Bennington, - - Editor A. G. Hinckley, Business Manager WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1906. A STORY WITH A MORAL The following:, where a moral is j clearly nhown, is taken from an ex change: Recently a church congrega tion in a little Kansas town built, a new church. To pay for it they were obliged to call upon the merchants of the community for donations. The merchants resjionded liberally and $.'>oo was raised from this source. The last man asked to subscribe was John Smith, r« jeweler. "I will give you $20 if you will let me add something to the subscription list," he said. The permission was accorded him, and he wrote at the foot of the list: John Smith, jeweler $20 00 Sears, Roebuck & Co . 00 00 Montgomery. Ward & Co 00 00 The church people saw the point when the minister read from the pulpit the list of donors to the building fund, and since the dedication of the church there have been no mail orders sent out from that Kansas town. Evidently the Hadley family is en dowed with the judicial temperament, says the Tacoma News. Cassius C. Hadley has just been elected judge of the Indiana appellate court after serv ing several years as deputy attorney general. On the Indiana supreme court bench is John V. Hadley, now ably serving his second term. In the State of Washington is Judge Hadley, one of the able members of the supreme bench, and in the State of Missouri is Attorney General Hadley, who has been making it mighty interesting for Standard Oil. All these Hadleys are related, all were reared in Indiana and are all republicans. Last week's Times contained a rather bitter attack on this paper because of what it called "a vicious attack and insidious insinuations" against the' character of Mr. Spring and the Domann Drug Co. Of course, the whole item is a fabrication, pure and simple, and entirely unworthy of Mr. Pettijohn, if he wrote the article, which we much doubt. We did not in any way "attack" Mr. Spring, the Domann Drug Co., or any one else. We simply stated what, in our opinion, i the public might expect from the can didates of the Republican party, and did not even mention the name of either Mr. Spring or Mr. Domann. We have nothing against either of these gentlemen and know nothing about either of them personally. We opposed Mr. Spring for treasurer simply because we were favorable to Mr. Kalkwarf and, unlike our friend Pettijohn, we have not yet learned how I to be on both sides of the political fence at one and the same time. The article in the Time, was wholly uncalled for, was not justified by the facts, and is to be deplored. While we had hoped i», get along peaci. bly with the Times we must not be expected to submit to attacks of this or any other nature, and if our friend is really looking for ja little "scrap" he can be accom modated. Some amusing things were witnessep during the recent city campaign. For instance: we saw an elder of a church, a saloonkeeper and a city official all serving together on one of the com niittees. In another case we had a minister of the gospel, an ex-saloon keeper and a business man all on the same election hoard. While all of them were good men, the question arist.,: Does politics really make strange bed fellows, or have the lion and the lamb lain down together? A recent dispatch from San Fran cisco states that- the grand jury has returned five indictments against Mayor F. Schmitz and Abraham Ruef on the charges of extortion. On each charge the bail was fixed at $10,000 and the bond at $50,000. In the light of this fact the bold move of Reuf in attempt ing to seize upon the machinery of the courts a couple of weeks ago becomes even more striking than when origin ally announced. THE VERDICT OF SANTA TO MY AGENTS AND LIEUTENANTS IN ADAMS COUNTY: After a careful inspection of quality and study of prices, I find the best place to buy Strictly Reliable X-mas Gifts is at "The Fair." Those fellows seem to have got the Q on marking Holiday Gifts at prices that will sell them. In other wo-ds, they are sailing Toys, Albums, Games, Toilet Sets, Etc., Etc., at about Calico Profits. You know wood's high and coal's high, and we have all got to figure close, and my advice to all Junior Santas'is, Do just as I am going to do, "Buy at The Fair" and put the difference in fuel. Respectfully, OLD SANTA. — in*—m. -T* ■■■■■■ —i u memmmiwmk———————— — HAVE ONLY 15 DAYS LEFT to buy Holiday Gifts. These will be lively ones at this Store. We * have increased our selling force so as to be able to wait on the additional customers promptly. Below we offer a iist of suggestions of "WHAT TO BUY."

Fancy Cups, Plates, Water Sets, Sauce Dishes, Etc., Etc. The annouueement that Governor Mead will make a thorough investiga tion of the 5,000 notaries public in this State commissioned by him is a move in the right direction. Some people think that all a notary public has to do is to aftix his name and seal to a docu-. ment and his duty is done. It is a pub lic office, with prescribed duties to per form. Some notaries, it is said, con nected with realty firms, have accepted identification over the telephone and signed acknowledgments without ever having seen the parties. Other irregu lar practices have been indulged in. If Adams and Franklin counties are to be associated together in the crea tion, this winter, of a new judicial district to be composed of these two counties, the recent triumphant elec tion of Hon. O. li. Holcomb.as Mayor of Ritzville, will be a long step in the path that leads to the nomination for joint judge of the new district a year from next Summer. Alw:.\s a formid able candidate for any office within the gift of the people el* A(U»ms county, it ' he makes 4 »<»d lt.Ayer at a time like this our democratic friends could not keep the nomination away from him if they tried. During the early pan of election day a prominent churchman came into this office and said: "I believe you follows are going to win out, because I am afraid some of our fellows are going to be too drunk to vote." Hut the re sults showed that they were not. Another proof that Adams county is for. ing to the front i-. videnced by the fact thai the fees collected by the cou lty auditor during tiie month of No ember just past amounted to more tha i five hundred and twenty dollars.
