Only Republican Newspaper in the County, HENDRICKS & COMPANY OFFICE Hissell UuiMing. corner Laporte and Center Streets. Entered at the Postoffice at I'lymouth, Indiana as second class matter. Plymouth, Ind., January 24, 1907. After March 4 only one Democrat from a northern state will remain in the United States senate. The solid south will observe that there are others. J J Much is heard of lobbyists, yet the pages of the directories will be turned in vain to find the name of any one announcing that he follows the vocation. Jt The lowest bidder for digging the Panama canal says he will have the work done by the American negro. Add the Missouri mule and the com bination is invincible. JC jfi Indiani lawmakers refuse to vote to keep lobbyists out and in Missouri lobbyists swarm about the state house in spite of the orders of Gov Folk. Vtrily, the lobbyist is a busy uoy. ? J C If tainted money is such an awful thing how can states excuse their use of fines that are assessed for viola tions of law, and in punishment for crime? That certainly is tainted cash. And et states are eager to bring suits against corporations more for the sake of the funds thus swollen than for any rebuke to criminal action. Elkhart Review. J J j Mr., Mulkey, elected n: Orearon Tuesday fills out the unexpired term of the late Senator John H Mitchell, ending in March, when Mr Bourne also elected Tuesday, will succeed to the seat for a full term Neither man displaces Senator Ful ton, who holdf till. March, 1009. Both Mulkey Incf-Bourne were chosen at direct primaries m April and the pop ular election in June. J J J 1 From Houston, Texas, comes word of attempted assassination of white families by their negro servants Should such a condition become general,the race war, of which Tillman talks so much, would be fraught with unspeakable horrors. Yet it can not be said that such a result is not a logical sequence of the bitter feeling engendered by such leaders as Senator Tillman. Even the worm will turn. J J J Governor Stuart, the newly inaugurated republican governor of Pennsyl vania, made a very favorable impression upon the people of that commonwealth, regardless of party, by reiterating his determination firmly to stand by his before election promises and pledges. A very kindly feeling is being manifested toward, him by the papers that most strenuously opposed his election. It is pleasing to note the fact that in a large majority of the states the reform spirit remains sufficiently aroused to warrant the Lelief that practical results will grow out of the agitation.

The Thousands that thronged our store during the past few days, carried away thousands of dollars worth of the great bargains we are offering. Still the stock offers tempting inducements to the seeker after values. Do not let this, the Greatest Sale ever given in Marshall County, pass without participating in this great bargain event. Read these prices and come in. Here's a chance to save that may never happen again.

The anti-lobby bill was killed in

the state senate Tuesday. Whether the senate is satisfied that it is incorruptible or whether a majority of its members want to be corrupted, is a question for discussion. Jt Big Rural Route Business. D. F. Smith, a Culver rural route carrier, makes the claim, with proofs attached, of doing the largest business in the state. He has completed a report of the past jcar, which shows that in the largest month's business he handled 19,300 pieces. Mr. Smith also claims that he leads the world's record on money order business, having in a single day, July 17, 190G, taken 87 applications. His route is 24 miles in length, which he covers in six and a half hours. For two miles the boxes average 170 feet apart. The Maxinkuckee lake cottages furnish the bulk of his business. Mr. Smith takes pride in being a member of the illustrious Smith family, and is in favor of shorter routes and a larger appropriation. Bailey Re-elected Senator. Austin, Tex., Jan. 22 Senator Joseph W. Bailey was today re-elected United States senator from this state by a vote, in the two branches of the State Legislature, of 103 to 45. In the State Senate the vote was nineteen in favor of Senator Bailey and ten against him, and in the Lower House Senator Bailey received eighty-nine votes and thirty-five were cast against him. The prediction is freely made that the legislative action today has split the- Democracy .wide open in Texas. The vote in opposition to Senator Bailey represented a scattering vote cast for Cecil Lyon, the Republican nominee, Governor T. M. Campbell, former Representative A. V. Terrell and other prominent men of the State. In the House seven members present did not vote and two were absent. The vote necessary to an election is eighty-three votes, and today's resultreturns Senator Bail.ey to the United Stages senate for a term of six yer.rs. The two Houses will meet in joint session tomorrow to canvass the vote. Prison Binder Twine. Gus Greiger, representative from Laporte and Porter counties, has introduced a bill to appropriate $200,000 for the extension of the binder twine plant at the Indiana prison. Recommendation along this line, though not suggesting the amount, was made by Governor Hanly in his message. "Contracts for the employment of the men at Michigan City will expire in 1910," said Greiger, "and the men will be left idle if provision is not made for their employment. The operation of the comparatively small plan has proved profitable. Insurance Cost. It is estimated that it will cost the state in the neighborhood of $19,000 annually to maintain the department of insurance, which Governor Hanly recommended in his message and for which the bill introduced by Representative Babcock a few days ago, provides.

Kingston and the Ohio. The American people have a much more serious disaster at nome, in the Ohio Valley Hoods, than mat in Jamaica. This will be evident to any one who stops to consider the population affected. The latest estimate of the total population of Jamaica was 080,000, over nine-tenths of whom are negroes or mixed blood. The population of Kingston is estimated at 50,000, in about the same proportion. The great mass of the population are poor, and their dwellings are cheap, tumble-down affairs. The cattle of the country are pastured in the hills. Consequently the general property loss can not be extensive. The population of Cincinnati, Covington and Newport in 1900 was 397,141. The population of Louisville, New Albany and Jeffersonvilk was 230,133. The total population of these cities and their suburbs undoubtedly exceeds the total population of Jamaica. But a mere comparison of population probably give. an inadequate idea of the relative Iosi or of the relative suffering. Cincinnati reports about 20,000 homeless people in that immediate vicinity, but Portsmouth reports about 10,000 in its vicinity, and it is a place of only 18.000 population. Moreover, the losses of the farmers in the Ohio valley lands must be much greater than those of the city sufferers, for a large part of their crops has been destroyed, together with the supplies they had laid in for winter, their clothing, furniture live stock and otr er property. The suffering of the homeless is also relatively greater on account of the mild climate of Jamaica, and ' the abundance of sub-tropical fruits and vegetables. It is evident, therefore, that the United States may well afford to centralize its charitable work on its home disaster. The reports thus far received . have been from telegraph centers, but it must be remembered that the windstorm has prevented in large part the relief of isolated victims of the floods, and has prevented learning the full extent of .the. losses of liie and property. At Evansville for example, the relief boats were unable to start out until Monday morning on account of the storm. From other points come similar reports, with occasional stories of missing relief parties that ventured out.

Weather Guess Year Ahead. Professor Frank H. Bigelow, weather forecaster, told the University of Chicago students in a lecture that he is now prepared to make weather forecasts a year in advance by observing the sun spots. The kind of weather indicated by the spots reaches the earth a year after the signs appear. "Local conditions may affect the predictions somewhat," he said, "but they will all be fulfilled in time. The curve of the sun spots corresponds to the temperature curve." The professor had said it would be warmer Tuesday with southerly winds, but the weather was colder and the wind was in the north. .

Thomas J. Wright, the first white child, born in Kosciusko county, is still living in that county. He is past 73 years old. Eighteen hundred persons are declared to have lost their lives in a tidal wave which swept over some of the Dutch East Indian islands on Jan. 11. Rev. J. J. Coleman is engaged in church work at Frankfort and other sections of central Indiana. lie now has the principal work of the Wesleyan church, which was performed by Rev. Aaron Worth for almost forty years. The family of Joseph Stein were very sick this morning from ptomaine poisoning caused by eating soup. Dr. Knott was called and all are out of danger. It is supposed to have been caused by leaving meat stand in a kettle over night. Just to what extent educational interests of Indiana will feel an uplift from the war now on between Purdue and the state university is somewhat problematical, but that it will greatly amuse, if it does not actually edify, the state is beyond question. Arthur O'Keefe, who has been employed in County Treasurer Irvine's office, returned to his home at Plymouth on Thursday evening, having received a message announcing the death of his grandmother, Mrs. Maria O'Keefe. Warsaw Times. The first honors in. the preliminary oratorical contest of the Plymouth high school Friday afternoon were won by Hubert Tanner; second by Harriet Gunder and third by Laura Shoemaker. The school is preparing :or the county contest in March. The floods in northern Ohio wert Supplemente', by a wind Saturday night that unroofed buildings, blew down the machinery of oil and gas wells, telephone posts, trees and fences. The sleet and snow accompanying the storm caused much live stock to' perish." Senators and representatives to the legislature from this county have always been allowed $48.00 for mileage, twenty cents a mile, and at the same time thry had passes over all the railroads in Plymouth. This year they can use a part of their mileage to pay railway fares. In denying a rehearing in the case of Cain vs Allen, the Indiana supreme court Friday emphatically declared that no names can be withdrawn from a blanket remonstrance against saloon licenses under the Moore law, after a petition is once duly presented. It is remarkable to witness the quantrty of tobaccos and cigars, to say nothing of cigarettes, smoked by boys and young men in Plymouth. A tobbacconist of this city says the 'average boy consumes $1.00 worth of tobacco every week, which is over fifty dollars in a year. It is quite probable that Bremen will have a new business enterprise in the near future a plant for the manufacture of cement brick, building blocks and drain tile. Jacob Carbiener and A. J. Knoblock are behind the project, and were in Chicago last week looking after machinery for their purpose.

Reports from the towns along the Kankakee state that the stream is the highest known for years and that it has spread over miles of low lands in Starke, Laporte, Porter, Jasper and Lake counties. People living in" the low lands have been driven from their homes and a great amount of damage has been done. f It is reported that high license is doomed in the Indiana legislature. Forty Democratic representatives and fifteen Republicans are pledged to vote against temperaoce legislation. The liquor interests therefore have five more votes than is necessary to prevent any change in the legislation that is not favorable to them. Bender of West townsnip, the man who sells meat and is charged with extreme cruelty to his family, was brought before the prosecuting attorney Monday and was allowed to go on a promise of better behavior in the future, and with the understanding that his case will be presented to the grand jury if he does It cost $70,000 o get a jury in the Shea conspiracy case at Chicago and then the jury was dismissed after listening to the evidence and the lawyers could not agree on a verdict and were discharged. The Illinois legislature now in session should reform the state's procedure in criminal cases and especially with respect to choosing jurors. The value of a good reparation is illustrated in the case of Lewis Fuller, of Goshen, who was given a life sentence for the murder of his wife. The evidence against him was all circumstantial, and it was by no means a strong case; but the fellow had a bad reputation generally in the community and it is probable that this had much to do with the result. John Moorman, Republican chairman of the Thirteenth district, is looking in about the legislative halls to see whether he can not get a few more appointments for his friends. The : Democrats make the,, assertion that; Moorman . has already secured places for about .11 who gave" Congressman Brick a plurality in the Thirteenth district and still is not satisfied. The Ohio river valley is now in the grasp of the greatest flood in its history Wr;h worse yet to come. Today and tonight hundreds of thousands of acres of farrri ig lands that had never been under water since they were opened for cultivation are inundated. The situation is ten times worse than in the historic flood of 1884, when tue lowlands had not been drained and were scarcely settled. Four eclipses of the sun and moon are to occur in 1907. The first was on Monday, last, and was a total eclipse of the sun invisible to North America. The next eclipse will occur on January 29, and will be a partial eclipse of the moon and it can be seen here. Those who desire to see me shadow creep across the face of the moon will have to be early risers, as the big shew starts at 6:06 in the morning.

Senator Ranked bill to change the trained nurse law so that a nurse shall be required to have a common school but not a high school education was defeated, which is probably just as well. Illiterate negro mammies have made good nurses, but in these days a greater degree of intelligence is required of women in this service. A high school garduate will not necessarily make a good nurse, but other things being equal the more education she has the better. Death of J. S. Middleton. J. Solomon Middleton died at his home in, the north part of this tcity about 7i o'clock ; Saturday morning after a short illness caused by congestion of the stomach.

Unlawful to Color Butter. Farmers' wives should be very careful at this season of the year with the coloring of butter, fcs the pure food law specially forbids the use of any coloring malter used in the preparation of butter. It also provides that all moisture over 16 ,er cent must be worked out. By this is meant that all buttermilk must be worked out over this amount. During the winter months dry feed is used principally to feed milch cows and the butter is usually very white and the coloring matter is used more or less by all butter makers. Any infraction of these laws, though not intentional by farmers' wives, might cause them to be fined under the pure food law.
