A Light Vote But Almost Unanimously Favorable. Considering the importance that should attach to the issuance of munic- ipal bonds, the vote last Tuesday ‘was exceedingly light—in fact, so much light that there is ample room for a serious sermon to the good gen- tlemen who pay. the taxes. As pre- almost unanimously favorable, but at the same time it is very evident that a majority ot citizens did not give the subject a thought. The bonds- will pe and find a ready market ata go od figure. .This arrangement will ledvé. the village in good financial circumstances, and if the public affairs of Grand Rapids are handled in the future as.they have been during the | past three years, this municipality will shortiy find itself out. of debt. Fable With A Moral The foilbwing was ,handed_ the Herald-Review with the request that it be published: This was the fable related by Ibra- him Kaled Ejffendi: ‘‘There was once, oh, believers in the prophet, a thief who “swiped” a bag of coined specie from the public treasury, and hied himself to the forest that he might hide it safely away. But on the highway/he “met up” with Ali Ben Mo ck, a-farmer, who being acquainted with the bag carrier, was curious to know what the bag con- tained, and closely questioned him thereabout. When ‘ne found that it | was coin of the realm, this Moss-back requested the swiper to .‘divvy?’ with. him. But the purloiner ‘wouldn’t have it,’ and remarking that ‘he was'too virtuous to give up bribes’ continued on. bis way to thé wouds on tke dead run. However, the Krislar Aga overtook him, took away the bag of treasure, replaced it in the treasury, and reported the matter to the Cadi, and other officers of the Jaw... The common rack of the people, who don’t*know the beauties of the law a little bit, demanded that the thief be sent to prison, but the council of the Cadi said, “Nay, nay Paulive! Verily, there is-no -law to punish »the thief, for the money. is now in the treasury whete it belongs, and no crime*can be proven.” But the thief who had a great bead, went down into the bazaar of the merch-. ants, aud privately whispered unto them who bought and sold therein; ‘verily a great wrong. has been done. to legitimate business, and unto ye who do it. Had I got away with the boodle it was my intent to, blow it among ye, apd liven. up business a whole dot.’ Whereon they of busi ness rose up in wrath, and demanded of the Cadi that he make an example of somebody to the end that futune interferers with the legitimate course) attorney will be ‘no ‘longer required novel specialties are introduced, mak- mg the.show continuous froin start to f [met Last Season this con this year and-Attorney Price was thereupon . granted a release from far- ‘| ther official service for the present. of trade be made afraid to work their henious. ‘schemes. And the Cadi like- wise rosé in’ wrath, remarking: ‘ By the beard of the Prophet, Dll teach ‘this Moss- back -to let little games dicted herein last week, the vote was | alone after this., Which he did by having Ali Ben straightway appre- hended. After which said Moss-back interferred no further forever.” Which fable teaches, beloved hear- ers, that the net of the law is of such wonderful mesh that it will catch the little fish, and let the big ones escape —when it ie knowingly handled. A Future President. The Kansas City Star says that during the lest term a Centraha schoolboy,” ‘Lewin Tomimson, aged sixteen years, was never tardy and never missed a day. His home is seven miles from the schoolhouse, anu coming and going -he traveled four- teen miles each day, which during the school term makes 2,300 miles trav- eled.. During the winter he arose at 3:30 every morning, fed the stock and performed the chores; and then started for school. He made a grade of 100 in deportment, whych means perfect, and a grade of g8 in application. Some day that same youngster will be president of a big railroad with .a spe- cial train of cars to ride on, and then the people who knew him asa boy will grumble as he dashes by and wonder why they, too, were not born lucky. ‘ ONE SERMON °. BY the “Chuckle Head.” NEWSPAPER MEN. A newspaper man born of woman is of few days and generally full of poor booze. He goeth forth in the morning an piketh drinks untilsome- bald-beaded stiff cutteth bis ear off and pineth it uponhiis nose. Thé most disastrous accident is as naught to. him and yet the prattle of a child moveth every fibre in his body. He sayeth things that maketh thee mad yet thou lendest him five when he cometh around. He liest about thee. when he brageth and does not tell half the truth when he sayeth ‘mean, things. Unconsciously the bright folks overlook his multitude of im- perfections and magnify his few. al- > most impreceptible virtues. “Thou thinkest many .a. time” ‘that ‘thou batest him, yet he «sayeth. the things thou thinkest, and for’the moment thou lovest him. Ss ¥ Many a mistake doth he make and ‘ many a confidence abuse, but lieis.at this moment the"most potent factor in American political and ‘social economy, Some gray dawn in- dim and distant future fame's pin- aclé.he will adorn, and -thou wilt be pinned to the door of the little bare beeause thou hast not appreciated | him.
