KKGP down the daei.

THESE are golden days for the farmer.

DEMOCRATS oannot reform the tariff without increasing the duties.

A SOUTH CAROLINA constitutional jag must be acquired between the hours of 7 a. m. and 6 p. m.

ONION parties are the rage in South Bend. A party by any other name would smell as sweet.

PRESENT prices, notwithstanding a general shrinkage in values, encourpges a great increase in the hog crop.

Frx up your premises and let Crawfordsville look her prettiest during the commencement season when many strangers are with us.

IN one respect an income tax would be popular. It would create a big batch of new offices to be filled by the very hungry and very thirsty.

To DAY, June 17, is the 118th anniversary of the battle of Bunker Hill. The day is being celebrated at the Columbian Exposition with appropriate ceremonies.

TIIE State press is demanding copies of Attorney General Smith's speech in defense of the fee and salary law. Smith's silence in that case was painfully eloquent.

PROFESSOR BRIGGS' defense offered to the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church at the recent meeting in Washington is to be brought out immediately in pamphlet form by the Scribners.

DEMOCRATS hereabouts as represented by the Star are suffering from "that tired feeling" so prevalent in the spring. A prescription of pink pills for pale people would be reinvigorating. Far 6ale by John A. Booe, the druggist. No charges for this advertisement.

TIIK Western Christian Advocate, the leading Methodist newspaper in the West, says of the Briggs case: "Now, it may be altogether proper for the Pftebyterian church to siienoe such a man, but it can never unchurch him. Its Assembly may vote 298 to 11G against him but the enlightened Christian sentiment of the world is three to one in his favor." It will thus be seen that the Methodist church is tinctured with the heresy of Dr. Briggs.

SENATOR DAN VOOKHEBS in a speech in the Senate in 1864 is on record as saying: "Let each eye whioh now beholds the sun take its last look at soenes of plenty and prosperity. Our fall from bounding wealth and unlimited resources to pinch and shrunken poverty aid cowering bankruptcy is as certain under our present policy as the fall of Lucifer, the morning star, from heaven." D.in is Btill among the Democratic p-ophets.

THE telegraph wires are now burdened with tho important information that before the end of the next fortnight the Cleveland family would number more than three. With great particularity the infant's clothes have been described, and the way the newspaper man wades through blue surrah silk, dotted Swies muslin, valienciennes, dainty little silk flannel bands, little white silk shirts, and frills of embroidery, lace, rutlles, satin ribbons, inch wide hems, tucks, beading and long dresses galore is enough to delight the heart of any mother.

MAitKP.ii men in the next Democratic conventions will bo those who assert Unit a ring

E.hall

control the federal ofiicc.s In Montgomery county. Tills is plain talk, but the Star is iirsred liy scores or trlo.l and true Democrats to give ihis notice and It knows that tho sentimuul will prove to ho noompty tiling,—Star,

The Star with "soores of tried and true Democrats" seem to be out on a sandy desert. The Mecca to which they started on their pilgrimage is still in the dim, blue distanae. The oasis is out of sight. They are dying of thirst. Hunger is gnawing their vitals. They threaten to „turn cannibals and devour each olher. Proceed with the feast.

TIIE national bank circulation out Btanding at the close of the month of May amounted to $177,064,477, an in crease of 81-109,180 for the month and of $4,074,020 for the twelve months ending therewith. The portion of the circulation

biiBed

on the deposit of bonds

amounted to $156,028,008, an increase of 84,074,020 for the twelve months, ending 347,015 for the year. The portion of the circulation based on the deposit of lawful money amounted to $21,036,461), a decrease of $586,510 for the month, and of $6,673,025 for the twelve months. The bonds on deposit to secure circulation as above amounted to $174,539,050, an increase of $1,280,250 for.the month.

The Prisoner.

A man's skull is his lifolong jail, Behind its prison bars From itM eve windows does tho soul

I'cep at this earth and stars. I)ut unlike jails of wood or stono Its prisoner ever dwells alono.

Though through Its front doors perfumed galos Are blown from glens of gladness, And through its back doors muslo strains

Roll in in waves of madness. And though ho hear and heed each tone. The prisoner still must dwell alone.

Though past the windows of the Jail Sweep scones of solemn splendor, And through tho doors float hymns of Joy

Or dirges deop and tender, The prisoner hears tho mirth and moan, But in his jail ho dwells alono.

No lover ever knows the soul He loves in all its sweotness Tho fullest love, however strong,

Is marred by Incompleteness No heart is ever fully known— The prisoner ever dwells alone. -S. W. Foss.

Too Late.

Perhaps Tennyson has written nothinp: which appeals to tliu hearts of all who read his poems more than tho lyric of "Too Late." Th burden of tho bad refrain comes homo with telling force to the hearts of those who have lost friends by that dread disease—consumption They realize, "too late," the result of neglect. They feel that the dear one might have been saved if they had heeded the warning of the hacking cough, the pallid cheek, and weakening system. They feel this all the more keenly because tliey sec others being rescued from the grasp of tho destroyer, and they think what is raving others might have saved their loved one. When the first signal of danger is seen, take steps to avert the catastrophe. Bo wise in time. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will drive away consumption. Do not wait until too late before putting its wonderful eHlcaey to the test. It suci-eeds where other remedies fail

Don't Forget This.

There is no doubt but that the proper order of procedure in making city improvements is 1. A sanitary survey and comprehensive plan for all the improvements, giving full information BB to conditions and methods. 2. In nearly all cases the construction of the sewers and btreet drains and the necessary grading, if any. 3. Street paving.

One of the great advantages of the plan iB that any part, large or small, of the work can be done with absolute certainty that it will fit with every other part and that once down it will never have to be reconstructed because it is out of date.—Fi-om THE JOUBNAL of March IS.

Tho doctors have given up her case as hopeless. 'She may live for some time, they say, 'but as for a cure, that is quite out of the question." "I don't believe it," said a woman who heard'the bad news, "I don't believe she is any worse off than I was five years ago, from the same trouble, and I don't look very much liko a dead woman, do I!" She certainly did not, with her red, plump cheeks. bright eyes, and 150 pounds of good health bone, blood and flesh, "l'mgoingto see her and tell her how she can get well." She did so. She advised Mrs. Brown to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Mrs. Brown took tho advice, also the medicine which c.dre'i all kinds of delicate diseases so common among women, andgot well. That was two years ago. Last month Bhe presented Mr. Brown with a ten pound son, and "mother and child are doing well.''
