the ditch. This
rectly concerns every
of Columns
the property owners i
affected. Its importance is sack that
quote the petition in fall : "We
the undersigned land owners of Co
lumbus township hereby agree to at
tend a meeting to be held in Colum
bus Saturday. Jaae 4, 1904. at 2
o'clock p. m. to devise a way for
opening n ditch on the west lne of
section ten and fifteen in township
seventeen north, range one wast, from
what is known as Lost Creek, to the
low ground south, and we also agree
to pay our proportionate share of the
expense of a survey and profile of amid
ditch with estimate of the cost of the
same in order that the. same can be
presented to the board of supervisors
at their next meeting asking for the
considenstioB of said ditch: to carry
the surplus water from Lost Creek."
Under the law it is the duty of the
board of-supervisors, an petition of
one or more persons intersted. to re
quire a survey of the land required to
be drained, to locate the ditch and
make an estimate of the cost ol the
same. The expense of the ditch is
then taxed against all the land bene
fited on n oasis of the lineal feet of
the ditch. The land benefited of
course is not confined to that adjacent
to the ditck. The costs are iHii.awil
and collected the same as are other
taxes. An interesting legal question
may arise out of the construction of
this ditch. If the people on Lower
Lost Creek should object to a diver
sion of the water from its natural bed
and Lost Creek should be construed
to be a "t" water way, of course
the ditch can not be constructed. But
we understand that all the people on
Lost Creek reap nothing bat loss from
its waters and will join in an effort to
put it out of the way.
4 'The personality of nations'
the subject of Rev. Ulmer's sermon
delivered for the members of the G.
A. B. last Sunday morning It was
one of the beet discourses the old
soldiers here ever had the pleasure of
hearing. Following is the substance
of the sermon "The Roman contribu
tion of political science to the world.
the Greek contribution of metaphysi
cal science, and the Hebrew contribu
tion of religions science are evidences
of national peculiarities. Each nation
exhibits personality distinct from
that of every other. God recognizes
the personality of natinat. Ha may
deem it best to let injustice be victor
ions for n trine in order ultimately to
stake justice the more triumphant.
In the Civil War the United States
were divided against themselves.
The nation was in great danger, for
Christ voiced a universal principle
when he said: 'If a kingdom be
divided against itself .that kingdom
cannot stand. ' Ton fought not only
for the negro's, freedom, yon fought
also for the nation's life we honor
you and your dead for the fight you
have fought in behalf of the .negro's
emancipation, in behalf of the liberty
of the individual, in behalf, of the life
of the nation."

A Story With. Twa morals.
A Columbus hardware dealer not
long ago was visited by a farmer who
asked for a price on n certain plow.
Whan tne merchant namedhis price,
the farmer informed him.that he was
too high thatm neighboring farmer
had just bought n plow like it from a
Chicago mail-order house for a dollar
less. He went nway without purchasing
and the dealer had no recourse but
profanity. A few days later this
neighboring farmer came into the
same merchant's store and announced
that he had a mighty fine plow which
he would lire to swap for one of the
merchant's plows. .sTheu this long
suffering merchant uncorked the jugs
of his wrath and finally the truth
came out. The mail-order plow was
made out of something very like to pot
metal, and while it was very orna
mental it had evidently not been built
to plow with. t
There is n aaoral fh this true story
for both'the merchant aad the farmer.
If the consumer, before sending his
order nwar, would get prices from his
home merchants and then take the
mail-order price and add the freight
or express, he would find in most
oases that there is no asviasr to him in
buying his goods in Chicago where
ha does not know what he is buying;
uasil after his money is raid and the
goods are shipped. It is well to

that Messrs. Miller and King of
