In the east court room, TUESDAY, JULY 1, IUO2. at two o'clock p. in., for the purpose of nominating a township ticket to be voted fur at the coming November election, said ticket consisting of three members of the township Advisory Board, three Justices of the Peace, three Constables, three Road Supervisors. By order of committee. Lee K. Gi.a/.kiirook, Tp. Cbm. KO!< A H I’AK KE K. Sec M undo lms occasion to celebrate the return of Xeely. Ho is the most successful thief that has ever been produced by the city. He returns scot free anti in full possession of his loot. Xeely has the symptonsof true republican greatness.— Indianapolis Sentinel.
We never remember of having seen so many nice things said' of a candidate for congress as is being said by men and newspapers of all political creeds of (.'apt. W illiam ({'uthrie, the democratic candidate for congress in this district. Eveiybody who knows him has a pleasant word to offer in his praise, and every word is deserved, too.
If there is any American citizen remaining, who is opposed to the conquest of alien peoples who can not discover the animus prompting the “freeing” of Cubn, the acquisition of Porto Kico and the Philippines, in fact all the “island" possessions, he is a tit subject for the mad house. The outrages now being exposed by the Senate Cuban Committee perpetrated by “Gen.” Leonard Wood on the .Cuban people and this must have been done with the knowledge of President Roosevelt —would certainly convince a wooden man that this "great war for humanity” was in fact a war to enable the trust thieves of this country to broaden their field of usefulness, and for no other purpose.
The inquiry into the connection of the Sugar Trust with the agitation in favor of Cuban reciprocity, which was instituted by Senator Teller’s resolution, has produced extensive and, to the republicans, alarming results. Mr. F. B. Thurber, of New York, who had several times been called before the Committee on Relations with Cuba, finally made his appearance and from him was elided the statement that Mr. Havetneyer, president of the American Sugar Refining Company, had contributed $2,500 to a fund used by Mr. Thurber “to educate American sentiment in favor of reciprocity” and that General Wood, acting for the Cuban government, had contributed to the same fund $2,880. General Wood was obliged to admit the payment, saying that he had made it in accordance with the wishes of the Secretary of War, and Mr. Havemeyer has made no denial.
The close of the county seat contest leaves this paper an opportunity to devote a little more time to the rank usurper for judicial honors. It is not the intention of the Enterprise to forget the gentle man who robbed this county of its representation in a convention, and then tries to cram a spurious nomination down their throats. The Enterprise stands for regularity, and will support every legally nominated man on the republican ticket. We want every name from top to bottom to be there by a regular convention, participated in by all the republicans of either county or district. Hanley stole his alleged nomination. There is no longer any county seat in this, the county seat is gone, and Mr. Hanley and his cohorts are out of meddling timber. The county seat question never was in the case, but Mr. Hanley tried hard and did inject it in our politics, and now that the latter is settled, it is likely that he has sowed in order to reap a whirlwind later. — Kentland Enterprise (rep).
Starke County Republican (rep): The democrats of the 10th congressional district have done a handsome thing in their nomination of Captain William Guthrie for Congress. The nominee is a large-hearted, brainy man qualified in every respect to represent the best district in the nation in Congress. He is a man of broad ideas with whom principle and not party is ever the paramount issue. Captain Gruthrie will make a clean, honest campaign against one of the brainest men in Congress, Hon. E. D. Crumpacker, and in a district where the major- | ity against him is so large as to appall all only the lion-hearted. In these days when democracy is | floundering about in a hopeless, aimless manner, it is truly pleasing to note such a happy circumstance as the nomination of Capt. Guthrie ntfords. In all human probability Capt. Guthrie will not reach the goal, but he will close the campaign and abide the results, a true gentleman in every sense of the word. Congratulations, Cnptian! You are honest, capable and worthy if you are wrong as we nro given to see it.

THE MAN BEHIND THE PICK.
There has been all sorts of stash about the man 'Who is “behind”— And the man behind the cannon has been toasted, wined and dined. There's the man behind the musket and the man behind—the feDce: And the man behind his whiskers and the man behind his rents; And the man behind the plow beam and the 1 man behind the hoe. And the man behind the ballot and the man behind the dough, And the man behind the counter and the man behind the bill, And the man behind the pestle and the man behind the pill. And the man behind the jimmy and the man behind the bars. And the Johnny who goes snooping on the stage behind the stars, And the man behind the kisser and the man behind the fist. And the girl behind the man behind the gun is on the list, And the man behind the bottle, and when they were short of men There was some small rhymster warbled off the man behind the pen; But they missed one honest fellow, and I'm raising of a kick That they don't make a mention of the man behind the pick.
Up the rugged mountain side a thousand feet he takes his way, Or as far into the darkness from the cheering light of day He is shut out from the sunlight, in the glimmer of the lamps; lie is cut off from the sweet air in the sickly fumes and damps. He must toil in cramped positions, he must take his life in hand, For he works in deadly peril that but few can understand; But he does it all in silence, and he seldom makes a kick, Which is why I sing the praises of the man beind the pick.
He unlocks the bolted portals of the mountains to the stores Hid in nature's vast exchequer in her treasure house of ores; He applies a key of dynamite and the gates are backward rolled, And the ancient rocks are riven to their secret heart of gold. Things of comfort and of beauty and of usefulness are mined By this brave and quiet worker—he’s a friend of humankind, Who, though trampled down and underpaid, toils on without a kick. So I lift my hat in honor of the man behind the pick. —Denver News.
JOHN ALLEN’S NEW STORY.
"There is on old fellow in East St. Louis named Zollenbaum who is quite a character,” says “Private” John Allen. “He saw a little service in the Union army, but regards himself as a hero. One night at a Grand Army campfire he was reciting his valorous exploits, which by much repetition had grown considerably both in number and character. He told how in one battle he had killed four rebels in hand to hand combat and in another battle had slain six. His recital, accompanied by a profuse gesture and a deep, rich German accent, elicited much enthusiastic applause. “But at the close of his remarks a modest little man in the rear of the hall, wearing a medal of honor, arose and called attention to the fact that the two battles the gentleman mentioned had occurred on the same day, 1,500 miles apart. “This blow bade fair for a moment to 6tagger the doughty Zollenbaum, hut he was equal to the occasion. “ ‘My trends/ he shouted, ‘comrades of de Grand Army, we have a tarn rebel in our midst! Rouse mit him!’ And in the confusion Zollenbaum marched proudly from the hall.”—Washington Star.
Two Curious Duels.
Two peasants quarreled at a game of cards in Budapest a few days ago, and one promptly the other. A duel was arranged, and when the combatants met on the field their eyes were bandaged, pistols were put in their hands and they were ordered to lire. As a result one was killed and the other was arrested, together with the witnesses and seconds, a proceeding which surprised them very much, as they claimed that men in society fought duels constantly and were never arrested. On the same day and near the same place two servant girls fought a duel with knives, their object being to determine which of them should become the wife of a handsome soldiyr. The duel was conducted according to orthodox rules, and it did not end until the two girls were So severely wounded that they could fight no longer.
The Malmed Machinists.
It would Appear that one of the most dangerous of peaceful occupations is the seemingly innocuous one of attendant of a joiner’s planing machine. At a hearing in a prosecution under the factory act at Halifax recently a factory inspector told the court that when he took office he made it a point to trv to discover an attendant of such a machine who had all his fingers. It was five years before he came across such a mau. All the attendants of joiners* planing machines whom he had seen in the meantime had one or more fingers missing, which they had lost in the performance of their work—and that notwithstanding the fact that the men engaged in Buch work are aware of the dunger and are careful.
