Resolutions On Death of Judson H. Perkins. At a meeting of the Jasper County Bar Association in the court house in Jasper county, Indiana, the death of our late county clerk, Judson H. Perkins, was the subject of discussion and it was there resolved that a faithful and beautiful life had passed from our midst, and that our Bar is saddened by his transition from earth to Heaven, yet there is a sweet undertone of joy in the assurance tliat his sun has only gone down to rise upon a fairer shore. That he was a man of sterling character, sincere, honest and always riady to serve the lawyers of the Jasper County Bar as well as foreign lawyers, and the genera! public. He was never too busy to assist any one needing help, and he gave his services courteously and cheerfully. A shadow has fallen on our hearts; a hand whose warm grasp we have felt is taken away; a voice to which we have listened is hushed, and his pleasant smile is gone. Therefore, as an earnest expression of the esteem in which the departed one was held by us and our sincere sympathy in this bereavement, we send his family a copy of these, our expressions and place them upon our minutes and request that they be spread of record in the Order Books of the Jasper Circuit Court. E. P. HONAN, Chairman. MOSES LEOPOLD* Scc’y.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

Some Telling Points From Hughes’s Acceptance Speech

Foreign Relations. If we would have the esteem of foreign nations we mus(t deserve it. I propose that we shall make , the agencies of our diplomatic intercourse, in every nation, worthy of the American name. Mexican Problem. The dealings of the administration with Mexico constitute a confused chapter of blunders. We have not even kept out of actual conflict and the soil of Mexico is stained with the blood of our soldiers. It is a record which can not be examined without a profound sense of humiliation. Hyphenated Americans. We countenance no covert policies, no intrigues, no secret schemes. We are unreservedly, devotedly, wholeheartedly, for the United States. That is the rallying point for all Americans. That is my position. I stand for the unflinching maintenance of all American rights on land and sea. Had this government left no douat that when wc said “strict accountability” we meant precisely what we said, and that we would unhesitatingly vindicate that position, I am oonfident that there -would have been no destruction of American lives by the sinking of the Lusitania. In our proposals there is, I repeat, no militarism. There is simple insistence on common sense in providing reasonable measures of security and avoiding the perils of neglect. We must have the strength of self-re-spect; a strength which contains no threat, but assures our defense, safeguards our rights and conserves our peace.

\yeakness. • ■ —r —i —• — We shall never promote peace by being stronger in words than in deeds. During this critical period, the only danger of war has lain •in the weak course of the administration. Weakness and indecision in the maintenance of known rights are always sources of grave danger; they forfeit respect and invite - serious wrong®, which in turn create an uncontrolable popular resentment. Guardsmen. It is apparent that we are shockingly unprepared. In view of the warnings of the past three years it is inexcusable that we should find ourselves in this plight. For our faithful guardsmen who with a fine patriotism responded to the call and are bearing the burden, I have nothing but praise. But I think it little short of absurd that we should be compelled to call men froim their shops, their factories, their offices and their professions for such a purpose. Labor. Our opponents promised to reduce the cost of living. This they have failed to do; but they did reduce the opportunity of making a living. We propose that in the competitive Struggle that is about to come the American workingman shall not suffer. Incompetency. _ Confronting every effort to improve conditions, is the menace of incompetent administration. Our opponents ■promised economy, but they have shown a reckless extravagance. They have been wasbful and profligate.

The yield is not as good as was expected earlier, the heat being responsible to a large extent, the weather being excessively hot at a time when cool weather was needed j for the heading grain. The oats are lof good color but lack weight. They j run from twenty-five to twenty-eeyen pounds to the bushel and from reports i will make from 25 to 40 bushels to the acre. The local elevators are paying 36 cents per bushel today. Last year the price was around 30 cents at this time. The extra price this year will help to make up some for the smaller yield. All accounts are payable at my office to Miss Morgan.—Dr. C. E. John- j son.
