Plymouth. Ind. September, 23, 05. Col. I.-N. Walker, who died at Indianapolis Thursday morning, served as Commandr-in-chief of the G. A. R. and held many positions of trust and importance. It is said that his last illness could be traced back to
the hardships be endured in Libby '
prison. He was 66 years old.
Wu Ting Fang, former Chinese minister to the United States., was injured, four minor officials were killed and twenty other persons hurt by the explosion of a bomb m a private car m Peking just as the educational minion was starting for America.
In his address an the observance of law, delivered at Lima, Ind., Governor Hanly denied -vrith emphasis that a "wide open" policy z conducive to the growth of communities, and said that even if the point were admitted, citizenship should be judged by quality rather than quantity.
Nearly 150,000 baskets of peaches were shipped from South Haven, Mich., last Tuesday. Fruit growers got small returns for several days for peaches shipped to Chicago, the market being glutted. Hundreds of bushels of good peaches were allowed to rot on the trees, but the peach season is now almost ovr and peaches that ripen after this will bring a fair price.
George W. Protsman, who attended the reunion of Wilder's brigade at Chattanooga and Chicamauga, fays that country outside of Chatanooga has made but little improvement in the past forty years, but the hills seemed a great deal harder to climb than when he was there forty-two years ago. Members ct the brigade were present from many states and they had a good time, tout it was apparent to all that the boys of the civil war are growing old.
Secretary Hurty, of the state board of health, has completed his bulletin of statistics for August, showing that there was a very material increase in the number of typhoid fever cases over the corresponding period last year. He also has a forecast showing the disease is even more prevalent this month than last. Charles Howard, the invalid son of Judge Timothy . Howard of South Bend, disappeared over a week ago and no trace of him could be found until Sunday when his body was found in St. Mary's lake. It is supposed that he fell down the steep bank into the lake while walking near where the body was found.
Money collected by a county or State officer is public money the people's money. The public officer is a trustee; he is paid by the people an ample salary for performing the duties of his trust. He has no more moral right to use the public money for his own benefit than has the bank employe to take a bank's money for that purpose, or than has a trustee or guardian or administrator of an estate to use the trust funds in his hands for his personal advantage.
David E. Sherrick, the deposed defaulting state auditor, can charge his crowning misfortune to whisky. Poor Dave was a "good fellow" but he was really lacking in honesty and that firmness of character necessary to a man in the position he was chosen to fill. The free and easy sort of man usually goes astray and Dave Sherrictc was that sort of man. Such men should never be chosen to fill responsible positions, and we hope both leading political parties in Indiana have learned a lisson that will do them good.
Mrs. A. J. Rupel went to Burr Oak to visit over Sunday.
A Bishop's Tribute to Chicago. Bishop Charles P. Anderson is of the opinion that Chicago "is far better than painted even by its best friends.' It is a city where great eih ical battles aer being fought and won Within the knowledge of the bishop there is no other city which contains so many men and women of real personal religion, heroism and self-sacrifice. There is, he says, no other city in which he would prefer to live and work. Predicts Big Fires. Prof. Gustave Meyer of Hoboken, N. J., who says he is an astrologer, has sent word to Chief Campion of the fire department that he (Meyer) has received warnings from the heavens that Washington, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and the city of Chicago are to be visited by large fires, either in October or November.
Is Honor Waning? The insurance company revelations in New York during the past week "have been '-such as to make pertinent the inquiry whether the financial centers of the country have becoire a great net-work of unscrupul ) 'sness and venality? Or do these revelations suggest the query propounded by Henry Watterson: Are the educated classes in the United States, orertrained by the schools in everything except a high standard of personal honor, gradually drifting into Icose notkm .about right and wrong with respect to the disposition, the gaining and the losing of money? Many Imsiness developments and disclosure tfhe country round would lead one to think so, but the light thrown upon the subject by the removal of only a part of the lid concerning the operations of tie insurance compuanie is positively dazing. The sangfroid with which transactions little short of infamous are admitted and related, and sometimes justified, bears witness to the lowest order of integrity, whilst the matter-of-fact way the public takes it, is proof of an insensibility which is none the les shocking that it dots not put itself to the trouble of affecting surprise and seems not to be troubled at all. Paul Morton's investigation f the affairs of the Equitable unuer the Alexander and Hyde management proves that institution to have been far more corrupt than was ever alleged by Tom Lawson or anybody else. fo form of villainy seems to have been too gross for the managers to resort to. If these scoundrels are not placed behind the bars it will be a grievous disappointment to people who believe in maintaining at least some degree of integrity in the control of financial institutions. South Bend Times.
Only Five Died. The 73d Indiana regiment re--union'held at Knox last wek was attended by 80 veterans. The next reunion mil "be "held at Valparaiso next year on the" third Wednesday in September. Only five members of the regiment died dttr'mg fhe past year, the smallest number of deaths in seven years. The following officers were elected: President, Ralph Upthegrove, Valparaiso; vice-president, John Herrold, Westville: secretary and treasurer, H. H. Williams, Chesterton ; executive committee, Charles Arnold, Valparaiso; George Maxwell, Kouts, and James Miller, Valparaiso.
Parker was Also There. Ex-Candidate Alton B. Parker accused insurance companies of aiding republicans in the campaign. When the investigation recorded the fact he stood up on his hind legs and cried, told you so." His assertion was apparently based on personal knowledge, and experience and participation, for McCall of the New York Life says Alton B. Parker took their contributions in 1S95 when he was an aspirant for the judgeship, "and took every dollar that was offered."' McCall also testified that in 1904 the democrats made him "tired" by their importunities for funds. So it's only a kettle cailing its enemy black names after all. Elkhart Review.
Decency and Good Government. If Gov. Hanly succeeds in closing the two Monte Carlos at French Lick and West Baden, ind. he will indeed achieve a most important victory, one that will place him in the front as the most successful of the reform executives of the United States of today. The governor will be confronted by a formidable opposition of the gambling fraternity and a corrupt political ring, together with the public around these vile resorts which derive so much pecuniary benefit from supplies furnished the gamblers, and only the power of his high ofiice used without fear or favor will enable him to triumph. He will be doing the cause of decency and good government a great service if he carries out his promise to put these wholesale gambling shops out of business, surely. South Bend Tribune.
The Restless American. One of the worst things about the average American is that he will sell anything he owns if he can get his price. This disposition on his part
tends to make hi;a unsettled. When a man has a good farm, a good home.
good neighbors and a good income, where can he possibly go to better his condition? In fact, where could he go where he would not be worse off? Lots of men find this truth out
j at an expense of a lot of money and
peace of mind. The sensible .thing for men to do in nine cases out of ten is to settle down contented, so far as expecting to find a home where everything is all right, and carefully study how they may make the old farm productive, their lives of more use to their families and to the
world. Nowhere in the world can one find better conditions than right at-home. Many a man has missed it ,by selling out and going north, south or west to Detter his condition.
