CRAWFORDSVILLE INDIANA

THE sobool book trust ie another ol thoso Infamous raids on the people against which there is a growing reTolt all oyer this country.

IT is a well known fact in sclonce that the eyes are more tho epitome of the man than all other features that may help to suggest character.

Two of tho dangers which threaten our government to-day is centralization and paternalism, either of which il given absolute control will destroy the American Republic.

A CHICAGO student of society says "men dress to please women, and the latter, dear creatures, array themselves gorgeously that other women maj' be a prey to envy."

THE government has not a dollar except what it collects by some kind of a tax. The various modo3 of collection are given different names, but the fact remains nevertheless.

BERLIN has got far enough along civilization to discriminate in regard to its criminal classes. It provides in its prisons for seven different orders of criminals. There is an .order in crime.

THE striving to be eloquent, to say something that sounds well, has often led public speakers to say ridiculous things. Tho cool analytical listener is never deceived into talcing sound for sense.

A WILL of one of the Pharaohs 5,000 years old has been discovered. If there is any money in it, we may expect to hear of direct descendants of old man Pharaoh springing up all over the world.

AN official estimate sets down tho number of wolves in Russia at 170,000 it is further stated that ttye loss caused by the destruction of sheep and swine by wolves is so great that it cannot be aven approximately estimated.

Die. AGNEW says there may be 3nvenlcen distinct reasons why a per-

and distinct remeav to recommend.

A C.VLIFOKXIAN who has been twice divorced from his wifo has again remarried her. There's whore tho beauty and adaptability of our divorce laws come in. They allow a couple whose association becomes wearisome, but who, after all, really love each other, to take an occasional vacation.

WEALTH may not bo worth tho cost of getting, but tho fickle goddess cannot bo wooed by tho individual who is here to-day and elsewhere to-morrow, whose mind is without balanco. whose body represents unrest A fixed purpose, a concentrated effort, a determination to win, aro important faotors in the pursuit of gain.

KATE FIELD'S Washington says that the phrase old maid is absolute, and that the porson formerly described by it has become as rare as the American bison. Kate is no bison, but she must look with a degreo of sympathy across the rapidly civilizing prairies to where the exterminated animal which she chooses as a figure at one time roamed in vast herds.

WITH judges as with everybody else, the personal character of the man must be the foundation of all his doings. Jie must see not only principles but facts as colored by his own individuality and by the effect of education and of lifelong associations. Judges can bo found who will act contrary to party traditions, to their pecuniary interests and to their popularity, but not contrary to their own personality.

SEVENTY-FIVE per cent, of the successes in business, manufacturing or mechanical pursuits, is the result of concentrated effort. A cannon ball will destroy more masonry than scattering musket shot A flood will undermine mere river banks than the drops of a summer shower. Concentration of brain or muscle will produce more important results than vasrocoasional bursts of thought or action.

SCOTCH manners can occasionally be odd. A Glasgow gentleman in escorting some ladies from a dance, found a diamond hairpin in the bottom of tho cab and landed it to one of the ladies. The owner advertised, and the young woman who had taken it from her escort received a reward of £10. Then the young man applied for a share of the money, and, she refusing, he carried the question to court The court allotted him £o.

As REGARDS the amount of sleep, '""•'every umn must be a law unto himself. If one can preserve good hei.lth and full intellectual or physical activity by six hours of sleep there is no good reason for trying to sleep longer time. Every one should take care that short sleep has not resulted from a long-continued bad habit tho system should have every opportunity to.get the amount of sleep that seems to be necessary for it. j-yi mb

His proposition also contained the national bank redemption fund feature of the Dorsey bill, and also a provision that when gold ands ilver reach par there shall be free coinage. It omits the bullion redemption provision of the caucus bill and was, therefore, immediately assailed by soveral members on that account.

ACTIVITY OF FARMER*.

taportsnt Uoremtnti Toward O* Combination.

A Shoals (Ind.) special to the Indianapolis News, of tho 4th, says: Hon. Thomas Forco, President of the State organization of the Farmers' Allianoe, is an enterprising farmer, residing in this county, and hei is Trustee of Center Township, having hold that office for two years, and being re-elected without opposition for four years in April last. Ho is an intelligent gentleman, highly respeoted, and is prominent as a Knight of Pythias. Heretofore he has been a radical Republican, but under the influence of the Alliance he is becoming somewhat conservative. His official relations with the Alliance prompted a News representative to quest tion him concerning the strength of the order, and other matters of which he might choose to speak in conneotion therewith. Mr. Force was ohosen at the State meeting, which was held at Indiana apolis on the 26th of April last. Concerning its strength, he oan not give tho exact figures of the Alliance, but he places it in round numbers at nine thousand, and he says: "At the time of our State organisation there wero t5G sub-lodges, with a membership oj nearly 6,000. Now we have men organize ing the Alliance in a majority of the countlea of the State. The first sublodge was organized in this (Martin) county. At the present time thero are about thirty sublodges in this county alone, with a mem* borship ofal,500." "My idea is," he said, "that the money question affects the price of farm products more than the tariff, and for this reason the Alliance advocates the free coinage of sils ver, and as this subject has come up, let me also say that we favor the sub-treasury plan. We think the systemjjof using oertain banks as United States depositories should be abolished, aud in place of such banks we favor tho establishment of subtreasuries in every county in each of tho States that offers for sale during tho year $500,000 worth Jof farm products, such as wheat, corn, oats, barloy, rye, rice, tobaccot otton, wool and sugar altogether forming a sub treasury office which shall have con-
