Sheriff of Monroe county subject to tbe

decision of the Republican Nominating

Convention, ufcUKU- a. ainAia. 99" Mr. Editor: Please announce my name as a candidate for Sheriff of Monroe county, subject to the decision of tbe Republican Nominating Convention. HARVEY BAKER. knWm. Norman of Perry township, for

The treasury department has is

sued the following circular in re

gard to claims for bounty and back

pay:

Increase in the number of claims

for back par and bounty, and the

consequent delay in their settlement baa produced great pressure to have such claims made "special."

A compliance with the numerous requests to have claims settled out of the order of their reception would work great injustice to a large and worthy class of claimants who have no influence themselves and no influential friends to solicit

favors in their behalf. It is believ

ed a proper regard for tbe rights of all parties requires that claims of

this character mentioned be examined and disposed of in the order of their filling in this office, the only exception being when the par

ty interested is in indigent circum

stances, and actually suffering for

pecuniary aid, or when some other

equally good and sufficient reason shall exist for an exception. The

facte justifying exception must be certified upon the personal knowledge of a responsible party, or established by proof; and it is ordered accordingly.

Mention was made" recently

that President McKeeo, of the

Vandaha. was urging the people

to improve their roads by which

they reach railway stations, so that,

during the season when the weather is inclement farmers can still

bring in their produce and thus in

crease traffic at a time when it is

likely to 1 dull. This is especially

so in regard to Western line. In speaking nf this item 'the Railway

and many other States the country

roads are, for two or three months in tbe fall and as long in the spring, practically impassable for loads, and so, at a time when railways can most conveniently handle the business, thry are unable to get it, and all comes with a rush later.

The Vandiilia set the example of

offering to haul gravel at a small cost to points easy of access, if the farmers would take it and place it where needed. By this means the company helps itself, aids the country from which it receives much of its revenue, and at the same time creates a kind feeling toward it upon the part of the community. It could well afford to inaugurate a policy of assisting the farmers to make good roads. Such kindly action would be appreciated by town as well, and it would bear fruit that should richly pay for all the trouble and expense involved.

Editor Progress : Tbe county of Boons,

Indiana, was settled at a later date than Monroe or the southern counties of Indiana. As tbe natire savage tribe receded westward, emigration poured in from tbe south aad east gradually extending north sad west, establishing order aad civilization. Tbe Pioneers of this, Boone county, certainly labored under great difficulty in subduing tbe forests and especially in reclaiming tbeir land from the surplus water lying upon the surface, ns most of the county is nearly a level plain. The well set growing timber at the time rendeted it almost impossible to drain the water to its inclined outlet. Hence the proprietors were aoceMiUtod to select the most

elevated spots to rear tbeir cabins, and by much patience and hard labor in removing the timber from tbe most elevated point, upon which they raised their first crops. And alter girdling their timber endured many inconvenience until

the timber conldlie removed and the roots

decayed, before they could make ditching a snceeta. Although the plan has long since been satisfactorily demonstrated aa

entirely profitable, it is at this time more

wan ever practiced as tbe regular order of business for the winter and earjy spring, when the ground is soft and when the water will glide slowly ia the bottom of the ditch enabling the ditcher to determine tbe necessary declivity or slope. When tbe place for the ditch is located, the tile scattertd along the line of operation, the necessary toots placed in position at the designed outlet, the ditcher puts on His rubber boots and wades in, cutting the ditob from I to 3 feet in deoth and Disc

ing tbe tile in position some 8 r.ids per j m. . T

msj. u uunu uiicoe am cu as narrow as is convenient, rounded and leveled by the use of a tool for tbe purpose, in which tbe tile i made to St and lie steady. In some localities here, farmers cannot find a convenient outlet for their ditches and

are under the necessity of cutting large open drains in soma case for miles in length from 8 to 10 feet wide and from to S leet ia depth. left roundimr. iu the

bottom thus forming an outlet tor all the

small Mtna aitebes. By such means the surplus water on all the contiguous farms is removed to this large drain, ranking a considerable and durable stream affording

abundant water for stock most of the year. When these facilities are construc

ted and in operation it relieves the conntry from mueh of its stagnant water and removes the cause of much malarial poison which once much afflicted this county. But after all this labor and patient endurance tbe citizens are enjoying general health and tbe formers are on she highway to health and independence. Since tile is now being manufactured in our county, we hope that tbe farmers in

all the low and flat lands will take tbe

bint and follow tbe example of the farmers of Boone county in this meritorious and profitable work.

Tbi county is all tillable except the

breaks en the creeks, and it m said tost

every quarter of a section in tba county is inhabited and more or less cultivated This accounts for tbe 6500 voles cast lier. at the last general election. The west

eiJe of to county is a liltl ri"hg r, 1

consequently a little dryer than tbe eastern portion. Tborntown is situated in the west side and Lebanon, tbe county seat near the centre, both of which are growing places, and are stimulated by the ad

vantages derived from tbe Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago A St. Louis railroad. The county seat is handsomely laid out in squares and has somajrood buildings and a lively trade. A fine court home in the centre of the place stands directly on the principal meridian line, so that the east side of town is in rauge no one east and the west side in range No. one west, and stands about 66 miles north and 4 miles west of Bloomington. This is a farming county, controled by a generous, hospitable and industrious people. A great variety of soil prevails in this county. Perhaps not a field of good size can be found but shows a difference of soil, from the rich black loam to the pale, stiff yellow clay. Now the black variety needs no flattery, but the

thin clay spots have to be tickled with

manure to make tnem equally productive. Tbe land is well adapted to the growing of wheat, olover and grasses f but not so congenial to the growth of corn as is the soil and climate farther south. We hope that tbe farmers of Boone may, before it

is too late, take the precaution that should have been taken by the farmers of Monroe long ago; that is, of dethroning "King Corn' and crowning "Oram King" of Indiana. Had that change been made years ago in Monroe we would now be relieved ef the disgusting and' disagreeable necessity of looking upon the once beautiful and youthful face of mother earth, but now, at her mutilated, torn, gullied and disfigured surface, as seen on many farms in our county. Ant would also have

shown some regard for tba intereit of tba coming generation. Davis Btbxs.

If congressmen would tackle the sandbars in the Mississippi and Ohio rivers with half the vigor they do the bars in Washington, navigation on the Western waters would be very much improved.

' The other day there was seen in London, for the first time, the Blue Ribbon, the emblem of the tetotaler, worn aide by side in token of the wearer's adherence to the Catholic religion. Cardinal Manning has sanctioned the Blue Ribbon Army by accepting a position in its ranks by the side of the Rev. Newman Hall. In doing so he writes to give his adhesion, because "he considers every good cause tending to draw the human soul from light to darkness as the work of no particular creed, but of God himself." Columbus Republican: It is not our fight, but it caunot be denied that the course of Col. Matson in regard to the congressional nomination is most contemptible. It is almost incredible that a man of his standing, after giving the pledges that he did, should squarely repudiate them. If he should now sueced in getting the nomination, instead of being an honor it would be a dishonor. "Yes," said the doctor, "you must prepare yourself for the worst. You bad better make your will at once." "Make my will ?" gasped the sick lawyer. "Yes," replied the doctor gently ; "It would be well, I think." "No," said the legal man, shaking his head ; "I will never make a will. My family need what little property I have got." Lang and Lykins, rival tobacco dealers at Peterville, Ky., agreed to settle their dispute in a duel with clubs. The weapons were four feet long and two inches thick. The fight lasted twenty minutes. The left arm of each man was broken in warding off blows, and their heads and shoulders . were frightfully bruised. Lang won by a stroke that rendered Lykins insensible.

A quality of California redwood is its ready absorption of water when heated, which for a time makes it almost fire-proof. The quickness with which fires are extinguished in San Francisco has often been remarked, and the celerity with which blaring buildings are often transformed iuto smoking remnants is greatly facilitated by the entire lack of the resinous elements in the redwood lumber.

The fight betweeen Goss and Hill, at Jackson, Miss., was with new, heavy, long-lashed whips. Two lines were drawn eight feet apart, and these were toed by the combatants, who were stripped to the waist. The victor was to be the one who stood longest at the scratch. A great crowd witnessed the brutal exhibition, which lasted three hours, and resulted in a draw. Both were terribly lacerated and exhausted, but neither would acknowledge himself beaten. A not very profound temperanoe orator lately urged the disuse of alcohol, as it was not a natural product, but resulted in a fermentive decomposition. He did not call to mind that tbe same objection would apply to bread. The Nevada Enterprise pub

men who went to the new Coeur d'AIeoe "gold fields," and who depict great sufferings and privations as the result of the rush. A few beans and a slice of bread, with a bit of bacon, constitute a meal, for which $1- was charged.

County History, The delivery of the History of Clay and Owen counties has commenced and from a carpful inspection of the work, we feel no hesitancy in saying that the publishers have more than fulfilled their promises, and furnished us with a valuable book, bound elegantly in morocco, printed in clear type upon fine paper, and containing 968 pges. The "General History" written by Wra. Travis, the "Military Chapter" by Jacob Herr, and the History of Brazil City and township by A. F. Bridges', are full and complete, either chapter alone is well worth the price of the book. Following the opening chapter are well written histories and biographical sketches of each township in the county. Owen county is treated likewise. The two leading chapters were written by Capt. J. W. Archer and Capt. David W. Beem. The book ia illustrated with fine lithographic and steel portraits of some of the leading men. The subscribers of this book can find no cause for complaint as the historical matter bears witness of having been gathered with care. Clay county can at least congratulate herself on having a well written and well executed history. Ex. Greencastle Banner; Monroe county has instructed in favor of Dr. C. D. McLahlan, of Harrodsburg, as the Republican candidate for Congress in this District. He entered tbe army when only sixteen years old and went through the war with credit. Afterwards he educated himself, and now has a large practice in his profession. He is also owner of a woolen factory at Harrodtiburg, which gives him a personal interest in tbe needs of the manufacturing, innterest, Dr. McLahlan is a gentleman of force of character, is a good speaker, and is capable of making a strong canvass. He makes a most favorable impression, added' to which he has the requisite energy. He is the

only Republican we have, heard of

who is willing to make the race, and from this it may lie judged that he is not deficient in courage, which is an admirable thing in a candidate.

Worthington Times : Nat. Huston, a stock dealer of this place, had his pocket picked or lost on the ft net cars, in Terre Haute, last Saturday, of four 'hundred and eighty dollars. He could gel no clue to it notwithstanding lie made every effort in his power to find it. This is a heavy loss to Jfat., 'but he is going to continue in the stork business, and try to make it up by hard work and untiring energy,

Many knowing ones say he will not only get the nomination but will be enthusiastically supported by the entire party. An extra guard should be stationed at the white house at once whose duty should lie to keep an eye on the silverware. N. A. Ledger: Mr. John O. Greene, a noted fruit grower in this vicinity, said to the Ledger today, in reply to an inquiry : "There will be no peaches this year. But

there will be a splendid crop of

apples, pears, plums, cherries, rasberries and strawberries. In some localities the rasberry and blackberry vines were in part damaged, but there will, nevertheless, be a good yield of these small fruits. There will also be an abundant grape crop. So you may state in the Ledger that, with the exception

of peaches, we will have plenty of

fruit in this part of the state this year. I find tbe smaller twigs on very many of tbe peach trees killed." Mr. Greene's statement corresponds with statements made by other fruit growers in this vicinity. So all the talk about cherries and small fruits being killed is bosb. A Bride's Dress la Jblcage.
