The White County Democrat has been awarded the county printing for the coming year. It is right and just that this printing be done at home, and tho county could well afford to have it done here though it cost a trifle more than at Indianapolis. Who. is looking out for the best inter l esets of the county, the county newspaper or the Indianapolis job offices? This same doctrine will apply to the people of the state and nation.—Wolcott Enterprise. During the March term of the circuit court, a case was tried, iu which Ralph W. Marshall was the plaintiff, and M. 0. Halloran was the defendant.

The latter appealed the case to the supreme court, and the same returns that the original decision be reversed.

C. C. Ross, of Chicago, left there Wednesday to come here to visit G. A. Martindale, the baker. While waiting for a train at the Polk street depot, a sneak thief stole his valise containing a check for $99.00.

Dliwnoiulx. See the tray of diamonds in Huff’s show window. They are out of sight. An attempt was mado to organize an A. P. A. lodge at Valparaiso Sunday night. The organizer was hissed at and afterwards local speakers took the stage and denounced his statements. The meeting broke up in disorder,—Lake Co. News. We have, arranged for a regular correspondent from Remington, who we think will do justice to our handsome list of subsrcibers at that place. There are several other places over the county that we would like to hear from. Last Saturday was the fiftyfourth birthday of J. H. Fishel, and his friends being aware of the fact arranged a surprise dinner in his honor. He received several nice presents smd all seemed to have a general good time.

A subscriber to this paper in a letter to the editor, kindly remarks: “I am very anxious that the Pilot should be the best paper in the county, for I think it is doing more for the farmers than all the others put together.” The sidewalks about town that had failed to receive a clearing of the snow which had accumulated upon them, were almost impassible on Thursday of/last week. A shovel is a mighty handy thing in a case like that. The Junior Endeavor Society, of the Christian church, will give a special program at the church, on Sunday afternoon, Dec, 30. They have had this in preparation for some time,- and a very interesting time is expected. In some manner several errors crept into last week’s issue of ■-he Pilot. They were not very serious ones, but enough so that we thought it proper to make amends for. We hope they may not occur again. Several correspondence articles were crowded out this week on account of local news. Ira and Warren Washburn are at home to spend the holidays.

Will C. Babcock and Miss Ava Daugherty, both well known young people in this township, were united in marriage at the home of the bride’s parents southeast of town, last Wednesday, Rev. B. F. Ferguson officiated. The Pilot opens congratulations. Chicago’s election for Mayor occurred last Tuesday. There vvei'e four tickets in the field, and the following is the vote as cast to each candidate: Hopkins, Dem., 113,059; Swift, Rep., 111,918; Britzius, Socialist, 2,066; Wakeley, Populist, 532. We wish it distinctly understood that we are not responsible for the opinions of our correspondents. The columns of this paper are open to ail, and they may discuss anything of interest, so long as they stay within the bounds of reason.

Elder J. L. Brady preached two very interesting sermons at the Christian church last Sunday, The next regular preaching occurs on Sunday Dec. 30, After that there wii be regular preaching services at that church every Sunday.
