Tke new west side block has
become a popular office building
with oar attorneys; 'the winter, so far, has been very favorable to wheat; Small-pox was lurking in the city of Louisville all summer, and now is said to be greatly on the increase. James Millen is quite ill, at his residence on North College Avenue, with yellow jaundice. He is 73 years old. The general freight office of tbe h. N. A. A C. Railway has been removed from Chicago to Louisville. D. L. Weir, of Gospor't, has made an assignment for the benefit
of bis: creditors. J. M. Carlton
was appointed Assignee. Riley Stinkard and John Kaaer of Worth ington, have made assignments for the benefit of their creditors. A county seat fight, lietween Worthington and Bloomfield, is one of the near possibilities. These
contests are always bitter.
It is Charley Small who is bookkeeper in the first Kaiional Bank, not "Ollie," .as the compositor made it read last week. Enoch Fuller, J. B. Malky, J.
G. McPheeters, jr., arid Win. P.
Browning, of this place, witnessed the unveiling of the Morton monument at Indianapolis, lost week. John T. Creed, who has been with L. I. Warren, Louisville, has accepted a position as solicitor for the wholesale boot and shoe house of S. A. McClung. Several car-loads of rags have been shipped from this place within the past week. If this traffic in
creases, it will not be long till the
people of Bloomington "won't have a rag to their backs." Jas. F. Morgan, attorney, has
removed from the Bee Hive Block
to the new 'block on the west side of the public square, over McCalla's store, where he will be pleased to meet his friends and clients.
-Wm. P. .Ellis, the first Re
publican ever chosen to the office
in Washington, Daviess co., was
elected last week at a special elec
tion to fill a vacancy caused by the
death of the former Mayor.
The drill of the artesian well
is down 1350 feet. By the terms
of tbe contract, the firm that is dig- j
giog the well guarantee to "strike something" alter they have gone;
1600 feet. , That something is un
derstood to be 12,000. So far, the
entire distance down, except five
feet of surface earth, has been through rock strata.
The street medicine vender who
exhibited the snakes, was confined
to his room at tbe Orchard House by severe illness till Saturday a
week when be came out again and
tried to sell some of his mixture ; but be took sick while talking, and
had to be taken to his room. Be
ing entirely destitute, the trustee of
Bloomington township assisted him to leave the town;
The impression has prevailed
pretty generally that the county tax would be much higher this year than last, but that seems to be a
mistake. The total tat of Benton
township, for instance, was $1.45
last year, while this year it is but
$1.35$ ; Bloomington tp. was $1.45
last year, and. is $1.40 this; in the city it is only a half of a cent higher than last year ; Salt Creek
is $1.46 this year, while last year it was $1.55. So that the great
bugaboo cf taxation will not scare
any ode to any visible extent. In
looking about fdr a reason for the
fact that taxes do not increase, it may be safe to assert that it is ow
ing in a great degree,ttj the increase
of manufactories, dwelling houses,
store rooms; and other taxable in) provements, which, of course re duce the rate.

Gns. C. Davis and wife, of
Mitchell, were visiting Mrs. Dav

company has contracted with the
Ohio Falls Car Works, Jettersonville, for five first class passenger coaches and a baggage, mail and
express car to take the place of the cars recently destroyed by fire.
Worthington Times: The hog
cholera is raging in this section.
We learn that Fred Jessup has lost about forty head, and Wick Ingersol 35 head of fat hogs. Feeding-.the bogs soft, soured corn, is thought to be the cause of the disease. Tbe Courier refers to the fact that McKinney was permitted to remain in office after his defalcation was known. - The county commissioners, Messrs. Baker, Handy and Burton, anxious to do nothing
illegal, acted under the advice of
their attorneys, and were advised that Mekinney was in the hands of his bondsmen and roust be surrendered by them before any action could bo taken; The bondsmen, it is reasonable to presume, also acted nnder legal advice in permitting
McKinney to remain, as several of their own number are attorneys of
ability. Greonraslltf Banner: Thomas Y. Jtadcr will go to ftnrport to look after the farm, but bis faitflj will continue to reside hern.
The wife of Judsre Kckles fell down a

Of one thing Mr, Congress
man Matson may feel assured : He will have to face a square Republi
can candidate in his next race for Congress, should he receive the
nomination. There is plenty of
good material in the district, and it will not be many months till candidates will come forward in each
county Dr. C. D. McLahlan of
the southern portion of Monroe co. has been prominently mentioned in this connection,' arid the Progress cannot think of a more suitable or acceptable gentleman for the' race.
Dr. M. is an ardent Republican, an
untiring worker, a gentleman well acquainted throughout the district, and by education and training is
well calculated to make such a canvass and afterwards to fill with honor and dignity a seat in the lower House. We trust that the
Doctor will become a candidate, be
lieving that bis chances are good,
and his election, if nominated, certain.
Many of our readers, who
were well acquainted with Samuel
H. Dunn, at one time a resident of
Stinesville, this county, but more
recently of Spencerj will read with regret the following notice, taken from the Spencer Journal : Died at three o'clock Thursday morning S. H, Dunn of pneumon
ia. Mr. Dunn was a young attor
ney of great promise and his many
virtues nre nuuwn to au our citizens; The bereaved friends have the Sympathy of the community in this sad affliction. The deceased leaves a wife and five small children. Bedford Magnet:: Sunday a man named Tddd, an ' his wife with a child about one year old, rode from Polk township, Monroe
county, to Bedford, a distance of
twenty miles, to have Dr. S. A. Raridcu remove a large copper sus
pender ring from the child's throat,
which had lodged there teii days
before. The Doctor made repeat
ed but unsuccessful attempts to get
it out with instruments. Monday
morning he gave the child a good
dose ot ipecac, auti tbe ring was
dislodged and thrown tip; but the throat was so poisoned and inflam

Gov. Dunning, it is stated, is now residing with a daughter, (Mrs McDonald) in Attica, Ind. Pneumonia is prevalent and very fatal in all the surrounding counties. Bob.

They will have a first-class supper and good musicThe Dearman farm, two miles east of town, was sold by the administrator, John Huntington, to Wm. Mcfford. There are 118 acres, and the farm brought $3,030. The entertainments given by
the ladies of the Christian Church always prove to be financial successes The supper recently held
in the old New York Store room netted them $55.00. Miff. Mathers, one of the jolly passenger conductors on the O. & M. railroad, owns a fine farm in the Clear Creek neighborhood. The farm is rented by Ed. Martin, and one night recently the house was fired by an incendiary, and entirely destroyed, with its contents. Loss about $800. Preparations are already being made by the committee of the Christian Church to construct and fur
nish their contemplated house of
worship, on cast 5th street. A contract has been closed with Snicad & Co. of Toledo, O., for a heating and ventilating furnace, at a cost of 150. This is 100 less than the customary price, but it was sold to this church at a reduced rale to introduce the furnace in this section. Dr. Sutton, a blonde "eye doctor" Irocl Indianapolis, has been having i paying practice in this county during the past four months, and has also been paying special and particular attention to several youug women, one in Bleomington and another in Clear Creek tp. A reporter of the Indianapolis Journal was sent to tbe number in Indianapolis designated by the Doctor as his office, but no office was found. The reporter, however, did find Sutton's wife, who was working over the washtub for three litele children. She said she had .ot heard from Sutton for some time. Sutton was stopping at the National Hotel in this place. He is not stopping there now. Aboer fiaugh, residing on a

Forty loads of hooppoles were received at the factory, on Saturday. These loads (hauled on sleds) average from two to three dollars each, thus distributing a large amount of money in the county each month. The general impression among politicians is, that General Dudley would be nominated for Governor, if the Republican State Convention were to be held now ; and that at present the chances of Wra. T. Sherman are best for the Republican nomination for the Presidency. . Most of the losers by the recent Ore iu Vincennes, were in a very destitute condition, and were kindly cared for by the citizens.

For tbe information of our readers at a distance the Progress will state that snow fell in this locality about a week before Christmas, and has covered the groiind ever since. Sleighing is better now than at any tiiu'e since the Snow fell. The cold was intense all day Sunday, and thermometers registered ten degrees below zero iu the night; Frank R.

In its extreme anxiety to manufacture political capital for next Fall, the Courier, in a long article on the McKinney defalcation, misrepresents the facts with wonderful boldness and Unblushing cheek. Speaking of the acceptance by the county commissioners of McKiuney's bond, that paper says : At the tiritb the first bond was taken, the Commissioners were Handy, Peterson and Huntington. Mr. Huntington had only been in office two or three days and, having no experience, bad but little to
say. He supposed that of course the Auditor and bis associate Commissioners
knew their duty, and in the matter of
preparing and accepting the bond he could do nothing bnt acquiesce in the action that was taken. As all of our reader? may not be conversant with the fact, we will state that Mr. Huntington is a Democrat, which accounts for this
injudicious, defense. Now the fact
is that Mr. Huntington had been a commissioner almost a year when this bond was accepted,and being an intelligent man, does not like to be accused of ignorance of his duties with hia experience. On Oct. 14th, 1878, Mr. Huntington was appointed to fill oUt the tern of Geo Eiler who died in office, and Mr. Huntington's regular term begun Deo. 3d, 1679. McKinney's bond was given on Sept. 8th, 1879 eleven months after Huutington had taken a seat on the Board
After executing the bond, it was not placed on file, but McKinney pocketed it aud carried it for two years. He also pocketed his second bond and carried that for two years ; and neither of the bonds were' recorded or delivered until after McKinney had confessed bis defalcation. We think this is another of tbe Courier's mistakes, but as the Auditor is the legal custodian of these papers, and K. A. Fulk became Auditor in less than two months after the bond was given, We will let the Democratic brethren settle that question among themselves; McKinney's bond was given Sept. 8th, '79, and Fulk became Auditor Nov. 4th;
