THURSDAY, OCT. 25, 1900. ____———_:———____——_____; » § : '( E£]% 5 \ "\l N \ .‘ DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL TICKET. For President, WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, of Nebraska. For Vice President, - ADLAI EWING STEVENSON, of Illinois. For Electors-at-Large, A LLEN ZOLLARS, of Allen. NICHOLAS CORNET, of Ripley.

REPUBLIGAN campaign managers continue to warn'their friends against the danger of the Democrats tapping some of their ‘‘big bar’ls’ to corrupt “honest Republicans” on election day. They seem bent on creating the impression that this is the only real danger that stares the g. o. p. in the face.

ONE of the dreams of Andrew Carnegie, the great steel magnate is about to be realized. Four steamships each ecarrying 1,000 tons of steel will sail from Conneaut Harbor, 0., on Nov. 5 for Liverpool. When the new trans-Atlantic line from the Great lakes has been fully established, Mr. Carnegie will be in a position to underbid the world on steel contracts. o

GERMANY’S new €ivil code of laws would not suit the American woman a little bit. According to its provisions the husband is supreme in all social affairs; he may prescribe the hour for dinner, the manner of serving it, the number of servants and the quality of linen to be bought during the year. Imagine an American husband pre-empting these rights, and you will get a good idea of what the infernal regions would look if Dante’s seven circles became mixed.

FroMm a letter sent by Chairman Hernley of the republican state committee to county chairmen over the state it is made clear that the railroads are to be worked for the transportation of absentrepublican voters. The same thing was done in 1896. There are, of course,some absent voters who are entitled to vote, but the thing for Democrats to guard against is the danger of double voting under this convenient system of transportation. :

SENATOR FATRBANKS did not make the dignified, argumentative speech here Tuesday that he generally nm;kes. He devoted a good share of his time to ridiculing Bryan and answered but few of the democratic arguments. His defense of the trusts was the weakest part of his address, but he did as well as could be done under the circumstances. Asa corporation lawyer and railroad magnate his sympathies are wholly with the aggregations of capital and it is to be expected that his arguments would be in the direction of a defense of the trusts, but he does not do the subject justice. :

THE supporters of Mr. McKinley object to the use of the words ‘‘imperial” and “imperialism.” They say that Mr. McKinley is not an emperor and has no desire to make himself one; and that there is no such thing as ‘‘imperialism’’ in the United States. Of eourse, they are merely indulging in a childish quibble about words. We feel much more concerned about the substance of things than about names, and if our opponents prefer the term ‘‘absolutism” we have no possible objection. Mr. Harrison is speaking of the republican claim that the power of congress over the territories is ‘‘absolute,”” which he denies. The exercise of that power, the policy and the system of government thereby typified and created are necessarily ‘‘absolutism.'” At that we are content to let it pass.— Baltimore Sun. . IT 18 A somewhat significant fact that the professors of history in many of onr leading colleges and universities have declared themselves for Bryan this year. A ldarge proportion ~of these men have always been Republicans, but they believe that the party with which they. have been identified in the past is advocating dangerous doctrines, hence they deem it their duty as citizens to vote ~-with the Democrats. ' These dtstinguished scholars and educators are familiar with the history of the past and understand the causes which have led to their downfall. They believe that, if this government persists in adopting a policy of militarism, it ~ will mean the beginning of the end of our national existenee. Whether there apprehensions are well founded or not, they are at least acting ac~cording to the dictates of conscience, as every eitizen should do. = ' i ———— GERMANY'S highest court recently rendered a decision which is worthy of note and which some of the courts in this country might do well to imitate. This is a decision that refers to insurance companies and other stock companies whose shares are absolutely worthless, but which are ‘represented to be sound and to afford ~enormous profits on investments. The German court has decided that L Y s sy ARt "'fi“*?”‘sfl‘,fi% :; Ko g IR e dor the Paop fi@i@?fig@

vested because of their enticing representations. A decision similar to that in this country might have the effect of suppressing some of the fraudulent investment companies now doing business in many localities and of preventing thousands ot credulous sndividuals from being fleeced out of their savings. . ,

THE hardest hit of the campaign so far received by the Hanna crowds comes from Hastings, Nebraska. The next day after the visit of Hanna, the leading republican paper of the state, The Hastings Republican, came out for Bryan. It says;in explanation: ‘- For twelve years the Republican has been a republican newspaper. Since 1888 it has made as best it could a clean, honest, manly fight for republican politiecs and measures and has supported republican nominees for national and state offices. It is proud of its affiliation with the party of Lincoln and Sumner and Seward and Chase, of Grant and Blaine and Gatfield and Harrison. Glorying in the record these great leaders have made and in the ideas of American goverament for which they have-stood, the Republican has lent the party cheerful and loyal support. .We can accord that support no longer. From now henceforth the Republican will be found advocating the election of the man who stands for the same fundamental principles for which Abraham Linecoln lived and died—William J. Brvan of our own state of Nebraska.

Obituary. 3 Dr. George S. Woodruff was born in Huntington, Indiana, September 11, 1845. and departed his life in Ligonier, Indiana, October 17, 1900, aged 556 years. 1 month and 6 days. He was educated in the public schools of Albion, Indiana, at which place his father resided during his early life. . - At the age of 20 he began the study of medicine, attending medical lect‘ures during the term of 1866 and 1867 at Ann Arbor University, Michigan. During the summer of 1867 he began the practice of medicine with his father, but a year or so afterward went to Cincinnati, Ohio, ta continue iand complete his medical education and graduated in that city in due course, subsequently. In the spring of 1869 he removed from Albion to Ligonier, having previously married the wife who survives-him, Eleanor Smith,daugh‘ter of the late. Rev. John W. Smith of that place. He then engaged in the drug business in connection with the general practice, but finding that he could not attend to both with satisfaction or profit, he discontinued the general practice, devoting his time and attention to the store and concurrent office practice.

In the winter of 1886 he sold a half interest to his brother, Allen Woodruff and they together conducted the business until the fall of 1889 when our subject disposed of his interest in the drug line completely with a view of resuming the general practice ot medicine. To refresh and enlarge his information and to generally better equip himself for the important work before him he again went to Cincinnati in the year 1890. hearing another course of medical lectures. He then returned home, taking up the general practice, which he has followed continuously from that time until his death. His medical career has been a successful one, and had it not been for continued impaired health, would ha ve been a much more extensive one. :

In the spring of 1884 he was elected a member of the town council, also in the year 1892.; In the spring of 1893 he was elected a member of the city council and assisted in the orgl?nization of our new city government.

Three years ago he was elected health officer by the city council for the city of Ligonier, having the endorsement of the entire medical profession for the position, which denotes the appreciation and confidence in which he was held by those who knew him best.

He was convinced of the necessity of a religious life in the spring of 1877, was converted and united with the Methodist, Episcopal church, since which time he has led a consistent, devoted Christain life. He has been an official member of the church for over twenty years and the loss of his counsel in this relationship will be great. The wife of his youth, Eleanor; the two sons, Ernest and Charles and other immediate relatives and friends will sadly miss his guiding hand and genial companionship. A true husband, a kind father,a steadfast friend is gone, but the memory of his clean life, his devotion to duty and his inspiring example, will never fade while life lasts. Funeral service was conducted by Rev. E. F. Albertson from the Methodist ehurch on Friday, October 19th at 2p. m. The burial was under:the auspices of the Ligonier K. O.T. M. of which Mr. Woodruff was anactive member. The funeral was largely attended. : ¥

Jaeob M. Miller died at his home in Wolf Lake, October 12, 1900, after several months of failing health. He was born in Lycoming county, Pennsylvania, May 2, 1827, and was aged 73 years, 4 months and 13 days. ‘When about twenty years of age he went to Wisconsin, where he spent two years inthe home of his sigter, He then went to Canton, Ohio, ‘to which town his father had moved, JHere he and his father went into the boot and shoe business which trade he followed during his life. In 1848 he went to Biyan, Ohio, where he engaged in business. The following year he was married to Miss Nancy A. Patterson. To them was born six children, three boys and three girls. lln 1856, the family moved to Forest Grove, Elkhart county, Indiana, In the dark days of 1863, as the war Frogressed, he eould resist the pressng call for defenders to the nation no longer and he enlisted as a goldier, joining the Twelfth Indiana ecavalry under Colonel Anderson and served as a corporal in Company I, He did valiant service, was present in the hard-fought battle of Nasghville and other en%;a_?ements, and was honorably discharged at the close of the war. , __The family, meanwhile, resided at Ligonier, later they moved to Syra--euse, then to Millersburg, where Mr. gfller was again married to Mary J. LCloud.. Te them was born one son. BShe, being of frail health, only lived ‘about two years. He moved to Butler, where on January 25, 1872, he was | married to Miss Mary Brefl!l%@fiif;—?’x. rho survives him. The same Jeße fhay moved to Wolf Lake, where they!

Address to Independent Voters.

The undersigned citizens of the United States regard with ;f':’rofound apprehension the course of the present administration to Porto Ricé and the Philippines. Our prior acquisitions were of adjacent territory for the extension of the area of constitutional government and the creation of new states to the Union. We made their few inhabitants citizens; our people settled them; we there established the institutions of free(s)om. For the first time in our history it is now proposed that the President and Congress shall rule vast territories and millions of men outside our constitutional system. Officials sworn to support the Constitution and deriving all their powers therefrom have acquired colonies and assumed arbitrary authority to govern their inhabitants without representation. This policy offers to the people of Porto Rico and the Philippines no hope of independence, no prospect of American citizenship, no representation in the Congress which taxes them. This is the government of men by arbitrary power; this is imperialism. <« : - We believe that it is the first duty of the American people to stamp with their disapfroval doctrines so hostile to liberty and dangerous to constitutional government. If they are toremain free and their government is to continue representative, their servants must not have or exercise any but constitutional powers. Between the claim of freedom that all men are entitled to equal political rights and th(;a dogma of tyranny that makes right, there is no middle round. - : : ¢ e ‘We have not prior to this year supported the candidacy of Mr. Bryan. We do not now concur in certain of his views on minor issues. Yet his position on the’supreme issue of the present campaign is so sound, and his advocacy of it has been so able and courageous that we now favor his election as the most effective way of showing disap{)roval of Mr. McKinley'’s course.” Without claiming any special political influence, we unite, for what our example may be worth to our fellow-citizens, in this statement of proposed action in the presence of ‘“‘a greater danger than we have encountered since -the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth—the danger that we are to be transformed from a republic, founded on the Declaration of Independence, guided by the counsels of Washington, into a vulgar, commonplace empire, founded on physical force.” We invite the co-operation of all independent voters to avert this great and impending danger.

In Memoriam, HEADQUARTERS LIGONIER TeExN7, No. 11, K. O. T. M. E LIGONIER, IND., Oct. 19, 1900. WHEREAS, In the providence of God our beloved brother, Sir Knight Dr. G. S. Woodruff has ended his life, and the band of death has relieved him and taken him from our ranks here below, therefore be it RESOLVED, Thatin the death of our Sir Knight this Tent, No. 11, has lost a friend and co-worker. i

That as a friend he was always conspicuous for his unselfishness and willingness to freely help others with his large hearted charity and his boundless sympathy. That we have lost in him a wise counselor and one who was faithful and true in all the relations of life. That in our future work we shall miss him and shall ever cherish the memory of his deeds as a legacy left by him to us. - That these resolutions be spread %pon the records of Ligonier Tent, 0. 11 and a copy sent to his family with the assurance that we all tender to them our deepest sympathy in thelr bereavement, - W. @G GARDNER J. A GRAVES Com, : D. E. Scort Those Conditional Orders, The scheme of attempting to frighten employees to vote for McKinley by announcing large orders condition al on the continuance of Hannaism probably will not work this year as it did in 1896. It will be remembered that four years ago a Goshen ve-. -hicle factory announced that it had an order for 3,000 “Iobfi” but the order was not to be filled in case of Bryan’s election, McKinley was elected and the employees of that institution have been busg ever since—lopk~ ing for jobs elsewhere. There were mere than 100 employed there and the force at the present time does not exceed five persons.

Death of William Price. & Another one of our well-known citizens has joined the silent majority. He has been a familiar figure in our city for many years and has enjoyed a large cirele of friends. A bighearted friendly man, an obliging neighbor and a staunch friend, he held the esteem of all with whom he came in contact. For several years he has been in bad health and his demise has been expected for months. William Price was born in Huron county, Ohio, November 13, 1839 and died at his home in Ligonier, Oct. 21, 1 1900, aged 60 years, 11 months and 17 days. Mr. Price emigrated to Indiana with his pareuts when but 8 years old. Served as a soldier in the civil war, three years. In 1876 he was married to Miss Emma Baker and resided for many yvears on the Baker farm on the old Goshen road not far from Kimmell. He was of a very sociable nature, making many friends and retaining them to the end. He was a great sufferer the last three or four years from heart disease and other complications, but bore up under it all with admirable bravery and fortitude. . | : The funeral was held from the late residence on Wednesdav at 10:30 a. m,, conducted by Rev.

Mr. and Mrs. Van Vleet of this city were the only Ligonier passengers in the wrecked car on the Lake Shore last Monday evening at South Chicago. Mr. Van Vleet says that it was an interesting and exciting episode and that it is a wonder that more people were not hurt. . One of the best meetings of the campaign was held at City Hall last Saturday evening, the speech being delivered by Luke H. Wrigley of Albion. Mr. Wrigley presents his arguments in a dignified and forcible manner, ‘growing eloquent in his closing periods. His was the best speech of the campaign so far in Ligonier, and his friends are highly gratified over the cordial reception given him. _ The celebration of the sixieth anniversary of the Methodist church in this city occurred last Sunday. Rev. F. Browne, D. D. of Cineinnati, Ohio, preached two able and eloquent sermons. The congregations were: large and enthusiastic.

The republican managers were wroth when they had the Powers frost—the gentlemen from Boston, but when they announced Gen. Cyrus Bussey of Washington, D. C., they gave it out that he was a hummer and would make up for what Powers lacked. . Imagine their chagrin and disgust when it dawned upon their minds that the man from Boston was a Demosthenes in comparison with Bussey, who could not talk just a little bit. When he opened his address he had a. fair sized crowd, but twenty minutes later it had almost disappeared. He anly spoke about 40 minutes and closed to empty chairs.
