AN EDITOR'S APPEAL -T
bi
To Brother Publishers In Behalf Of If
The Lost Child of Dr. Byers s
of Seeleyville, Ind. . S
If the editor of every paper in the
central west will republish these lines
there is no question but hiat De. S. 04
Ti. Byers of Seeleyville, Iud., will ru
cover his little son who was stolen C
from his home one year ago last May. a
Dr., Byers has speit his entire re
sources in search for his child and N
unless the big hoarted members of e:
the press come to his assistance his t
son will grow up an outlaw and an 8i
o0tcast among the.lQwest .people :of w
the, earth. It is a cause that should a
appealt to 'everyone, and no. father I
reading'these lines can do so with6ut h"
a quickening of the heart and a sym
pathetic, throb.. It. is,- believed that n
if .this article is re-printed .in. the b
newspapers it will form an endless "
chain that will uncover the lost boy's t
concealment and return him to his
distracted parents. In doing this
the profession of journalism will be C
ulfilling one of its highest destinies.
Publishers whose circulations touch ,
he.Wabash, Ohio and Mississippi
valleys are especially requested to
reproiluce this story of the lost child ti
~as Dr. Byers believes his boy is now S
on some houseboat waiting to take
the road in the spring'? There is a h1
- reward of $500, awaiting any infor
mation that will lead to the -boy 's re
'covery. No questions will be asked E
and if the abductor himself would do- ci
liver tihe boy to his parents he would t
not be molested. Tile bereaved par- a
e,nts are heart broken with grief and tv
want only their child. If each jour- sj
'nal wvill reprint these lines, they will c
4'trai'el to 'every exchange table in the ti
United States and bring back to a
awretehed' home a'ehild who is now no A
doubt suffering wvith cold, unfed and. i
wretched to a degree.. Think of whate
your own - feelings . would be under
*similar eirenmstances! This appeal
is indicted soriginally by a publisher g,
who saw Dr. Blyers 9nly once, has no t
personal interest in his quest other Ii
than the bond of sympathy that mak,es y;
tihe world akin, and is inspired from
the belief that the ldst boy ,can only m
be found through tile united efforts (a
of t9e country press'of which he is r
proul to be a member. His recovery tl
will he a triumph ill advertising and y
no editor whose heart is placed' right
will refuse this appeal.. Remember, ai
i'f may be youti child next! 1
Tile following is a description of
the lost boy:

The News and Observer has this to

mator Tillman:
"The world respects an honest. par
san, even if he is frank to bluntness.
anator Tillman is respected more
ian every democrat in America who
is 'genu-fiected' in Washington to
it White House favor.''
We are constrained to agree with
ditor Daniels in the above. It is
ernally true that the world has lit
a- use for the mealy-mouthed favor
eker. It is equally true that the
orld still holds at a high premium
neerity andl honesty, even if it be
othed in a garb, uneouth anid des
tute of polish and gloss.
Senuator Tillman has been abused.
hIl-manner of evil and harsh' things
ive b)een showered upon him, which
mneerned him little. No d.oubt he
akes blunders. Who does not?
There is however, an unassumed
-ankness and a candid honesty about
ie senior Senator from South Cai-o
a that. carries wvith it force and con
cetion.
Senator Tillman 's recent stand on

''You say,'' I remarked to the old
uegro0 who drove,the hack, ''that you
wore lGeneral Washington's body-ser
vant?''
'"Dat's so! Dat's jes so, mossa. I
done waited on Washington sence lie
was so high-no bigger 'n a small
chile.''
"You know the story .then about
the cherry tree and the hatchet?''
''Know it? - Why, I was dar on the
spot. I seen Mossa George climbe do
tree atter de cherries, and I seen him
fling the hatchet at the boys who was
a stonin' him. I done chase dem boys
oft de place meself.''
"Do you remember his appearance
a,t a inan? What he looked like?"
"Yes, indeedy. He was a kinder
short, chunky man; sorter fat and.
hearty-lookin'. Ile had chin whiskers
and mustache and spectacles. Mos'
generally he wore a high hat; but I'se
seed him in a fur cap wid car-warm
ers!" -
"You were not. with him, of cdurse,
when lie crossed the Deleware river?''
''Wid him? Yes, sir; I was right
dar. I was not more'n two feet off'n '
him i's lie druv across do bridge in
his huggy! Dat's. a fac'. I walked
'longside de off hind wheel of dat
buggy all de way." '
'Y6u saw him whenl le fought the t
British at Trenton?''
"Sho's you're born I did! I held i
Mossa Gawgc's coat'an' hat while lie
fought the British at dat worry place. t
Mossa Gawge clinched him and don i
dey rassled and. rassled, and at first
he freiv Gawge, and den Mossa Gawge c
flung ,him, and set on him ana done t
hammered him till lie cried 'nuff! I
Mossa Qawge won dat fight. I seed -

I 'was the only pusson dar 'coptin'

Gawge's revolver and han'ed it to
hini, and picked up do apple an' et

body can't tell dis yer ole niggah
nuffin' 'bout dat circumstance.''
''You know all of the general 's re
lations, too, I suppose? Martin Luth..
er, and Peter the Hermit, and the
rest?"
''Knowed urn all. Many and many's'
do time I done waited on do tale
when Mossa Gawge had urn to dinner.

"I've frequently seen pictures of
Washington in which lie is represent

he really ride aw hit horse, or don 't
you recall the' color of his horse??'

Just then we reached the station,
and I dlismnounited fronm theihack andj
