TINW.UH: peddlers will not figure in the present campaign, as they did two rears ag-o. Tinware is cheaper than ever before known. We saw a new two-gallon tin bucket at a store door the other day marked 10 cents.

lARBKri wire has been placed on the free list by the Senate bill. The men who work in barb wire factories must come in competition with the lowpriced labor of Europe. This is an industry in which Crawfordsville is interested and the thrust comes directly home.

Cot. WATTEESON'S latest remarks about the tiorman-lirice tariff bill is to the effect that if he had a dog that wouldn't bark at it lu would kill the animal at once: and yet he, like all the other cuckoos can be depended upon to endorse the measure as soon as it is pa.ssed.

TIM: New York H'wld has an article in which it shows that man scientific men—among-them Mr. Edison—think it possible to establish communication, by means of electricity, between the earth and Mars. It has recently been demonstrated that wires are not necessary to conduct sound from one point to another. Strange appearances recently observed on Mars have been thought to be efforts by the people of that planet to sig-nal to us.

ACTJXC. under instructions in the form of a resolution, passed at the annual meeting held in Indianapolis on eb. 13, »•$, the officers of the Indiana Lincoln League have had prepared a button of special design to be known as the official League: Emblem. The button is made of bronze,( with raised bust of Lincoln in the center and the inscriptions "Lincoln League of Indiana" on the margin surrounding the bu.st. it is one of the neatest and most appropriate emblems ever adopted by anv political organization, and will tend to uniform and bring into closer relations the League of Republican clubs in Indiana. These buttons can be secured through R. E. Mansfield, Secretary of the League. Indianapolis, Ind.

THIS country from one end to the other seems to be in a state of anarcliv. Armed bodies of strikers are marching here and there, shooting and intimidating those who are witling to work, and destroying the property of mine owners and other employers of labor. 1 houghtful people are beginning to a.sk themselves whether this is a government of law and order or whether it is a government of socialists and anarchists, It is a dark picture, and its features are certainly threatening. Has not the time come to make an end of this nonsense? How long can our form of government stand the strain? The anarchistic element is already a factor of too much strength in our politics, and all possible precautions should be taken against the growth of an influence that is distinctly and entirely pernicious. Isn't it about time to close the gates of Castle (iarden?

THE platform adopted by the Pennsylvania Republicans contains a plank demanding-'-.such changes in -,vr naturalization laws as' will deny the rights of American citizenship to anarchists and to all other persons hostile to our Government and to that liberty of law upon which it is based." Commenting on this plank the St Louis Globe-Dciwicnit forcibly savs: "This touches a matter of decided and increasing importance, and one that should enlist the attention of all patriotic people, regardless of partisan differences. We are annually adding to our voting population a large number of foreigners who have no respect for our institutions and no sympathy with our political system. They do not come here for the purpose of living upright and law-abiding lives, and yielding honest allegiance to the Government, but with a view to disseminating revolutionary doctrines and fomenting disorder ami destruction. It is impossible for them to be loyal citizens and entertain the sentiments which thev bring with them. Whatever they may say or swear about their intentions, they are not to be trusted. They are opposed to the conditions upon which the safety and welfare of society depend, and by no sort of reasoning can their views be harmonized with the idea of fidelity to the obligations that thev assume."

FRANK CONFESSION.

Sir Walter Scott'n Wnverler Novel* fop Vnciittnn KemUnj?. Robert Chambers, publisher, one night appeared at his club, after a short absence, and there delighted at least one member—J. C. Jeaft'reson—by a delioiouslv frank expression of opinion, says Youth's Companion. Jeaffreson began the conversation by asking: "What have you been doing since I saw you last?" "1 have joost been spending the time in Scotland with my ain people, and for my diversion I have been reading vet again Scott's novels. 1 went deliberately through the whole lot o' them. What do you think of a mon o' my years spending the greater part of the long holidays in sic a way?" "It was in that way that I first made acquaintance with the Waverley novels." was the enthusiastic reply, "in a broiling hot summer and autumn. How you must have enjoyed yourself!" "Weel. weel. I canna say." returned the Scottish publisher and man of letters. Then he looked warily up and down the room to make sure of not being heard by any brother Scotsman, and continued: "I canna say I enjoyed the buiks so much as I did in my younger time. I would not say it aloud in Adinbro, but weel you believe me when I say that Sir Walter isn't what he used to be to me? To tale you the truth," he added, lowering his voice almost to a whisper, "to tale you the truth, I found him rather prosy: Ay, but dinna be laughing, or the lads there will be asking what I said to you. It is the truth that I tale you: I moost confaee I fund him at times a leetle prosy!"

CODFISH GALORE.

Portland lloaats a Single Pile of Ooe Han* dre«I and Thirteen CnrcU. Imagine 4.51X1 quintals, or 504,000 pounds, or SSi tons, or 113 cords of salted cod and pollock, all neatly piled up in one building, and you will have, says the Lewiston Journal, before you the largest stock of fish in the city of Portland at the present time. It has all been brought from Scotia and Newfoundland since the 10th of October. There is one pile of fourteen tons of specially selected codfish. They were big fellows when taken from the water ana weighed then from 40 to 80 pounds each. Now they weigh from 25 to S5 pounds apiece. When they have been stripped of the skin, carefully boned, trimmed into slices of faultless flesh like so much clean, clear bread or cheese, and packed in boxes marked "boneless fish." thev will weigh from 12 to 15 pounds apiece. Such is the shrinkage of an 80-pound codfish into the perfect food product. In the trimming process about 20 pounds of "scrap" are removed to every 100 pounds of the boneless slices. This is. of course, good food tissue, though it looks decidedly like "leavings." It is 6old for about 8 cents a pound. Country fish peddlers buy it. sometimes in '.V and 150 pound lots, and sell it to fanners and villagers, to make into hash, for about 10 cents a pound. The skins are packed in barrels and sent away to Gloucester, Mass., where they are made into glue. They bring about a cent and a half a pound. The bones sell for two or three dollars a ton and are hauled over to Cape Elizabeth to be utilized as a fertilizer for cabbages.

A STRANGE CASE.

How an Enemy was Foiled. The following jrraphlc statement will be read with Intense interest: "1 cannot describe the numb, creepv sensation that existed in my arms, hands ana lops. I had to rub and beat thoc^e parts until they were sore, to overcome in a measure the dead feeling that had taken possession of them. In addition, I had a strange weakness in my back and around my wais? together with an indescribable 'gone* feeling In my stomach. Physicians paid it was creeping paralysis, from which, according to their universal conclusion, there is no relief Once It fastens upon a person, they tuv, it continues Its insidious progress until it reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies. Such was mv prospecu had beeu doctoring a vear and a half steadily, but with no particular benefit, when 1 saw an advertisement of Dr Miles' Kestorative Nervine, procured a bottle and began using It. Marvelous as it may seem, but a few days had passed before every bit of that creepy feeling had left me, and there has not beeu evoa the slightest indication of its return. I now feel as well as I ever did. and have gained ten pounds in weight, though 1 had run down from 170 to 137. Four others have used Dr. Miles' Kestorative Nervine on my recomendation, and It has been as satisfactory in their cases as In mine."—James Kane, La Uuc, o.
