Nattie Scott is not much behind "Baldy” Powers when ti comes to catching fish. Nattie pulled a salmon out of the Iroquois the other day —that weighed —eight pounds, only a pound less than “Baldy’s” pickerel. It was a beauty ana the finest salmon taken out of the Iroquois for many years. B. F. Ferguson, who went to Low Gap, Wash., about two months ago for a rest and a visit with his two sons, George and Dee, has been very sick much of the time and unable to return home.

A number of farmers near Fort Wayne are writing to Senator Beveridge and others requesting that efforts be made toward reducing the tariff on wheat to not exceed over 10 cents a bushel. They say this is enough to protect the farmers of the country, and that It will help all consumers in years of short crops and speculative corners.

The Republican is always pleased to have news sent to it, but the news to he of any value should be sent in promptly. Last evening after the semi-weekly went to press an account of two ball games played at Pleasant Ridge last Sunday was received, too late to be of any value. An announcement of a game for next Sunday between the Ridge and Parr at tie former place was also received. The Republican appreciates such items If sent In tl're, but if not they are worthless. Please bear this In mind in the future.
