BREWERS CONTINUE THEIR INTIMIDATION. THE LEIBER-FAIRBANKS BREWING combine, whose insolence in assuming to dictate how the business men, saloon men and people of Lake county and Indiana in general shall vote, is again poking its nose into Lake county politics. Readers of The Times will remember the story of the visit of Edward Creasy, the brewing representative, to Lake county which was printed in these columns recently. The political friends of the brewery combine denied that Creasy had visited Lake county. The Times was villified for publishing the story. An attempt, and a very futile one, was made to deceive republicans and democrats alike regarding 'Creasy's work in Lake county. Now if there be any doubts existing in the minds of the voters of Lake county and of Indiana that the Indianapolis-Terre Haute brewery trust, better known as the Lieber-Fairbanks' combine, is seeking to influence politics. The Times has a copy of a letter written to a Lake county saloonkeeper which verifies Its former story and explains itself. Albert Lieber recently said: "We have in Indiana a united democracy such as we have not had in twenty years." Albert Lieber's name Is on the letter head on which a part of the letter given below is written. It reads: "We were in hopes that you would be In a position to purchase our goods outright on a wholesale basis, but Mr. Creasy informed us that you prefered to handle the goods as an agent"We would like very much to start in at this time, but on account of the unsettled political condition of this state and the fact that remonstrances are becoming so popular at this time, we prefer to wait until the political agitation subsides. "AS YOU NO DOUBT REALIZE. IN THE EVENT WE HAVE COUNTY LOCAL OPTION, WHICH THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS NOW STANDING UPON, THERE WOULD BE NO SALOONS IN LAKE COUNTY, IN FACT THERE WOULD BE FEW COUNTIES IN THIS STATE THAT WOULD HAVE SALOONS. "After next fall if we are assured that we will have no county local option, we shall take up the matter with a view of establishing an agency in . PLEASE RETAIN THIS PART OF OUR LETTER, PERTAINING TO THE POLITICAL SITUATION, CONFIDENTIALLY."

The letter needs no comment. It to influence the voters. It ehos that

eliminated from the campaign. It shows that the brewers do not give the saloon men credit for having any brains. But they have reckoned without

their host. RANDOM THINGS AND FLINGS The Elkhart ministers refuse to ask "Billy" Sunday, to come back to that place. "Billy" took too much money away from thence the last time he wasthere. ) Th maddest girl we ever knew waa the one who ate onions because she wait sore nobody was going to call and then be came. The opening of Towle's opera house la billed for Sunday, but so far Manager Nye has not announced a dlrectoire gown. A MAN'S COLLAR MAY AVI LT AXD RUN DOWN THE HACK OF HIS NECK, BUT HE'S ALL RIGHT AS LONG AS HE CAN KEEP HIS TEMPER. How would you like to be a clerk In the new chorus girl's hotel in New York? Perhaps Councilman Lewis of East Chicago has his explanation all fixed up, but by Jox we doubt it. Yes, there is lots of fan doing things that yon don't have to do. Mr. Watterson is criticising democratic editors who do not support Bryan. Mr. Watterson should take his memory back with him a few years and remember how he jumped onto Mr. Bryan.

Cupper and wife left Saturday for the Big Valley, where Rooney expects to spend some time recuperating on his father-in-law's farm. Rooney was telling us that Mr. Ely was now 71 years old, and asked If we didn't think he was old enough to feed him for a while. We are free to admit that 71 Is a ripe age, but if he knew Rooney's appetite as well as we do, he would be old enough to quit fooling with a buzz saw.

rrr alks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, JJJ08, by Edwin AJTye. OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE. So you are twenty-one! And you stand op clear eyed to look the world In the face a man. Did you ever think, son, how much it cost to make a man of you? It cost a lot of money, but that Isn't all. You have cost father a lot of hard knocks and short dinners and gray streaks In his hair. And your mother boy, you will never know. You have cost her anxious days and nights, and wrinkles In the dear face. Sure, it has been expensive to grow you. But If you are what we think you are, you are worth all you cost us, and more. Be sure of this: Father doesn't say much but "Hello, son!" but deep down In his tough, stanch heart he thinks you are the finest ever. And the little mother simply cannot keep her love and pride for you out of her eyes. Sonny, if you were to do anything low or mean It would Just about kill your mother. You are a man now. Some time you must step in your father's 6hoes. Don't call him "old man." He doesn't like to know you call him that; but, Just the same, he is not as young as he used to be. You see, he has been working pretty hard for twenty-one years to help you up. And your mother begins already to lean on you. Doesn't that Bober you twenty-one? Your father has done fairly well in the world, but he expects you to do better. And so do you expect you will do better. He has given you a better chance than he had. You begin almost where he leaves off. AH the same, young man, if you do even as well as your sire and keep your soul clean you will have done pretty well. Don't flinch, boy. The world will try you out It will strain every fiber that is in you. But you are made of good stuff, nold to your mother's teachings and shame the devil. Once the load of life i3 fairly strapped on your young shoulders you will carry the burden and scarcely feel it if only there is a cheerful mind. All hall, YOU, on the threshold! It is high time you were beginning to pay the freight. And there are your back debts to father and mother. You will pay them, won't you, boy? Not In money. No. You can't pay those debts in money. How shall you pay those sacred debts? There is Just one way by being always and everywhere a man!
