Intered at the Postofiice at Crawfordsville Indiana, as second-class matter,
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9. 1894.
Now that the election is over the people can turn their undivided and enthusiastic attention to a discussion of football.
AN experienced specialist and mathematician has summed up the falling off in wages of American workers, and it reaches the enormous sum of ?1.000,000,000.
"VAMPED by a local vender of falsehoods." Ilow those endearing words must stick in the crop of the gentleman who gave up §50 in printing to the Democratic central committee.
THE best way to appreciate how far the new foot ball rules have eliminated the element of roughness from the game is to read the rules carefully and then refrain from witnessing any foot ball matches.
AN Irishman in AVinsted, Conn., succcded in selling his wool at 8c. the other day, and when asked if he knew what this decline meant, he said: "I do. I voted for free wool, and I came within 8c. of getting it."
PHILADELPHIA business houses are complaining of the poor quality of the postage stamps now put out by the government. They are printed not by contract, as formerly, but by the Bureau of Engravingand Printing.
THERE is a flood-burst of NaDoleonic literature the current issue of monthly periodicals. The passing of a century shows no diminution of interest in the life of the wonderful Corsican who witched the world with his generalship.
TIIE only foundation of political liberty is the spirit of the people: and the only circumstance which makes a lively impression upon their senses and powerfully reminds them of their importance, their power and their rights is the periodical choice of their representatives.
THE Japanese are winning victories now as often as they can find a Chinese army willing to meet them. There has been heavy fighting north of Port Arthur, with the usual result. The Japanese captured' the towns of lvinchow and Solienwan. A naval engagement, of which the details are unknown, occurred Saturday.
THE Republican party has always been for law and order, and Gov. Matthews, in his speeches over the State, has not forgotten to thank it for its united support of his policy in dealing nwith law breakers. While many of his own party papers turned the cold shoulder to him there never was a breath of unfriendly criticism of his course, from any Republican source.
THE November
Forum opens with an
article on "The Politcal Career and Character of David B. Hill," by an anonymous, independent writer who tells for the first time with fullness of detail Senator Hill's whole career. The judgment of him is that his success rests wholly on an artificial basis, and that it has been built up on the most disreputable elements of political society. The writer contends that Senator Hill's prominence in the Democratic party is the worst possible augury for the party—a measure, indeed of the party's danger. It is a notable political essay.
BELLAMY'S co-operation scheme is to be practiced by a colon 3' in Pittsburg. The first building's corner stone was laid yesterday. One member jjives a building lot and receives certificates, the legal tender of the colony, in return: another furnishes building stone: two glass-workers dig the cellar: members will do the work. The colony is known as the Integral Co-operative Association. It expects to build more houses and to go into manufacturing. The products of its plants are the only income of members. Twenty-five cents an hour is fixed as the rate of pay for all classes of labor.

Swamp College wants to know where Number Thirteen is located. The location has long since been given in THE JOURNAL, but for his benefit we will say that it is a lorle school house, save a beauiiful hickory grove, located in Coal Creek township at the turn of the old Pleasant Hill and New Richmond oroad, two miles east of the former place, -now called Wingate. Our territory is bounded on the north by Shawnee prairie, on the West by Wingate, on the feast by New Richmond, and on the south by Bristle Ridge. The Buffalo Ridge scribe having married a wife and gone we take the liberty to resume the old name, Bristle Ridge. Our people are noted for their morrlity and intelligence, thrift and industry. Our land, formerly known as "The oak barrens," consisted of strips of clay interspersed with sloughs. Now we have as good farm land and produce as much of whatever we sow one year with another, and make as few failures in crops of all kinds in the garden, orchard and field as any other part of the county we are sure.

The criticisms of some who have been sanctified with the blood of appointment are severe on those who have sinned against Elijah V. and the Democratic household. Has not any man the right to vote his sentiments and advocate his party? Will not some one weep with us-.'
It is with a feeling of sympathy that we write of Mrs. Alva Hesler losing her eyesight, ller eye has only been afflicted about five weeks and the sight ot one is entirely lost. We learn the attending physician has grave fears for 4.
the other one. We learn she will soon go to Indianapolis to consult a specialist. This is, indeed, a sad case and everyone sympathizes with her.
Several from this section of the country attended the Veedersburg News product show Saturday. The show was a success. The exhibition of farm products would do credit to the county fairs. Mr. Berry, editor of the News, and manager of the show, gave premiums that were worthy of competition. The baby show contest was quite interesting with many babies for inspection.
The country correspondent dips his pen in the ink and writes the news and comments as he sees fit. His comments often are not as warm taffy on a stick to some people who have an air supremacy, and 0I1, holy Moses, when they meet the correspondens they talk as though he (the correspondent) did not have sense enough to know all people were born with equal rights and the U. S. Government granted freedom of the press.
As we have not written since we received the souvenir edition of THE JOURNAL we deem it proper to express our appreciation. After a careful examination we find it a masterly production of literary work. After about six years' experience as a country correspondent and local editor we feel that we are able to judge the literary work, and by careful comparison with the work of well equipped printing ofiic.es we find it a remarkable piece of mechanical work. The papers of this part of the State comment upon it without criticism, but we notice some local correspondents think it would have been increased by adding this thing and another. As far as we are concerned we can speak only piaise. without criticism or suggestion, and congratulate THE JOURNAL COMPANV upon their success. We thank them for remembering us away down here in Fountain county. We know there are many things in Crawfordsville and Montgomery county that are worthy of recognition and a place in it, but then we think of this the size of the book had all of the worthies been recognized and given place. It is far easier to criticise other people's work than to do work beyond criticism.

ltelief in One Day.
South American Nervine relieves the worst cases of Nervous Prostration, Nervousness and Nervous Dyspepsia in a single day. No such relief and blessing has ever come to the invalids of this country. Its'powers to cure the stomach are wonderful in the extreme It always cures it cannot fail. It radically cures all weaknesses of the stomach and never disappoints. Its effects are marvellous and surprising. It gladdens the hearts of the suffering and brings immediate relief. It is a luxury to take and always safe. Trial bottles 15 cents. Sold by Cotton & Rife and Moffett & Morgan.
Common Sense
Should be used in attempting to cure that very disagreeable disease, catarrh. As catarrh originates in impurities of the blood, local applications can do no permanent good. The common sense method of treatment is to purify the blood, and for this purpose there is no preparation superior to Hood Sarsaparilla.
Hood's Pills cure constipation by restoring peristaltic action to the alimentary canal.
The Best Plaster.
Dampen a piece of flannel with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bind it on over the seat of pain. It is better than any plaster. When the lungs are sore such an application on the chest and another on the back, between the shoulder blades will often prevent pneumonia. There is nothing so good for a lame back or a pain in the side. A sore throat can nearly always be cured in one night by applying a flan-nel-bandage dampened with Pain Balm. 50 cent bottles for sale by Nye & Booe, 111 north Washington street.
Bur.klen's Arnica SalTe,
The best salve in the world for Cuts Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rheum Fever Sores, Tetter, Chapped Hands. Chilblains, Corns, and all Skin Eruptions, and positively cures Piles, or no pay required. It is guaranteed t,o give perfect satisfaction or money refunded. Price 25 cents per box. For sale by Cotton & Rife's, the Progress Pharm acy.
Two l.ives Lost.
Mrs. Pheobe Thomas, of Junction City. 111., was told by her doctors she had consumption, and that there was hope for her., but two bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery completely cured her and she says it saved her life. Mr. Thos. Eggers, 130 Florida street, San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching Consumption, tried without result everything- else, then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Discover}'and in two weeks was cured. He is naturally thankful. It is such results, of which these are samples, that prove the wonderful eilicacy of this medicine in Coughs and Colds. Free trial bottles at Cotton it Rife's Progress Pharmacy. Regular si/.e 50c and $1.
"Trust Tliose Who Have Tried." Catarrh causes hoarseness and difficulty in speaking. 1 also to a great extent lost hearing. Ity the use of Ely's Cream Halm dropping of mucus has ceased, voice and hearing have greatly improved.—J. \V. Davidson, Att'y at Law, Monmount, 111.
I used Ely's Cream Balm for Catarrh and have received great benefit. I believe it a safe and certain cure. Very pleasant to take. Wm. Frazer, Rochester, N. Y.
Price if Cream Balm is fifty cents.

A PLUCKY WOMAN
AND WHAT SHE WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH.
She and Her Daughter fiavo a Remarkable Experience.
Slie Was a Hard Working Person and This Will Interest All Workers.
All kinds of diseases and weaknesses leave their marks on the system. It is very easy for the stomach, liver, bowels and kidneys to become deranged, and when they do, the person soon feels tired, languid, weak, lowspirited and gloomy.
The nerves become weak, and insanity or paralysis may follow. The blood gets bad, there is coated tongue, bad taste in mouth, constipation, the complexion grows sallow and life looks dark. All persons complaining of any of these troubles will read with won. der the following letter from Mrs. James Roake. a well known lady living at 145 Washington street, Peekskill, N. V.: "About fifteen years ago I was taken very sick. After seven months I got over that, but have never been well since. I have suffered terribly with pains in the chest, back, kidneys and head. There was a disagreeable feeling in the eyes and I would be very sick in the morning. "My mind was always gloomy and I felt very low spirited. I had terrible numb spells aud would have to be rubbed some time before I could get around. Some of these numb spells were so severe my friends thought I would not recover from them. "I tried doctors and medicines but got no better. Finally I began the use of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, as my husband had been most miraculously cured by it. After using it a short time there was a most .wonderful improvement.
MRS. JAM ICS HOAKK.
"1 continued to steadily gain in every respect until I was cured of all these terrible ailings. This wonderful medicine has now cured my husband and myself of the most fearful suffering, but this was not all. I now want to tell about my little girl. "She has neve been well since she was born. No doctors have known just what ailed her. She was out of her mind most of the time and had constant pain in her side. She has had spasms continually, from six to seven a month. "She is the smallest child for her age that can be found. All medicine could do nothing for her until I gave her Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and then she was cured in a short time. I cannot say enough in praise of this wonderful medicine, it has done so much for me and my family. 1 heartily advise everybody to take it."
If you have any of these complaints or for any reason don't feel just as well as »you want to, take Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy and you will be made well and strong, positively cures all such complaints.
All physicians recommend it, as it is the discovery and prescription of the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases. Dr. Greene, of 3C West 14th street, New York City. He can be consulted free, personally or by letter.
Positive and Negative.
The Race Question is unsettled. But it is settled that Hood's Sarsaparilla leads all remedies.
Disease marches through all lands. Hut good health blesses all who take llood's Sarsaparilla.
Dyspepsia is a great foe of the human race. But Hood's Sarsaparilla puts it to fight.
Scrofula is one of the most terrible of diseases. But llood's Sarsaparilla expels it from the system.
The people of this day, like Job, suffer from boils. But Hood's Sarsaparilla is a sovereign remedy for them.
Catarrh is one uf the most disagreeable disorders. But Hood's Sarsaparilla is sure to relieve and cure it.
Rheumatism racks the system like a thumb-screw. But it retreats before the power of Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Loss of appetite leads to melancholia. But Hood's Sarsaparilla makes the plainest repast tickle the palate.
Life is short and time is fleeting, but Hood's Sarsaparilla will bless humanity as the ages roll on.
