expected to be adopted. There is no use denying such a condition as has obtained in Kansas for the past twenty years is vastly demoralizing. No man can openly disregard one law withont exerting a bad influence on him self and on the people about him. No officer can wink at violations of one law and insist on implicit obedience to others. No judge can treat one as binding and another as an airy persiflage. No commonwealth can afford to make its constitution a self-confessed and notorious lie.

spent in the chimney corner.” “Yes, William, they should.” “Now father, being you are old and feeble, and helpless, give me a deed to the farm, and you and mother live out your remainder of your remaining days with me and Sally.” “William,” said the old man, pushing back his sleeves, “I think I see the drift of these remarks. When I am ready to start for the poor house, I'll play fool and hand over the deed. William!” “Yes, sir.” “In order to dispel any illusion on your part that I am old, feeble and helpless, I am going to knock down half an acre of corn with your heels!” And when the conversation finally adjourned William crawled to the hay stack and cautiously whispered to himself: “And Sally was to broach the same thing to ma at the same time. I wonder if she is mortally injured or only crippled for life.”—Ex.

Something is certainly the matter with Kansas until one thing or the other is done. And the crusade of Mrs. Nation will have brought about the result which more temperate measures could not have affected.

Bess Cowan and Lester Olin are thinking very seaiously, they say, of beginning a year’s work at Valparaiso.

Veedersburg has the “gas fever,” says an exchange, and will bore a hole in the ground. It has been estimated that the hole can be secured at the nominal cost of $2,500, and subscriptions are piling up to the desired amount. Well, it is to be hoped that when Veedersburg gets the hole they will get something in it—if not gas, then something else that will have a consoling influence. Kansas City has become a great market for high-bred cattle, and especially, Herefords or White Face. Recently, the entire EarlStuart herd, known as the Shadeland herd, was sold for $35,000, to parties in that city, and now Wm. S. Van Natta, of Fowler, has just disposed of his prize winners to other parties there, at a price which is said to be above the $60,000 mark. Indiana still has the famous herd belonging to F. A Nave, of Attica.

But what is the effect of her crusade? Why, she has called the attention of the whole country to the fact that Kansas is not obeying its own laws. She has impressed that fact upon the people of Kansas as it never had been impressed before. In the end the good people of that state--for they are always in a majority will conclude that a law that can not be enforced would better be repealed. And it is certain one of two things will be done as a result of the crusade of this fanatical woman. Either the prohibition amendment and the laws under it will bo repealed, or they will be enforced. Whichever the people of the state conclude will be for all reasons best may be

Chelse Utterback, Fred Hutchison and Bert Woods attended the literary at Ball's school house last Friday night.

NEWSPAPERS AS HISTORIES.

New Richmond Lumber

THE OLD MAN WAS ON.

The Indiana school teachers, in their recent state association meeting at Indianpolis, recommended that files of the neighborhood newspapers be preserved at the school libraries. The teachers did this because it was their opinion that no better record of events which could afterwards be referred to as history could be found. It is far better to take history written at the time the events occurred than to obtain it from what some old inhabitant remembers.

The young little city of Veedersburg has been stricken with the expansion idea, along with her allotted share of prosperity upon the taking on of metropolitan airs, and as a result. is lengthening out her corporation lines. Surburban attachments are being made both on the east and south of the boundaries as heretofore, to thus include some of the factory industries previously outside the city limits.

“Father,'’ he began, after taking the old man out back of the barn, “your years are many.” “Yes, my son.” “You have toiled early and late, and by the sweat of your brow yon have amassed this big farm.” “That's so, William.” “It has pained me more than I can tell, to see you at your age, troubling yourself with the cares of life.
