St. Louisis hot in summer, but thermic conditions :this year will be roatched by the intensity of converging interests. Such a combination as a great world’s fair and a poiitical convention is° not frequently obtainable: The convention is almost eertain to be one of peculiar excitement. Thére wili be no such certainty af.bout the outcome as there was four years ago. Not only the candidate, but the branch of the party in centrol, will probably be undetermmed'befofi;e the meeting, and there is likely to be a long, hard struggle, with the chances beyond prediction in advance as between’a Bryan man, a‘Cleveland man, and a compromise. If two of the participants establish newspapers in St:. Louis in order to impress, the one his candidacy, the other his control, another diverting ingredient will be added to the caldron. 'American life seems tous peculiarly interesting at present, and St. Louis will be the focus for many of the most interesting streams ofit. Comparatively few of us can attend the convention, but every American with a vivid interest in his country will wish to attend the fair, and the convention will undoubtedly increase the success of the exposition by the concentration of attention to whiéh it will.contribute. ' Personally we look forward to next summer in St. Loxfis much as, when a boy, we looked forward to a baseball game or a pound ?f chocolate mice. It promises to be no end of fun, as well as seriously important.—Collier's Weekly. : » L L BEe aaw . As the political fmovesfi are being made 1t becomes more apparent that the republican slate is to 39_ Roosevelt and Fairbanks._ Alrea.dy' the pins are being set for the selection of the successor “to the senior senator and what promisés to be an interesting contest has been inaugurated. It is an open secret that if the Fairbanks crowd can fix things that Congressman Hemenway of the Ist District will be the man to wear the toga. ~ While upon the other hand, the ambition of Governor Durbin, ex-Congressman Henry,now the owner. gn@ editor of the Indianapolis Journal; Major Geo: W. Steele, late congressman from the Marion district; Congressman Crum‘packer of Valparaiso, and last but not least, our own Hon. Charles W. Miller, present attorney general of the state, must all be taken into account. These men want to represent the great state of Indiana in the national senate, an ambition that is most commendable. Charley Miller 18 the recognized Beveridge leader in§ the northern part of the state. He has a striking personality, a strong holdf upon the people of his district and nearby counties. Heisa good;orsiangizer and a hard worker. He is energetic and resourceful, and stranger things have happened in politics than his elevd}ion to the senatorship. Northern Indiaga has not enjoyed this honor for many years and has claims for f’ecognition. It Charley Miller and the-friends of Mr. Beveridge are able to control the legislature for the junior senator, why ot go a little further and elect another Beveridge man and who now stands ‘higher than the man from Goshen? : : ‘ . . L e R ; In 1900 and 1902, Elktfa:rt, was 80 hilariously prosperous that the township went almost unanimfbusly republican. Walter Brown was at the head of about everything and'lie talked loud and long of what the beneficial-in-fluence of republican policy was doing for the community. Everybody had money, everybody was m:hking money and everybody was depositing money in the banks. Brown will hardly be the potent factor in politics and his argument will not be quite }so effective in 1904, The echoes are still coming in, only last week the Elkhart Paper Co., who were adjudicated in involuntary bankruptecy Jan.'ls, by Judge Anderson, flled their schedule of liabilities and assets. The lia_.bZilit_ies are given as $320,378.50 and assets $146,011.05. ‘ R RRR . One of the most enthi’lsiaetic of all the champions of the free and unlimited coinage of silver was Thomas M. Patterson, now a United States senator from Colorado. One§ day last week Senator Patterson took occasion to refer to the silver issue. gHe f;ap«kly stated that even the people of Cplorado.realized that the issue of 16 to I'had been decided against them. He announced his intention not to press for a further recognition of free coinage by the democratic’ party,%saying that ‘““the party is worse than insane which continues to advocate a policy which the country has declared against.” Correct you are, Mr.. Patéerson. ' ‘ ‘ . BEe RN : The democratic edit_oérs of Indiana are nearly all against the reaffirmation of the Kansas City platform. More than 95 ‘percent hold that view. Not more than th%e fayér its reaffirmation. The editors are practically unanimous in their demand for an up to date platform. They do not want the ‘‘isms’’ in-any platform. They want a platform strong and bread enough for all‘Democr,a.ts to stanb thereon. ~ They oppose limiting the platform to that of 1876-1880-1884-1892-1896 or 1500. They want a new up to date platform—one that will satisfy the conservative business element of the country. ‘They are hopeful lh the coming. campaign. They are eager for the fray, and they want live issues. ‘They will do their part well. As a rule they are not office-seek_efs, or office-holders, but patriotic party workers. They do not want to be hahdicapped .in this campaign by any reaffirmation. ,/They made this clear at their recent meeting. They believe that the Democracy can win this campaign. In order to win, there must beno handicaps. THhe party needs unity and harmony. The democratic editors of Indiana are su’ccessfufbusin’ess men. They are producers,not destroyers, of wealth. None know better than they tbat the party must be a part and parcel of the business st‘l{ength of this coantry before it can achieve success. They have the courage tp say 80. They have the right to be heard, because they do more party work-than any other class of partisans. All the Indiana democratic editors 3ant is a live platform and a conservative candidate and the campaign in this state will be a royal battle—with splendid prospects of democratic Euccpss.——lndianapolis Sentinel. * ' : A D R R %R £ _ Hon. W. L, Peafiel_(fiof Auburn was bere last Tuesday looking over the political situation and In corsultation with some of his political friends. Judge Penfleld 1s a ca_ndida}te for the nomination for governor and is making a strenpous-effort to bolidify the vote of this district for himself. Upon the other hand, the friends of W. L. Taylor are leaving nothing undone that will tend to break the v'qt,e of this county and Lagrange county in partiéular. <lt is becoming more evident every day that Judge Penfield will be the administration candidate pefore the conyention and that he will have substantial backing from -al%;firts of the state. He will make a strong candidate, if nominated. S ; - : L . eReRRE o o o As to hauling down the flag, now, it must be admitted that it is a question to which there muy be two sides sometimes. For instance the flag has just been hauled down in Cupa and the last vestige of American occupation of the island has disappeared save in the achievements wrought there by American efiort for the benefit of the Cubans. And old glory iw all the brighter for having been hauled down in this case. It was not put up in Cuba to ‘‘stay put,” as the president would say. The taking of our flag out of Cubshwu' the highest and the final proof of our good faith.—Fort Wayne Bentinel. S { ; i = : : :

| Rey, Barr Dead. ~ Rev. Edward:Barr, well known in this city where for seyeral years he was the pastor of the Presbyterian church, died Monday last at Elkhart after a short illness. He was taken ill about two weeks ago, his trouble developing into pneumonia. He had recently celebrated his 76th birthday. Rev. Barr was born in Wooster, 0., where at the time, his father, the Rev. Thomas Barr, was pastor of the Presbyterian church, and his education was acquired in the old Marion County Seminary at Indianapolis, and at Hanover College. He was ordained by the Wooster Presbycery in 1857, coming to Bedford, this state, two years later, and confining his ministerial work to the Indiana field with the exception of one year spent in Wisconsin. 'He served as pastor at Lafayette, Frankfort, Muncie, Madison, Ligenier and Elkhart, and was twice called to Bedford, Lafayette, Frankfort and Elkhart. Seven years ago he retired from active pulpit work although he continued to preach occasionally, ang/morerecently has been supplying the revived church at Bristol. Hé married Miss Millie Webb of Wooster, 0., over half a century ago. Eight children resulted from the union, of whom seven are living. Both of their sons are ministérs and one daughter is the wife of a minister. Here are a few of the things found on our tables and sideboards every day that ;aities that support a chemist have condemed upon analysis as especially - barmful: Butter sweetened or kept sweetened by boracic ‘acid and chemically colored; jam, ijelly and preserves not even distantly acquainted with fruit, made up wholly of gelatine, glucose and chemical coloring and flavor; tea. made by mixing magnetic oxide of iron with tea dust and rolled by means of starch into pellets resembling genuine tea; chemical vinegar, catsup and table sauces containing no vegatable matter whatever; pickles made green by a preparation of coépper; wines sweetened by glucose; beers rank with salicylic acid; whis-. kies diluted with proof spirits and artificially beaded with sulphuric acid and smoothed with olive oil.

A‘ new bank building is being put up and the equipment will be modern and up to date in every particular. A full outfit of safety deposit boxes will be provided for the accommodation of the people of that vicinity. This will be an Institution of which the people of Cromwell can well feel proud. County Council in Special Session. The Noble county council met.in special session, Tuesday, February 2, with Williamm E. Piper, James M. Bause, O. F. Johnson and Harrison Lafong were present. The following appropriations were made: Reappropriated for bridges for which contracts made and uncompleted in 1903, $5,310.26; reappropriated for circuit court ditches, $1,000; for unpaid bills of 1903, $1,638.34; reappropriated for cutting hill in Green township, $147. 50; reappropriated for cutting hill in York township, $64.567; for lights $500; extra service county couneil, $6O; reappropriated $125 for cement walks: appropriated $l5O for making vault index of papers of auditor’s office for the time prior to the term of the present incumbent. - Total amount of appropriationt, $8,975.57. —Albion Democrat. : . Sol Mier Company. ~ Sol Mier Company of Ligonier and Fort Wayne will 6pen abranch office ‘here this week, with Leon Rose in charge, who becomes the resident ‘partner of the firm in the buyi@?g and selling of farms in -northern Indiana ;&nd southern Michigan. . . : ~ The Mier firm is known as one of ‘the largest handlers of farm lands in | the state of Indiana. Their large % holdings of Lagrange county farms ‘make it almost a necessity for them to be represented here and have an ‘ofii‘ce. - We gladly welcome this en‘terprising firm to our city. They ‘have done much to enhance the value of farm land in this county.” We do ‘not hesitate in saying thatall parties ‘desiring to purchase or sell their farms, should call on this firm before doing any business in that line.—Lagrange Standard. . Cannot Restore Name. | ; Deputy Divorce Prosecutor George Weavyer of Indianapolis has decided that no judge has a right to restore the maiden name of a women in granting her a divorce from her hnsband. - : L He declares it is simply a tradition which the courts have followed for a long time, but that the law does not permit a judge to allow a woman to give up the name she takes when she accepts the marriage vows. He declares that when a woman is married she gives up her maiden name for all time. Mr. Weaver is the divorce prosecutor in Judge John McMastor’s court. His declaration has caused muach comment among attorneys over the state and has given rise to a discussion on the subfeetv which he‘ has brought up. ! ‘ N

Will Invest at Elkhart. The report circulated that the Straus Brothers of Ligonier and Simon Becker of New York City, formerly of Goshen, had combined for the purpose of opening & new state bank in Elkhart in the bnilding oeccupied by the defunct Indiana National proves to have been on good foundation. Mr. Becker and the Messrs. Straus were in Elkhart looking over the situation and secured an option on the building and contents at $lB,OOO. It is understood that the Straus Brothers have placed $lOO,OOO at the disposal of Mr. Becker for the purpose of opening and conducting a large banking establishment. This sum was posted with the understanding that Mr. Becker was to invest $50,000 as & third partner,making the total capitalization of the bank $150,000 paid in, and furthermore that Mr. Becker is to be president of the bank, moving his residence to Elkhart and devoting his entire: time and attention to the business. The Messrs. Straus have the utmost confidence in Mr. Becker and their confidence is without doubt well placed.—Goshen Democrat.

All Had a Good Time. | The C. P.C.’s were entertained last Tuesday evening by Mrs. Manias Schlabach and Mrs. Dr. Stiver, at the home of the latter. It was on the order of a leap year party, the husbands of the members being invited and were present, (with the exception of a couple of old maids and grass-widows who bhave no hus bande). There were thirty-five present. The evening was spent in a social way until about 9:30 o’clock, when a two.course lunch was served, after which all joined in the several contests for valuable prizes, of which Miss Blanche Shobe won the lady’s prize, aud Manias ' Schlabach, the gentleman’s prize. The gents petitioned for full fledged membership, but all were unanimously rejected except Wright Smith, he being an anti-lodge man. . His petition will be considered in tl}e near future, as the writer understands that Wright has secretly offered. ¢6OO to be admitted. To say that all -had a large time ‘would be tame and as the big hour of the night was looming up, the club adjourned, and all went to their several homes feeling glad that they had been there. ONE WHO WAS THERE.

The report of the superintendent of the county infirmary was received and approved. | : Iu the matter of the petition for a new voting precinctin Wayne township, the same was granted and it was ordered established.—Albion Democrat.

“Approve Judge Artman’s Decision. | Albert W. Wishard, one of the closestadvisors of Senator Fairbanks, and formerly solicitor for the treasury department at Washington,in an interview upheld Judge Artman’s decision, freely admitting that the last legislature’s apportionment was manifestly unequal, unfair and unjust to the Democrats. *“I congratulate Judge Artman,” said Wishard, “on his decision.” Mr>Wishard said that it is likely that the legislature will have to be cailed in extraordinary session to'enact a new apportionment in case Judge Artman is sustained in the supreme court. . Plenty of Money.: Assuring information is this, conveyed by dispatches from Washington: ‘“The banks all over the United States aieroverflowing with money. Increase in deposits of cash must be followed by increase in loans, unless the state of busine;s is such that people can see no prot’t to be made upon borrowed money. !The call of the comptroller of the currency for & statement of the condition of national banks on January 22 found them with cash resources very near the maximum of the year.” |

What We Know Apotit Conventions. « . Kendallville will soon hold a convention, which- makes us think of some held a little earlier in this ‘county. A gentleman speaking about ‘this special one held in Albionin the ‘early fifties offers a premium for a. newspaper of that date giving the ‘whole proceedings, and we would right here- remark that newspapers ‘were scarcer in those days than conventions. We were in that convention, not as a worker—we were too young then. Fielding Prickett and Hiram S. Tousley were young lawyers, jnst winning their spurs; well do we remember it. Samuel Brenton, a lame man, was nominated for congress by the Whigs (it was before the days of the Republican party.) After the nomination was made, Thomas G. Harris, I think, a Goshenlawyer, made a speech, the last partof which 1 well -remember, when, swinging his hat around his head with all the -enthusiam of an ardent politician, he said, ‘“Mr. Brenton goes to congress; three cheers for Sam Brenton,” which were given with a'will. Mr. Brenton went to congress. | Another andlarger gathering of the | people took place at Albion a littlel later. Men came from all parts of the district. There being ‘no railroads in those days they came in pri’,s vate conveyances, and only the Vanderbilts and the Rockefellers of that time could ride in carriages, but they came, and as:there were no livery stables they stopped at the tavern, and the landlord took care of men and horses. The next day the great convention of the people came off. But what a surprise the next morning gave to those who came' up in carriages, to find their carriage tops’ and side curtains literally cut to pieces and completely ruined. : It was in'the days of Lane, in Kansas, and those carriages were hauled | into the ‘court yard and every rent looked like a Caeser and every stab like a Brutus. But how the passions of men were aroused when those carriages were placarded in large letters, “Border Ruffians,”’ and had the miscreants been found at that time we would not answer for the result. Another and probably the largest convention ever held in .the county, in which we took an active part, was held at Kendallville. about where MecCray’s factory now stands, or a little farther north.. It was a mass convention, and rightly named, for the masses came from all parts of this_congressional distriet to nominate a congressman. The contest was a spirited one between Milton B.Saylor of Huntington and A. Y. Hooper of Whitley county. Saylor won. Those were convention days when people came up to their strength, with sound bodies and lungs like a fog horn, but in these degenerate days our greatness has departed and a few delegates do quietly,iu an hour what in those days took the masses two days to accomplish. But the most of the middle aged men of those days have gone to join the majority, whilst I, almost alone of that number am sitting in a palatial mansion cocked back 1n an easy choir, telling the events of fifty years ago and more.—Dox~, in the Kendallville Sun. : B |

Death of Fannie Stone. In the death of Miss Fannie Stone, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Stone of Albion, that community suffered a deep loss and the family overwhelming sorrow. lew .young women who had grown to maturity in Noble county had a wider acquaintance, was held in higher esteem or better merited -the” respect of her neighbors, the love and esteem of her ‘friends, the confidence and affection of her family than did Fannie Stone. She was a dutious child, a girl of unimpeachable character and an admirable woman. She was one of those people whose high character, fullness of love, comprehension of duty, conception of right and wrong and knowledge of human nature made hér a pleasant companion and a‘dear friend. She was held in high esteem by all who came Jin contact withher. To the old she was courteous and respectful: to her companions tender and devoted, and to the young sympathetic and affectionate. . Her untimely death ,came as a shock to a wide cirele of friends in this/city. But‘few.of them realized ‘that she was even seriously ill until the dread news of her dissolution ‘was at hand. The sympathy of this community goes out to the bereaved 'parents and brothers all of whom are also well known here. : ; Miss Stone was born in 1879-and at the time of her death was nearly 25 years of age. She was a graduate of the Albion High school and a bright scholar. The funeral was held last Monday and notwithstanding the inclement weather the attendance was very large, quite a number of people from this city being in : attendance. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. S. L. Shirly of Lagrange. Give the Boy a Fa!.ir Chance. | g An exchange very apily says: *lf a man had a fifty dollar bull pup he would look after it very carefully and not lef it run all over town at night. But if he has a boy it is different. He is turned loose at a tender age to go to the bad, and people wonder where the great army of bums‘,‘i tramps, dead beats, loafers and gam-l ‘blers come from. They are germanated from the pure seed gathered from home, sown broad-cast on the streets and alleys. The boys ought to be given a show equal with fhat of the’bull pup. ‘ " Farm Hand Wanted. ; I desire to hire an experienced farm band for the coming season. German or Swede preferred.
