Some Plain Facts.
Grave errors, injustice, wrongs of greater or less degree, arise from lack of knowledge of the truth, and more frequently from deception.
The most infamous case on record of deception and injustice is the attempt to demonetize silver as a money of final redemption in the United States.
There is no learned judge, skilled lawyer, or court of justice that is capable of reconciling the effort with the constitutional laws that govern the issue of money in this country.
The people have been deceived, officials in power, chosen to administer justice under the laws, have ignored their sworn duty, and given aid to the scheme that has paralyzed industry, reduced property values one-half, and beggared millions.
There is no authority of law, either specific or by inference, by which gold alone is made the only money with which to discharge debts, either public or private. The effort to make it so is unconstitutional and a national calamity.
Plain and ample information, facts, and truth, concerning this almost successful scheme to corner the wealth of the people, is now being printed in the Cincinnati Enquirer, a newspaper which the combined power of money has failed to muzzle or buy.
The Weekly Enquirer is only 75c. a year. The address is Enquirer Company, Cincinnati, O.

ROACHDALE.
A Thriving Town of Putnam Coun
ty is Talked of By the Review
Man. It is with much regret that we failed to secure a history of Ruachdale md Putnam county in time tor this sketch, but such was our misfortune, lluwever we shall endeavor to fully represent that thriving young town omitting onlyits earliest history. iioachdale is located not far distant from the Montgomery county line and in Putnam county. It is among the yoflngest towns in the State and by no means less active. Perhaps its growth, in fact its entirety has consumed but a briefjperiod of seventeen years, and its weed-like growth is marked all along the line with marvelous marked attainments. Like a

first resisted a straightening out for future development, but mother enterprise at the proper time administered the proper prescription and the infant is now gloriously budding into its majority. Factories of various kinds have found profitable location here, the schools and churches have lent their aid, the lodges, professions and mercantile ambition all deserve their plaudits, together with the Monon and I. D. & W. railroads and fertile surrounding country. We gladly note among Roach dale's foremoft the following
ESTKRPKISES:
Dr. W. C. Hesket graduated from the Kentucky school of medicine of Louis ville in 1880. His first practice was in Chattanooga, Xenn., where he was also professor of practice in the Chattanooga college for six years. In the spring of 181)5 Dr. Heskell came to this State, locating in Indianapolis and later in the fall of the same year came to Roachdale where he has since enjoyed a good practice. He is a Scottish Kite Mason and a K. of P. member.
W. E. Longnecker, the well known saloon man, has been a resident here for 9 years, and has conducted a lirst class saloon. He is the 3d oldest busi ness man in the town and has built up a large trade. The "Old Oscar Pepper' and "Tea Kettle" whiskies handled by him are prime takers, as is the celebrated Schmids Indianapolis be. r.
J, H. Barnes & Co., composed of .T- II. Burnt sand R. T. Young, is an enterprising jewelry store with attractive outlays of jewelry, watches, clocks, silverware, musical instruments, etc. Mr. Barnes has been carrying on business here for three years. Mr. Y'oung joined him in partnership last March. Mr. Barnes is an expert optician and a grad uate from the New York Optical Insti tute. In addition to a full line of jewelry, they sell all kinds of fancy notions, cigars and tobaccos and do all kinds of watch and clock repairing.
Dr. C. C. Collins is a graduate of the University of Louisville, class of 92. For two and one-half years prior to coming here he practiced in Groveland, Ind. The doctor holds his own in the matter of office practice and is a very careful physician. He is an honored member of the Ben Hur and Red Men societies, and a property owner of Roachdale.
Alex Mayhall, wlio was one of Ladoga's prosperous merchants for six years, has conducted a large general store here for four years. It requires 1,900 feet of floor space to display his large stock of dry goods, millinery, carpets, rugs, boots and shoes, draperies, lace curtains, cloaks, groceries and notions. Mr. Mayhall in addition to being a wideawake man of business, is also a Mis sionary Baptist minister yet supplying the pulpit which he has done for 24 years past.
Smith & Edwards, J. K. Smith and J. T. Edwards are also enterprising mcr chants loeated 011 Washington street. Their stock consists of boots, Bhoes, clothing, hats, caps and a general line of gents' furnishing goods. Both men are prominently connected with Roachdale's onward march.
The Roachdale News is in its 15th year. In the past six years it has received new life thrsugh the untiring of forts Kf its editors, E. and T. M. Moore. It is a column folio.
Nearly everyone within 15 miles of the town knows genial F. H. Bowen, the hardware man, and those who do not know him are missing it by not getting acquainted. We were surprised to find such a stock of hardware, stoves, implements, wagons, lamps, for Christmas, tinware, guns and ammunition that he has for sale. We were informed that two years ago Mr. Bowen purchased the business of Wendling & Priest, and that he has since increased his floor space to 2,200 feet.
Rev. J. S. Sproul for seven months has been pastor of the Presbyterian church. Ho is an able miinster and his aid in upbuilding the church has been great in the short time he has been here.
One of Roachdale's new industries is the Roachdale Lumber Co., that succeeded J. P. Prather last March. The company is incorporated and the following are its stockholders. A. A. Wil kinson and S. R. Greer, of Indvanapolis, and C. D. Meeker, of this place. Mr. Meeker is treasurer and resident man ager of the company. In addition to their yard they own and operate a planing mill under the able management of Josiah Honnon, who is town clerk of

lioachdale. The company is in I crusted in live yards and owns a mill in Wis onsin and a ware house for sash and doors in'Iudianupolis. Mr. Mocker, the resident manager has had 15 years' experience
the road and is in every
manner a competent overseer, 'vv A. G. Rice started a drug store here nine years ago, and is still hammering away at the old stand. lie carries a comple'e stock of drugs and druggists' sundries, and is accommodating at all times. Mr. Rice has late d'scovered a valuable and sure cure for piles in any form, and is assured much success in its sale.
J. R. .Miller is another druggist who has resided here for 17 years. Ho has followed this business for 20 years. Seventeen years ago he built a brick building on Washington street tor his drug store.JJAt that time every intiab itent made fun of him, saying the town would not grow and that he was too far away from the station.
G. W. Grimes' drug and grocery store has done business here for 7 years. Mr. Grimes has hacdlrfd drugs for 15 years and is a safe compounder of prescrip tions. He deals in drugs, staple and fancy groceries, wall paper, books, stationrry, etc.
Evans & Steinbaughs' livery, feed and sale stable i6 a well| appearing place, and indeed very inviting both for man and bea6t. Mr. Evans came here month ago, and is the first liveryman to occupy the new J. R. Miller brick on east Washington street, which was pur posely erected for this business. Mr Steinbaugh has business interests at Waterman, Ind., that demand his at tention there. Their stock consists of six fresh horses six buggies, one carriage and a roomy sample wagon. They are prepared for every accommodation in their line.
The Roachdale Milling Ccmpany—L. W. George and Wm. Bradford—has been in operation here for 8 years, it is the only fiour mill here and is of full roller process with^a daily average of 35 to 40 barrete. It is noted for its Key stone brand.
S. A. Osborn has lived here three years. For 40 years he has repaired, repainted, and built wagons, carriages and buggies, and has labored as such in fifteen states and their leading factories. It would therefore be useless to go into details concerning his skill, lie is a faithful Baptist and a member of the K. of P. lodge.
J. A. Hicks has run the popular barber shop here for two years, on the north side of Washington street in the .Collier block. Eight years experience has fitted him for careful tonsorial work. W. W. Thorn on, who has been a barber for 23 years, has a-cha'r in the shop. Mr. Hicks is a Red Man and a member of the K. of P.
Seven years ago Enoch Redding purchased the oldest livery barn here. It is located on Indiana street near the railroad junction and south of the new Inman hotel. Last September he sold an interest to W. S. Nicholas thus organizing a t«am of hustlers—prime cood ones. They meet all trains and re found to be the sort of gentlemen that the traveling man enjoys patronizing and for whose accommodations thoy keep two large sample wagons.
Robert T. Young, better known as "Bob" has made his mark here fully as familliar as his name. He ha& harness and rep lir shop, which he has run for two years, in the Payne building, but has had three years previous ex perience at his trade. Ho handles hand made harness, harness sundries, saddles, robes, whips, oils, etc.
