PRICE $1.00 A YEAR, PRETY JUNE In Congressional Matters Even Though the Hildebarnt Deli- gates Were Seated, iMiss Fannie Grace Townsley and j Rav. Wm. Wallace Iliffe Un- J ited in Marriage. | It is with regret that,, the delegates to the national cod vention did not fifenotice of contest before June 1, as required-under the call for the. con- mention, By this .the national com­ mittee did not recognize a contest sod the Hildebrant delegates F .M , Couden and Geo, W j . McMurehy were seated. The Scraggy delegates wereH.’0, Louden and J, R. Hicks, The case was decided on a technically and not on its merits, A case very similar to the Sixth District was de­ cided on the Wisconsin contest where­ in the so called “ rumpers” were seat­ ed. -There is little doubt but that the Scraggy delegates would have been seated had papers been filed in time. Should the. case have been heard before the national committee and decided in favor of the •Hilde­ brant delegates, it would have had no, hearing whatever on the con­ troversy between Judge Scraggy and Congressman Hildebrant, the board at elections having already declared the , former the regular nominee. It is probable that Mr. .Hildebrant will appeal to the new election board but .we are told this can’t he done.. Mr. Hildebrant recognized the present board as arbitrator when he filed his affidavits and sent his legal represent­ ative before them to plead his cause. CROP REPORT. ’ Mr, J..J.

He was about the stable in the forenoon and Upon entering the stall was kicked •slig htly by -one of his horses hot thought nothing of it. During the afternoon he entered the stall again, this time to receive more serious treatment, He was kicked Borne half dozen timet about the legs and hips and badly was used. He did not get down, holding to the side of the stall. Had he got­ ten down it is probable ha would have been fatefully injured.

On the 9th 'day-of ‘J&ne, 1904, Raymond Fitzpatrick, oldest son of. Mr. and Mrs. Wm'Fitzpatrick, of near New Jasper, graduated from the Cedarville college. In this event there is nothing unusual, but the following will show the will and de­ termination be had to secure- au edu­ cation: ■ In September 1898 he started to Cedarville college, taking a six-year course, and at that time his parents lived about six miles out of .Ceiar- ville, on the Cedarville and James­ town pike, be driving the|entire dis­ tance every day. Then in the spring 1901 the family moved to a farm near New Jasper, making the distance about seven miles from Cedarville; he also driving every day, nevor missing a single day the whole six years, stopping neither'for cold or hot, rain or shine, often starting in the morning before it was light when the thermometer was down to or be­ low zero. And ns providence smiled on him be was never sick a day. The last year he also taught in the college. The first term of the year he taught general history, and the last two terms he taught Latin, He also joined the foot ball team and j played foot ball .in the Jails of 1902 and 1903, Thus you see lie has* not been idle, t A careful estimate of a friend shows that altogether during the six years he has driven 15,210 miles'?• Who cau beat, this?—Gazette, BIRTHSAND DEATHS.
