H'.E AND SALARY CASE
ISriof Filed Uy tlie Attorney General In the Supreme Court.
The attorney general has filed a reply brief in the Supreme Court in the fee and salary case from Lake county, says the Indianapolis News. It says: "The only question involved in this case is the effect upon the Recorder of Lake county, occasioned by the fact that no salary lias been provided for the Recorder of Shelby county. All of these questions have been put to rest by a previous decision of the Supreme Court. "In appellee's brief it is admitted that the legislature may flx the salary of an officer at whatevei figure it sees tit, or even deprive him of all compensation, unless, perhaps, in the case of constitutional office, and then the salary must be reasonable. He [the appellee] is asked that a statute fixing the compensation of five county officers in ninety-one counties of the State and also giving a salary to two officers in the ninety-second county shall be stricken down, because no salaries for a few months are given to three officers in the latter county."-
"SOCIETY AND LIFE."
The Lectures IUMI AiUlrettaef* of Hon. "Will Cumbuck—Introduction by John Clark liidpath, LL. D,
For the last twenty-five years Hon. Will Cuinback has been before the publie as a lecturer, mostly on social topics. In all of the Middle, Western and Pacific States he is a familiar figure on the platform and there are but few places of note where his voice has not been heard. Colonel Cumback has collected his lectures and addresses and placed them in 000k form. Ilis lifelong friend, Dr. John Clark Ridpath, the historian, has written an introduction to the book covering twenty-six pages. Dr. Ridpath covers the ground so well as to the style and scope of the volume that leaves but little to be said, especially by less able critics. The Doctor says: "This is a book of social science. It deals with society. It recognizes the virtues of society as well as its faults and foibles. Society is the theme. It echoes and re-eclioes in all these addresses, and is the keynote of the whole." Again, "The author is an ethical teacher. The whole purport and significance of this volume is an appeal for right and truth, for reform and fraternal good-will among men. The author addresses himself not less to the conscience than to the understanding of liis auditors." TUB JOURNAL may add that as charmingly as Dr. Ridpath has written of the lectures and addresses lie has not overdrawn on his imagination. There is a fascination about each of the many which is embraced tin the volume that when once taken up the reader is loath to drop until completed. It is a book that should be found on every shelf, to be taken down in many an idle hour and profitably read.

That excellent citizen, John McLaughlin, was jailed this morning for intoxication. Old McLauglilin becomes a greater street nuisance every day and it is to be lamented that there is not a receptacle somewhere for all such cattle. They should not be permitted to run at large to terrify women and children and disgrace their own families.

The "Great American Novel." A Washington paper prints an interview with Gen. Lew Wallace

"The
Great American Novel." General Wallace says it lias not yet been written, and when it appears it will probably deal with the civil war. The story will be told by some one who was not an actor in those scenes, and when the present -sectional feeling shall have passed away. "It will be written by an American," says the author of "Ben Hur," "for the man who will write the great American novel must be born here, reared and educated here."

A VICIOUS BRUTE
The Notovioim Fri-1 White Attempts the l.!le of Ills Sister and With Armed Strength the Officer* of the Law.
Fred White, the disreputable negro brute, a large portion of whose unsavory career has been passed within penitentiary walls, came to the front again last evening in the role of a would-be murderer. He has resided with his sister, the widow of the late Wes Foster, on north Green street, and has forced her to care for a low negro woman whom he kept there. Last evening Mrs. Foster came running into the police headquarters with the information that Fred had attempted to kill her with a liatcliet and she was afraid for her life. Officers Grimes and Transue at once proceeded to the house when tliey found that White had locked the door. The dangerous man was inside swearing terribly and vowing that he would kill the first man that interfered with him. AdmP'"uce being refused officer Grimes promptly kicked the door open and sprang into the dark and noisome den of the wild beast. White was pushed back by the rebound of the broken door and so was prevented from having a clear blow at the advancing officer. However, he struck viciously several times at close quarters and cut the officer's fingers quite badly. Being unable to use his weapon because of close quarters lie seized Grimes' thumb in his mouth and bit most viciously. He would have doubtless bit it off had not Grimes succeeded in getting a finger in his eye and forcing him to desist. He then threw White bodily out in the yard where lie was seized and clubbed into subjection by Transue^and constable Byas. All the time Grimes had been fighting with White in the house White's woman had been assisting her unsavory lover to the extent of her strength. She was also clapped in jail.
This morning White was brought before oMayor Bandel and pleaded guilty to the charge of assault and battery. The mayor very promptly and properly fined him S50 and costs and sent him to the stone pile to work it out. Prosecutor Moft'ett will doubtless have him before the grand jury for assault with intent to kill and again send him to the penitentiary,
"High Toned."
Peculiarly interesting is the case of a well-to-do and well known Republican citizen who remarked that he intended to vote for Captain lie ITCH for Mayor because, forsooth, "he is high toned and will put some style into things." THE JOURNAL has no word to say against Captain Herron, who is a clever gentleman and no doubt "high toned and stylish" but it does tliiuk that the statement of that Republican is assmine to a wild extreme. Crawfordsville has enough "style" now without carrying it into the police court. What we want there is not rose water and diamonds but stone pile discipline and enforcement of law. That Captain Herron is "liigli toned" and lives in style is certainly no more to his credit than to his discredit when it comes to filling the office of mayor. The present incumbent has displayed splendid judgment in exercising the financial affairs of the city and certainly lias not spared the evil doers who have been brought before him for treatment. He has proved both competent and honest, if not "stylish and high toned." Capt. Herron has repeatedly declared that he did not want the office and it surely would be bad form and worse policy to put him where he does not wish to be and where he has no interest or experience. Captain Herron is certainly not the man for mayor and the Republican voters of Crawfordsville should speak unanimously on this point. What we need is willing and efficient service, not style. Above all, this is a bad year to encourage Democracy.
Don't Take Down Your Sip. John Wanamakcr lias said: "to discontinue an advertisement is like taking down your sign."
That is just the idea. You have a sign above your door to let people know who you arc and where you are and what you are doing. That's what your ad. does. Space in newspapers merely multiplies
3'our
sign. It lets
thousands of people know what you have to sell. The way to think of ad vertising is to consider first the goods you have, to see if they are really desirable. Then figure on the number of people likely to see your announce ment in the paper, tlie proportion of possible customers among that number and what you can afford to pay for each dollars worth of new business. That will give you the size of the ad you ought to use. Then make your ad. clear, logical, convincing. Don't try to be funny unless you arc naturally so and even then don't do it too often. What people want in an ad. is exact, definite 'information. It ought to be given to them in a smooth, more or less argumentative way and as strongly as possible, for "the other fellow" is after the same people.
Catarrh Cannot he Cured
with local applications, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces, llal I's Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was prescribed by one of the best physicians in the country for years, and is a regular prescription. It is composed of the best tonics known, combined with the best blood purifiers, acting directly on the mucous surfaces. The perfect combination of the two ingredients is what produces such wonderful results in curing Catarrh. Send for testimonials, free.

Our Regular Selling Prices
Are from 10 to 25 per cent, less than ordinary clothing dealers can purchase their goods for—
Manufacturers of Clothing exact large profits from the ordinary country clothing merchants, which brings the cost of his merchandise up to such a high point that he is unable to dispose of it at a reasonable price. It is different with
THE AMERICAN.
We are manufacturers. Select our own patterns, cut them, trim them and make them to suit our own ideas. We avoid paying commissions to the high priced traveling salesmen. Nor do we contribute to the lordly clothing merchants. We buy the goods direct from the mills in large quantities, manufacture them into well-made, perfect fitting clothes, and place them on our tables at exact manufacturer's cost. For example, a suit we sell for $5 cost the ordinary dealer at least 10 per cent, more, which is $5.50. Then they usually add another 10 per cent, to cover the cost of freight, etc., which brings it up to $6.15. Save your money and buy direct from the manufacturer.
