A CHANQE OF OWNERSHIP. After Monday last our connection as editor and proprietor of THE CRAW
FORDSVILLE REVIEW closed. We have
disposed of the paper and all its appur-
tances to E. A. Cunningham and Wit. E. Honkel, who henceforward will con
trol its destiny.
After a continuous manageaent of
near fourteen years it is somewhat of a satisfaction to lay down the pen and
recuperate for a season. While we may
have committed errors in our career, as do all, we can say that above all we
have aimed to ivpre?ent democratic
principle*: as we understood them, and
have always desired to be sincere in our advocacy of ihem. To those kind
friends in Montgomery county who have
sustained ue iu the management of THE
REVIEW we cannot but always feel
grateful to them, and our last wish to
thorn !s that their lines may fall in pleasant places, and in the language of
Rip VanWinkle, may they live long and prosper.
Under the new management aany new improvements and additions to the
plant will be made, among them the
iseuing of a daily democratic newspaper,
which doubtless will and should com
mand the patronage of the busineEB
men of Crawfordsville as it will be made acceptable in every seLse.
In Mr. A. B. Cunningham the public
will recognize a former editor of THE REVIEW, but who has not been engaged
in editorial work for several years. lie
wields a trenchant pen, is a reliable democrat and his work we feel assured
will please the supporters of the paper.
THE REVIEW has been an advocate of
demoaratic principles for near three score years, and is entitled to the united
support of the party. It has not been fickle .and time-serving as has been
many who boast so loudly of their ad
herence to democratic principles. Trust
ing and believing that THE REVIEW under its new ownership will receive the support of all sincere democrats of the county, and the patronage of business men for its value to them as a business medium, we bid our readers farewell. F. T. LUSE.
THE proposition of Representative Barlowe that "we are the law makers and can do as we please have an hundred pages if we want them," uttered in open session of the House, is a straw showing the imperialistic tendencies of the Republican party. It will crop out once in a while through the medium of some blatherskite like Barlowe, who knows barely enough to know noth ing. If the Republican party desires to hide the object for which it was concoived, it should bar men from its councils, who know no more than to talk out loud in the presence of the press. In twenty years from now, at the present rate of proceedure, and the lines of battle will be drawn on American soil (between Democracy and Cassarism very sharply—expansion as the word is used does not mean annexation of contiguous territory, and pressing it into a whole, but a system of colonization, military despotism, embroilment in foreign imbroglios, carpet baggery, worse than that of the palmy days of Moses and
Chamberlain, thousands of precious lives sacrificed to civilize a lot of Asiatic mongrels. But then as Barlow announced "we make the laws and can do anything we please." There is no doubt but "ye are the people, and wisdom dies when ye die." Job saw through the fallacy of Zopher's advice long ages ago. Why should the American people be eo dull at tbis time?
Mit. BARLOWE. of Hendricks county, is ne of the statesmen who will probably retire from active operations in the field of legislation after the present session ends. He voted for Steele, with half of the couaty clamoring for Taylor, and the other half equally divided between Posey and Beveridge. When his term ends he will be a statesman out of a job.
THE
loss of the naptha launch, Paul
Jones, is now an assured fact, and all on boaVd her found a grave in the ocean's maw. The people of Indiana extend their sympathy to Mayor Taggart, of Indianapolis, whose daughter was one of the victims. ....
FIXING THE STANDARD. The house committee on coixage, weights and measures by a strictly party vote, has ordered a substitute for the Hill bill fixing the standard of vilue in the United States. The provisions ot the bill are that the 6tandurd shull tie 1 the uoltf dollar that all contracts now existing or to be oiade in tho future, shall be computed on tbat and that there shall be a department of issue and redumption that greenbacks shall be retired, iind «old bills pubstiiu tuted therefor. No u:ob6i'ver dollars shall be coined, save from the bullion now on hand. It is lett in the discre-1 tion of the Secretary of the Treasury to coin or not coin silver bullion into subsidary coin. A bi-metallic featured was embodied in an amendment by Mr. Bland, but it was vottd down by a party vote of 6 to 8. The bill will be passed with all possible vigor, and if enacted into a law, there will be no end of failures, as a result. Men cannot' pay existing debts contracted under the old syptetn, under such a regime. 1'hey are bound to go to the wall. Yet love, ly is the idea of honest money an a gold standard.
THE defeat of the Agricultural-Pub-lic-School Instruction bill was a sad blow to Governor Mount. This was his pet among the bills. It was that which was thought worthy of a few inches of valuable space in his annual message. It was a theory over which he had 6pent as much time as Nickum on hi6 perpetual light. But it seems that he could no more convince the Solons of the Indiana Legislature that it was at it was "cracked up" to be, than Nickum can convince capital that his light is not a first class fraud. He o'ight stand the defeat of his cherished, long-nursed bill calmly, but when characterized by members of the Legislature as an "old female ti.ao who ought to wear a sun-bonnet" this is too much. But no matter tbe children of tho public schools of the State will r.ot I be compelled to listen to agricultural instructions from a lot of schojl niurins who could not tell a Colorado potato beetle from a chipmunk.

It is plain enough that the question of price levels is one of the relation of money volume to commodities. We can therefore have which price level we choose, that of dollar wheat, 50 cont corn, 10 cent cotton, and soon, or the other level of 50 ccnt wheat, 25 cent corn, 5 cent cotton, etc. Either of those planes of prices can be easily enough secured. One, that represented by 50 ccnt wheat, 5 cent cotton, is the gold plane of prices the other, that indicated by dollar wheat, 10 cent cotton, etc., is the bimetallic plane. With gold the sole measure it is impossible to have high or higher prices. On the contrary, prices must go lower as gold appreciates, or grows dearer, as it is doing now all the time.
With money supply left, as before 1873, to come from the mines of both gold and silver, we would undoubtedly have in time a range of prices approximating that which prevailed from 1850 to 1873. But the gold men say that low prices are not an evil. That may or may not be true, but falling prices are an evil always, for they not only increase burdens, but they impede production and imperil business enterprise. Moreover, low prices are an evil, if with low prices debts are to bo paid which were created when prices were high, for then earnings are unjustly taken from those who are entitled to thorn and turned over to those who have no right to them. It is often claimed, too, that when prices fall what one buys costs less, and therefore no one is hurt. But iu the first place debts and taxes and many other things do not change with prices, and consequently more of everything is required to pay the same debts, taxes and many other things after prices have fallen.
Again, things do not go down evenly Products go first professional services, cost of education and things that can be controlled by monopolies follow slowly. Then, again, producers sell in the wholesale market and buy in the retail market, and prices in the retail market often remain up long after wholesale prices have gone down. Hence, in any view of the question falling prices work injustice to all producers, and most of all perhaps to the great agricultural class. Great solicitude is manifested in high places about the depreciation of currency, but what about the depreciation of everything else The currency at best in not more than 3 per ccnt of the entire wealth of this country.
Is it nothing to have wheat, cotton, goods of all kinds—all the products of labor—all the things that must go to buy money and iv debts and taxes and in the end labor itself depreciate as we have seen them go down since 1873? Ask the question of yourselves and your neighbors, Under which condition would this country be most prosperous, one with a general range of prices indicated by dollar wheat, 50 cent corn, 25 cent wool, 10 cent cotton and labor and other things in proportion or one with wheat 50 cents, corn 25, wool 1214, cotton 5 and labor and other things ranged on that scale Well, as we have shown, the difference is one of money supply and nothing else. Wo cannot have the Liglier range of prices with only gold '.nd bank promises to pay gold for currency.' There is no getting away from ihe fact that the basis of oui money systc.u must be broadened by adding silver to gold if we would have a higher range of prices for our products or if we would prevent a further fall of prices. This is the only way, too, to provide a sound and stable currency. A. J. WARNER.
NOT A BIMETALL1ST.
McKlnley Haa Gone Over to the Sopport of the Gold Standard.
The acts and utterances of the president since his inauguration show conclusively that he has gone over bodily to the support of the gold standard and that with him bimetallism is merely a reminiscence. He has decided that "whatever the language of the contract the United States will discharge all of its obligations in currency recognized as the best throughout the world at the time of payment." This simply means that no matter what the agreement may have been, our bonds and other obligations must be paid in gold. He has in effect officially declared in a message to congress that the standard silver dollar is redeemable in gold, and in the face of his oft repeated declarations that all of our present currency should be kept in circulation he has suggested the advisability of impounding the greenbacks as they find their way into the treasury and only paying them out in exchange for gold. He has even gone so far as to urge upon congress in a special message a so called reformation of the currency on the lines recommended by the Indianapolis currency convention, which, as every one knows, was a gold standard assemblage without reservation, and made the maintenance of the gold standard the first article of its creed.

Dig down to the cause to your eickneBs. if you want to get well and stay well. Most likely it's indigestion. The irritiiting poisons of fermenting, putrid food-) left in the stomach by indigestion, cause headache, neuralgia, nervousness, dizziness, stomachache, nausea, irritability and all the other well known symptoms of indigestion.
Tbey also cause many pains and disorders which are often laid to other causes and hence are not easily cured But as soon as the poisoon are removed, all these symptoms 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.
