Unly Republican Newspaper in the County. HENDRICKS & COMPANY OFFICE Bissell Building, corner Laporte and Center Streets. Entered at the Postoffice at Plymouth, Indiana as second-class matter. Plymouth, Ind., February 8, 1906. A great waterway to the gulf would be a good thing for the West, no doubt, but the plan now on foot, which involves an outlay of $31,000000 by the Government in making the Illinois River navigable and in improving the Mississippi above St. Louis, could be modified to advantage by spending a part of that sum on the Wabash and the Ohio. The Ohio is a great waterway in itself and has been neglected by the Government. 8 The President has made public a letter urging upon Congress a modification of the law against hazing at the Naval Acadcmv. Unless Congress shall promptly mend the existing law against hazing, which makes mandatory the dismissal of any midshipman found guilty of any form of hazing, the secretary of the navy may be forced to dismiss thirty-three midshipmen from the Naval Academy within the next month in addition to the eight who have already suffered this penalty and the three whose cases are awaiting the action of the department. & & Events of the last few days have shown the wisdom of the course of the President in making only one large demand on Congress at this session the demand for railroad rate legislation. By putting "all his eggs in one basket" he placed the Senate at a great disadvantage. When the anti-railroad rate Senators approach the White House now with a proposition to do so and so with reference to other pending legislation if the President will yield on some of the vital provosions in the railroad rate program, he is able to say to them: "You have not anything to trade." It is pretty well understood that the President wou'd sacrifice the Santo Domingo treaty, the Philippine tariff bill, the pure food bill, and the joint statehood bill, before he would consent that there shali be no railroad rate legislation. J v. The allied railroads of the country are sending their best lawyers to Washington to find out the meaning of the tendency of the House of Representatives to investigate various phases' of their business. Within the last few days they are showing more concern .ibout this disposition on the part of the House to investigate than about the fate of railroad rate legislation. It may turn out that before the finish comes they will be willing to accept almost any kind of rate legislation provided the proposed investigations are called off. No one can foretell accurately at this time what will come of the tendency in the House, but this much is ptain many members are demanding that i!ere shall be a comittee inquiry that will bring out all the facts relating to the alleged merger of practically all the railroads of the country into a few great systems. J J An Old Editor's Opinion. The Elkhart Review whose editor is one of the oldest and ablest in Indiana says: The unseemly squabble among Marshall county Republicans is the natural result of two newspapers of the same faith. It is one of the legacies of inordinate ambition and desire to rule and determination to ruin of one man, and not a resident of the county either. ADVERTISED LETTERS. Stikc & Douglas. L. Rhinehart J.

NO COMMITTEE MEETING.

Last Saturday's Proceedings a Laughable Farce. Metsker, Boys and a few other Democrats who are schemeing to disrupt the Republican party in Marshall county have sent out to various papers a statement that a meeting of the Republican county committee was held in Plymouth last Saturday afternoon and much business of a sensational character transacted. Nobody knows better than Mr. Metsker that this statement is not true. He has been a member of legislature, has had considerable experience in politics and knows that if the Plymouth school boys had held a mock committee meeting last Saturday and elected a chairman and other officers of the Democratic county committee, it would have been just as legal and just as binding as the action which he styles a meeting of the Republican committee last Saturday. Very few people can be hoodwinked by this scheme of Metsker & Co. To show the absurdity of any business being transacted at the Metsker Roys meeting it is only necessary to state that no official call for a meeting had been made. The call was issued and signed by one cotnniitteman only, ami did not state the object of the meeting. Tin re are seven committeemen in the township where this man resides and as none of the other members of the committee agreed with him it seems that Metsker and Roys succeeded in making him believe that he constituted the entire party of Marshall county. Official calls for the meetings of the Republican county committee will be signed by W. G. Hendricks, chairman and C. M. Parks, secretaray. 'Ihe list of officers and members of the Republican committee chosen regularly under the call of the State, District and Countv chairman will be. found in another column. The offi-' ccrs were chosen at the regular meet-; ing called for that purpose, January i:, and no vacancy has occurred. We wish to say right here, as we have said before that Mr. Hendricks is not the chairman of any clique or faction. He is chairman of the Republican party of Marshall county, and will not use his influence as chairman to advance the interests of any faction or any individual. All the ofcers of the committee are tried and true Republicans, men who place the success of principle above the success of individuals, men who will make a long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together to place Marshall county in the list of Republican counties of Indiana. The chairman believes in the good common sense of the masses, belicvs that the rank and file should assist ii nominating as well as in electing candidates, and that the committee v. ill not attempt to dictate nominations but it'wrll do everything posiole to elect the men placed on the ticket by the Republican county convention and he hopes to have and will have the assistance of every true Republican in the county. The county chairman will know no factions in this campaign. The Republicans who wished to place some other man at the head of the committee will be accorded exactly the same rights and privileges as those who voted for him. He believes that the people should select candidates and he will do all in his power to give every man who asks for a nomination on the county, district and state tickets a fair show, and after the nominations are maae he will expect every candidate, every committeeman and every Repubican to roll up his sleeves and go to work to elect the whole ticket. No member of the county committee who is a true Republican and no true Republican, who is not a member of the committee will listen to a man or men sent out to induce them to assist in destroying the Repubican organization of this county. immediate interest to a loss rather than

In conclusion we will say that no member "of the county committee has made any complaint to Mr. Hendricks or expressed any dissatisfaction with what he has done since he was chosen, consequently it seems that all of them should be and will be willing to assist him in perfecting an organization that will give us victory in Marshall county.

Repudiates Mayer Hosey. Mayor Hosey, regardless of promises allows Fort Wayne to run wide open. As he was elected with the understanding that he would enforce the laws his pledges have been broken. Five Sundays has he allowed the saloons to remain open and he has done this seemingly in open defiance of promises which he made before election. Therefore the Fort Wayne Sentinel the newspaper which stood sponser for Hosey when he was weak and needed a political organ, repudiates him. After having duly warned him that such a course was inevitable unless he changed his policy and after having given him an another chance to make good the Sentinel says: "ihis newspaper feels impelled to repudiate its ante-election endorsement of Mr. Hosey and to apologize to any voters who may have been influenced by the Sentinel's approbation of Mr. Hosey to vote for him." It must be decidedly humiliating for a self-respecting newspaper to be forced to take such a position. If, however, more of them would follow the example of the Sentinel and boldly acknowledge that they were wrong in recommending certain men for political preferrment, politics might be clarified as a result. South Bend Tribune. Difficulties of Labor Leadership. The Pittsburg miners who made rough house with Patrick Dolan, president of their union, for his action at Indianapolis in voting for a compromise vith the mine owners, supplied an instructive exhibit in the difficulties of labor leadership. It is fair to assume that Dolan is sincere in hU desire to do the best for himself and his fellows, and that he is correcily informed as to the proportion of organized and unorganized labor in his district. When he votes to compromise the issue, therefore, and reminds the miners of the awful cost and suffering a strike would involve his words are entitled toa respectful consideration and his arguments should be met with reason, and not with riotous signs of rage. It is unfortunately true that conservative men like Dolan ,or men who, while naturally radical, have profited by the hard lessons of experience, are very often set aside by labor unions.

PREACHER SUICIDES.

Threatened With Exposure by Newspapers and Ordered to Leave Town. The Rev. Dr. George Simmons of Peoria, 111., committed suicide Tuesday morning. He was found dead in bed by members of the family. He had taken cyanide of potassium. Pastor of the First Baptist church, president of the two savings banks, originator of Mocon ,a substitute for coffee, author of a number of religious works, and widely known as a lecturer, recently chosen to take charge of the Yates campaign in Illinois, Dr. Simmons was one. of the best known preachers in the West. Not until late last week had a word ever been whispered against his personal character. But on Saturday morning complaint was made to the states attorney that Simmons had been corrupting the minds and morals of a number of small boys who belonged to the Baptist Boys' Brigade. A quiet investigation revealed the facts though they were kept from the general public. The editors of the Star, Journal and Herald transcipt called him in and told him that if he would leave the city within 24 hours there would be no prosecution in order to save a scandal and keep the boys from losing their reputations for life. He consented and at once resigned as president of the Interstate Bank and Trust company, which he had organized on an original plan last summer. Simmons formerly was pastor at Terre Haute, Ind., and Henderson. Ky. Republican County Committee. Chairman, W. G. Hendricks, Plymouth. Secretary, C. M. Parks, Bourbon. Vice Chairman Dr. N. B.

Owensville is perhaps the only town in the state where merchants are compelled to keep a Bible in a conspicuous place about the store. This is one of the results of the big religious revivals thai have been in progress here for two months. Men who gather about the stoves in the different stores discuss the teachings of the Bible now, and so interesting do the discussions become that the Bible is necessary to settle disputes, and many of the merchants are now keeping a copy of the Holy book on hand in order that the differences of opinion relating to it may be rightly settled and certain verses of Scripture rightly quoted.
