ARTHUR A. MCCAIN.

Subscribed and sworn to before the undersigned this 16th day^ Noovem^er.m5t Notary Public.

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 22, 1895.

REV. J. E. NEWHOUSE, who for fifty years has been a preacher of the gospel, most of the time in the Northwest Indiana Conference, died at his home in Greencastle yesterday, of paralysis.

THE annual report of Commissioner Lochren shows that there were 909,544 pensioners on the rolls June 30, a net increase duriDg the year of 800. The estimated amount needed for pension payments next year is $140,000,000, a small decrease as compared with the appropriation for this year. The cowardly reduction of pensions under Hoke Smith's orders is responsible for the decrease.

JOHN SHERMAN relates in his book that in July, 1879, he visited bis farm near Mansfield, and there gave utterance to an expression which has since become a common term in politics. In answer to a serenade from his neighbors he said that he had come "home "purely on business—to repair my fences and look after neglected property." His reference was to the fences on his farm, which he had found in a sadly dilapidated state, but the newspapers gave it a political significance, and since then, as he says, '•every politician enga?ed in strengthening his position is said to be 'mending his fences/"

THAT was a great meeting of Republicans at Indianapolis yesterday. They came from all parts of the State in such numbers that the gathering assumed much the appearance of a State convention. The object of the meeting was not to map out a plan of campaign or to formulate a policy, but to come together, exchange greetings, rejoice over recent victories and have a good time. The appearance of the venerable Richard W. Thompson, who had been selected to preside, was the signal for cheers and loud applause. Although nearly eighty-six years old his mind is as clear as a bell and his voice as sonorous and musical as it was twenty-five years ago. Bis speech was not only electrical but it was inspiring. All the speeches that followed were of the same character. They were made by the solid Chambers, the magnetic Fairbanks, the fluent Johnson, the eloquent Watson, the accomplished Nelson, the wheelhorse Cumback, the gifted Griffiths, the witty Landis, and others none the less renowned, eloquent and able. The candidates were numerous, sauve and engaging. On the Presidency there was but one sentiment, and that was in favor of 15en Harrison. Altogether it was good for a Republican to be there, and its influence for good will extend to the ends of the State. There should be more of the same kind.

THE DUTY OF COXGKESS.

There should be no two opinions as to what should be the Republican policy at the approaching session of Cougress. The country is confronted with a condition, not a theory. The condition is that under the Democratic tariff the government is in a financial hole. It is running behind in its current expenses at the rate of So,000,000 a month, or §00,000,000 a year. To meet this deficiency it has been the policy of the Democratic party to issue bonds. Three issues have already been made,—one for 850,000,000, another for 850,000.000, and another for 862,500,000. This has increased the annual interest charge to 87,000,000. This ought to be sufficient to damn the Gorman law as well as the party that enacted it. But this is not all the damage that has been done the country by this infamous and unpatriotic law. The practical workings of the law has set the balance of trade against the United Scates. It has increased the imports and decreased the exports. That is, we buy more and sell less. Everybody knows what it means when a man buys more than lie sells. It means that he is on the road to bankruptcy. It now requires S30.000,000 in gold a year to settle this balance with foreign countries. And still these are not the worst features of the Gorman law, bad as they are. The loss of business to the country as shown by the clearing house reports that since the law went into effect has been over §10,000,000,000, the most deplorable part of which is that laboring people have had to stand about one half of this loss. In view of these facts the Republican policy should plan its work on Republican lines. A tariff bill should be passed, including the reciprocity features of the McKinley law, that will not only produce sufficient revenue for the needs of the government, but to afford protection to oi farmers and manufacturers. What the people want is a return of the prosperity that they were enjoying in 1892. The new Congress has a mandate from the people that this must be done. This mandate is peremptory in favor of a protective policy. Congress should do its duty regardless of what the President may do. If he vetoes a bill that will yield revenue and thus prevent another bond issue, upon him and his party must rest the responsibility.

SECRETARY CARLISLE, in his New York Chamber of Commerce speech took grounds in favor of retiring the 8346,000,000 of greenbacks and saddling this amount on the country in the form of a bonded debt. This would take out of the hands of the people that much of their circulation and place it in the hands of bondholders upon which they would receive interest. Should Congress attempt to contract the currency to this extent there would go up a mighty howl among the people. While it may be admitted that the greenbacks area forced loan to the people whi.ch bear no interest, yet they are a popular form of currency, and they cannot be retired without a loud protest. The Secretary's speech but foreshadows the President of what he will recommend in his message to Congress. The trouble with both the Secretary and the President is that they have wrongly diagnosed the case. The patient is suffering from an overdose of Wilson-Gorman-Brice tariff, and Doctors Carlisle and Cleveland desire to treat it for currency tuberculosis which does not exist.

A True Friend.

The rtriend who holds a mirror to my face, And, hiding none, is not afraid to trace My faults, my smallest blemishes within, Who friendly warns, reproves me if I sin— Although it seems not so—he is my friend.

But lie who, ever flattering, gives me praise, Who ne'er rebukes, nor censures, nor delays To come with eagerness and grasp my

hand

And pardon me ere pardon I demand, He is my enemy, although he seem my friend. —From the German.

He Kept Hia Vow.

"I offer thee my hand and heart," said he. "Ah, no I Your wealth is not enough for me. Guy Havelock is a better man than thou." In anguish Jack replied: "Thenhear my vow. I swear by yonder marvelous dog star, I swear by—thee, so near and yet so far, If thou refuseth me I die." He ceased. The dog star winked and vanished in the east. "Thy oath is naught to me," the maiden cried.

Pull forty autumns passed, and then he died. —Occident.

Last Saturday was a day long to be membered by the school teachers of this township. The township institute was in session that day at Ynuntsvjlle. The session had began, without gloomy and discouraging, within sunshine and encouragement. Trustee Gilkey was in the chair, and the beaming smiles and pleasaut countenance like .Judas of old, betrayed the knowledge within, that something of particular importance, which was eager to be set free was in waiting for us. Everything moved along until the noon hour. The surprise must out. An invitation is given for the teachers to call at Mrs. Sweeney's. Now, our trustee's smiles are changed to realities, to their surprise they found before them the table spread with all that one could wish. The table with Brother Brown at the head, was held down by the following teachers. C. A. Weller, C. S. Fink, Ed Graham, Miss Harpel, W.. E. White, MissHanna, Miss Alta Griest, E. A. Cunningham, Miss Lulu Munns, Miss Coleman, Byron Sweeney and Trustee S. H. Gilkey. Everything was arranged in artistic shap$ and all went away feeling that it was a day never to be forgotten. The following resolutions were adopted by the teachers in their afternoon session.

WHEREAS, We the teachers of Ripley township have been so sumptuously entertained at the home of Mrs. Sweeney and

WnERKAS, we feel ourselves placed under deep and lasting obligations for the hospitality extended to us by her. Therefore be it

Resolved, That we, as a body, extend to her a vote of thanks, as a slight token of our appreciation of the favor and be it farther

Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the secretary's books.
