Lowell Tribune (Rep): Although Teddy and Charlie downed the cocktails at lunch Decoration day at the home of Charlie; the cocktail wont down as to Charlie, as witness his recent defeat for some office in the Methodist church on account of this little bit of high life courtesy . Lake County Star: Neighboring Hoosier counties, south and east of Lake, are cutting down the saloon licenses by remonstrating, and some counties have them nearly wiped out, while the number of saloons in Lake county is growing fast. We have now about 600 places paying license, and numerous "blind pigs," and when Gary gets in full blast it will not be surprising if we have a thousand. West Creek and Eagle Creek townships have a majority of temperance people, but the other nine townships in Lake county will never attempt to remonstrate away the saloons, knowing that a majority of the inhabitants are of-4hat stripe. The foreigners predominate in most townships and they say booze. Mr. and Mrs. 8. B. Thornton of Washington state send The Democrat, through A. W. Bringle of Fair Oaks, a cluster of hops from the Mitchell hop and fruit ranch, some 45 miles from Mr. Thornton’s homestead and on which the latter has been employed for the past three or four months. Eighty acres of this ranch is in hops, and they are yielding more than a ton to the acre. They are also expecting to pick from 800 to 1000 boxes of apples from the apple orchard. This is in the irrigated district, and a few miles from this ranch three 4-year-old pear trees yielded $93 worth of pears this season, or s3l to the tree. The cluster of hops awakens old memories, as the Democrat man has worked many a day in the hop fields of central New York in his earlier life. Hops used to be one of the principal crops grown there in those days, but now the Pacific coast country produces them in great quantities and at much less cost, consequently not one acre is now planted in central New York where there used to be a hundred acres. Make yourself independent. See “Ad” Harlem Book Co.
