The Syracuse Journal INDEPENDENT, ED.' C. GRAHAM, Editor and Publisher. Published Every Thursday at Syracuse, Indiana. Qne Dollar Per Year. Entered as second-class matter May 4, 1908, at the post office at Syracuse, ; Indiana, under the Act of. Congress oj March 3, 1879. H. H. Rogers, Rockafeller’s right hand man in the Standard Oil Company, died last week and went off into eternity leaving behind him some fifty or sixty millions of dollars that he had spent his life accumulating and had no use for. We hope his sins were small enough to be easily pardoned, but the size of the fortune he had accumulated is strong circumstantial evidence that they were not. Preaching from the words of Jesus that those who believe in him will in time do greater things than He did, President Fisher, of Lombard < Coljege, at Galesburg Illinois, said in his baccalaureate address to the seniors of his college that Christians now were doing greater works than did Christ, and compared the healing of the Master with modern physicians and surgeons, the changing of water into wine with irrigation of the western dry lands, and walking on the water with wireless • telegraphy. Now, if you know of a fooler fool professor, or college president or preacher than President I isher, of Lombard College, at Galesburg, Illinois, we will thank you if you'll hand his name in to this office. The time will come, just as Jesus said it would, when men will do greater things than He did. just as He said they would, but they will not employ physical means or agencies in the doing of them, no more than did’He And the time is.still many, many years in the futtire. By the election of William Lorimer United States senator, although the people at their primary election had given Albert J. Hopkins, of Aurora, a large majority, Illinois further proves the inefficiency of a primary law for the nomination of candidates for the state offices. Such a primary law is a splendid thing, only that it wont work. When delegates are chosen to attend a state convention and represent the people who send, them there, if they lack knowledge of the candidates for places on the ticket of their party they are supposed to take time to study up and learn of them, and so be able to mjake intelligent selections. But to put an Ordinary voter into a booth and hand him a ticket as big as a newspaper containing the names of a hundred or more fellows who want to be nominated for every office from governor down, not a single one of which he Knows the least thing about, would be a very humorous proceeding if it did not involve such serious matters. The state primary is a re- • former’s dream that can never come true. - Additional Local Paragraphs. M. V.- Landis and wife of South Chicago, are here today visiting relatives and friends.

Milton Juday had a very serious runaway last Saturday evening just this side of Milford. Superintendent C. J. Riley’s big red automobile frightened the horse, which turned the buggy over, breaking the thills and single tree, and throwing the occupants of the buggy to the ground, and Mr. Juday was considerably bruised, but not seriously injured. The horse proceeded on its way home. Thompson—Tripp. Wednesday? June 2, occurred the marriage of Rev. H. N. Thompson, pastor of the Grace Lutheran church of this place and Miss Lillian Tripp, for mahy years a successful teacher in our public schools. The ceremony took place at the home of the bride’s mother, at 12:30, Rev. Smith of Goshen, conducting the servicesthat joined the happy couple. The wedding was a strictly private affair, none but relatives and most intimate friends being present. The different societies of which Miss Tripp was a member congregated at her home and gave her “showers” of small presents to show their good will and respect. The Lutheran church. Shakespeare Club Miss Tripp’s Sunday school class and, Methodist church all contributed tokens of love, and many out-of-town friends sent handsome presents as marks of esteem. The bride and groom will be citizens of our town we hope for many years to come and the Journal joins with their many friends in wishing them a happy and prosperous journey through life.

A visit by a reporter of the Journal to Lake Wawasee this, week found many cottagers getting ready for the summer season. The hotels are enjoying a very good business for this time "of year. At the Inn many strangers were/to be seen lounging about itsJOToad verandas or getting readyto go fishing, and a party of twenty-five came down from Chicago and spent Sunday fishing, and many good catches were made. The new proprietors are doing their best to make this hotel a model place for the suirimer resorter. They wish to call the attention of those who come to the lake from surrounding towns, that the hotel is not for Chicago people only, but everyone will be given the bes*t the house affords. They have employed a Chicago orchestra for the summer.

want a fluiet place to stay during the heated term. Have Secured Lecture Course.
