And that tba place for holding elections
nod East rrectaet eMail be at a wiaaew in the sooth side of tba Monroe County Library room, ia said to wash ip in said county. There is some talk that An
drew Hnmpbreys, who- filled the
unexpired term of Governor Wil
liams in Congress, is likely to he
nominated this year, by the Democrats to take the place of Tom
Cobb. The secret of Humphrey's great popularity perhaps lies in the
fact that he was charged with treason to the National Government daring the war of the rebellion, and Cobb was not. Mr. Franklin Landers, of Indianapolis, Democratic candidate for Governor in 1880; says Gray will be nominated for Governor; that tba Old Ticket can be renominated by acclamation, if Uncle Sammy will only consent; that McDonald is leading all other candidates after Tilden and Hendricks ; that the Bland Bill, which he originated when in Congress, is correct in principle and will work no harm to the finances of the country ; that tariff is the only issue before the country and between the parties; that the Democrats ought to meet it frankly, unequivocally and ooaragaonaly with a plank declaring for a "tariff for revenue" catting the old word "only ;" and he
declares that the party is in good trim to win next fall, and believes it will win, in spite of Randall, Dana and their followers. April 11th has been designated a Arbor day throughout the United States. The citizens of each county in this State should make: it a point to spend that day in set-; ting out shade and fruit trees, etc. Those who are contemplating plant ing treea should select those which will be useful as well as ornamental, and by so doing very niaterially increase the value of both farms and houses. Bedford Magnvt : A few weeks ago Judge Wilson received a letter addressed to "The Judge of the Orange Circuit Court, Orleans, Ind. The writer was a woman living in New York that has engaged a lawyer in that -city who anakes a specialty of obtaining divorces "with the utmost secrecy aad despatch," to procure a legal separation from her husband. The letter stated that she had paid the pettifogger about 50 as a fee and that some time afterward he had informed her that the divorce had been granted in the Orange (Ind.) circuit court, bat the court declined to forward the decree until the costs, amounting to about $35. had
been paid. This amount she also.!
handed over, and a few days subsequently received tbe document. Having some suspicion that all was not right, she wrote to inquire into the matter. Judge Wilson replied to the letter, requesting the decree to be forwarded to him. A few days ago he received it through the
mail, and, as may be surmised, it
turned out to be a forged document.
This is where the matter rests at
present.
aeity athwart the obstacles of undue
soeoeptibihty, but spare us tbe mor

On the 7th of March, (a year
ago), the Progress contained a sug
gestion that, h recognition of the liberality of the Legislature in
passing tbe College endowment bill,
Monroe county ought to donate at
950,000 in aid of new build
ings. I ne loilowing is tne article :
The State University is ia pressing
need of new buildings. We suggest that Monroe county appropriate, by a general
tax, whereby all may hare a chance to give, not loss than $60,000, to be used for tbe immediate erection of necessary build
ings. This amount, placed in tne hands of the Tnutena, in addition to the tlS.OOS
of specific appropriation, will enable them to build suitable Laboratory and Library buildings. The Progress is heartily in favor of such a tax, and make the suggesttion believing it will meet with the approval of the great majority of the solid, and tea paying citizens of tbe county. Such a step would do Monroe county
more good than tea times that much mon
ey is worth. The Progress will give its
beany support to any moTsment of citizens or Alumni, in this direction. We believe that the sentiment of the people is
sueh that an organized effort will easily eeeare the desired end. We barely make
the suggestion at present, and will have
This is the style of the Lord's prayer now in voguehuuoog tbe Sen
iors of Indiana University : "Our Paternal Ancestor, hallowed be Thy
Cognomen ; toy sovereignity ap-
approacb ; Thy behests be accom
plished on this mundane ot b as it
is in tbe realms ot Thy omnipresence. Advance to os diurnal ly our
stipend of sustenance, and grant i
absolution as we absolve those who
encroach upon our individuality.
IXf e us cot ia a collective cap
more to say st another time."
On tbe Uth of March, the week
following, under the caption, "Monroe County 'a 'Opportunity," the Progress contained a somewhat
lengthy article arguing the right
and justice of sueh a donation, and from which we extract :
The people of Monroe county, as we
suggested last week, should place In tbe
bands or tbe Xrustees not less than t .Jty
TJiotiKmd Dollars, to be used for the 1m-
mediate erection of buildings. The President stated to the Board last June, that be dreaded to see another dollar spent on
the Library, placed where it is, in its present dangerous quarters. The chemical laboratory is in tbe same building, (and a poor building it is), and an explosion or accident, apt to happen at any time, may lose to the State 13,000 volumes of hooks, I which never oauld be fully replaced. The
Univereitv must nave sater quartan for
the Laboratory, and a lire-proof building
lor un Library; ana wey must ne Asa
immediately.
l tax or one per cent, on tne taxable
property of tbe county would produce over SCO, 000, wbiel, paid in ten or twenty years, would hardly be felt. The State
pledged the University a ball million
dollars. Nothinc but bad management
on the part of tbe authorities, and indif
ference ana apatny or aiumni, citizens ana friends, can prevent the growth of the in
stitution. Shall we be indifferent? The citizens of Bloomington have never failed to respond when called for any good work.
We save snore public epinted citizens than any other town of its size in the
State. If it bad net been for the people of Bloomington tbe Endowment Bill would probably never have become a law."
The suggestions contained in the
article met with sneers and ridicule from some quarters, while many
persona, in speaking of it, said that
S50,000 was just forty thousand
ssoreathan would ever be paid for sueh purpose. The Progress was again ahead of the times, for in km than eight months afterwards Monroe County did donate $50,000 to tbe University, and the money
is now in the bands ot tne Trustees.
glomes Factories.
Several letters of inquiry have been received, during the past week, from parties in various portions of Indiana, who have learned that the MeCalla planing mill and factory ia for sale, and desire a location and an investment. The factory itself, so far as equipments are concerned, is excelled nowhere. Tbe machinery is irst-oiass in all
respects, and the building is within twenty yards of tbe railroad, with a switch leading to it. A neverfailing supply of water is one of its recommendations, and ample grounds for storage. Monroe county is celebrated for its inexhaustible timber supply, including all the beat bard woods, the cost of which is leas here than at any other point in the State. It is only a matter
oi surprise that some company of
capitalists has not, ere this, bought the MeCalla factory. During tbe past season, the planing and lumber dressing machinery has been kept running every day, and there was always work ahead. The coming season will be equally as prosperous, and in that particular alone, the investment will pay toe purchaser largely. But the experience of others has demonstrated that the manufacture of one ar

tare of three or more. Hence it is
believed that large profits would
accrue to any individual or firm
that will take hold of the factory and intelligently and energetically
proceed with the manufacture of
a single -article, ine railroad
company, is inclined to do the fair
thing by the manufacturing shipper,
and as we are on a direct line to
the great markets of the sooth and
of the northwest, no difficulty has
ever been experienced by our man
ufactnrers in disposing of their
wares. Already we nave nve ot
tbe largest and moBt complete fac
tories in the country located
here: Showers Bros. Bedstead
Factory, Dodds, Waldron & Co.'s
Chair Factory, The Ryors Spoke
and Hnb Factory, Bolleubacher's Spoke Factory and the Boston
Hoop Dressing Factory. These in
addition to the MeCalla Furniture Factory and Planing Mill.
The greater the number of factories,
of course, tbe better freight rates they can secure, because their business is so large that the railroad company is justified in giving them special rates. Persons having
friends whom they believe may de
sire a paying investment ot tins
character would be conferring a
favor upon them, doubtless, by
sending a copy of this paper to them, that their attention may be drawn to this opportunity to go into a safe and profitable business in one of the best towns in Southern
ndiana.

ress office one day last week. The
Doctor is one of those men whose

Chicago April 1st, where he will take advantage of the Spring openings to purchase tbe new things in Dress Goods and Trimmings that have not been opened belore. Don't buy till yon see them. New millinery arriving every day. City Taxes. Editor Progress : I have been looking up the law, and it says that the city council may pass an ordinance authorizing the city treasurer to receive city taxes ia two installments, as county taxes are paid. City taxes are high now, and it would be a great accommodation to people who have to struggle hard for a few dolllars, if the city tax could be divided and the law says it can. Will it bs done ? Tax Patir.
Mr. Dunn, while in town last week, said he would give the clay at his quarry to aoy brick maker who would go out there and burn it. Over two million brick will be used in Bloouingten this season.

In every portion of Bloomington on every street and alley, almostground is being broken for new raaidences or addition! to residences. There is not a vacant house in the city people who move hero will be compelled to buy or build. The petition for the double turnpike, on both the Salem and Bedford roads, is being generally signed, and two turnpikes leading south out of town are now among tbe certainties.
