where Watson hud established headquarters. thinking he might meet some old friends from Putnam. He found plenty of affable gentlemen whose business it was to look after and entertain strangers but met none of his old friends. Presently he observed that men were going up a certain stairway in such numbers as to excite his curiosity, and without asking questions he Joined the procession and entered a suite of rooms on the second floor. Here again he was met by the ever-ready men who look after strangers and make them feel at home. After a half-hour pleasantly spent in discussing Lincoln and his achievements, the Indianapolis man remarked that It was about time to take his departure. His entertainer asked him if he would ‘'Take something” before leaving. The reply was ‘‘what have you got.” ‘‘Well,” said the entertainer, “We have cigars, whisky, beer, wine, in fact most anything you want.” The city man nald he did not use tobacco in any form, never liked whisky or beer, but would take a little wine He was conducted to a sideboard where he found a supply of all kinds of liquors sufficient to stock a city bar. After sipping a glass of wine he enquired, “to whom am I indebted for this excellent wine?” “Why, to Mr. Watson, of course.” said his entertainer. “And is this Mr. Watson's room?” qqerried the city man. “Acs sir. and he would be pleased to nu'et you.'' was the response, but the city man could not wait his arrival. This is no campaign lie but practically the story told by the city man who !s known all over Putnam County, and who still has landed interests In this county, and is a man of unimpeachable integrity. Mr. Watson himself may not have drank, but others did, at his expense.

CLINTON FALLS A nice rain would be wel -oiiie. Our school comnieiued last Monda with Miss Leola Moor", teacher. Sunday visitors in these parts were C. W. Ke.t and family at David Boswell’s. Mr. Francis Stites and wife. Miron Stitis and wife at Bart (iwilliams, Charlie Cunningham and family at Mrs. Emilv Bonwell's. Mrs. Eula Staggs visited liome folks last week. Death again entered our midst and claimed one of our best citizens. Mrs. Charles King. She was only sick a short time and it is very hard to givp her up, but we have the consolation of knowing that she was prepared to meet h"r redeemer. She lenv«s a hutiband to two children to mourn her demise. Rev. Collings preached t le funeral Thursday morning and the interment was at the Baptist cemetery. All who knew her will miss h<T and the entire community unite in sympathizing wit i the bereaved relatives. Bob Bee and family visited dames Bee's on Sunday. Ross Sutherland and wife and little da-alitor v : ;< ' \!f Carmichael < n Sunday. Alta Carmichael is staying at Mrs. George Loyd’s t iis week.
Some lime ago the Republican State Central Committee sent out a circular containing "Confidential Sugg» siions to County Chairmen.” One of the paragraphs in this circular was as follows : “Organize temperance people. Organize the preachers. Organize the business men. Organize first voters. Organize the women.” This suggestion of the Republican State Committee to the county chairmen to “organize the preachers" into Republican campaign adjuncts was such an amazing breach <.f the proprieties that it doubtless caused manv of the Republican county chairmen to gasp. But the Republican managers did not realize what a stupendous blunder they had made in offering such an affront to the ministers of the state until Thomas R. Marshall in his Terre Haute speech read the “confidential suggestions'' to a large audience and in behalf of the preachers resented the insult that had been cast upon them. The inability of the Republicans to understand that ministers are ordained to preach the gospel and not to be organized into political clubs or drum corps for the benefit of the Republican party was made plain by Mr. Marshall. On this point (using his exact language) he said:
caim'Fn n:i:s\ ili.i: Mrs. J. L. Witt and daughter, Alice, spent Sunday at Milt Brotlv s’ near Bn inbridue. Cirrie Brown visited her f:itlr»r over Sunday. Wm. McMahan and family of Toledo, Ills., visited his sister, Mrs. Sadie Ballenger, this week. Fred Bridges and family of Brazil visited Virgil Bridges t ns week. Mrs. Sena Pritchard visited at W. L. Halls over Sunday. \V. W. Dawson was not well this week. Roy Slllery is critically ill with congestion of the brain.
“It has always been my Impression that when a minister was consecrated with holy oil that he was enlisted to fight the battles of the Lord, and not the battles of the Republican party, and I will take my chances on there being a great majority of ministers who still believe that the peculiar mission of the minister is to preach the gosp< 1 and not to beat a bass d in in a political procession.’’ But no sooner had Mr. Marshall th given publicity to the impertinent it. struction to "organize the preachers" than the Republican managers saw what a mistake they had made—the mistake of being caught in a contemptible piece of business. Seeing no other way to break the force of Mr. Marshall's revelation, they caught up the “bass drum" phrase, caused garbled reports to be printed in Republican newspapers, and yelled out, in big, black headlines, that “Marshall Attacks Qu- Preachers.”
Speaking of the matter the Indianapolis News said:
HOW TO GET STRONG P. J. Daly, of 12 47 W. Congress street, Chicago tells of a way to become strong. He says: “My mother, who is old and was very feeble Is deriving so much benefit from Electric Bitters, that I feel it’s my duty to tell those who need a tonic and strengthening medicine about it. In my mother’s case a marked gain In fish has resulted. Insomnia has been overeme and she is steadily growing stronger.” Electric Bitters quickly remedy stomach, liver and kidney complaints. Sold under guarantee at The Owl Drug Store. 50c.
“Certain politicians have tried to make It appear that the Democratic candidate has insulted the ministers of the state—that he Is ‘opposed’ to the ministers. Those who know Mr. Marshall will need no enllghtenement on this subject. He is an honest, cleanliving gentleman, a man of the highest character, and. we believe, a member of the Presbyterian churuh. The idea that he would head a crusade against the official representatives of the Christian religion is absurd, dnd is fostered largely by those who are trying to ulse the ministers to further their own schemes. What Mr. Marshall was dealing with at Terre Haute was not the preachers, but the politicians.” After quoting Mr. Marshall's lan guage. the News added this:
A Curious Animal. It will doubtless surprise many who have never even heard of the brute that there still exists on the Island of Java an animal, or, rather, a reptile, which seems to be the missing link between the Ichthyosauri of prehistoric days and the well known saoriuns of modern times. This animal is known to the Javanese as “linguin." It fell to the luck of Baron Alfonso Pereira, consul general of Austria-Hungary, to shoot one of these beasts some years ago Its length was between nine and ten feet, and it looked a cross between a snake and a crocodile. Though the beast was cut and wounded in its encounter with Baron Pereira, it did not bleed.
“That there are ministers—we hope all of them—in Indianapolis, who hold precisely this view, was proved by thu action of the Ministerial Association on Monday, when it struck out of its resolutions all reference to candidates or parties. What Mr. Marshall objected to was to organization of ministers by county chairmen, and that was all he objected to. We think that the ministers will agree with him. \\\ think further that honest people will not be Impressed by the criticism made by those who take certain words from their context and thus seek to give a false impression of what was said.”

The professional Republican preach er—the kind that can he depended on In every campaign to do pollti cal work fur h's party—swallowed the story about the "attack on the preach ers,” and began to expatiate upon It with his usual partisan zeal, and perhaps will continue to do so. All others, however, will take good can not to be misled by such disreputable tactics. The campaign of the Republicans, so far as it has progressed, has been marked by so much false pretense and prevarication—lying is the better word —that It Is explainable only on the theory that the Republican managers and their helpers can find no honest ground to stand oa.
