In our presont state of prosperity we
must not lose sight of those prinoiples
that have made us what we are. Nor
can we over estimate the importance at
this timo of placing in office ardont ad
vocates of our tariff legislation and our
foreign policy to which our country
owes its present advancement.
In our party caucus held in Lindsey
some three years ago, and before we
had reaped the fruits of our Ropubli
can policy, Mr. G. W. Porter, now our
candidate for the nomination for As
sembly, eulogized our tariff system, and
spoke in glowing terms of the benefits
to bo derived from our foreign policy
The results of succeeding years show
clearly Mr. Porter's foresight when ho
depicted our nation' advancement as
a oonsequence of our Republican
measures. It is fortunate that we have
such material In our party. We can
also congratulate ourselves on the fact
that Mr. Porter is determined to carry
on this campaign to a finish. He has
declared openly that be Is In the race
to stay and under no considerations will
ho withdraw from the canvass.

Wednesday.

Notwithstanding the severe cold
weather we have hud the last fow weeks,
tho school building has been very com
fortable. We certainly have a good
system of heating, far excelling that
in our former building.
The McKlnloy momoriul exorcises
were well attended by the town people.
McKlnley's life appeals strongly to
every boy and girl. No president of
lato years has been loved by the child
ren of our nation as was McKinlcy. Tbo
offering for the McKlnloy fund was not
as large as we should liked to have had.
A monument to Wm. MeKInley Is a
monument to American manhood and

own wish.
February might be called a patriotic
month. Altho' it is a short month
many important events occur. Feb. 12

one of our martyred presidents. Fob.
22, is Washington's birthday.
A large audionco greeted Champ
Clark last Friday evening. Tils lecture
was up to the high standard of our

a treat to thoso Intorcsted in political
affairs.
Our school hill has been almost im
passable. The sidewalks have been a
glare of Ice for tho past two weeks.
Several pedestrians on Friday evening
received slight shocks when returning
from the lecture. Coasting is fine. The
children enjoy coasting and also the
children of a larger growth.

A slelghrido given by tho Senior
Class was a thorough success. The
oartv consisted of 11 bout eighteen Sen
iors and Juniors with Miss Dally, Miss
Kunes, Prof. Lenkord and Prof. Mc
Clure as chaperons. Leaving Royn
oldsvllle about 2:00 p. m. wo arrived at
our destination, Punxsutawney, about
6:00 p. m. and partook of a sumptuous
supper at Hotel Pantall, whore we wore
reoelved with great kindness. Several
members of tho pnrty, whose names we
will not mention, wore greatly taken
(?) with Punxsutawney and were very
reluctant about leaving. After some
delay tho merry party started on its
homeward journey, arriving in our
native town about 12 o'clock midnight.
We all had a pleasant time which will
not soon be forgotten. ,
Mrs. Soffel's Offense.
If Mrs. Soffol is guilty of no worse
crime than that of having her sympathy
excited bocause the Biddies were shut
up In iron cagos awaiting death, she is
not to be severely censured,. It is the
nature of women to be sympathetic.
Thore are physiological reasons for it
over which she has no control. She is
made for motherhood, and helplessness
or distress appeals to her with a force
that mon cannot understand. It is that
tendernoss which fits hor for maternity,
and which is a part of her being. Very
frequontly we bear of women taklpg a
morbid interest in some brute in human
form who has committed a crime that
should exolte only execration in the
human breast. Thoy never do it, how
ever, until tho wretch is In the hands
of the law and Is rendered powerless to
further Injure socloty. For that very
reason women are unfit to administer
justice, and would be unsafe even as
criminal lawyers. If, however, Mrs.
Soffel was prompted by a guilty love
for the depraved being for whom Bhe
abandoned everything, she is either In
sane or a moral monstrosity. To for
sake the sacred duties of motherhood
on account of a base passion for a des
perate criminal, places her outside the
pale of womanhood. By accompanying
Ed. Blddle with the ldoa of living with
him, and leaving four or five small
children at home, she was violating a
law of naturo of which evon a wolf or a
hyena would not have been guilty.
