'PRINCETON "DRY" BY BUT 48 VOTES Two Years Ago "Wet" Element of Town Won by 201 Votes.

(National News Association) ( PRIN'CETON. Ind April 4. In the city option election here yesterday Princeton went "dry" by 48. The election was quietly conducted, but both Bides worked hard in getting out their ivote. Nearly 90 per cent of the vote 'was cast, he only "wet" majority was In the Fourth Ward, the railroad shops ward, which gave a majority of 69 for the "wets." The First Ward was 9 "dry," the Second ward 55 "dry" and the Third ward 53 "dry." The seven saloons here closed Monday night, their licenses expiring at that time. In some of the wards the anti-saloon workers had prepared to use remonstrances to prevent saloons in their respective wards in case the election failed them. Two years ago Princeton went "wet" by 201. HEAR PETITIONS APRIL 9. MARION", Ind., April 4. Grant county commissioners have named Wednesday, April 9, as the date for hearing petitions for liquor license. Five applications have been filed asking saloon license in Gas City, which voted "wet" at the recent election, but it Is said a remonstrance, now being circulated, will be filed against these applicants. In Center Township, that part outside of Marion, is "wet" by reason of the election held two years ago, but up to tonight the only application filed was that of the Centilevre Brewing Company, which asked for "wholesale license both in Center township and Gas City. Three saloon men have published notice that they would ask for 'retailers license in Center Township, jbut so far have failed to file application with the county auditor. "WETS" EXPECT TO WIN. ' GOSHEN, Ind., April 4 Although ;the "dry" forces are energetic in their campaign here, it is evident, since the j "wets" have carried Elkhart by 305 ! majority, that there is little probability 'of Goshen voting against licensed j j saloons next Monday. Two year ago "wets" won here by 146. The "drys" ;are publishing a pamphlet named the iGoshed Bulletin, which is p!aced in 'every home in the city. The "wets" 'have not held public meetings. They lhave a working organization, however, 'and are prepared to get out their full Ivote. REMONSTRANCE IS FILED.

Political Convulsion of Mexico Revives Memory of Cerro Gordo

The political convulsion of Mexico revives the memory of our war with that country. April eighteenth marked the sixty-sixth anniversary of an important action of that war the battle of Cerro Gordo. The annals of American valor record no more splendid achievement than the forcing of the approaches to, and the winning of, the heights of Cerro Gordo. History, engrossed with the records of the Civil War, is apparently neglectful of our struggle with Mexico. Scott's Famous March. In the early part of April, 1847, Gen. Scott began his famous march to the interior. Upon April 11, the Americans at Plan del Rio learned that Santa Anna, with a force of 16,000 men, was in the neighborhood of Cerro Gordo. The topography of the country, as determined by a reconnaissance, disclosed a series of heights, one arising above another, each furrowed with trenches and strongly fortified. The road was also found to be barricaded. Nothing daunted, on the morning of the 14th, the Americans began to advance. A reconnaissance discovered the fact that a frontal attack would inevitably result in great slaughter. Commanding the only road they might follow was a series of frowningly fortified cliffs rising ledge upon ledges. The erratic course of this road with its debouches and curves left several points open to an enfilading fire from the sullen batteries that bristled on the heights above it. Scott, with his humane consideration, resolved upon another plan of advance. He conceived and executed the idea of opening another road leading at a tangent from the one established. Abruptly leaving the old road, the new one entered and traversed a deep ravine skirting the base of the mountains, thus enabling them to advance hidden from the enemy's view. For three days the Americans worked uninterruptedly. On the 17th, as they drew near the Mexican lines, their discovery was announced by the enemy's fire. When discovered, the distance to the Jalapa road (from which they had diverged) was so slight that Twigg's division was ordered to advance on the new road, and with Shield's brigade, engage the enemy's left, with the object of turning it. Capture of Heights. In order to accomplish this, it was necessary to capture the heights below Cerro Gordo. As a preliminary movement, a company of the Seventh Infantry under Lieutenant Gardner was detailed to reconnoitre a height to the left. Simultaneously with their forward movement, the Mexican skirmish line, supported by a heavy reserve, advanced to meet them. Gardner held his position until reinforced by General Harney with Sumner's Rifles and Child's Artillery. Rapidly forming his line, Harney led his men to the summit and charged the Mexicans, forcing them down the steep hillside and driving them up and over another and yet another of the neighboring heights. From the height in front of the Tower, and supported by its guns, the battered Mexican forces were thrice driven to finally seek the shelter of the citadel. When the enemy had reached the enclosure, it was discovered by Colonel Childs, who led the final charge, that the Mexicans had

CIVIL PEKSIONS Fort Wayne, Ind., News.

The school board at Richmond has refused to levy a tax under the new teachers' pension act, and the papers of that city very cordially commend the decision. As the question is one that may arise in Fort Wayne, this comment is not uninteresting. The Palladium says: "The Palladium believes the school board should be commended for its decision to stand pat on its refusal to take the initial step for creating a fund to pension teachers under the provisions of an act, passed by the last legislature, which appears to be unconstitutional, and which is certainly most unfair to the tax payers of Richmond. "The Palladium Is a staunch advocate of any plan for pensioning such public servants as teachers, policemen and firemen who have become iocapaciated for service through accident, disease or the infirmities of old age, but it most positively is against any pensioning plan (and it believes it is reflecting popular opinion in this opposition) which retires public servants in the prime of life at the expense of the tax payers. "The Palladium believes that a law which would permit Supt. T. A. Mott to retire from service with the Richmond public schools on an annual pension of $430 and permit him to draw a salary of $1,500 as superintendent of the Seymour, Ind., schools, is absolutely unjust to the people of Richmond, but this is precisely what he would be permitted to do if a school teachers' pension fund, was created in Richmond. And we find Mr. Mott advocating the creation of such a fund. "An inspection of the teasers' pension law for cities with populations varying from 20,00o'to 100,000 reveals the following provisions. Read them and judge for yourself if you think they are fair to the public which must pay an additional cents tax levy to carry them out, and receive no direct returns on the same. "Teachers who have served between 20 and 30 years may be retired at any time within the period specified and receive a" pension if the pension fund commission decides they are entitled to receive such reward. As teachers in this class cannot withdraw the money they have paid into the pension fund, as teachers who have served less than 20 years can, and as the majority of the commission are teachers, it is reasonable to prt

been routed by sixty men. Hastily gathering his diminished forces, the heroic survivors slowly retired, carrying their wounded with them. With the winning of the height in front of Cerro Gordo, their greatest task awaited them the capture of the Tower. A thouand men, detailed to plant a battery on this height, worked nearly the whole night long to accomplish it. Up the rugged mountainside one 24-pounder and two 24-pound howitzers were lifted by sheer muscular force. Assault on 18th. On the morning of the 18th, the grand assault on Cerro Gordo was begun. To add to the difficulties of the undertaking, a German soldier deserting on the 17th from the American ranks had completely divulged to the Mexicans the American plan of attack. Occupying the fortified heights, and favored by friendly ravines with high and precipitous walls, were 8000 Mexicans. In addition to these, in the rear of Cerro Gordo, and so disposed upon the plain as to render them instantly available for the support of any point to which the tide of battle might call them, were 6000 reserves. The total American force numbered 8000 men. With the opening fire of the battery planted the night before the assault was inaugurated. The soldiers of the storming party, organized by General Harney, were picked veterans men schooled in the experience of desparate battle, among them the survivors of Palo Alto and Monterey. This party consisted of four companies of artillery under Colonel Childs, the Seventh Infantry under Lieutenant Colonel Plympton, six companies of the Third Infantry under Major Loring. With the infantry disposed to the right and left, with artillery in the rear and the Rifles detached to oppose a portion of the enemy advancing to suport Cerro Gordo, Harney gave the order to charge. Into the merciless storm of fire they plunged down the hill and across the ravine they swept; then, with forces decimated, but with undaunted hearts, on and up the bloody steep they went. Below, in the ravine, with a stubborn fortitude that will forever shed glory on the American name, the detached Rifles, enfladed and swept by the deadly fire of blazing batteries, defiantly blocked the path of the enemy's succoring forces. Harney Lead Charge. Survivors of that memorable day relate how Harney, with his towering form and powerful voice, lead the famous charge up the awful height how Death reaped his bloody harvest how dying heroes fell while others pressed to fill the broken ranks how the breastwork encircling the Tower was triumphantly carried in the last, dreadful charge how the artillerists were bayonnetted at their guns and how the frightened Mexicans, battered and beaten, were driven from their last stronghold. As a result of this victory, the Americans captured 3000 Mexicans, 43 pieces of artillery, more than 4000 stands of arms, and a vast store of valuable amunition. This success of American arms, whether viewed from the standpoint of the enemy's wellnigh impregnable position, his numerical superiority, or his superior knowledge of the territory invaded, is worthy of a prominent place in our military history.

BISHOPS APPOINTED

On the Proposal of Cardinal De Lai. (National News Association) ROME, April 4. On the proposal of Cardinal De Lai, secretary of the consistorial congregation, Pope Pius has appointed the Rev. P. Nuasbaum, Passionist consultor at Baltimore and formerly of West Hoboken, N. J., to ba bishop of the diocese of Corpul Christi. The Rev. J. T. McN.illy, formerly of Almonte, province of Ontario, has been nominated bishop of the new diocese of Calgary, Canada. eight hours or less per day. Conditions surrounding their work, in reference to sanitation and environment, are as nearly ideal as it is possible to make them in the teaching profession. The salaries, fixed by the state law, are more nearly in keeping with the requirements of the profession than ever before in the history of the school system. A few years ago they demanded and were granted extra pay for institute work. "For the most part school teachers are unmarried women. Not many have families directly dependent upon them. There are, of course, some exceptions, but the exceptions usually are principals, or teachers in advanced positions, where the rewards are greater than for the primary work. "Salaries for the teachers average $750 to $800. The fact that there are more engaged in the lower grades, where, naturally, the salaries are lower, brings down the average. Principals, Garfield and high school teachers are better paid, the average for such positions being in excess of . $1,100 per year, and approaching $100 per month for 12 months. "There are 42 on the roster of those who might benefit by the enforcement of the new pension law. More than $15,000 per year will be required from the public treasury to pay the annuities. Principal Ramsey insists that there are few who would take advantage of the law. Yet in view of the fact that opportunity exists, tax payers are hardly of a humor to trust this option to those who would defend and seek the acceptance of such a measure. "There are thousands of shop men, whose annual pay roll will total far below the minimum wage paid teachers in Richmond. These men are providing for families. It is a hard struggle in many cases. Yet a great majority are sending their children to school, a splendidly large number of them through high school. Must they be burdened further with this increase in taxes?" And right in this last paragraph of the Item's comment is found the most forceful argument against the proposition, although its true worth is not particularly dwelt upon. The argument is this: Civil pensions by, the government to any class of persons are grievously unjust until the workers in eveiy legitimate activity can be pensioned. And from the very nature of things the imposition of a burden so tremendous upon the tax-paying public it utterly impracticable. There is no more reason why a school teacher should be pensioned than why a A GENEROUS OFFER Your Money Refunded If Parisian Sage Doesn't Banish Dandruff. Pretty strong talk, perhaps you'll say, but it is honest talk, every word of it, because if Leo H. Fine was not absolutely certain; if he did not know from actual results obtained, h could not make Buch a generous oiler. Parisian Sage can now be obtained in every town in America. It is guaranteed to stop falling hair and itching scalp. It is the ideal, delightful, rejuvenating hair dressing that makes hair grow in abundance. Parisian Sage is a prime favorite with women, because it keeps the hair brilliant and fascinating, is daintily perfumed, and is not sticky or greasy. The price for a large bottle is only 50 cents at Leo H. Fihe's, who guarantees it. Sold everywhere, or direct, all charges prepaid, by the American makers, Glroux Mfg. Co., Buffalo, New York.

worker in any other field of endeavor should be. If the teacher is entitled to. public assistance, so are the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker, for they, too. serve the public Each is a cog in the great machine that is designed to promote the happiness and welfare of mankind. The school teacher is a school teacher from choice, preferring that work to another, and this very element of free will in avocation relieves the public of peculiar responsibility as to pensions for any particular class. It owes the teacher no more than it owes any other worker. To be sure, If the teacher were drafted for service the case would be altogether different, but the element of compulsion is entirely absent. One becomes a school teacher because one prefers that work to employment of another kind. It is comparatively light work, is eminently respectable, carries social prestige, and is remunerative. It is not confining and is especially pleasant to the conscientious in that it affords a wide field for doing good. Yet those who follow this work are entitled to no more consideration from the public than are workers in more humble lines, for each has served according to his lights and his implements.

The fact of the matter is that the whole idea of civil pensions is wrong. It places a premium on profligacy, discourages that thrift which is the basis of good citizenship, and visits a tremendous burden upon society. Better by far let the idea prevail that those, who in the days of their strength neglect to fortify against the weakness of old age and who trust that somehow tomorrow will take care of the deficiencies of today, shall suffer chill penury than that we raise up a nation of people who live from hand to mouth, serene in the assurance of state aid in their old age.
