THE Brazil Democrat has announced the candidacy of Senator tleorge A. Ryrd for Congress before the nextDemocratic convention. This announcement will serve to bring out other candidates, and notice is given that Mr. Brookshire must fight for a renomination. As our Congressman is more of a politician, tban a statesman his opponents must do some lively hustling if they succeed in Bending him to grass. That public building bill has a deeper meaning than appears on the surface.

REPUBLICANS all over the country will rejoice that John Sherman is to succeed himself as Senator from Ohio. At the Republican caucus held last evening he received fifty-three votes to thirty-eight cast for ex-Governor Foraker. When he completes his Senatorial term to which Mr. Sherman is soon to be elected he will have Berved forty-four years of honorable public service. He is one of the leading statesmen of the times, and his services could illy be spared to the country which he has served so long and with finch distinguished ability.

NEXT Saturday, January 9, the Republican township conventions will bo held. The purpose of the conventions is to select committeemen for each precinct in the county and to choose delegates to attend the distiict convention at Terre Haute on the 21st, inst. The object of the Terre Haute convention is to name a member of the Stato Central Committee. Every Republican should make it his business to attend his township meeting next Saturday and choose men for committeemen who will not only accept the position but will agree to work after they have been thus honored.

SAM HAHUIN and Basil Ledgerwood, who pleaded guilty to being accomplices in the burning of the Daviess county court hou&e last October, were brought before Judge Heffron yesterterday on a plea for arrest of judgment.

The trial of Lavelle and Hawes as principals will come up at Petersburg, Pike county, in March. This sentence of the accessories has caused quite a commotion iu the cam]).

The School Apportionment. Supt Zuck is in receipt of the statement of the school apportionment for the ensuing year. The several counties of the State paid in $5)72,371.75. This sum was levied upon them according to their wealth and then apportioned out again according to the number of children of a school age in the counties. Montgomery county paid in $18,011.24 and took out $14,485.71. This shows then we have more money than children, a very desirable state of affairs surely. There are in this county 11,777 children between the ages of six and twenty-one. The apportionment per capita is therefore $1.23. There are only eight coun-1 ties in the State that pay mor& money into the treasury than Montgomery and no one make? a better comparative' showing, The l\\ 0 counties making the worst comparative showing aro Brown and LaPorte, the latter because alhough having two j6oil sized cities iu it draws out as much as it puts in.

Death of John Hamilton.

It is necessary to record the death of another one of Montgomery county's early settlers and most honored citizens. John Hamilton died Tuesday afternoon at 1:0 at his home near Bowers, of paralysis. About six months ago ho was paralyzed on one side and last Monday he received a stroke on the otherjside. The funeral occurred Thursday at Bethel church near his home. Ho was 65 years old and leaves a wife and six children. Among them are Gil

Hamilton, editor of the Thorntown An/us, and Ed Hamilton, amerohant at Bowers. The deceased haB been a Republican ever since the birth of the party and also a member of the Methodist church. He settled in this county when quite young, and has always been distinguished as an energetic and shrewd farmer. He has for many years lived on the present homestead, a valuable place of 300 acree.

Wabash Oolleee Got 640 Acres. The previous statement that Wabash College was to receive 1,400 acres of land from the estate of Jacob M. Harmon, in Warren county, ia incorrect as to the number of acres going to the college. The 1,400 acres were involved in the suit, and Wabash College's portion was but 640 acres, the balance going to two heirs. This 640 acres is valued at 825 per acre, which would amount to $9,600.

that fascii.ate men. In amiability of character he was the peer of the best of earth, and all that was lovable in human nature was exemplified in Tom Ward. Though an uncompromising Democrat, he was elected Judge in a county easily controlled by the opposition, and won a seat in Congress over that distinguished Republican, Godlove S. Ortb, overcoming a large Republican majority by the sheer force of personal popularity. His ability on the bench, before a jury, and in the House of Representatives was unquestioned. No better lawyer than Ward ever lived in the Wabash region, the bar of which would stand comparison with any in the Union. His great ability as an advocate was clearly shown in several intricate contested election cases during his Congressional career. But his learning was not confined to his profession. Ho was a superb scholar, familiar with many languages, and a more omniverous reader never lived. I actually believe he had read nearly every book in the Congressional Library.

THE KANSAS TROUBLES.

State Troops Keach tlio Scent of t.lie Lata Tragedy. AKKAI.ON, Kan., Jan. 7.—At IMS

Wednesday Adjt. Gen. Roberts reached here with seventy-five soldiers under the immediate command of Col. Rickseeker, of Sterling. He brought four days' rations for his com puny and made arrangements for more supplies to come by rail. The intention of Gen. Roberts is to assist the duly authorized authorities in the execution of the law. He is not here, he says, to take anybody's part on any sfde.

At Minola word was received that the AVoodsdale people had taken possession of the courthouse at Springfield, and that Judge llutkin was at Arkalon waiting for reinforcements to help him open court. At Mead it was found that Hodkin had asked that town for help, chiefly in the way of arms. It will be remembered that his iirst telegram to the governor was not for troops, but for arms. Judge Botkin and his followers were awaiting the arrival of the train, all armed with Winchesters. Judge l'.otkin carried also a big sixshunter in his cartridge belt and many others were similarly armed. liotkin'.s first speech to Adjt. Gen. Roberts is that he want. 1 arms. lie would rather have fifty armed and mounted deputies. he said, than all the militiamen in Kansas. l'.otkin wired the governor again to send 100 stands of arms. He also wants the troop* kept here three weeks and the county placed under martial law. Gen. Roberts has telegraphed the governor for instructions on this point.

Gov, Humphrey sent a dispatch to Judge Botkin Wednesday niglit in which he says: "If the civil authorities are unable to serve warrants for the arrrest of parties properly charged with the killing of Dunn, Gen. Roberts will aid them. The military must at all times be held subordinate to the civil authiMty." The governor also sent a dispatch to Gen. Roberts in which he declared that the state would not place any arms in the hands of Hotkin's gang of deputy sheriffs. If the guns were furnished Hotkin would arm his partisans and begin a war of extermination. r:.'"
