New Suit Filed. Earl Adams'v?. Joseph Adams, appointment of guardian. W. H. Parkinson, attorney for the plaintiff. The Lafayette Journal heads an editorial: “The Irresponsible Jitney.” Reference is made to the automobiles that have been so active in that city ever since the Wabash river bridge was washed out some three years ago. The writer and others to whom we have talked have ridden on some of the jitney busses in Lafayette and you really get a very hazardous ride at about any time you get in a jitney. They are irresponsible, they pay nothing toward road construction or upkeep, pay little or no taxes and m exent that some one is injured by their reckless driving there is no responsible person from whom to expect reparation. An accident occurred in Lafayette Tuesday that resulted in the serious injury of two passengers ana the painful injury of a third.

Rex Clifton was down from Parr today and brought to The Republican office several very large apples which his mother, Mrs. Theo. Warne, had sent down. The largest of five apples weighed 15% ounces and each of the others weighed over 12 ounces. They are good cooking apples and when very ripe are good eating apples. It don’t take very many of them to make a bushel, while an apple dumpling from one would make two or three good meals. *ryan"ditchT There was a meeting of a number of the petitioners for the Ryan Ditch at the law office of George A. Williams in Rensselaer, last Saturday. It was the opinion of those present to fight for the RYAN DITCH to a finish. THE RYAN DITCH is not dead, as has been circulated, but will come up for hearing at the coining September term of court. All those who were or are in favor of this proceeding should stand by the same and not sign any petition which would tend to defeat or delay the same. THE RYAN DITCH can be established this fall and construction work begun by next spring if there be no serious litigation. WILLIAMS and FOLTZ, / Attorneys for Petitioners.
