THERE is no better way to make a town grow than to make it grow, and the making is in the hands of its own citizens. WHY don't those anxious people down the river petition the weather map for *' few cloud-bursts at Fox Lake? It seems to be their only hope. THE Marengo Republican says that "The McHenry Plaindealer has com­ pleted its first year nnder its present management, with J. Van Slyke, ed­ itor." Talk abont Rip Van Wiakle! Bat its all right, the pen will slip at times, especially daring the Vush at this time of the year. DAVID NATION was granted a di­ vorce from his wife, Carrie Nation, the "joint smasher," last Wednesday. The divorce was granted on the ground of gross neglect of duty. Poor Carrie! She thought she was doing her duty for the Nation, but she evidently forgot one Nation while endeavoring to do good for the othe: ting »a THE hunting vas been unusually good in Northern Wisconsin this season. Be­ sides the large number of deer and -oth­ er game that has been shot, forty-two hunters have met the same fate. The long-range rifle is certainly a success, if the hunters would only get under their game and shoot upwards. It would then be perfectly safe for others to hunt in the same county. JUDGE JOHN C. GARVRR died at his home in Rockford on Tuesday evening, Nov. 26. He was one of the judges of this circuit and was one of the most popular, able and honest jurists in Northern Illinois. John C. Garver was judge of the Winnebago county circuit court and a leading member of the Northern Illinois bar. He held to his place on the bench until three weeks ago. For a year his health had been failing and there was some talk of his resign­ ing from the judgeship some time ago. DURING last year the American peo­ ple paid $800,000,000 for intoxicating liquors and tobacco, and yet those who use the most of these articles are con­ tinually kicking about hard times and oppression. That vast amount of money would pay for 800,000,000 sacks of flour, over two barrels for each man, woman and child in the United States. It would buy a comfortable outfit of clothing for every man and woman in this country. It would pay for 8,000,- 000,000 pounds of good, wholesome meat It would build 1,000,000 habit­ able cottages. It would defray the ex­ pense of furnishing food and clothing for 1,000,000 families during the year. With that amount of money 400,000 good cottages could be built and fur­ nished and enough lelt to support that number of families for one year. Did it eyer occur to yon that the times, are just about as we make them? THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE The President's message was read be­ fore congress on Tuesday of this week and gave the utmoet satisfaction to rep­ resentatives of both Republican and Democratic parties. The message is lengthy, yet nowhere in the document can there be found meaningless or su­ perfluous sentences. President Roose­ velt comes to the point at once on all subjects and discusses them in words that none can fail to understand. The anarchy question is the first upon which he passes his opinion, and the sum and substance is that he denounces anarchy as treason, asking congress to pass stringent laws. The Chinese and em- migration question he handles in a fear­ less and decisive manner. In dealing with the "trusts" his words portray that he has given the conditions careful study, and shoald have a tendency to cause others to do lees barking and more reasoning. Every laboring man ^ " should read the message. They will ; find that they have a friead indeed in Sr ottr executive. SPRING GROVE.

Mrs. Ida Wallace died Saturday night Nov. 33, 1901, at the home of her sister, Mrs. Jessie Richardson, where she has been most tenderly cared for during the last few mopths and every possible com­ fort given. Ida Turner was born Feb. 4, 1866 and always lived at the old Turner homestead until a few years before her marriage on Feb. 14, 1884, to Robert Wallace. After their marriage the next five years were spent in Kansas, where Mrs. Wallace's health failed and though of a seemingly strong constitu­ tion, disease had obtained such a hold that she has steadily failed and for the past year she has been in a yery feeble condition. Ida was of a very ambitions energetic nature and never spared her- self in any manner. She leaves beside herliusband three little children, Jessie, Levi and Janet, two brothers, James Turner, of Hebron, and Ed of this place, two sisters, Mrs. Ren Johonnott, of Antioch and Mrs. Jessie Richardson, her aged mother, Mrs. Janet Turner, and a host of friends. At the obseques many floral tributes testified the love and esteem in which she was held.
