ADVKKT1S1NO KATES made known on application. Bn-tered. at tl9 poufHce at Fl) mouth, Indiana, a second-class mail matter. . Plymouth, Ind., December 17. 1903. Russia has spent tight war ships to Korea to back up her demand that Yongampho be maintained as a closed port and threatens to march on Seoul. The Uuited States and Japan are said to have just condluded negotiations for joint action. James J. Hill savs it is Impossible for any board to establUh railroad tariffs which would be j st to all parts of the country, as is proposed by a bill just introduced in cungres.. He savs, further, tbat-rates must be advanced or weges and the price of materials reduced. Our military establishment cost a little over "0 milllous last year. It will cost close to 77 millions this year. France and Germany spend 140 million dollars a year apiece on their armies, and Russia about 165 millions. The English budget fur the current year allocs the army 170 million dollars. "Walter Wellman says President Roosevelt hiving dctled Wall street and refused to allow their dictation, the trust magnates have beep trying to start a boom fur Hanna, but tbey have failed because Senator Hanna is too shrewd to enter the field as a "Wall street candidate. "We want to aid the presidents," said Senator Gorman, in his speech on the postofflce scandal, "in turning the rascals out." Surely nobody can doubt the sincerity of the Senator from Maryland. When it comes to a question or turning out rascals a republican administration can count on Mr. Gorman to lend his aid with fidelity and enthusiasm. The Fort Wayne News suggests that General Tyner's letter to -the president, defending nimself in his old age and poverty against tne charges made by Mr. Bristow, has a clever wording, aud if "written without assistance, shows that whatever Tyner's age his mind still has its primal powers. Tne case is a pathetic one, but every official scandal has its sentimental side, disclosing the suffering of innocent tnes In the family or of chiefs made victims of younger and uncrupulous men. nere Is a pointer for young men; it is furnished by the Columbia City Post: "When a youug man gets Into trouble his past reputation helps bim out or helps him into J ail. If his reputation be good, it will help him whether he be justly or unjustly accused. If lr. is bad it will make it that much harder for bim to escape if innocent of a charge, and his punishment will be made the more severs if guilty. These things being true ft stands every young man in hand to guard well his acts and to protect his name and keep it above reproach. Judge R. S. Taylor, or Fort Wayne, has wiitlen a letter to the Fort "Wayne 2sews in which be derends President Roosevelt's theory that after having extended all reasonable forbearance toward the Colombians to "take the matter into its own hands;" that is, to go ahead and build the canal. Judge Taylor then goes on to say, "There is in the law a principle known as the right of the sovereign power in the sute to subject all property rights of the citizen to the higher right of the public. It is under this power that lands are taken for streets, railroads, public buildings, and -other public uses. It is oue of the most beneficent powers of government. Without it the railroads, on which, more than any other one thing, modern civilization rests, could not have been built."

I'he statement of the Panama canal situation in the President's message is comprehensive and convincing. He amplifies the-points made In Secretary Hay's statement immediately after the revolution in Panama showing the right and duty of the United States to protect the transit route across the isthmus and he supplements them with strong arguments of his own. There are times and crises when a paramount duty is Imposed on a go vcrnmenfto pursue a particular course in the interest of the world !s progress, and the President enors very clearly that such a duty was imposed on the United Suites In connection with the construction of tha isthmian canal. In view of this obligation to have hesitated to reco-jnizö the independence of Panama, vhicS practically insured the construction and control of ths canal by the United Statc3, vroull have been retried by tt3 ufcc!3 civilized vrorld 03 a ctu-crous blunder. ctrorjly.

The task of winning the next presidential campaign is so easj that Sen atdr Hanna is not afraid to kave'some other republican serve as chairman. '

Under cover of a treaty of peace Jcpan is strengthening her navy at every point and Russia has ordered a supply ol powder big enougn to oiow Asia off the map. And yet his name and fame will Illu mine: the pages of history long after the na.se of the richest man that ever lived shall have been forgotten. The socialist and populist candidates in Iowa next year connot go on the official v ballot except by petition. neither of the two parties having re ceived two per cent of the whole num ber of votes. Chairman James K. Jone has called the democratic national commit ee to assemble in Washington Tuesday, January 12, for the purpose of decid ing upon the time and place of hold ing the next democratic national con ventlon. In a speech before the American Chamber of Commerce at Paris, Mr. Bryan dwelt on the importance or keeping political discussions free from personalities. "And when Mr. Cleveland read this he didn't do a thing but jesslaff." Here is something to paste In your hat; "Publicity can do no barm to the honest corporation. The only corporation that has cause to dread it is the one that shrinks from the light; and about the welfare of such corporations we need not be oversensitive." Theodore Roosevelt. In a speech In the Ilouse last week DeArmond of Missouri denounced as unfair the arrangement by which House committees contain eleven republicans to six democrats. Yet De Armond is entirely satisfied with the gerrymander, in Missouri, where republicans cast 46 per cent of the total vote, yet are allowed but one congressman In sixteen. The South Bend Times, democratic, truthfully observes: Whatever taste of dull times we shall have will be directly chargeable to two distinct forces the reckless boomers led by J. Pierpont Morgan and the instigators of labor troubles and manipulators of strikes. Upon the heads of these individuals rests the full responsibility of the stagnation that has already set in aud that is liable to extend Its baneful influence and effect far beyond its present dominion. Senator Be veridge's. address at the Inauguration exercises of DePauw University was what might have oeen expected scholarly, elevating, forceful and patriotic. The senator is one of the foremost orators of the country, and as much at home In delivering a special occasion address as in making a political speech. On this occasion his audience was largely composea of educators and students and the central idea of his address that education without patriotism aud civic virtue is a failure was planted in good soil. Indianapolis Journal, Oklahoma's delegate to congress is preparing t' lead a strong fight for the admission of that territory to statehood, Independent of the claims of other territories. According to the census of 1900 her population was in round numbers 400,000 greater than that of Delaware, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Utah, Vermont or Wyoming. The rapid settlement of Oklahoma is a splendid example of the operation of the true Homestead law, where the settlers went upon the land and made their homes. The settler captured Oklhoma and the speculator and the cattle baron were left out. The New York World and the Brooklyn Eagle were among the foremost advocates of Mr. Cleveland's fourth nomination to the presidency until that gentleman, by his recent letur, formally took himself out of the race. The Eagle transferred its support to Judge Alton B. Parker, pronouncing him admirably suited for national leadership. The World, on the other .band does not so regard Judge Parker. It questions the judge's drawing qualities as a vote-getter from the independent element by reason of bis close political affiliations with David B. Hill and his support of of Bryan in 1896 and 1900. Formal charges that the famous letters signed by Philo S, Bennett and by which William J. Bryan was to have received t50,000 of Bennett's estate were manufactured by Bryan and his wife and that Bryan used "undue influence" in persuading Mr. Bennet to sign tlicm vrera made by Jlrs. Bennet in ccurt Friday. These charges are contained In a loog statement of reasons for the appeal recently taken from Probate Jcde Clcavtlacd in relation to Mr. Bennett's will.

The annual report of the librarian of congress shows that the national library now contains over a million volumes to be exact, 1,108,384 besides an Immense number of pamph

lets and manuscripts. This is a great library, though there are are at least four others that exceed it the nation al library of France, with 2,600,000 volumes, the British Museum library, with 2,000,000; the Imperial library of . Russia, with 1,330.000. and the Imperial -library of Germany, with 1,200,000. Senator Hanna has asked II. S. New, former ed'tor of tue Indianapolls Journal, and the Indiana member of the national republican committee, to take charge of the arrangements for the republican national convention. He wants Mr. New to go to Chicago about the first of the year and assume full control of the details. Mr. Heath, it is explained, will be so busy with his newspaper at Salt Lake that be can not spare the time demanded by the committee. The arrangement! it is understood, is the result of the conference between Senator Hanna and the president last week. It means, the politicians believe, that New will be made secretary next June. A Tragedy Recalled. Mrs. Benj. Garverdied Friday, Dec. 4, at her home at Bremen from pneumonia, after an illness of ten days. She leaves two children, eight and twelve years old. Mrs. Garver was the widow of a witness for tne defense in the damage suit of the estate of Dr. Bowman, late of 1 chart, against the Lake Shore, for his death In an accident that occurred 4at Mishawaka two or three years ago, when NoahjJudy of Bremen, who was driving with Dr. Bowman, was also V 'ed. The case was tried last Decei r. While Gar er was on the stand he testified differently than he bad at an examination by the Lake Shore attor neys, and they spoke to him rather sharply, ne became excited and dur ing the confusion the electric lights wentozt in some (unexplainable man ner and Judge Funk dismissed court. Garver was notified that he was wanted on the. stand the next morning, but the events of the day before had so worked on bis mind that before going to court he purchased a poisonous drug, drinking the contents in the court house corridor, ne was seen to fall over and was carried into the grand jury room and laid on a table, where he died. Wilt Hunt Mates For Girls. Vi Mrs. Julia E. Work, who maintains a large orphanage at Plymouth, where boys and girls are reared to manhood and womanhood will put in execution a novel scheme for securing husbands for girls of her training who are now becoming marriageable. Mrs. Work will seek out a western town, where sbe will make annual excursions with young women. There she will conduct a school of courtship, and, as the girls find men they want to marry, she will analyze ttao men aod find if they are worthy of the girls. ' If the men come up to her standard she will buy the license and pay the preacher. This country is in need of wives that know the difference between bis cuits and Battenberg,'' Mrs. Work declared today. "Too many of our modern young women lack the knowl edge of practical house keepiDg, and I am going to see that none of my girls marry without knowing how to do what a modern housewife should do, That is my Idea of the wifely wife. Valparaiso Messenger. Divorce Too Easy. Judge Allenof the Marion Circuit Court is said to be drawing the legal lines in an. effort to discourage di vorces. But in face of the law, the judge can do but little. Divorce is legalized. The court's sole duty is to interpret the law aud administer it in an Impartial manner. . That eleven out of sixteen divorce cases should have been decided in favor if the plaintiffs is conclusive proof that actionable causes were pre sented before the court. Men and women who have the purity of the American home at heart must deal with legislators and not the courts. Easy-going methods in every-day life lead to recklessness. If the legal pathway to divorce is made easy it is no wonder that men and wonder quickly drift apart and resort to all sorts of flimsy excuses for legal severance ji tna oonas tnat were meant to be holy. Indianapolis Star. Abrahim Lincoln Prescription. . There is a sCory, still current in Illinois, which says that an old farmer friend of President Lincoln's, who used to correspond with him complained on one occasion of his poor health. He received the following reply, which is quoted in Illinois as "Lincoln's preccription". "Do not worry. Eat three square meal3 a day. Say your prayers. Think of your wife.

The State Dairy Association. The Indiana State Dairy Association opened Its fourteenth annual session at the opera house In Plymouth at 10 o'clock on Thursday Representative dairymen from every section , of Indiana were present and there were farmers, here from every township in Marshall county. German township was more largely represented at the first session than any other township in the county. The value and use of one or the b.v products or the dairy by D, B. Johnson was very ably presented. Mr. Johnson evidently knew what he was talking r.bout and presented his subject in language that every farmer could understand. Mr. Goodrich also discussed this subject and presented some excellent thoughts. . M. J. RIppey, of Syracuse, took the place of Mrs. Charles Lamont this forenoon and gave his address on the dairy barn. Mrs. Charles Lamont, of Moores-

ville. gave a very interesting address this afternoon on building up a dairy herd. She is a woman who has built up one of the best herds in Indiana. The afternoon session was especially interesting as Mr! C. P. Gocdrieb. or Ft. Atkinson, Wis , gave the result of his creamery patrons investigation in 'Marshall county. Mr. Goodrich has spent fifty years in dairy work and is noted all over the (Jolted States as a successful dairy instructor. ''The Troubles ofa Milk-man," by I.. B. Calvin completed the arternoon work. The reports or officers showed, the association in excellent condition and it was stated that the attendance or dairymen and farmers was the largest in the history of the firs- day of a convention. The meeting of the convention Thursday evening was largely attend ed the opera bouse being crowded al most to its utmost capacity. The music was very fine; the Bremen or chestra gave some of its best selestions and it is the unanimous verdict of all who beard them that Bremen has one or the best orchestras in northern Indiana. Prof. Hann and wife, Miss Dora Fogel and Daniel Senour all of this city rendered vocal music equal to the best ever given at a convention, Professor II. II. Dean, of Ontario Agricultural college, located atGuelph, Ontario, was the principal speaker. He showed that Intelligent dairying was making the farmers of that section of Canada rich and doubting the value or their lands. His address was replete with information of value to everv one who has cows. The Illustrated lecture by Prof. Thomas, of Wabash college, showed! the little friends and foes of the, dairymen the causes of diseases and their prevention in a series of moving pictures which presented much knowledge in a way that could pot be easily ascertained otherwise. His lecture was Instructive and at the same time entertaining. The dairymen are a fine looking body of men, and all the hotels are crowded. Among the distinguished dairymen present are Profs. Dean and Thomas; Mrs. Lamont, of Mooreville; C.P.Goodrich, of Fort Atkinson, Wis.;G. W. Driskell, of Cambridge City; D. B. Johnson, of Mooresvilie; II. E. NanNorman, of Lafayette; Mr". L. B. Schenk, of Lebanon, Ind.; M. J. Rippey, Syracuse; I. B. Calvin, and others. The- meeting is one of the great events of Plymouth and Marshall county. Our citizens really had no idea of the great value and importance of such a meeting. The convention assembled at 10 o'clock Friday morning. Hand separators from the creameryman's point of view was the first subject taken up and was ably presented by W. V. Clifford or Kewanna and discussed by others. - C. F. Hosteller, of Plymouth, then told how he ripened cream.' Mr. Hostetler is an experienced dairyman and understands this subject perfectly. Commercial starters and their value was presented by H. N. Slater, cf Purdue University. Any professor of Purdue always commands attention and Prof. Slater presented some valuable thoughts for creamery-men to ponder over. Pastuerized Cream Butter was Prof . Dean's subject in afternoon, and the Canadian professor fully maintained his reputation.' ' After-his subject was discussed officers were elected, the committees reported, the prize essays on cost of producing milk, fat or butter were read, and there was a demonstration of butter scoring methods by Prof. VanNonaan and H. N, Slater, after which the convention adjourned. The banquet given 'the visiting dairymen at Hill's Cale Thursday evening was a great success., The menu was one of Mr. Hills best selections and v?as enjoyed by all. The convention xrzs a great success In every particular and the yisitlng dairymen are loud in their praise of Plymouth and Marshall county people.

Railroad Company Wins: The Fort Wayne News of Wednesday, December 9, gives a report ür a big victory won in the federal court by the Pennsylvania company. The engineer Michael Shea is well known in Plymouth and his friends always felt that he was not to blame. The News says: In giving his decision, Judge Ander son paid to Engineer Michael F. Sl.ea one of the" most glowing com pi im nts every . given to a witness rroru the bench In a court in Fort Wayne. ,Mr. Shea was engineer or the train which caught young Earl Wyncoop In In a 'cattle guard at Columbia City, ne lives on South Calhoun street, in the complaint it was alleged that he had run down the boy through negligence, "and wilfully," thereby causing the plaintiff to lose a leg. . Earl Wyncoop was a Columbia City school boy, who was on his way home from school in October, 1900, and was walking along the railroad track with several companions, when his foot became fastened In a cattle guard. Before he culd extricate himself he was struck by a passenger train and had a foot and a part or his" leg cut off. Through his father, Charles Wyncoop, he sued the Pennsylvania Railroad company for $25,000 damages. The evidence was quickly gone through with, one of the chief witnesses being John Kanalev. section foreman for the railway company at Columbia City. Over twenty witnesses testified, all of them being from Columbia City except Engineer Shea and the trainmen. The complaint charged theengoeer, Michael Shea, with wilful negligence. When the arguments began and Mr Marshall rose for the plaintiff, Judge Anderson informed bim in advance that he would listen to no plea that alleged wilful negligence on the part of the engineer. Jugde Anderson said he had seen and beard many witnesses on the stand but bad never seen or heard a witness testify 'with more directness and consciousness than Michcel Sbea. He was a man' who would give his own life to save another's, rather than by neglect or wilful cruelty cause the loss of life or Injury of a human being, From Race Track to Jail. A hundred thousand dollars missing from the First National Iiank of Paterson, N. J. Note-teller James Kane under arrest. Kane confesses. He says be lost the money in turf speculation. . ' Couldn't resist the temptation to take chances to gamble. ' . Probably used his own money at first. ' Lost, lost, lost. Then his hand went into the bank's till. It is an old story but never too old to din into the ears of the young men who believe they can beat the game. Kane's fate will be a term in prison. Others who . have engaged in "turf speculation" are already there. Congress Not Up to Date. Most people will remember that Germany held an election for members of the relehstag a few months ago. The incident will be recalled by the b!g socialist gains reported. The members-elect have just assembled. A contrast not at all In favor of our Eystem of government is in the fact that the congress which meets in regular session next week was elected 13 months ago. This is .one reature of our governmental system that needs overhauling badly. We should bring our congresses up to date. Toledo Times. t A Pocr Yiy.
