Newspaper Misrepresented Longwell—Blue Misunderstood.

Prosecuting Attorney Longwell and Attorney Roy Blue, of this city, have been accused of having had a fight a week ago, when, as a matter of fact, the little misunderstanding was so trivial that it was not worthy of newspaper notice. Following the tactics of many newspapers, The Jasper County Democrat added some sensational but entirely untruthful embellishments and the article was copied in several newspapers to the discredit of the principals. I,(Mr. Longwell had prosecuted Clarence Zook for violating the game laws and Attorney Blue had defended Zick. The latter was found guilty and fined. Other cases against him in this county were __sent to the circuit court for trial and are still pending. Affidavits were filed in Newton county and a constable came here to make the arrest. The constable did not bring with him a certificate from the justice showing that he was a duly authorized officer and when this fact was sprung by Attorney Blue to prevent the taking of his prisoner to Newton county Mr. Longwell was exasperated and when Mr. Blue laughed a trifle at him, Longwell pushed him with his elbow and said that if either of Zook’s attorneys wished a physical encounter they could be accommodated. The incident was more amusing than otherwise and those who saw it say that Mr. Longwell simply lost his head and wo expect Fred has himself agreed to this fact long before this time. < _

Diarrhoea Quickly Oured. *1 was. taken with diarrhoea and Mr. Yorks, the merchant here, persuaded me to try a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. After taking one dose of it I was oured. It also cured others that I gave it to,” writee M. E. Gebhart, Oriole, Pa. That is not at all unusual. An ordinary attack of diarrhoea can almost invariably be cured by one or two doses of this remedy. For sale by A. F. Long. C Envelopes, all sizes, printed or plain, at The Republican office.

Mud and Tire Troubles Encountered in Auto Trip.

A letter’ from Isaac Wiltshire written at Herington, Kans., Sept. 24 th, recounts some difficulties encountered on the auto trip himself and wife and her brother, Sherman Knouff and mother are taking. He says: “I thought I would let you know of the joys and troubles of our auto trip. It is getting pretty tough now that we are qearing our journey’s end. We encountered lots of mud in Illinois and Missouri. The first trouble we had was a broken axle, 12 miles from Centralia and ankle deep in a mud hole at that. We finally fixed it up good enough to get into Centralia on and had repairs made there and left Sunday noon, went to Slater, where we had tire trouble, left there Monday morning and had more tire trouble, got fixed up at Cortler and went flat again at Independence right in front of the court house square. Reached Rosedale, 4 miles out from Kansas City, Monday night, and left ,Tuesday morning for Scranton and had six punctures on the way. Went thence to Herington and got caught in a driving rain and will remain here until it quits. We have been following the old Sante Fe route but we inquired the way of some parties and they'steered us the wrong way and w’e went 35 miles out of our road, but we finally got back on it again. We saw our first jack rabbits today, but I did not run any dpwn. This is the first good rain they have had here for five months and we have seen thousands of acres of corn fluff won’t make 5 bushels to the acre.”

Another Name Suggested For The Shortest Street in Town.

Strictly speaking the new street, provided for the convenience of the public at the new depot, is a “place”, which is a short street with an outlet at only one end, although its use in cities has varied to a considerable extent from that definition. But it should be called a place and not a street and The Republican wishes to suggest for a name “Beam Place,” in honor of *Agent W. H. Beam, of the Monon, who has been the agent here for twenty years and whose popularity with patrons of the road merit this recognition.

Levi Walters Cleared of Charge Made by Niece.

The ease of Clara Walters vs. Levi Walters, on a charge of paternity, was tried in Pulaski county the past week. The principals lived near Francesville and the plaintiff is a niece of the defendant. Two Rensselaer attorneys, W. H. Parkinson and J. A. Dunlap, were in the ease, Parkinson being for the defendant and Dunlap for the plaintiff. The case was tried in the Pulaski circuit court at Winamac before a jury, who returned a verdict for the defendant, who is a married man. The jury did not find a father for the plaintiff’s child, apparently going on the theory that it “just grew.”

Where The Democrat Stands With Congressman Peterson.

Brother Babcock is having a hard time to define his "bbsition in reference to Congressman Peterson. Two weeks ago when he received a telegram from Mr. Peterson saying that Chairman Littlefield had been recommended for postmaster he was sure that Peterson had promised the appointment before the election, was controlled by “Boss” Murphy and guilty of everything that was heinous and high-handed. Now he is trying to impress the readers of The Democrat that he was always a Peterson man and that the reason he did not get the office was because some democrats here claimed that he was not. There are two distinctly different viewpoints, but Brother Babcock is that sort of political acrobat and is entitled to as many guesses as he wishes in discovering the cause of his defeat for the postoffice. He is certainly proving that he is a dreadfully bad loser and we shall not be surprised to see him bolt good and strong any ticket that democrats may put out in the city, county, district or state, whiles nationally, it is not altogether certain that he has remained “regular” 4ir the past, if his criticism of Secretary Bryan is studied between the lines.

Farm Residence Near Mt Ayr Burned Early Thursday Morning.

A large farm house on the former James Haskell farm, 1 mile west and a half mile north of Mt Ayr, was destroyed by fire at about 2 o’clock Thursday morning. The origin of the fire is unknown. The farm is occupied by James Holley and belongs to his father, who lives at Morocco.
