CENTRAL COMA1ITTEE CHAIRMAN. Preliminary arrangements toward beginning the work of the campaign will soon started all over the State. In this county a convention to select a chairman for the democratic central committee will soon be called. Let us begin right. A good beginning presages ultimately good results. For the position of chairman for the ensuing two years the names of Henry I. Vancleave and Taylor Thompson nre mentioned. Either of them, we believe, would be satisfactory to the party. Both are reliably democratic, both are party workers and both have the confidence of the party. Our chances, we believe, if we but improve them, are lecideilly favorable to the party in this county. There is anything but harmony among our friends, the enemy, in this county. There is much of ''even up" business to be finished among republican aspirants for office, and those who got left last year. The friends of
Walkup and Brunei- are getting their knives ready to use in the fight next fall uporj those who helped to down them, and they will use them too with a merciless hand. Many of the republicans don't think so. but will find out further along as the campaign progresses. If the democracy put good men in position in the management of the campaign, and select a good ticket, all or the majority of it can be elected. As stated for the position of chairman either of the gentlemen mentioned for the place will be satisfactory we believe to the party.
NO FUSION NEXT YEAR. A meeting of over 200 representative democrats of the State was held at Indianapolis last week to arrange for the campaign next year. There was much discussion over, the present political situation and a general opinion expressed that the prospects ahead for the democracy of Indiana had a decidedly encouraging outlook. Very generally we observe there was a firm feeling against fusion with the populists or any other small political party that may be seeking popular favor. This is most sensible. The democracy never should again fuse with any other party regardless of its name or its principles. It always seemed to us as an admission of cowardise, as an abandonment of principles. If a party has not the courage to stand up and advocate its principles boldly, it should disband at once. If it yields anything in order to catch the voters of some temporary combination of soreheads it brings itself within the contempt of all thinking men. The populists as a party is selfish, is built on narrow grounds, looks only to the advancement of one class, but is ready to catch votes from any party, at any time and in any way. It appeals to the prejudice and not to the reason nor intelligence of the people, and never can be an organization of strength. Those at the gathering at Indianapolis the other day who opposed fusion hereafter start out on correct lines. Stand by your principles if correct although defeat may seem to lie near. A final triumph will come.
CONGRESS.
Congress has been in session now some two weeks, and it is supposed that aside from the usual holiday vacation will continue in assembly until the middle of next summer. The expectation of Congress doing much for the country, like past gatherings of that body, is rarely realized, and by the time thoy adjourn the public hears of it with much satisfaction. The law making power of the government for years past has become to be recognized as one of the most expensive and useless things with which a supposed free government has to contend. No question if Congress would meet but once in four years and for a six months' session only, it would be ample for the demands of the people. But the humbug must continue, of course. The people are accustomed to it, and many politicians would be out of a job if it were otherwise.

AMENDING THE LAW. 3 A motion was made in Congress by some member the other day that the pension law be amended by which young widows, who marry veteran soldiers in most cases simply to receive their pensions after their husbani.'s death, be shut off. A very sensible idea, but it failed to go through. Another part of this law which eeems to need amending badly is that in vogue now by which many three months soldiers receive bigger pensions than the three year veterans. There are a number of cases of that kind right here in Crawfordsville. A pension is an.l should be considered an instrument or donation of honor, but there are thou sands who have no just grounds for receiving them, in spite of what ponsioti examining boards may say or do.
GIVE US A NEW DEAL. We observe that many of the old plugs who wero on the democratic State ticket last year, or have been candidates for something £or twenty years past, are beginning to announce themselves or having friends to do so, as candidates before the State convention for positions on the Stato ticket. We beliove it would be best for the party to have an entire new deal next year, and the ticket composed of new men. We have no names whatever,to suggest as candidates, but believe the old stereotypes should be cast aside next year. Candidates once defeated are rarely as strong again in future political races, besides the people are getting yearly fatigued in supporting chronic ofli'-.e seekers.
There is more Catarrh in this section of lite country than all other diseases put together, and until th. last few years was supposed to b? incurable. For a great tinny years doctors pronounced it a jcal disease, and prescribe! loctl remedies, and by canstantly failing to ci.ru with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disetse, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by P. J. Cheney .t Co., Toledo, O'nio, is the only constitutional cure on th1* market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoanfull. It acts directly on the bl 1 and mucous surface of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any caso it tails to cure. Send for circulars] and testimonials'

Dig down to the cause of your sick, ness, if you want to get well and stay well. Most likely it's indigestion. The irritating poisons of fermenting, putrid food, left in the stomach by indigestion, causa headache, neuralgia, nervousness, dizziness, stomachache, nausea, irritability, and all the other well-known symptoms of indigestion.
They also cause many pains and disorders which are often laid to other cause and hence are not easily cured. But as soon as the poisons are removed) all these symptom and disorders disappear, because there is nothing left to cause them. Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it prevents the undigested food from fermenting in the stomach and helps the stomach to digest its food.

HE importance of the food supply of man derived from waters, both fresh and salt, cannot be overestimated. It is true in uncertain ways nature has found means to preserve the persecuted race .of fishes. The pe
culiarity of this class of animals surpasses that of any other of the vertebrates. Millions of eggs have been found in single sturgeon and also cod and salmon. Myriads of eggs devoured by sea birds, seals, marine animals, and other fishes of every sort may feed for months upon millions of salmon and cod before these fish return to the hidden depths of the ocean, and yet the species resist every devastation and continually reappear in undiminished numbers. And not only has it been found necessary to exact strict laws in reference to the preservation of fish, but, as the readers well know, large amounts of money are devoted annually*to the culture, preservation and hatching fish eggs and restocking of lakes and rivers exhausted by overfishing. It has been found that many fishes once neglected by the purveyors in public appetite have been found well favored, and in every respect fit for food, so that every year some specie is added to the list of edible fish. Yet, like Oliver Twist, the consumer cries for more. The proportion of food of mankind furnished by the fleets along the coast and the snares, nets and lines with which fish are captured in rivers, etc., is constantly enlarging.
Not only this, but the industries which fish have contributed give this class of animals an importance second to birds and mammals. The capture of fish for manufacturing gelatine, isingglass and for medicinal purposes is carried on on a large scale, and most of the artificial jewelry that so much resemble pearls as almost to equal the natural production of the sea. Attention has been recently called to the large fish, somewhat resembling the pike, belonging to the family of Ostrog lossidae, which inhabits the waters of Brazil and Guiana. As food fish the Arapaima gigas are unequaled, and is already of considerable economical value in Brazil, where it is highly valued. As yet, however, it is only fished for by the native tribes along the rivers, although considerable quantities are salted for exportation. In our illustration natives are shown dragging fish from streams, and also size. It is the largest strictly freshwater fish in the world, its length being fifteen feet and weighing four hundred pounds. Its head is without scales, but the naked skin assumes a horny texture, which taking the form of plates, covers the entire head. The scales are very thick, and arrayed over the body like pieces of mosaic.
The mouth, like that of a pike it resembles, is quite large and round, with small but numerous teeth. It is with the bones of this fish the Indians arm their hooks and lances by which it is caught as well as with the spurs of the porcupine. They are also shot with the air-propelled wourali poisoned arrows of the Macouslic tribe. Strange as it may seem, this poison does not render the fish unfit to eat. The Indians sharpen their fishhooks, arrow points and lances on the teeth of another fish, the Paraya. The Indians -prepare a part of the jaw of this fish containing five or six teeth. This is carefully cleansed, a hole is bored through it and fastened to the quiver. The weapons are readily sharpened by placing the points between the keen edges of any two teeth and drawing them with a twisting motion backward and forward. A number of natives embark
In their canoes, armed with lances, bows and arrows and blow guns. As soon as the fish appears it is shot or lanced. Of course tt instantly disappears, but Is followed up and shot at again and again until, becoming exhausted, is easily captured. The taking of this splendid fish will doubtless develop into an important industry. And I am assured it could be readily bred in our southern waters, as it la both prolific and hardy.—Minnie Slade In New York Ledger.
