HOME PAPER ON M'CRAY

NEWTON COUNTY VOTERS ARE INTERESTED IN GUBERNATORIAL CONTEST. The Newton County Enterprise of Kentland, one of the cleanest newspapers published, and edited by a thoroughly conscientious gentleman, Charles M, Davis, has the following to say about his neighbor, Warren T. McCray, the Republican candidate for governor of Indiana: The approaching election holds an especial interest to the voters of Newton county by reason of the fact that one of our native sons is a candidate for the high office of Governor. They have watched the progress of the campaign made by Warren T. McCray with growing pride, and are confident of his overwhelming election on November 2nd. Mr. McCray is making a dignified canvass of the state, and is given wonderful ovations everywhere he speaks. In all his speeches he has not once stooped to utter a single unkind word against his opponent, but has met the people openly and frankly and discussed with* them how he thought the governor’soffice should be. conducted, and what he proposed to do if elected. His Sntlemanly qualities, expressions of gh ideals, and his business training has inspired a confidence that few men in the political field can claitn. Mr. McCray’s honesty of purpose has impressed men and women of all classes and is bringing to him substantial support from all

quarters. It is but natural that the voters of Newton county are showing a lively and loyal interest in his campaign, not so much perhaps because the nominee for Governor happens to be Mr. McCray, but because it is an honor to the county, and especially this the youngest and one of the smallest counties in Indiana, to be.given this recognition. While our total vote will be small as compared to some of the larger counties, the per cent can be kept high, and that is really what will best express the confidence in the integrity of our home candidate and Show to the state at large an appreciation of the honor bestowed on a citizen of Newton county. And aside frota local pride it would be pretty difficult to prove to the average citizen of this county that their candidate was not especially qualified by every measure that may be applied to fill the high office of Governor of Indiana with signal ability, and to the credit himself, his party, and his friends. His good character, his varied and extended business training, has connection with agricultura and stock raising, the faithful discharge of the duties of citizenship, his loyalty to the best interests and continued growth of the county of his birth, Iris standing in church, lodge arid social circles, adn above all Ms sterling honesty and high standing among men, commands him to the place he seeks. Whether November brings victory or defeat the voters of Newton county are awaiting election day with full cppAderice, and the purpose to .give Mr. McCray the fullest degree of loyal support. r

A TRIBUTE TO THE OLDEST MEMBER OF THE LADIES LITERARY CLUB, MRS. FRANCES HOPKING.

Death has again entered our club and taken from us our oldest member. For almost 4 quarter of a century Mm Hopkins had nringled with us and through her efforts, assisted us in carrying on our woric through all its,.joys and sorrows. She had helped to make it what it is today. Her interest in its welfare was never lagring and you could depend on her presence there. Advancing years made it necessary for her to Retire frtan aietive work, but she still kept iq touch with us and retained her membership on the associated list until the end. Mrs. .Hopkins was a woman that we love to thirik abodt for she was a womanly woman possessed with apletasing personality—a sunny disposition and a true Christian spirit which endeared her to those who knew her best. In the 84 years that had covered the space of her life, she had passed through the pioneer days of a hew country, had seen it grow front 1 wild waste of country to that a prosperous one; filled with Wrtlth and prosperity. All these experiences of a long and useful being possessed with a good mind, made her rich in thought and gave her a practical knowledge that nothing else could.

Though her bodily nature sleeps the sleeps that knows no waking—her spiritual nature lives the life that a.” msts was no lingering at the great golden gate, for her life ..was like a bright summer day. A golden dream, hallowed by the presence of । Him who has gathered her to Ms bosom when Jie said, “Well done, thou* good and faithful servant.’*; Her hands are folded in death, her feet are safe from the rough filths and she is enjoying the pleasures of ■ .life everlasting. Let us think of. her as one, who hate lived a tree, noMq life, a J devoted mother, a kind neighbor and one who at ail times trusted in the promises of a loving Savior. Passing out of the shadow into a purer light. , Stepping behind the curtain getting a cleaner sight. Passing out of the. shadow into eternal day. , - Why do we call it dying—-this sweet going away? —THE CLUB.
