HEAR ADDRESS ON WASHINGTON

STUDENTS AND FACULTY AT HIGH SCHOOL JOIN IN DAY'S OBSERVANCE. ATTY. JESSE REEVES SPOKE Tells Hearers That Biographers Have Not Done Justice to fUAraa TXTa V in artin ... Yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock high school adjourned the wgekro the day and . the faculty and 'jf 4 hundred pupils assembled! in the iauditoriiun to listen to an .address on Washington by Attorney Jesse Reeves. 5 Wife "address was an 1 interestiffg and' scKoIarly one and was highly appreciated by all, present. -J,f L i :' Air "this " time of year it has ben customary to have the Junior public but this event being abolished it , was thought "admirable to inaugurate Lile custom of having an address of some importance on this occasion for the purpose jof keeping fresh in the minds of the young the splendid character of the great Washington. In this respect the address on yesterday afternoon was eminenty a success. Mr. Reeves said' "February 22ndis the only day 6f our year set apart as a memorial to a1 ni'an"We have the Fouffti of July which commemorates the; birth f or.r nation. Decorati6n Day a1 teuiitt-' 7 c, ers of New England.' But February 22, is'a"day set apart exclusively to keep before us the character and memojry of a man." r ' ' ; ; The Speaker thought Washington had been in many ways misrepresented Hby" his biographies! f' s He I never had the advantage, of :a college" Education froiri the tf act; that from ' his earliest youth he' was in some way eflgaged in' public service, He" said tbat the ' dominating idea of Washington from the outbreak of the Revolutionary War was disinterested service, lie had no original noti6ns""of statesmanship, for thetee he "looked r to Alexander Hamilton. He was yot k military strategist hr wlsNkbleo ttr Grant j but his great' success in the f war of the rbvblutlSir was due to his dogged determination of purpose? hi Wperb tact - arid' 'his supreni6 self ' restraint. 1 ' LOCAL Moles Already Plowing Under Lawns and Gardens and Fish Worms i Are Due. 4 i The harbingers , of spring are ar riving day by day and soon, if conditions continue to grow more aggravated, it will be spring indeed, and that? long before the spring months arive.

Cromer has refus to be; bled by " the district- committee out of $3,750, as his share of the ex penses of conducting a primary fqtf the nomination for oCngressman in the Eiarhth district." There are two reasons for his re fusal to pay the money. First, he has not got it, and second, if he" had it he feels that the assessment is ah outraseous one and made as part df the scheme to ' keep him out df "the running, because tne district com mittee has announced that unless the candidates pay up their names will not go on" the ticket. l! Mr.f Stillwell hs the myney,fand all once' "paid Usi assessment it had been fifty times the amount" ask ed, Mr. Stillwell r could ; have ;pai and still have had enough left to bu wood for the" rest of the winter; But with Cromer ; it is different. . He ip practically penniless, and in "debt sp deep 1 that he ' will h'ave: to work long 'time' to get out, and the $3,750 he arranged to borrow added s that much more to his liabilities. The district machine is against Cromer from top to bottom and he might just as well put his monev down a rathole. The whole thing looks as if it was only another, part of the scheme to keep Cromer off the ticket by playing on" his poverty j WILL NOT BUILD THIS YEAJ.

LOST HIS HD '

THROUGH HRY CALVIN MYERS -DISTRACTED BY IMAGINARY DEBTS FROM MANLOVE CASE. HIS DEATH BEO STATEMENT Made to a Personal Friend Was to the Effect That He Regretted His Rash Deed. (Palladium Special.) .;: 'Miltonfind., Feb. 22. Calvin ULyk era, .who died at his home, seven miles'! south of Milton last Friday, from a self -inflicted wound, is said to have committed -, suicide from brooding over the notorious Manlove case at; : RusSville" a few Months ago. A shi-rt time before his death My- . ers told ,Vf.2$r.

"lie imagined. them much iargei than they really wre. Owing 'to his mental 'condition come wonder has been expressed that Myers was left alone in vhis 1 hme the night that, he shot himself. Mr. Johnson, who is cognizant of all the facts, makes the following M'te' ment r ! ;tteih.0 ; It,;-, ; "The son and daughter-inrlaw of Mr. and Mrs." flyers were temporarily making their home ,wttli thenu Mrs. Myers had gone on a sad, but most worthy "mission, that .of : punniring va private and1 saife vasj hira: fort her afflicted husband, where he might; be f taken with the least publicity and receive the best trealmen' that money could obtain. - She had performed her mission and was 'returning home, first hearing what her husband had done when at Dublin. ... - "Calvin Myers bad ins:sted that his son attend a big' 3ale in proffress 'n't Dublin.

' l-i 1 do irqT;w4Nt:. &3it$inB.Tm: --TIAL IN NATURE. Agitation ' Started That Will Make New Law Favorable to Small ; . Merchants ' It will be of interest to all farmers on the rural routes and to the merchants generally, to know that an ag-v itation is now being started in Washington to modify the parcel post bill in such a way that it will not discriminate against the small tOwn or city business man and still give the I farmer the same service. The meas ure proposes to have the rural car ters delive all, mail and merchandise up. to eleven- pounds to their patrons ; on,: their- respective routes, provided the package is mailed at the. office from' which the rural route extends.'.; i In explanation it is stated that no L merchandise that is mailed outside the county in which the route oper-" ates, can. be delivered by the carriers" working at its destination. This prevents . the mailing :"of ' merchandise by the large mailing houses in the large cities, and will remove the principal objection that has been raised to the general parcels post bill -originally suggested. r ' t For instance, the mail houses of Chicago can send out goods only through Cook county. The business houses of" Richmond likewise, under the new plan, couhl sent merchandise through the post office, in towns in Wayne county. ' . 1 Under the old plan the bill intended to charge a stamp tax of one cent an ounce or'sixteen cents a pound. This price is said to be too hard on the farmer, and it is accordingly planned to make. "t, the unUornv tax three cents a", ponnd, jWitb ?.. single package weighing "over eleven pounds.
