TOWNSHIP CONVENTION FRIDAY ; Republicans Name Local Ticket Excepting Justices of The Peace Thirty Republicans of Turkey Creek township met in mass caucus at the Opera House, Friday afternoon and selected delegates to the county convention and nominated a full township ticket with the exception of Justices of the Peace. There is a marked aversion exhibited by most men when the nomination of this office is mentioned and for this reason the Republican ticket will be left blank for these offices. Floyd Strieby was unanimously chosen as candidate for the township trusteeship. The assessorship was contested by Perrv A. Dull and John Kauffman, with the latter winning the nomination. The nominees for the township advisory board are Manford Morris, Richard Guy, and Arthur H. Blanchard. Constables 0. L. Cory, Samuel Traster and Perry A. Dull. Road Supervisors; Dist.

Holton The county Commissioners on ’ Monday refused to renew the liq- ’ uor license of B. A. ‘Holton, hold- • ing that the remonstrance recently filed was valid and that 85 revocations filed last week did not effect ‘ it. B. A. Hoiton will not carry the matter to the courts but will accept the verdict of the and Syracuse’s only saloon in a : period of eight years will close its ’ doors on June 28th Rafter one year of existence. The Wawasee Inn, > which held the other license allowed • in the township, did’not apply for ! renewal and would Save discontinued their bar even had license again been granted in the township. ' One thing can, be said of the proprietor of Jhe local saloon, he has strictly adhered to the closing hours and has closed his place on Sundays and, holidays. We said last year when the license was granted, Syracuse will not suffer greatly neither will she propffit largely by' the advent of the saloon and we can safely say the same thing now. And we can say it truthfully for this reason: Liquor was sold here before fte saloon ot£ri6d aud it will continue to be sold after the saloon; is closed. Nd one can dispute the ! fact that liquor is an evil that! should be abolished and it is equally indisputable that our present laws do not abolish it. Read The Journal ads. today.

MEMORIAL DAY HTTINGLY KEPT Leesburg Cornet Band Dispenses Martial Music For The Day Memorial Day was fittingly observed in Syracuse last Saturday. A fair-sized crowd attended the program given at the K. of P. Opera House. The weather man was exceedingly good and coerced Old Sol into shining steadily throughout the day. Major Marsh was unable to fill his accustomed seat as chairman and A. W. Stiiebv satisfactorly filled this office in the Major’s absence. Rev. L. C. Deßow, of Ligonier, delivered an inspiring oration that was greatly enjoyed by the veterans and the audience. Pleasing selections were rendered by the High School Choir. Rev. L. E. Eshelman gave the invocation and Rev. C. H. Burgener pronounced the benediction. At the close of the excercises the Leesburg Cornet Band led the march to the cemetery where the children strewed the graves of the deceased veterans with flowers and the ceremonial rites of the G. A. R. Post were given. In the morning, according to their usual custom, the members of the G. A. R. visited the outlying ''cemeteries in the township and decorated the graves of soldiers. The local post has taken this duty upon itself for many years and will continue it as long as they are physically able. ’• The crowd was not as large as usual. The weather was very warm which may account for it. ARRESTED FOR FAST DRIVING BOYS SECURE BOOZE AND RACE THROUGH STREETS Wesley Larson and Oliver Whitmore were taken to jail Saturday night for reckless driving of a horse and buggy through our streets. They evidently had been drinking and as neither were over 18 years lof age, it may go hard with the I person or persons who gave them I the liquor. The boys were released Sunday morning after a promise to be good. There is a couple of dealers in this town who are going to get in bad if they do not quit catering, unlawfully, to the trade of boys. There is a place in Syracuse where boys may play a nickel slot machine and where they can secure ‘‘near beer” to drink. This practice will be either discontinued or the editor, personally, will prosecute the owners. This is a warning and had tetter be heeded. Returns From Minnesota Since the termination of a five weeks’ engagement with Hon. W. G. Calderwood, Prohibition candidate forgovenorof Minnesota, Wm. Gray Loehr has returned to Kosciusko county to push his compaign for the state legislature.
