PABAMOUNT COMMISSIONER BLOUNT seems to have gotHost in the shuffle.

OjriiY fourteen more months of Grover, treasury deficits and bond issues.

THE Democratic party has shown that it has no constructive capacity, but its obstructive ability is monumental.

OKLAHOMA has 275,000 inhabitants and is knocking at the doors of Congress for admission as a State in the Unio:*. She will probably be the forty-sixth.

CARLISLE may cook his accounts, but all the culinary arts will never change the fact that a man who spends two cents can't get along on an income of one cent.

REPUBLICANS, remember you are to hold your township and precinct meetings on January 11. At the township meetings delegates will be selected to attend the District, convention to be held at Frankfort ton January 21, to select a member of the State Central Committee. At the precinct meetings precinct committeemen will be chosen who will be members of the County Central Committee. The county committee will meet on January 18, to organize, at which time the chairman will be chosen.

EX-PBCSIDENT BENJAMIN HARBISON will discuss "The Presidential Office" very comprehensively in his "This Country of Ours" series, in the forthcoming February Ladies' Home Journal. He will detail the provisions and methods of electing a Chief Magistrate, "and will have much to say bearing upon the eligibility of a President for re-election will give his views as to the length of the Presidential term, and express rather decided opinions relative to the annoyance to which Presidents are subjected from office-seekers. The article is practical, based upon experience and observation, and is very timely. General Harrison believes that the fears (expressed by the framers of our Constitution) that the power of the office is such as to enable an ambitious incumbent to secure an indefinite succession of terms have never been realized. "In practice the popular opinion has limited the eligibility of the President to one re-election. But some of our leading and mo6t thoughtful public men have challenged the wisdom of the four--year term, and have advocated six years, usually- accompanied with a prohibition of a second term. And un less some method can be devised by which a less considerable part of the four-year term must be given to hearing applicants for office and to making appointments, it would be wise to give the President, by extending the time, a better chance to show what he can for the country. It must be admitted, also, that ineligibility to a second term will give to the Executive action greater independence. It seems unlikely, however, that any change in the Presidential term will be made unless some unexpected event should stir into action a thought that is now of a theoretical rather than a practical cast."

FOB GOVERNOR.

Hon. James A. Mount returned from Indianapolis Wednesday evening, where he had been in attendance at the annual meetings of the several industrial boards of which he is a member. After consulting with a number of friends in different parts of the State in regard to his gubernatorial -candidacy and the encouragement he received, many of whom were urgent in pressing a favorable response, he has concluded to shie his caster in the ring, and so announced to THE JOURSAL yesterday his formal entrance in the race. In regard to his qualifications to fill the exalted position of /Governor there can be no question. His eminent abilities are well known throughout the State, having made

several canvasses both as a speaker be--'ore Farmers' Institutes and as a political campaigner. His services have been in demand in both capacities for nany years, and the enthusiasm with jvbich he is everywhere received is a token that his nomination will be bailed with satisfaction by the rank ind file of the "plain people." Mr. tiount served three years as a private soldier in the Seventy-second Indiana regiment, and was in all the marches, skirmishes and battles of this famous organization. Since the war1 his life iias been devoted to forming in which ivocation he has been marvelously successful. He has ever taken an active interest in politics, not as an aspirant for political honors, but as a recreation and as a duty that he conceived ae owed his party and his country, tn speaking of his candidacy this morning Mr. Mount said: "I shall enter the race to win, but if I do not I shall take my place in the ranks and will be found at the front fighting for the election of my successful competitor." Such is the spirit that animates the candidacy of Montgomery county's candidate for Governor.

INTERESTING-FIGURES.

Some Facts Gleaned From the Tax Duplicate of Montgomery County—What Own and JPay Taxes On.

The Auditor has completed the abstract of taxable property in the county for 1895 on which taxes will be cpllected in 1896. The following footings from the several towns and townships are of interest: Total value of lands In county ...S 8,686,425.00 Value of improvements 1,577,625.00 Value of lots 1,280,6*20.00 Value of improvements onlots 1,048,805.00 Value of personal property 5,120,015.00 Value of telegraph, telephone. etc., property 101,254.00 Value of railroad property 1,790,860.00 Total value of taxablus 20,205,064 00 Polls 5,500.00 State general fund tax 21,092.79 State institutions fund 10,109.94 State debt 6,065.97 State school 25,136.59 State educational Institution Vv fund 3,370.12 Endowment of State University 1,011.05 County tax 63,553.13 Township tax 11,361 82 Tult.on tax 35.403.47 Special school tax ,36,288.84 Road tax 10.290.16 Dogtax 2,090.00 Free gravel roads 20,219.79 County bonds 20,219.79 Bridges 97,721.18 Total tax of 1895 284,991.64

The total tax for 1894 amounted to $260,630.05. A study of the abstract affords some interesting food for thought and THE JOUKNAL may specialize in this line later on.

Still Better.

J. J. Darter sold during last year 2o tracts of land, besides city property, aggregating 2,223 acres for $98,000.00. The average price of the Montgomery county lands sold was §54.47 per acre. The highest price paid was SI 15 per acre and the lowest $25 per acre. This eclipses all real estate sales yet reported. Who next?
