The Holiday Trade is over, but the demand for John P. Smith's goods is as great as ever. The stock kept by John is the choicest we have seen exhibited' for many a day, and ha don't seem to care much for getting good prices he is only desirous of effecting sales. Now, the people are finding this out, and when a stranger comes to Bloomington, he is very apt to inquire for Johoit Siukli'a store room (after reading the Progress) so that he may get a Wateh that will keep tim. .. If YOU go to all the stores in town, and ask for gutter, Eggs, or some such article of produee, and the storckeepera say they haven't got it, then call on E. T. Taylor, and you will W very apt to get the artiele you are in search of. He buys a great quantity of produce, and keeps it for his customers.

X,AWTKRa, Doctors, busing and literary men generally, ought to keep files of the newspapers they take. If you desire to reft r to a- legal advertisement, the market reports, or anything of that character, the Fiie holds your newspapers in convenient order. 50c. paya for a Newspaper File. i'OSK Smith has the finest stow room in Indiana, as well as the longest stock t "Watches and Jewelry. He '.rill sell a genuine American watch, in coin silver case.for $15, and be sells, other "mak:s" of watches for $5 and upward. Tobe has also added new machinery to that with which his work nor was already supplied, -which enables him to do all kinds of watch, repairing for about half the prices that othisrs charge, and in a much hotter manner. 13.e don't patch up your watch so that it will run for a few dayjj hut h supplies new works, instead of the v'd, that when it leaves his hands, your time-keeper is bs goal as new. If you .'P upon him, he will give you his price :ist. Dc22tf

"The G 3KMAJJ Student," is the name of a new patent Coal Oil Lamp, just received by Shoemaker & Co. Tho light is very strong, and yet the mi'dest we have seen. The Lamp itself is highly ornamental, and for tht study, sitting room, or for the various ways 111 which persons may cesire to use it, is unsurpassed, hot as to beauty and utility. Go and ex iminc it. Sudden Death. David C. Battcrton, an employe of Allen & Co., died suddenly, on Saturday night,

of heart d sease. Mr. B. retired in

usual beahh, and was attacked with the symptoms peculiar to Heart Disease at or about 9 o'clock, and expired ir a few minutes after his condition was observed. Ho leaves a wife and one child. m 1 The Railroad Tax is attracting no small degree of attention in the county just now, but

those nei.t, convenient and cheap Newspaper Files, are selling rapidly notwithstanding. They are sold at the PostoffLe and the Progress office, at 50 cents each.

To remedy this, vote for the Ilail1 oad Ap proprialiom Chips and Splinters. Well, the Slimmer is past, ihe Winter is half gone, and Spring will soon be here; but long before the drowsy hum of the bees is heard ; long before the beautiful meadows of our beloved county are carpeted with tha deep green of suoeulont blue grass, or the blossoms of the fragrant clover toy with the gentle south winds, candidates for county offices will feel the public pulse with 1 ope of favor. We now leave kc ntimeut, snd come to the "centi- inicant." While there is a manifest auxiety upon the part of candidates, to secure nominations, there is also a natural curiosty felt by the voters to know who desire their ballots ; a: id, of course, the county papers ai-e closely watched, to leara who these gentlemen are. Announcements will be made, through the Progress, for f 3:00 in advance we say advance, because experience teaches that after the nomiiaations aie made, candidates are not so eager to meet their bills whether

they are nominated or not, it ijs all

the same. We hear the names of

many good men suggested tor the

ve.rious positions on the Republi

can ticket, but our innate modesty

will not permit us to make their names public, unless aosoEipanisd by the customary fee Burnum, Bonner and Greeley 'rere made famous by printer's ink their's

(svening, to ascertain the feelings of

those present, as to the propriety of

voting an appropriation to aid in the construction of the . Cincinnati & St. Louis Air- Line Railroad, which resulted in a unanimous vote in favor of the appropriation. ' Our workingmen are wide awake to their interests, and are taking hold of the matter in earnest. A permanent organization was effected, so that systematic work may be done by them. The following named officers were elected : President, John Waldron; Treasurer, Ezra Pering; Secretary, W. B. Seward. Executive Committee consists of R. A. Fulk, W. B. Seward, C. F. Dodde, John S. Greeves, W. W. Rhody and James Drysdale. The Executive Committee have decided to hold public meetings, in

a number oi the townships in our

county, so the law may be fully explained, and that some of the many advantages resulting from the construction of the proposed road, may be pointed out.

been made, and many more may bo expected : Indian Creeh,
