Special Announcement.

As an inducement to incraaee the circulation of the WEEKLY JOURNAL we will send during the coming year to each subscriber who renews his subscription end to all new subscribers the Farmers' Friend, one of the best agricultural and fireside papers in the country. It has 16 large pages, is issued twice a month, and is devoted exclusively to agriculture and literary matters. The price of the "WEEKLY JOURNAL including the frarviers* Friend, is $1.25. All new subscribers are entitled to receive THE JOCRN^L the remainder of the year free.

THERE would be one advantage to the country if Harrison instead of Blaine were nominated and elected, and that is botk of these great men would continue in their patriotic work at Washington.

FREE coinage versus sound money, tree trade against protection and reciprocity, Cleveland or Hill against Blainst or Harrison—on any or all of these issues tie Republioan party can boldly go int tne campaign of 1892.

THB Indianapolis News says that President Harrison and Maj. McKinley both sneered at people who wear cheap coats. Some people are so constituted that, from the mere force of habit, they must keep on misrepresenting things even when the truth would better serve their purpose.

IT may console those who have passthrough a visitation of the grip to now that a prominent physician of Vienna declares that the disease is distinctly miasmatic in character, is infectious, and probably contagious. But he fails to tell us of a specific for the disease.

IN.1890, says the New York Mail and Express, during the month of October, the imports of eggs into the United Stated amounted to 1,262,892 dozen, valued at $212,384. In 1891, during the same month, our imports of eggs amounted to 734,940 dozen, valued at $102,629. Thus, in one month, protec Jon saved to our farmers $109,629. li

DB. HUNTSINGER,of Frankfort, a noted oculist who makes regular visits to this city, has discovered a remedy for the cure of the alcohol, opium and tobacco &abit which promises to rival the famous Keeley oure in effectiveness. The experiments made are entirely satisfactory For ten years he has been testing his discovery in his private practice and it is said there has never been a failure recorded. So well satisfied is he of its EQOCOBS that he has made public announcement of the fact. r~

A DISTINCTION WITH A DIFFERENCE. THE editor of the Crawi'ordsville JOURNAL has undertaken the very diflicult task of showing "the difference between reciprocity and free trade." After he splits hairs awhile he will come to the conclusion that the distinction is without a difference.—Frankfort Crexantt.

When the recipioc'tv feature of the McKinley bill was enacted into law, the Crcscenf, with the whole Democratic press denounced it as a fraud, but now that the policy is an assured success the whole free trade press change their tactics and come to the conclusion that there is no difference between free trade and reciprocity. The difference can be illustrated in a practical way. A few years ago, coffee was placed on the free list for the benefit of the consumers. No international engagements were ever entered into, and consequently no concessions were made to American exports in return. Brazil and other coffee producing countries immediately clap])ed an export duty on coffee. American consumers lost the benefit of a cheaper coffee supply. Congress had merely succeeded in transferring a large source of revenue from the United States to Brazil. That was the free trade way of dealing with the question—giving away a free market and enabling foreign countries to incrsase their revenues. The reciprocity method is more practical. It involves enlargement of the foreign market for American exports as the indisputable Condition of retention of a free market in the United States. It cheapens the imported food supply and at the same time secures large compensating advantages for American products and manufactures. A man who cannot see the difference between free trade and reciprocity is so blind that he prefers darkness to the light.

THE OLD YEAR.

"Toll ye the church bell sad and slow. And tread softly and speak slov For the Old Year lies n-dylng."

To the reflective mind the last hours of the year are prolific of deep emotion, not so much because another link is about to drop out of the chain of life not that the end of life is nearer, but because of the wealth of pleasant, bright, and sweet associations that bind the heart to the dying year. "'Tis greatly wise to talk with our past hours, to ask them what report they bore to heaven, and how they might have borne more welcome news." No other day is so fitting as this for a serious talk with the past no other day so fitting for good resolutions. When THE JOURNAL again greets its readers the old year will have gone to the years beyond the Hood, and anew year big with promise, bright with hope, will have come to take its place. It will find the people of Crawfordsville and Montgomery county the most favored community on the face of the globe, for they live in the best little city and county of the freest, happiest, most self-reliant, and prosperous land that the sun visits in his daily round.

THE fact that the farmers are holding their crops for better prices and are not forced to crowd them on the market in order to realize upon them as early as possible, pioves, too, that their circumstances are better than they have been for several years preceding.—Indianapolis Neics.

A year ago the News told us the McKinley bill would greatly oppress the farmers and retard the prosperity of the country. Maj. McKinley predicted that at the end of a year from the time the new tariff went into operation the circumstances of the farmer would be better than they had been for many years preceding. The only mistake the Major made was, as the News informs us, the better times for the farmer came sooner than anybody predicted they would.

We wish to call the attention of the public to our Sanitarium at Crown Point, Indiana. We are organized for the treatment of Drunkenness and the Morphine or Opium habits. Our methods of treatment are not an experiment, but a pronounced and unrivalled success. Our cures are positive, effective, and radical, no matter how hopeless or desperate the

may seem. Our treat­

ment at once obliterates the pernicious effects of alcohol, opium, and other nar cotics, upon the nervouB system, and destroys the appetite and craving for these drugs. In two weeks' time, we can do more for the unfortunate inebriate or opium user, than can be don© for him elsewhere on earth. We cap eliminate the deadly narcotic from the system destroy the craving for it, and restore him to his family and friends per fectly cured in mind and body. There are homes all over the land in which joy and happiness would reign supreme in place of depression and mortification on account on account of some member of the family being addicted to the liquor or opium habit. To all such, we send greeting with the glad tidings that we have established a resort where they will be cured and the morbid desire ef fectuallv eradicated. In half the time and at half the expense we can do more for a man than can be done for him elsewhere in the world.

We will cheerfully furnish printed matter, references and other information on application.

Bills' Eccentricities.

Bill Stein was taken to the insane asylum at Indianapolis Thursday afternoon for treatment. Stein was released from the asylum several months ago as cured but last Saturday he engaged in bloody fight with Wes Foster, and was so worked up that he went off the handle again. His delusions hatfe been very numerous and he has a new one every few hours. Wednesday morning he hunted over his cell for two hours looking for a pump that would spout hickory nuts and lemonade and for-get-me-not in it. Later ho tore up his clothes to feed the spotted wild boy, and along toward evening he fancied that he was Miss Mary Livermore feeding the chickens on the Chicago board of trade. Thursday he fancied himself to be immensely wealthy, having made a fortune on his patent pickle puncher. He stood out at the Big Four station and announced that he intended to buy the whole United States as soon as he arrived in Indianapolis. He further announced to the crowd that gathered around that he intended to turn the entire government over to the women and allow them to run it for about a hundred years in order that they might put a stop to base ball and church socials. When the train arrived be wanted to ride the cow catcher in order to beat the cars into Indianapolis, but officer Grimes concluded that he had Ijtter go over in the smoker.

Death of Mrs. Ulara A. fchipp. Mrs. Clara A. Shipp, aged 34 years, died Thursday morning at 9 o'clock at the residence of H. P. Ensminger,on east Main street. Mrs. Shipp was taken with the grip about a year ago and uever recovered from its effects. The _rmation of an abscess was, however, the direct cause of her death. The funeral will occur Saturday afternoon at two o'clock, K. J. Cunningham officiating, assisted by Rev. G. P. Fuson.

Mrs. Clara Austin Nicholson was born here on May 11, 1852, and here passed her life. On February 14, 1876, she was married to James T. Shipp, and one son, Floyd, now aged 13, was born to her. Mrs. Shipp had an exceedingly large circle of friends and acquaintances in Crawfordsville who will profoundly mourn her loss. She was possessed of a beautiful and a Christian character, being a consistent member of the Center Presbyterian church. She was possessed of a rare and sympathetic nature which made her loved and admired by all with whom she came in contact. The manly little son whom she leaves behind has the sympathy of all in his terrible bereavement, and no better wish could be for him than that he may grow up possessed of the many beautiful traits of character which ennobled the sweet lady whose soul passed out with the dying year. frl*

SLAIN BY HIS MEN.

Gen. Garcia, Leader of the Mexican Forces, Killed.

A Blow to tli« Government. Gen. Garcia was one of the most prominent and efficient officers in the Mexican anny, and his death at the present time is a serious blow to the government. The private soldiers in the Mexican army are nearly all convicted criminals who, instead of being given a term in prison, are sentenced to serve with the military. They are desperate characters and are nearly all secret sympathizers with the revolutionary movement. ic ut, to Deitli by Garza.

LAHKDO. Tex., Dec. HI.—The report comes to this city that Garza Wednesday afternoon captured a detachment of forty-five Mexican troops with their arms and equipments. The officers, fcur in number, were promptly shot, and the men were given the chance to go free without arms or to join the revolutionary forces. They chose the latter, ifo official news has been received of the occurrence. Hut if Garza had 150 men together, as was acknowledged by the official telegrams a few days since, he might easily capture forty regulars.

A lliittle Imminent.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Dec. 31.—A battle will probably be fought on Texas soil within twenty-four hours between a handful of United States troops on one side and a vastly superior force of Garza's revolutiorfists on the other. A dispatch received Wednesday morning by Gen. David S. Stanley from William B. Wheeler, who is temporarily in command at Fort Ringgold during the absence of Capt. John G. Bourke, who is in the field, contains the startling. that Capt Bourke,' 78 miles from Fort has just sent word to the courier that Capt. Garza has united 250 of his men 13 miles north of the Lopiena ranch, and the revolutionist leader and his followers are desperate, and will fight

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Dec. 31.—News was received here late Tuesday night that Gen. (Jarcia, in command of the troops in the field in the northern zone of Mexico, with headquarters at Mier, had been murdered by his command and that the entire force, numbering several hundred men, under his immediate comma nd, had gone over to the side of the revolutionists, crossing over into Texas in a body at a point between Roma and Carrizo. The news of the killing of Garcia lias been confirmed.

troop of thirty-four men at Peneno, and an effort was also made to get word to Troop G, which should be at Carrizo with forty men. Second Lieut. George T. Langhorne, who has twenty-six men with him, is also ordered to proceed at once to join Capt Bourke. Gen. Stanley stated that he thought a fight would ensue within the next twenty-four hours between tlie United States troops and the revolutionists.

Odd8*th Garu'i Favor.

The Garza men in the section around Fort Ithiggold outnumber the United States troops five to one, and are in a country friendly to the revolutionists. The United States troops are much superior to the Garza men in discipline, but the latter are well armed and it is feared the result of an engagement would be disastrous to the Americans. The telegraph wires between Fort Ringgold and Brownsville gave out Wednesday and no more official in formation was received here concerning the situation. The nearest available telegraph station to Capt. Bourke's forces is Laredo, a distance of 130 miles.

An interview with a United States marshal just in from the field of Garza's operations shows there is certainly a large force with Garza, and that in one of Garza's detachments which Capt Hardie followed there were
