J. K. Everson: "I think that Crawfordsville is to become a center for the manufacture of paving brick owing to the remarkably fine quality of shale to be found here in inexhaustible quantities. I am willing to go into an enterprise of this kind at any time and have ten thousand dollars to invest."
1. G. Poston has in his possession some paving brick which he had made from Crawfordsville shale a few days ago at the Veedersburg factory. They are as hard as granite and are pronounced by experts to,be the finest in quality ever shown.

aroused will make short work of this powerful and dangerous evil. One of the most potent means of the rum power in perpetuating its existence has been an intimidated press. Like slavery it has tried to close the mouths of the people and thereby hide its iniquities. .^ust as soon as an open discussion of slavery begun, just so soon was its doom sealed. It will be so with the liquor trallic.
In the editorial columns of a recent issue of your paper, we noticed a quotation, which, presumably, reflects the opinion of THE JOUKNAL in regard to the prohibitory law of Kansas. The position therein taken is not only fallacious but antagonistic to the cause of temperance. The quotation is from the Outlook, a "religious weekly" i?) and is as follows:

and blinds down so frequently in many of the saloons of Indiana at times when it is unlawful to conduct their business, if our law. the Nicholson law, is to be taken as a model for, which the state of Kansas should csurrender prohibition, as a more rational system by which she could secure the respect and obedience of her citizens?
If THE JOURNAL and Outlook believe in the repeal of such laws, which are so frequently violated and not enforced as to create a contempt of the law breaking classes for such, then it is high time for the repeal of our eleven o'clock and Sunday closing laws. For these laws, viewed in the light of the Outlook aud THE JOURNAL, are certainly mighty big jokes. Do you believe in their repeal? We do not. But we do believe in their strict enforcement. And if our law officers will not see to it. thev should be impeached.
Tho prohibitory law of Kansas is not a failure. If so, why do the brewers and distillers so bitterly oppose it aad have their paid attorneys so zealously working for its repeal? If it is a failure and a dead letter, it would not conflict with their interests. Not long ago one of our fellow townsmen was traveling through Kansas and engaged in conversation with a representative of a large brewery. This representative was bitterly cursing prohibition in that state and remarked that more beer was isold there now than before the law was enacted. "Why then," said our fellow townsman, "do you so bitterly oppose it He was neatly caught and could only reply with a volley of oaths. For every ounce of failure of the prohibitory law of Kansas there is a ton of failure in tho license and-regulating system of other states.
Tho people of Kansas do not want to and will not take any backward steps on this question. They have been betrayed in some localities by their officials, who at the behest of political bosses and liquor dealers, have deceived the people, secured the vote of the liquor element, perjured themselves and gained a b»-ief but dishonorable promotion to place and power.

A CONTROLLING INTEREST.
Col. E'..~ton Takes a Great Majority of the Match Factory Stock—Will Push the Business.
Last August Col. I. C. Elston secured from stockholders of the Indiana Match Company of this city, a six months' option on their stock at one hundred and fifty per cent. This option was seI cured on about three-fourths of the stock. Wednesday notice was served on those who had given the option that

been "the net result" of the various factory. On Wednesday whenquestion laws that have been passed licensing, regulating and restricting the liquor traffic'? Has not every single law that has been enacted for the restriction or regulation of the licensed saloon and of the traffic been flagrantly violated? And this, too, often times not only with the knowledge of but with the connivance of the "law officers" who could and should enforce the law'? What about the all night saloons of Chicago and their adjoining dens of iniquity'? The state of Illinois has a law regulating and licensing the liquor business. Are we to infer that the law of Illinois is an example of this "more rational and practical system" of suppressing the traffic? Or would this religious
