FRIDAY. OOTOBER 13. 1899.

THBBE was a decrease of 300,000 in the number of horses used in the United States last year. And still young men are learning to be horse doctors.

HAD not several of the Republican leaders of iDdianapolls sulked in their tents, Bookwalter would have been elected by a handsome majority. Their treacherous lethargy iB alone responsible for the retention of the political machinery of Indiana's greatest city in the hands of the Democratic party. These men will be long re-„ membered and not soon forgiven.

BUSINESS conditions continue to press the thorn in the tough hideB of the calamityites and their friends, the the Popocrats. The total failures for the week ending September 27, according to Bradstreet, were but 129 against 166 last year and 325 in the corresponding week of 1896, when Mr. Bryan wm a newer but not IOBB notorious figtws fcefeFS A™eric»n than he is to-day.

NEVER was the^onditioa Of the naJ tional treasury more satisfactory. The gold reserve is over 8150,000.000 higher the- the average of Cleveland's second term and it is considerably more than twice as large as it was then, notwithstanding Cleveland's sale, in a time of profonnd peace, of bondB amounting to over #262,000,000. Moreover, notwithstanding increased expenses, the present revenues are paying all expenditures, contrary to Democratic and anti-expansion prophesies.

WHILK

France stands next to Great

Britain in the number of war vessels, according to the Marine Review, as a matter of fact, the fighting capacity of the American navy to-day iB second only to that of Great Britain. "Already," says the Review, "the eyes of every naval officer across the Atlantic are upon us, eagerly watching the experiments we are making." This fact that we are now considered a greet naval power, will doubtless cause the anti-imperalists to see bugaboos working the rapid dissolution of the Republic.

WITHIN a very few years the United StateB has doubled her asportations. Somehow manufacturers and exporters tailed to give much heed to the frantic appeals and prophesies of the Democrats that the enactment of the Dingley protective tariff would kill our export trade but kept right on exporting and capturing new markets abroad. In the first seven months of 1899 our exports of manufacturers alone were nearly 8212,000,000, or 81,000,000 a day, while in the corresponding months of 1895 they were, in round numbers, 8110,000,000, or half a million dollars a day.

THB Brooklyn Citizen, a time-honor-ed free-trader, in giving a pen picture of Senator Foraker sayB: "Being a Republican partisan, he is of course in favor of protection. Without protection, Mr. Foraker and Republicanism would be in a bad way about election time, etc." Senator Foraker and Republicanism would beyond question, be in

a

ALL.the

bad way about

election time, without protection. They would be in about the same way the Democrats found themselves in 1896 after three years "without protection" with the factories of the country either shut down or on half time, with thousands out of employment and destitute, and with the country generally in the worst shape it

haB

ever been within the memory of the present generation.

recent reports from Russia,

Roumania and Bulgaria spoke of great and irreparable damage to growing grain. TheBe reports, if true, mean that Europe, for the third successive year, muBt buy ail the surpluB breadBtuffs the trnited StateB haB to sell. European reports do not speak encouragingly of those coarser grains which must be raised in abundance if they are to have a good supply of hogB over there. This indicates that the exports of provisions from the United States will be on the same great scale as in the fiscal year now ending and that which ended June 30, 1898.

Exports of breadstuffs, provisions, cattle and cotton in the year ending the last of last month will foot up 8675,000,000. The year before they -OTAre S765.000.000. A third vear with such a record will probably put Europe in. our debt. ...

DEMOCRACY AND TRUSTS. In opening the Iowa campaign at Des Moines, Congressman Landis, of this district, made the following comment concerning the Democratic party and trusts: "Driven from the position they occupied in the last national campaign Democracy has taken refuge behind imperialism and trusts. Our Democratic friends say that if they are Riven a chance they will break up the trusts. I do not doubt it. They can be depended upon to break anything from a factory to a charity organization. "The Democratic party is In no position to rail against trusts. Where is the home of theBe organization? In what states are they organized? Under the laws of New Jersey. The law that for years has been a standing invitation for the organization of these concerns was written by a Democratic legislature in a Democratic state, was passed by a Democratic house, was Bigned by a Democratic speaker, was passed by a Democratic senate, was signed by a Democratic presiding officer, and then was baptized by the signature of a Democratic governor. So much for the law that has given life and vigor to nine trusts out of every ten. "There stood in the little city in which I live a strawboard mill. It was bought and dismantled by a trust. It stood a monument to monopoly and the 'brutal force of consolidated wealtn.' Idle men stood on the streets, families went hungry. There was a Democratic president in the White House and a Democratic majority in both ends of the capital. My Btate had two Democratic senators and nine out of the thirteen members of the lower house were Democrats. All were elected on that anti-trust plank, that pledge, that promise. Did any one of them or Mr. Bryan rush to the relief of that dismantled mill? Did tha^ find places for those idle workmen? ''And during that Batne time tiiS' whisky trust, and the Standard oil trust, and the cracker trust, and the lumber trust, and the sugar trust, and the strawboard trust, and the type trust, and scores of other trusts choked and throttled and pilloried man after man, factory aftar factory, and dealer after dealer. "That was the golden opportunity for Mr. Bryan and the Democratic party, but the trouble with him and his party is that they do all their legislating in their platforms."

PHILADELPHIA Bulletin: Governor Mount, of Indiana, and his staff performed a graceful act when they took back to TexaB a confederate flag, captured from aLone Star regiment by Hoo9ier soldiers during the civil war. A few more examples of this kind of brotherly courtesy would not be at all amiss.

BOURKE COCHRAN indelicately likens Col. Bryan to a windmill. There is really very little similarity. Windmills revolve only when the wind blows, and even under such circumstances they can be controlled and shut off.

TAGGABT will now try for gubernatorial honors, but whenhe spreads out over Hoosierdom he will be found to be a thin proposition easily punctured.

MARION county Republicans are keen to reap the fruits of Republican victories, but are Bhamjfully remise in contributing thereto.

Resolutions of Condolence.

Adopted by the Ladies Orchestra of Win gate. WHEREAS death has removed from our number Mrs. May Craig, a talented and highly esteemed member, and trombone player of our orchestra. Therefore,

Resolved, That we reverently bow in humble submission to the will of Him, who doeth all things well. We deeply feel and mourn her loss, and are made to wonder why one so young and whose life was so full of promise, should be removed BO soon. We would not murmur againet the will of an allwise Providence, whose ways are past finding out, rather would we most kindly remember her sweet face, kind disposition, and our pleasant associations, and would emulate her womanly christian life as far as within us lies.

Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with her bereaved husband, who has been to the orchestra a friend and brother, in this dark hour of trial. We share with him the hope that we shall meet her in the sweet beyond, the home of the soul, where there Bhall be no parting and where "bliss ineffable forbids a tear."

Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to Mr. Craig, and that they be spread on the records of our association.

Married.

Married, at the residence of Rev. H. McCalip, the following parties: Oct. 4, '99, Isham A. Everson and Mary L. Hinkle.

Oct. 8, '99, Walter Smith and Temple Allen. The contracting parties stand at the top in moral excellence and bid fair to reach a high grade of matrimonial bliss.

(INDIANA'S INDUSTRIES.

The Figures of Indiana's Next Cenaug Will j'lv Amaze People.

"People will be amazed when the figures of the next census reveals the variety and magnitude of Indiana's industries," said Hon. Chas. E. Hernly, of New Castle, chairman of the Republican state committee to the Washington Pqst. "In the production of tin plate we have gone to the head of the list, there being some of the biggest plants in the United States within our borders and our mammoth plate glaBS factories are doing an enormous busineES. The manufacturing towns in the gas district—ElWood, Kokomo, Muncie, Anderson, Marion and others—are centers of important industries, giving employment to many thousands of laborers. We have gas enough for home use and pipe it into neighboring states, whose sources of supply have weakened. Another biff interest is petroleum which exists in yast quantities in half a dozen countieB.

Annual Reunion.

Last Sunday, Oct. 8, Co. B, 10th Indiana volunteer infantry, held its ninth annual reunion at the home of Thoa. Hunt, between Mace and Fredricksburg. The company is accustomed to hold its reunions on the 8th of October of each year, that being the anniversary of the battle of Perryville, in which this organization did some very harcf fighting. Comrade Hunt and his family had left nothing undone to give the boys a royal welcome. The yard was beautifully decorated with flags and a bountiful repast was spread for the veterans, upon which they made a valiant and successful attack without the IOBB of a man. Officers were elected for.the ensuing yea* and upon the invitation of Johnny and U. M. Scott it was voted to hold the next reunion £t their residence ic Crawfordsville,

The veterans were then entertained by music by Mrs. Bobbins, of Orawfordsville, and others, and by speeches from Dr. J. R. Duncan, Harvey Tinsley, Jacob Castor, and iBaac McCoy, of the 72d Indiana, W. A. Swank, and others. Before adjourning the company formed in line and a count showed 15 of the members present. The company and other visitors then took their departure, feeding that they had been splendidly entertained by Comrade Hunt, his wife, and other members of his family. j. Commissioner*' Allowances.
