A “hebctndin_ous crank” is the 'l'a-. test. The Indianapolis Sun works it off. It applies'it to a fool editor who got it into his head that the Catholic church mnst be broken up and occupied the major part of his time in writing to that end. 3 Wfllk()l'totl’s big huckleberry marsh 18 grinding out its usual bateh of inignity, and in open detiance of God, man, or the devil. Elder Endley, of the In;1(:¥;;;11(1f>ut. must be away at some waring resort, forywhen the cat’s gone the mice will indulge their recreation, you know,—Westville Indicator. ; We have been so completely taken up with our religious duties of late that the marsh was somewhat neglected, and things did run a little loose there for a time, yes. Huron and Pierre, South Dakota towns situated about twenty miles apart, are having a blood and thunder fight over the permanent capital question. Pierre has a temporary bulge on Huron, but judging from the present appearances, Huron is growing in favor and has a fair prospect of securing the permanent capital, Pierre papers think there never was as wicked and inferior town as Huron is, and the Huron papers regard Pierre in about the same light, s S BSome of the higher order of journalists of this section of the vineysrd are dishing up the soup to Dan MeDonald, of the Plymouth Democrat, right hot and lively for what they seem to regard as his ungentlemanly and unwarranted attack upon ex-Editor Siders, late of the Plymouth Republican. Mr. McDonald, like almost everybody else, sometimes goes beyond the meets and bounds of propriety and etiquette. But why he should be scored and ridiculed and blasphemed and | maligned " and traduced, or in other words, have the soup put into him red hot for such little, trifling imperfeetions, i 3 another one of the ten lillions of things that we dun’t just exactly understand. SR SR R " The following very remarkable item we copy from the Nappanee News. The astonishing part about it is that it is the first caso of throat < eutting that we have seen mentioned in a newspaper for a hundred years that wasn't cut from “ear to ear!” The News is an innovator upon time horored customs, and should be put on half rations of beer for five days. Here's the item to substantiate just what we have said, verbatim ¢t litertim et puvetuatim et so forth: At Dlkhart 'last Wednesday, a man by the name of Mangerson employed in the ruilroad shops, aged about 57 years, suicided by entting his throat with a knife made from an old scythe blade. The large kuife was found sticking in his throaut and the man stone dead, when discovered by the family with whom hie boarded.” et re———— The scheme advocated in the ohp‘ pings given below originated with the Milford Mail, W. E. Groves, who has taken the initial step in the matter by sending out his photographs to the editorial fraternity of this section of the world, and one of which the INDEPENDext hereby acknowledges the receipt of. Nothwithstanding the fact that our photographs are in great demand and command almost fabulous prices, we will fall into line with the brethren of the fraternity and exchange, even up, with all who desire to do so: It would be a good idea if editors would exchange photographs. It would cause them to be more comprehensive with the spirit of their contemporaries. Let our editors express themselves on this matter.—Milford Mail. We would feel more delighted to have the plhiotograph of every newspaper man in the 13th congressional district to adorn our sanctum, than any other ornament we can call to mind. The News agrees with the Mail.—Nappanee News. _ We have seen the portrait of quite a pumber of the metropolitan journalists of the country, but like the News, we would much prefer the photographs of the country editors of Northern Indiana.— Warsaw Daily Times. The News expresses the feeling and gentiment of the Mirror on the sunject fully and emphatically.—Bourbon Mirror. We find the following in the Milford Mail, and think it would be a good thing for the fraternity to exchange pictures with each other. It would seem like a family of relatives, and in years to come would call up many recollections of the past. 'Who will be the first to send out his picture, and give the suggestion a start. 9—@Goshen Democrat.

A single point will plow an average of twenty acres in hard ground with the Boy's Delight plow. B. F. RiNxEHART, Ag't. The Walkerton INDEPENDENT objects to having their adjncent famous huckleberry marsh located “in” Walkerton by the Enterprise and other exchanges. All right, Bro. Endley, we accept the | amendment.—Mishawaka Eaterprise. | Now that's generons, Thank you. ‘ ~ There's no use talking the New Al%bnny Tribune, General Packard’s paper, is one of the solidist, if not the goldist, political paper in Indiana. We wonld like to see it have a circulation of five thousand copies in St. Joe county. A good many of our exchanges try to make themselves believe that the big huckleberry marsh is vight in Walkerton, and that the so called Huckleberry Queen is the leading spirit and reigns supreme. Looky here, |the marsh is four miles away from Walkerton, and the Queen twenty-six miles away from Walkerton, nor has she been liere or at 'the mr “h this year. She is a bona i fide resident of Michigan City, and } counted one in the census returns for that town. ; Last Sunday was an extremely hot day Dbut not so hot as some of the days %in June. The marcury in the same thermometer, in the same identiocal : place, in the June heated spell rose to 100 degrees, and last Sunday it rose to 08 only. Now let any man deny the above statement, But any man that says last Sunday wasn’t a hot day we don't care who he is. The arrests that were made last year at the great huckleberry marsh in Marshall and Starke counties had the effect of wonderfully modifying the doiugs there this year. Not one tenth partof the liquors were sold there this year .and consequently not one tenth paik of fighting and wickedness were practiced during this season as heretofore. Sober men are more careful about what they say and do than drunken men are, and but very little drunkenness prevailed there this year. Yes, the authorities did a noble thing last year when they placed the strong hand of the law upon the breakers thereof. A gang of fifteen fellows came down from South Chicago last Friday evening, bringing with them four kegs of beer for the purpose of having a genuine high-lonesome. They assembled on the lawn at the Ilorence Hotel, drank their beverage, sang songs and hymrs, and played musical instruments up to & late fhour in the night. They conducted themselves very gentlemanly, however, considering everything, and returned to their homes Saturday night. They talk ¢f building a club house ut Koontz’s lake. Should they do that our citizens may expect more visits from these gentlemen, and #0 long as they bring their own hop juice, can have no reason to kick.

Editor Endly of the Walkerton Independent is having ahard time in convincing some of his brother newspaper ‘men that the great huckloberry marsh is neither loeated at or in Walkerton. —Nappanee News. Uh-hrh, The INDEPENDENT this week received the photographs of two monster childr_... of near Sturgis, Mich., Slippy sisters, one of whom is eleven years of age and weighs 240 pounds, the other, nine yeare of nge, weight in proportion. We aro going to place these photographs in the frame with our other wonders of the world, the photographs of the editorial fraternity. The United DBrethren friends will have a Sunday school picnic at the Barber church grove Aug. 16th. Four schools will be represented; viz., Walkerton, Tyner, Island and Barber, It is expected that State Assistent Superintendent Bell will be present. Everybody is cordially invited to attend. There is a portion of the sidewalk ordered down by the new ordinance on the northeast side of Avenune F delinquent. The time allowed by the ordinance expired some time ago, and those parties failing to comply may have trouble if they ignore the matter very much Jonger. The citizens living along the southeast side of Avenue F should not be forced to furnish sidewalk eternally for the use of the whole public and the citizens living on the opposite side also. Citizens living on one side of the street are just as much under obligations to do these things for the public good as are those of the othor. A competent lawyer tells us that we were strietly corvrect in expounaing the law bearing upon tramps in our last issue, and thinks that it is the only means by which that army can be supprossed. Every tramp may and should be arrested under the vagrancy law and forced to pay a fine or go to jail or work it out. There are lots of them. that wonld never submt to such punishment more than once and would go to work like honest people, which would reduce their ranks so much that the remaining ones would be so limited in numbers that they would in all likeli-! hood abandon the business. Misery likes company, and when the better class of them was forced off the track the tougher ones would also abandon the practice throngh fear in consequence of limited numbers. 'T'ramping has become so popular that thousands follow it who are moderately good people but too lazy to work. Inforce the law everywhere and down the growing uuisance, THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
