A coating of moist snow that covered the trees as well as the ground greeted all this morning.

A drizzling rain has followed and today has been about as cheerless as we have had rince early last spring.

Controversy Over Lafayette Life Insurance Co. Ends.

Lafayette Journal. The suit brought by certain policy holders against the Lafayette Life Insurance company last spring, to enjoin the company from reinsuring its business in a ne\v stock company organized for that purpose, was yesterday dismissed in the superior court of this county Where it was pending, the parties to the litigation having settled their differences. The company will continue its business as it has heretofore. There will be thre new directors placed on the board when vacansies occur, such directors to be taken from those represented by the policy holders’ committee, but they shall be acceptable to the present* board of directors of the company. The management of the company continues the same, the officers remaining the same. There has been but little difference between the policy holders’, committee and the board of directors of the company since the company abandoned its intention of reinsurance last summer, previous to the ad ; journment of the court for the summer vacation. 1

To this union eight children were born, four of them, with the mother, having preceded the father to the other world. He was again married tq, Mrs. Kate Kruger a little more than two years ago. • For more than 20 years he was the trusted foreman of the Otis ranch and was overseer of section 32/at the time of his death. So faithful was he to his trust that he was at. his post the last day of his earthly life. Mr. Baxter was a man of sterling character, respected and loved by a large circle of friends. That he was a patriot is very evident, for when the old flag was ened during the dark days of ’6l to ’65, he quickly offered his services and gave,his country valuable service. All honor to such. He leaves to mourn their loss a wife, two sons, Floyd, of Fair Oaks, and Fred, of Walkerton; three daughters, Mrs. Fred Callahan, of Monticello; Mrs. Carl Wright, of Walkerton, and Mrs. Ethel Parker, of Chicago; thirteen grandchildren and four step children, and a multitude of friends.

THIRD PARTY THIRD IN ILLINOIS ELECTION

Democrats First, Republicans Second and Progressives Third With Very Big Drop: An election held in the fifth supreme court district of Illinois Monday resulted in the election of C. C. Craig, a democrat, who received in excess of 17,000 jptes. Puterbaugh, republican, received 14,000, and Shay, progressive, received 9,000. Last fall Theodore Roosevelt received 36,000 in the same district, the loss of the progressive vote being 27,000. The result is significant, following similar reductions in the third party vote throughout the east In this election the progressives’ campaign was made on the pledge of Shay to support the constitutional amendment for woman’s suffrage Judge Puterbaugh, with commendable judicial hearing, refused to state what he would do if elected. He held the belief that a candidate for judge has no right to pledge himself to support any measure as an argument for his election. In this, we believe, he will have the respect of attorneys everywhere. The deflection from Judge Puterbaugh \vas sufficient to defeat him, hut Shay ran third by 5,000 less than Puterbaugh. The effect of this and other defeats of the progressives is having the effect of reuniting the two parties again under the republican banner. The uselessness of the fight is seen on both sides. It can clearly he seen that the issue last fall above everything else was Roosevelt and Taft. Roosevelt was a vote getter; Taft was not. The republican party has had its chastisement and, as we have remarked before, is now ready to do just as the great majority want it to do. There should he no ill feeling about this matter. A house divided against itself can not stand. Democrats have almost unanimously returned to their party and republicans have turned back in such large numbers that it has conclusively proved that as a third party the progressive movement is dead. The principles that shall prove enduring will find a welcome in the party of achievement and the sincerity of their supporters can he proven by any action that will make their enactment into law possible. The possibility lies in re turn to the republican party. Do 4 now.

RESULTS THAT REMAIN

Are Appreciated by Rensselael: People. Thousands who suffer from backache and kidney complaint have tried one remedy after another, finding only temporary benefit. This is discouraging, hut there is one kidney medecine that has earned a reputation for lasting results and there is plenty of proof of its merit right here in Rensselaer. Here is the testimony of one who used Doan’s Kidney Pills years ago, and now makes his testimony even stronger. ' \ Jacob R. Wilcox, Dayton street, Rensselaer, Ind., says: “The statement I gave for publication a few years ago in praise of Doan’s Kidney Pills still holds good. The cure -.they made has been permanent. I had pains through my loins and was in misery night and day. I always felt tired and wornout and was annoyed by a distressing kidney weakness. Nothing relieved me until I began taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. They were of such great benefit that I consider them worthy blithe highest endorsement.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
