A Character.

One of the most noted characters about Crawfordsvillo is Mike Gerbrick. and few havo seen more of the vicissitudes of life than he. Mike is now 78 yoars old, and expects to be called hence in a few more years, vot in a small way he works every day buying butter, chickens, produce, etc., in aiming to keep the wolf from the door. Ho was a railroad engineer over 50 years ago, running an engine on a road at Reading, Penn. lie came west over 4.0 years ago and ran the first engine on the New Albany & Salem road, (now Monon) a short 36 mile lino then from New Albany to Salem. He drew the first engine from Lafayette to Crawfordsville in 1851, and remained with the company a number of years, tho pay then for a passenger engineer being $2.25 per day. They now receive $3.50 per day for the samo service. He dropped the work about 28 years a#o. has done nothing of the kind since, and is not certain that he could fill tho bill now if called upon. Matrimonially Miko can answer that marriage is not a failure. He is now living with his seventh wife, the remaining six being dead. About four months ago his wife gave birth to a child, it being the 33d of which Mike claims to bo the father. Of the 33 children, 11 of them have died, the remaining 22 being1 in various localities of tho west and a half dozen of them living here. One of his children is the wife of Frank Hunter, marshal of Elwood, lnd. Mike at ono time ran a saloou here and was always quite voluable is describing tho superior quality of the "goods" retailod by him. On one occasion a customer came into tho saloon for a drink of tho ardent, and interrogated Miko as to the quality of his liquor. "That liquor, sir' said Mike "is as pure and sweet as the flowers of May." The customer required no further recommendation. Mike has accumulated little or nothing, and after hisdomise his numerous heirs will not fight over a great inheritance.

That Innocent Thing. (Communication.)

At the late farmers' institute of Montgomery comity there was a pup'-r read by a lady from abroad in which it was inferred mat there was a depression in farming. The cause assignor! for the said depression in fanning was laziness and idleness on the part of tho farmers. There were two gentlemen who took ex •options to the cause given in that paper for any depression that might exist among the farmers. One of thom wished to know if thorn was any more idleness among farmers than any other class. Ho also wanted to know why hogs had declined in price when there were new avenues being opened up for their market. He appeared to know that Jim Blainn said that "trusts should not be disturbed." The other gentleman assailed tho paper by making the charge that it was sent out by Jay Gould from Wall street some yearB ago, and that the lady was hired to come here and read it. One just cause he assigned for the depression was tho vast amount of money going to England as interest on government bonds.

Ono of the defenders of that paper claimed that it had originated in Indiana some time in the last year anil had been rehearsed by a school girl of Mont gomery county.

Now there is something singular about that paper. Where was the "innocent thing" hatched? Did it originate among an intelligent and industrious 6et of farI mers, admitting of a depression among them and charging themselves with the cause of it by being lazy and idle, or did they mean to charge the few who might be lazy with the cause of their depression? Or did the few who might be lazy among the farmers discover that there was a depression and take all the blame upon themselves?

Now that paper has a very bad face on it, and anyone who has sense enough to keep out of the asylum can see at once that it never originated among the farmers or their friends. And why should anybody come from abroad to road it? There are plenty of women in Montgomery county with enough red in their cheeks and blood in their necks to read that Wall street paper in any farming community. And there are plenty of petty men in Montgomery county who would slap that in tho faco of the most industrious farmers. It is not any tho less damnable, either, on account of it being read by a school girl. Perhaps her parents worked sixteen hours per day to support her and send her to school. If they do they should see that their girl is not imposed on any more. It was amusing to see how the farmers took it. Why. it was the most complete job of hoodwinking I ever saw. Most of them guiped it down like a hog takes mush.

The strange thing about it is that the laboring classes are continually being hoodwinked by somebody, all the way from Wall street down to their next door neighbor. The farmers own 22 per cent, of the wealth of the country and they pay 80 per -,'ent. of the taxes. There is $180 worth of white lead produced in this country for $1 worth that is imported. From this it can be seen that the white lead trust gets a tariff profit on $180 while the government gets a tariff duty on one dollar. The while load trusts of this country sell white lead over in Canada for a little over 2 cents per pound less than they do to the people who vote to give them the benefit of a tariff profit. When they sell it in Canada for two cents per pound loss it is evident that they are making a sufficient profit there or they would not do it. This is only one case out of a hundred which cause the depression among the farmers. The farmers' alliance people, are being hoodwinked by some things that did not: originate among them or their friends. They have a "Land Loan' scheme, of which the wording was changed at their meeting in Indianapolis. There they have a ware house scheme and the government ownership of railroads, all of which are intended to increase the power of the government in favor of capital against labor. That Wall street paper is intended to educate the farmer to not murmur nor complain no matter how great the oppression. A government by the people and for the people.will soon be a thing of the past, and your next door neighbor will help on with it and claim that it is innocent enough for a school jjirl to take part in.

Remember that Man-o-Wa. the great Indian doctor will be at Robbins House, Crawfordsville. on Tuesday Dec. ii9t.li. at. which time lie would be pleased to see all those who are suffering with any chronic ailment. Consultation and examinations free. Treatment including' .ill medicines used from *•_! to !?." p(.r lUOIltll.

IT IS ALL OVER.

After an Interesting Seesion the Board of Coaiijussioiiw-s Close Tliuir Labors.

Tho county commissioners adjourned lato last Wednesday night after ono of the most laborious sessions ever held in the court. Many accounts were allowed and much other buniness of importance transacted but t'uit which exeiited the most interest wore the appointments which the Board control. Much tall hustling was indulged in by the different candidates, yet nothing but the boBt of fooling and good will prevailed during tho contest. They recognized that all con Id not bo elected and wore not slow to appreciate the Boards unnoviablo position. The apjiuiini.ientB are made. Thev are all iron, but not better thaii the defeated ones. No dislionorI ablo offorts were used !i»"uig the many I applicants. Everytuing was fair and everybody is or should bo satisfied. Following is the result

T. Whittington. During the different ballots Mr. Peterson cast his votes for Ben Crane, H. A. Wilkinson, W. T. Whittington and once l\,r il. D. Vancleave, thinking to offer the latter as a compromise candidate. lCach democrat stood firmly by his man until the 32nd ballot when Mr. Fullon went over to Johnston and the contest was over.

A Oueer Elooement.

Last Tuesday. Indianapolis News contained the following startling information:

A telegram dated Nashville, Tenn., says: Everett Lynn and Miss Dora Morris, aged nineteen and eighteen respectively, and hailing from Mace, lnd.. reached this city to-night, with the in tention of being united iu marriage tomorrow, the laws of Indiana and Kentucky preventing their union unless the consent of their parents was first ob tained. Lynn was arrested to-night for carrying a pistol and was placed behind the bars at the police-station. Miss Morris is at a hotel, and it is more than likely that the couple will be united in holy wedlock to-morrow. Lynn and Miss^ Morris made the trip from Mace to Nashville in a buggy, the journey occupying ten days.

The Lynn and Morris families are close neighbors and are numbered among the best citizens in Walnut township. 1. here was only one objection offered to tho match and that grew out of the extreme vouthfulness of the pair. The young couple left between Thanksgiving night and the morning following, the young lady leaving a note on the stand in the room stating the reason of her flight. She asked them not to worry over her. that she would soon return. It was at first supposed they had gone to Danville, 111., that Mecca for all lovers, but a telegram failed to intercept thoni there and likewise at several other points. The item in the News, as far as known, was the first intimation the parents had of the young.'pcople's whereabouts. Mr.audMrs. Lynn are expected to return now soon, receive the blessing of the parents and resume a quiet, peaceful life in a cozy little home in the east part of the county.
