hauled away in wheelbarrows and used to fill up low sections of ground in the cemetery. The new lots thusly built will equal S6OO in value. After the lagoon is built and the new lots made the course of the driveway will be somewhat changed. It will be built along the side of the ditch, past the lagoon and will join the old driveway at the southwest end. '

Base Ball as It Was In The “Good Old Days.”

A Delphi Herald of this week contained an account of a ball game that was played at Monticello /45 years ago between the Delphians, of Delphi, and the Tippecanoes, of Monticello. The game, it seems, was “air-tight,” the Tippecanoes being defeated by the modest score of 66 to 42. During the game the Delphi team made nine home runs, while the Monticello team made only two. The article reads as follows: “The match game of base ball between the Delphians of this place and the Tippecanoes of Monticello, came off ait the latter place Thursday, and resulted in a victory for the Delphians. Both parties were in good trim and did their ‘prettiest to win.’ “Our boys wefe loud in their praise of the young ladles of Monticello, for their social qualities, and the bountiful repast prepared by their hands, for the Delphi visitors. We have always said that the city built upon the banks of the Tippecanoe, could boast Of as pretty girls as could be found anywhere—now we know Mfej “The Delphians returned home in the evening, highly elated with their trip to the city of the Tippecanoe.” The line-up of the Monticelfo team was as follows: Vinson, c; Gregory, p; Reynolds, ss; Kendall, Ist b; Sill, 3rd b; Oouger, 1. f.; McMaster, c. f„ and McConnell, r. f. 1 Ly

Manager Hume Sammons Bilched A Bunch of Barnstormers.

Hume Sammons is running the Kentland opera house and last Saturday night advertised a number of vaudeville attractions along with the picture show. The "actors” proved to be a disgusting bunch of barnstormers and when the audience signified its disapproval of the acts, Mr. Sammons opened the alley door to the stage and fired the- whole bunch of hamfatters. He then offered the people their money back but they were all so well pleased with the action of the. manager in firing the rotten show’ men that they considered they had th gers low this plan of action right along trashy actors. y 1
