Ladies, come in and see our new line of spring pomps, at Fendig’s Exclusive Shoe Store. Frank Welsh has an automobile and a telephone and in event that emergencies arising in the democratic party demand immediate attention could doubtless get into town in time to save the country. Editor Babcock says the opposition to Mr. Welsh was the fact that he lived 7 nr 8 miles from town while “many of the committeemen present thought the chairman should reside in Rensselaer.” The “many” committeemen Simmered down to three, So it is reported, when the vote was taken. Last year the democratic chairman lived at Fair Oaks, and while he was not personally satisfactory to Editor Babcock it was never understood that there was any complaint among democrats generally because he did not live in Rensselaer. Evidently the editor’s oppositron to Mr. wtficn dcceusc nc uvcu in Jordan township occurred to him after the star chamber caucus had refused to listen to his personal objections to the man from Jordan.

Buffalo Bill Declares ? > Villa’s Capture Stiff Job. > _ ‘ . Washington, March 20.—William F. Cody (Buffalo Bill), the oldest American Indian scout, said tonight the chase after Villa would be long and eventful. Villa will adopt Indian tactics, he predicted, and scatter his band to leave blind trails, as the Indians did sixty years ago when he and Kit Carson hunted them* in the mountains of the west. 8-Cent Sugar Predicted Before End of Summer. New March 20.—Sugar reached 6 3-4 cents a pound in the New York retail market today, as against 6*4 a week ago, and may, before the summer is. over, go to 8 cents, sugar men say. They assign the increase to the entry of Italy into the sugar market last week and to the summer demand rather than to the congressional action repealing the 'clause“wh!chr"was to have made sugar free May 1.

If you hadn’t read it in the paper you would harclly know that this is the third day of spring. Probably the weatherman has forgotten himself. Recently offices have been opened in Logansport and Lafayette and appeals are being made to young men to “Help Catch Villa.” Enlistments are being made for all arms of the service. Newspapers are being appealed to assist in getting young men to join the U. S; army. William Stigleman, for more than eight years station agent at Francesville, has been appointed agent at Monticello to succeed s. E. Nicoles,who died recently. Mr. Stiggleman is to take a ten days' vacation before he takes the Monticello job. The new agent for Francesville has not yet been named. The victory of the Jefferson high school basketball team was celebrated in Lafayette Tuesday, when 500 students participated in a night-shirt parade, after which they were given d? free show at the Family theatre. The members of the team occupied box seats. A banquet will be given for the team at the Fowler Hotel next Monday evening.

(Monticello is kicking on telephone rates and asking that arrangements be made to connect up the Buffalo and Monticello exchanges. Judge John F. ‘McClure, of the Public" Utilities Commission, appeared for the hearing, which was held Tuesday. T» E. lianaway, manager of the company, was represented hy Attorney E. 3. Sellers,' while George W. Kassabaum appeared for the ■ petitioners. He masked for an appraisement' of the company’s plant and the request was granted but Judge McClure said it could not be made until late in the summer. The situation in Monticello it about the same as it is here. The Monticello Journal publishes an account of the rapid retailing of a $8,909 stock of hardware at Monon Monday. Ves Taylor, so the article states, owed a Winamac bank $450 and an execution had been issued and placed in the -hands of Sheriff Williams, of White county. Last week Williams went to Monon and Taylor paid him SIOO and asked time on the balance. Monday Taylor inaugurated less than half a day sold all of the $3,000 stock except about SIOO worth. He received only 10 to 15 per cent on the dollar and in many cases tomers made their own prices. The store was filled with people and there were crowds oh the outside waiting to get in to get a chance at the bargains. Some one telephoned to Sheriff Williams and he ordered the Monon town marshal to stop the sale but by that time almost everything had been sold. It is estimated that Taylor did not realize over S3OO on the sale. He says he will pay the judgment and all other debts he owes.

Card of Thanks. We desire in this way to express our sincere thanks tp our kind neighbors and friends for their many acts during the "long sickness and death of our beloved son and brother, and Scott and family.
