should get the

procession of political reform which is sweeping over the country. The failure of city government throughout the United States is attracting widespreading attention. The increase of debt and the working of graft and corruption in lnuniccipal government is truly appalling. The people, the voters, will have to effect the reform. They must see that the right kind of men are nominated and elected. If their party does not place good, honest, competent men on their ticket they will have to vote independent of party. The number of independent voters in city elections is growing rapidly. Men who claim to be good party men on national issues are insisting upon the right to vote as they please in local elections when they know tbe candidates and the duties to be performed. Many are even declaring that it is their solemn duty to vote for the man instead of party in local matters. Let Greenfield show that it is a progressive city by the political parties both declaring in fayor of honest, de cent elections without the use of corruptive money., ^Have the

Hon est clean administration means the end of graft and corruption Men who secure offices through dishonest means and methods can not be very conscientous in tbe discharge of their official duties.

real duty of the men

elected to till the city offices at the coming election will not be to try to find out who or which party is responsible for the bad financial condition of the city, but how best to remedy such conditions. It may be a good thing to create a city debt or it may become a necessity to increase the indebtedness of a city to its full limit, to provide school buildings, good streets, sewers, light and water plants, but it is shameful cowardice and neglect to allow continued increase in extravagance without any attempt to pay or make provision to pay outstanding indebtedness. The thing for public officers to do, is to perform official duties without regard to their effect upon party power. One of the greatest evils in politics is that official duty is disregarded in the interest of party influence. Such conduct is always expensive to the taxpayers. In the discharge of official duties let the men who are elected to office in the coming election know no party.

improvements,

as there is no graft, or rot: tenness connected with the securing of them, are worth to a community many times their cost. You can't fix up a town too much for its own good, the more you improve it the more people are going to want to come their and engage in business or to live." Whoever is the author of the foregoing uttered words of great wisdom words true of both public and private improvements. When you see the property owners improving and beautifying their homes, you see the same spirit carried into public itnprovemeats. And then you will hear visitors and home-seekers remark on the enterprise and attractiveness of the place, and their next step will be select it for the location of their homes and the investment of their money. Yes it pays.

WATSON MAY COME.

Fight in Prospect in Local Politics.

Although the rumor could not be verified there are good reasons for thinking that the Re-

publicans are arranging

outside men of prominence into the campaign in this city. It is also understood that the figh^ will be made on the "good government" plan, the enforcement of all laws without prejudice. The fact that Congressman Watson is to speak at cities in this district gives color the story that he may be on the committee's program in Greenfield.

The Shelbyville Liberal says Congressman James E. Watson will speak in the city hall next Monday night, Oct. 23rd. He is to speak on the popular issue of good local government, the enforcement of the law and against Sunday saloons. The address of Mr. Watson will doubtless be of much interest to Shelby ville voters at this particular time. Hanly will, it is under stood, be invited to speak on the enforcement of the liquor law in Shelbyville some time before the election. We" hope tbe Governor will accept the invitation and come to Shelyville and repeat the addres he delivered at the Methodist church at Indianapolis some four months ago."

"The Clay Baker."

Manager W. S. Gant has se. cured one of the strongest theatrical companies on the road in one of the most popular plays, "The *Clay Baker" for next Tuesday night. The company was compelled to cancel an engagement in another city on account of an epidemic of diphtheria and came to Greenfield instead. This is a fine play by a strong company and persons who want to see and hear a strictly and high classed entertainment will be delighted with it.

The Georgetown (Ohio) Daily Vindicator of Septemcer 1, 1905, contained the following relative to the play and company:

A pretty play one that appeals to the heart sympathy and touches the chord of sentiment.

This is the best description of "The Clay Baker," presented by William Mong and his company of excellent plajrers in the opening of a three nights' engagement at the Park theatre last night.

In the stellar character, but of Peter Denig, glaze maker and clay baker, Mr. Mong proved himself the actor of tbe art finesse versatile, to cause laughter or draw tears and to hold the attention of an audience to the theme of the play in a manner that is only the privi lege of the finished artist

There is about the play the atmosphere of romance that appeals to the tenderness of those who love the lover and there runs through the story a pretty web of the struggle of the lowly and the schemes of the unworthy that holds the interest from first to last,

The piece is put on with a fine mounting. The scenery is exceedingly heavy and the sets showing the kilns where Peter Denig slaves at his trade were wonderfully accurate and true to life. "The Clay Baker," is a performance worth seeing and to miss it is to have cause for re£ret

Only think, if there was never

any

thing anywhere to be seen bat grownup men and women, how we would long for the sight of a little child! Every infant comes Into the world like a delegated prophet, the harbinger and herald of goocl things, whose office is to turn the fathers' hearts to the children and to draw the disobedient to the wisdom of the just. A child softens and purifies the heart, warming it and melting it by its gentle presence it enriches the soul by new feelings and awakens within it what is favorable

love, a teacher whose les-

sons few can resist. Infants recall us from much that engenders and encourages selfishness, that freezes the affections. roughens the manners, indurates the heart. They brighten the home, deepen love, invigorate exertion, infuse courage and vivify and sustain the charities of life. It would be a terrible world, I do think, if it were not embellished by little children.— Thomas Binney.

A Full Stop.

A returned traveler who spent half of his holiday in a tour of Ireland brought back a sample of the happy-go-lucky wit of the Irish ''jarvey" or driver. In a breakneck race down a hill he suddenly realized that the spirited little Irish mare was running away. "Pull her up!" he shouted excitedly. "Hold tight, your honor," returned the jarvey easily. "Pull her up!" again commanded the traveler, making a grab for the reins. "For your life don't touch the reins," the Jarvey answered without tightening his grip. "Sure, they're as rotten as pears."

The traveler made ready to jump, but the jarvey laid a soothing hand on his shoulder. "Sit easy," he said reassuringly. "I'll turn her into the river at the bridge below here. Sure, that'll stop her."

Clouds of Drngron Files In PalRKonin. "A number of years ag:," said a California man, "I was traveling in that desolate part of South America known as Patagonia, a region I do not care to visit a second time. Among its carious phenomena I distinctly remember the clouds of dragon flies which are to be seen on the barren plains. These insects fly before the strong winds that blow from the interior and rush through the air as though in terror of the gale which they precede. Nearly all are blue, but now and then one is seen of a brilliant scarlet color. You encounter a storm of these flies without any warning of their approach, the air a few feet above the ground being darkened by them, and men and horses in their path become absolutely covered with them. They are larger somewhat than the ordinary dragon fly, being about three inches in length." —Washington Post.

The Recession of Niagara Falls. Horseshoe fall has receded more than 260 feet within the memory of living men and is now traveling toward Lake Erie at the rate of fully 500 feet a century. At present the crest of this fall, as its' name implies, has the general outline of a horseshoe, and its length is about 3,000 feet, but if the present rate of erosion continues the length of the crest may reach 8,000 feet or more within the next half millennium. Now the Canadian end of the Horseshoe fall is a few rods upstream from the spot whence Table rock has fallen intox the gorge, but the indications are that this end of the cataract will gradually retire toward the, Dufferin islands, leaving a bare cliff as the apex cuts its way upstream.—Alton D. Adams in Scientific American.

Throwing the Dart In Cork Harbor. The ancient civic ceremony known as throwing the dart is performed every third' year, and it survives only In Cork. Proceeding to the mouth of the -harbor, the lord mayor casts a silver dart into the sea and as he does so proclaims his jurisdiction as ad miral of the port over the harbor and all its inlets and creeks. The naval authorities look on with unconcern, the ceremony having long ago lost its ancient significance. Throwing the dart is now merely the occasion for a civic outing.—London Mail. .*
