To the Republicans of the Tenth Congressional District: The Republicans of the several counties composing the Tenth Congressional District of Indiana, will meet on Saturday, the 15th day of February, 1902, at such times and places as the county committee may designate for the purpose of selecting delegates and alternate delegates to the district convention to be held at the City of Monticello, in White county, Indiana, on Wednesday, February 19, 1902, at 1:30 p. m«, to nominate a candidate to represent the Tenth Congressional District of Indiana in Congress.

Mr. Cleveland refers to the Bryan heresy which was infused into his party in 1896 and 1900 as an “afflictive visitation.” Mr. Cleveland is never at a loss for a descriptive phrase. Members of Congress from the Pacific Coast are deeply interested in the construction of a Chinese wall around the United States—only this wall is to keep the Chinese on the outside. The not distant future promises to demonstrate the correctness of President Roosevelt’s view that it is the investor in the trusts rather than their competitors that need to be protected from them. A remarkable evidence of the esteem in which President McKinley was held by the working people was afforded in Homestead, Pa., recently. The majority of the employes of all grades contributed half a day’s pay to the McKinley Memorial Fund. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., a pupil; at the school at Gorton, Mass., discusses the subject of his relationship to the President in these words, “Of course I’m glad my father is President, but I don’t see why I should be bothered about it.” Mr. W. J. Bryan says he believes that the democratic platform in 1994 will contain the same financial plank as did the platform of 1900. It may, but we imagine that Mr. Bryan is one of the very few persons in the United States who believes it. Senator Depew says that if he believed he could solve the problem of procuring absolute safety for the passengers on the New York Central

THE BALANCE « OF HEALTH j|* Js often very much mjjl m against the wife. yp' luL Her strength is ungpr dermined, she loses flesh and her energy *nd courage slowly leak away from her. Gradually the comradeship of husband and wife is broken up. At first he takes his solitary pleasures reluctantly, but later he hardly seems to remember the old days over which his wife in her weakness mourns daily. Women who find their health failing, and womanly ailments fastening on thenj, should promptly begin the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription.

Railway, he would resign from the Senate, abandon his social pursuits and devote hjs life to it. King Oscar of Sweden is exhibiting a liberality which would do credit to the ruler of a greator nation. He has just taken steps toward granting home-rule to Iceiand. His course will confirm the loyalty of his Icelandic subjects. The Dingley tariff bill contains a reciprocity clause which was intended to render unnecessary arty immediate change by Congress of thfe'provisions of the bill. There are those who pro nounce any attempt to meet new conditions by means of the reciprocity clause a violation of the protection policy, but they are in grave error. The directors of railroads and mines of Shan-Se, China, has ap* pealed, through Minister Conger at Pekin, to American capitalists to invest in the railroads of Shan-Se province. He says that since their recent' troubles the Chinese prefer to deal with Americans, as they have greater confidence in their honesty. Do the people desire the election of the senators by the people ? Many people will answer yes, nevertheless it is a question which no one can answer. If the people, at any time, desire to send a particular man to the Senate they can do it 0 by electing a legislature pledged to support him. They have done this occasionally, but seldom. Governor Nash, of Ohio, recommends publicity for the corporations which receive their charters or licenses from the state. If the Governor is in earnest he can, by using his influence to secure legislation looking to that end, secure great popularity for his party and incidentally he can take the wind out of the sails of the Hon. Tom L. Johnson.

Arrow Shots

I shot an arrow into the air, Jt fell to the earth; I know not where. —Lonscfellow. If you think you have trouble, don’t worry. Everybody else has trouble. When a man kisses his wife and babe it is a serious question which he should kiss first. Any old man who sees a gun is started thereby into a lot of old stories about how he used to hunt. There is no use denying that an old maid who wears little curls down the side of her head looks very coy. Ever notice how many pretty girls there are nowadays ? The store with the nicest show windows also usually has the nicest stock inside. When a boy gets fine clothes on the brain his case is hopeless. Every man who wins on a bet or at ' drawing, says “This is the first time I ever won a thing.”

I All church denominations agree on one thing. They all tie the same kind of strings around their spoons at church suppers. If you want to see something real funny, watch a crowd of men and see how many different kinds of hats they wear. Considering all the trouble it is to take care of one’s self, it is a grave question sometimes whether it really pays to live. Women who go to a lecture and take their opera glasses to look around instead of listening, must have lots Lo do. Some days we feel just as if we would like to smash everybody we meet. No man is so worthless that he does not think he can do some things better than other men. In business you have to depend mostly on what other people do not say. A man is judged more or less by how he marries. Every time we see a house on wheels we think we would like to live that way. Did you ever look over an old album and see how funny folks looked twenty years ago ? You vyill look the same in twenty years from now. You will find a good many men are mean, of whom you did not expect it, if you have any dealings with tnern. Folks always hope an old man will live a long time when some young girl marries him. They do this out of kindness ! A man never sees a spittoon without being tempted to spit into it.

Half the trouble in the world is caused by people who will not do as they are told, but invent better plans to do things. Lots of people brag on your enemies just to make you still madder. Whenever a man admits that he doesn’t know a thing, he still makes a mental reservation. Look over the list of any college and you will hardly see a sensible oldfashioned name in the lot. The celebrated “Fresh Water” clothes wringer for $1.36 at Lee’s at McCoysburg. But that is only a sample of the way he sells everything. In a card in a Detroit newspaper a woman thus thanks an insurance company for a prompt payment of her claims. “August 9, husband took out a policy and in less than a month was drowned. I consider it a good investment.” The public school building at Kentland was destroyed by fire last Wednesday. It was built in 1871 at a cost of $23,000. There was an insurance on the building of $8,500

Scott’s Emulsion fixes all kinds. It does the work both inside and out. It makes soft bones hard, thin ljlood red, weak lungs strong, hollow piaces full. Only the best materials are used in the patching and the patches don’t show through the new glow of health. No one has to wait his turn.

No Time to Lose You cannot afford to disregard the warnings of a weak and diseased heart and put off taking the prescription of the world’s greatest authority on heart and nervous disorders- — Miles- Heart Cure. If your heart palpitates, flutters, or you are short of breath, have smothering spells, pain in left side, shoulder or arm, you have heart trouble and are liable to j drop dead any moment. Major J. W. Woodcock, one of the best known oil operators In the country dropped dead from heart disease j recently, at his home in Portland, Ind., while mowing his lawn.— The Press. Mrs. M. A. Birdsall, Watkins, N. Y. f whose portrait heads this advertisement, says: “I write this through gratitude for benefits I received from Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure. I had palpitation of the heart, severe pains under the left shoulder, and my general health was miserable. A few bottles of Dr. Miles’Heart Cure cured me entirely. Sold by all Druggists.

T j 1. Wheatfield Ditch, 23 per cent, of Assessed Benefits. Special lax Levies -j Gallagher Ditch, IS per cent, of Cost of Construction. ALL the Road and Bridge Tax and ONE-HALF of all other taxes make the FIRST INSTALLMENT and must be paid on or before the FIRST Monday in May, 1902. ONE-HALF of all taxes, except Road and Bridge, constitute the SECOND INSTALLMENT, and must be paid on or before the FIRST Monday in November, 1902. Failure to pay the First Installment when due makes both installments delinquent and attaches a penalty of ten per cent, to the full amount. The conditions prevailing are such that the Treasurer CANNOT make* and hold receipts for any one. Please do not ask it. PROVISIONS OF LAW RELATING TO TAXATION. “The owner of property on the first day of April of year shall be liable for the taxes of that year. The purchaser on the first day of April shall be considered the owner on that day.” Purchasers of PERSONAL Property as well as Real Estate should remember that “TAXES FOLLOW THE PROPERTY when the taxes thereon remain unpaid.” “COUNTY ORDERS in favor of persons owing delinquent taxes cannot be paid without settle-' ment of the taxes.” “It is the duty of the TAX-PAYER to state definitely on what property he desires to pay taxes, in whose name assessed'and in what township or town it was assessed. THE TREASURER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE for the penalties and charges resulting from the taxpayer’s omission to so state.” The Tax Duplicate for any year is made with reference to property on the first day of April of that year and remains unchanged for the year as to the showing of property, and in whose name assessed and taxed. Transfers after the first day of April of any year will never appear upon the Duplicate of that year’s taxes. Those who pay taxes on property in trust, and whose taxes are complicated, such as undivided estates, etc., should pay early enough to avoid the rush of the last few days, as it requires time to make the divisions and separate receipts. ROAD RECEIPTS MUST be presented in payment of FIRST INSTALLMENT. The Annual Sale of Delinquent Lands and Lots will take place on the SECOND MONDAY of FEBRUARY, 1902. R. A. PARKISON, Rensselaer, Ind., January 1, 1902. Treasurer of Jasper County.
