The deposits in First National Bank, have increased twenty-five
thousand dollars since the first of
the month. The bank is carying over forty thousand dollars more
deposits now than it did this time
last year. A good proportion of this money belongs to farmers and private individuals who prefer to put their money where they can
get it when they want it, rather than loan it to their neighbors, and perhaps never get the interest or
principal either. This shows something wrong somewhere. There
seems to be a general distrust and
lack of confidence in mankind generally especially in your neighbor
who wants to borrow a little money.

No shoddy there. The G. A. R. of Bloomington will reproduce on the nightof April 30th, the popular play, "Andersoriville, or the Scout's Last Shot." This play drew large crowds when given here this winter, and will draw equally well on the 30th. Mr. McPheeters struck the key-note when he told the people in the tax-payers' meeting to quit signing petitions if they were opposed to taxes. It is a notorious fact that people sign a petition to get rid of the importunities of the person presenting it, not knowing or caring what the body of the pe
tition may contain. It is time to
call a halt in such matters. , The Mikado will be given in Mendelssohn Hall on Friday and

-Under the regular heading will be found the announcement of Wm. P. Rogers, who is a candidate for Clerk of Monroe county. Mr. Rogers is perhaps as well known as any young man in Monroe coun
ty, and is as popular as he is well
known. As an attorney he has made his mark, as a canvasser in
our county elections he has been a
prominent factor, and as a staunch Republican he has no superior.
His qualifications for the office are
excelled by no man in fact this
point will not be raised by the op
position. A nomination would
give him an opportunity to show
his friends what-he can clo as a can
vasser, and we feel confident that his election would certainly follow
a nomination.
--The "lax-payers' meeting" in
the court house, Saturday, was well
attended. Jas.Marlin stated the ob
ject of the meeting to be an expres
sion upon "high taxes, extrava
gance," etc. Hugh Marl in read
carefully prepared and verbose reso
lutions asking a halt in expendi
tures, a reduction of salaries of
county officers, and -a repeal of the
present turnpike law. Jas. Marlin
denounced the college appropriation
though admitting that he had sign
ed a petition for it) he said in his
remarks, "I am opposed to colleges 1"
Dr. Campbell being called on said
he wasn't prepared to condemn the
college appropriation--thought it
was proper and right, and would so
prove. Mr. Hugh Marlin then
spoke in denunciation ot the college
appropriation, turnpike law and ar
tcsian welli J. G. McPheeters jr.
then slated that these things had
been petitioned for by the people,nnd
the commissioners were powerless
to refuse a petition properly gotten i up they should stop sigoiug petitions if they want to stop expenditures. Mr. lloseberry said the legislature was the place to go for redress ; that for his part he favored the college appropriation, ete After Hugh Marlin had got through a resolution to organize a Tax-Puy-
jers Union, the meeting adjourned.
