The people of York state may decide that the Point is not high enough for the best health of “Teddy,” and so goto work and “ele- vate” him to the efxalted gubernator- ialchair’in thestatecapitol in Albany. TEE democrats had a very lively meeting last weekin Waukegan. But never mind if they did. the Lake county folks came out abeéd: that’s all we care for. No tears of ours for the under dog in this fight. TEE city authorities got stopped building that pound the other day, because. it was not covered with iron and so Mr. Elvey will put in stench» ions and stalls for cattle. three pens for dogs and a “loft" for hay and other feed. He will also drive up a nail for Marshal Leesch to hang his milking stool on, as the marshal is entitled to all the milk he gets While the cows are in pound. szxs. B. Hmmn‘n, A. E.

NEXT week Thursday there will he a sort of basket picnic orglrand “Sun- day School Rally" of‘ all the schools in Lake County at Lake Bluff. One feature of the day will be a dozen or so three minute speeches from able Sunday school workers on liw topics. One hour will be given to speeches and lots of good things besides. The point we-emphasize is this: this association represents the second most potent force for good in this Lake County; it stands next in line with the churches. It does not make half as much fuss or noise as a poli- tical convention, and yet it does ten times as much good. I have seen a little babbling brook a boy could jump across that made several times as much noise as the St ‘ Lawrence rivgr two miles wide and deep enough for the biggest ships.

They used to have in Europe what the people styled for centuries the “Holy Roman Empire."of which Mr. Bryse, the historian, said it hadonly three serious defects; first. itwasnot an empire: ‘ second, it was not holy. and third it was not Roman. So of this dog tax: it is not a tax. The county and state tax dogs. hut the city of Highland Park does not.
