FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1901
THE
people of Bloomington. Indiana,
are agitating' snwpraee.
THE
first oi'uer extending the civil
service rules has just been issued by the President and it effects 1,500 employes in certain departments of the war office.
THERE
is considerable money in
Crawfordsville thete days and It must be either loaned or invefcted. Loans are scarce and we fear in consequence considerable is being put into outside enterprises which may prove very dis appointing. Of course each must learn by his own experience, and yet it would seem that Crawfordsville people should be cautious when they remember the Crawfordsville money that has been lost in outside investments. Think of the Colorado silver mining stocks, the Joplin lead and zinc stocks,the Chicago and gas belt real estate, to mention only a few of the many ways in which Crawfordsville men have been hampered or ruined ^financially. It is certainly safer and more profitable to in 'veBt in something right here at home.
Every local manufacturing enterprise is successful. The stock is not on the market. Let the idle capital eeek investment in more home factories.
THE
President, as witnessed by many
recent utterances, is favorable to reciprocity, where it can be effected without injury to American industry, but the conviction is daily gaining strength that he does not propose to perform the duties of congress and that in his forthcoming message, he will clearly and concisely elaborate the situation and refer the matter of legislation to congress. Representative Boutell, of Illinois, slid on the subject of reciprocity, "As I recollect it, for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1901, our exports amounted to very nearly $1,500,000,000, while our imports were about $900,000,000 so that our exports exceeded our imports by about $600,000,000. Now it Idoes not need argument to show that in order to continue this present rapid rate of expansion of our foreign commerce we must be able to take more of the products of the coun tries to which our goods are sold. It is Bimply axiomatic that we cannot continue the present disproportionate ratio between our exports ani| imports,
REPRESENTATIVE BAHCOCK,
American labor and the end and aim of the tariff is the maintenance of the present high wages paid to American workmen, but as soon as the tariff does more than that it becomes a burden on ihe people. "The, question this congress will be called upon to answer is, will it permit a '.arilT duty to remain in force to enable a trust to pay dividends oa watered btock?" said Mr. Babcock. "The question I have raised will be met and I want it solved by t^e Republican party."
Two Marriages.
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at the home of the bride's mother on east Franklin street, occurred the marriage of Miss Gertrude G. Duncan ana Geo F. Coffenbury, the ceremony being performed by Squire S. A. Stilwell.
Wednesday afternoon athisofficeMr. Stilwell married James I. Yaryao, of Waveland, and Miss Dora Fruits, of this city. The young people will live in Waveland.
ADOLPH
BLUNEH, GraDd
Mound, la.,
writes: "I have used Foley's Hor.ey and Tar in my family and think it is the bet=t cough cure on the market. I would not be without it in my hoine, as thsre in nothing so good for cougiit. and colds."
jComment and Story^
James B. Elmore: "If I come out all right financially on my present book I expect to go to work on another one immediately. It will be a historical novel and will be entitled 'Twenty five Years in Jackville.' Besides treating of the interesting historical incidents connected with that village I would give interesting descriptions of the old fashioned kissing games which were so popular with the young people when I was a boy. There was nothing like the 'gum suck' party twenty and thirty years ago, and I am satisfied that it would be easy to cause a revival of interest in such things. If oan get Music Hall I will bring up twenty fivo old timers from Jackville and give an exhibition of the old fashioned games as they were played in nearly every country neighborhood about war time."
S
A grocer: "I had a peculiar experience recently in buying some butter. The staple has been very scarce and when a youngster came into the store carrying a nice looking lot of sweet smelling butter I bought it at once and asked the boy if I could not engage from his mother all the butter sho made regularly. He replied: 'We have it all engaged, but a mouse fell in the cream jar and mamma said she would not like to take that around to her regular customers so she told me to take it into the grocery man.' I was sorry then that I had spoken and told him to take his butter and carry the mail."
An Officeholder: "The strenuous life of the officials that have hopes of re election is something fierce. We are pestered to death with subscription papers for everything imaginable, and we are almost forced to buy tickets to pie suppers, church suppers, lectures, crazy quilts, donate to donation parties, help out everything of a public character where money is to be raised for some cause or other, until we make a div6 for our pocketbooks as soon as we see the fiend approaching. Many of the things are all right and we cough up cheerfully, but on the other hand many are pure and simple grafts."
Capt. Win. Marks, of Waynetown: "Very few people take me to be seven ty-three years old and when I tell a stranger that I am a veteran of both the Mexican and civil wars he is much surprised. Many life insurance agentB still ask me to take policies until I tell them my age."
Major Foote: "Over thirty years ago Prof. Campbell suggested the idea of having the city surveyed as a whole, establishing grades for all improvements but it has never been done. The confusion caused by having so many different engineers convinces me that the idea was a good one."
C. W. Brown: "1 was employed eight years in the pension bureau of which five were spent as special examiner when it was my business to investigate cases of alleged fraud. I worked hard, for of course it was a feather in my cap whenever I could find a pensioner who was illegally on the rolls. But it is a fact that of all the cases I investigated I found but one man who was not pptitled to his pension."
5. A. McClure:
of
Wisconsin, who has been so emphatic In his assertions that he would press his bill revising the tariiT schedule of Iron and steet products, has made a statement defining his position. He ejiya that where changed conditions have resulted in cheapening the co^t of production so that the present rate of tsrilT is not needed for the protection of labor he would lower the rate until it was only sufficient to make up the difference between the cost of American labor at present wages and the cost of foreign labor. He says the protection policy means protection to

He has me and it is only a question of fourteen days until he gets the rent of liis prey."
Ike L. Ronsheim: A fellow can't tell when he is stepping into danger. See these scars on my face? 1 got them fifteen years ago in Florida. 1 was in a saw mill waiting for some lumber and volunteered to help push a truck load of heavy beam«. The truck and beams fell over on me and everybody supposed I was dead. It so happened that fell in among some beams already on the floor. They were so placed as to break the fall of the ones on tcp of me. I was laid up for seven weeks."
jJames R. Hanna: "I was in the pension department eight years, and from what I have observed and heard from old employes, H. Clay Evans, the present commissioner, is the most efficient man who ever held the office."
N. R. Swan: "We will have the Carnegie library under roof by Christmas. The Masonic temple will be finished next spring with the new shale brick made by Everson & Ferguson, in my opinion the prettiest brick ever made." •v-v.s
A druggist: "1 just fixed up for that.

oil, and on top you pour some California brandy, which Is very light, and there you are. You take it and never taste the caator oil. Like to try one? No? Well, you don't know what you are missing."
Horse Thief Escapes.
Elza Doyle returned from Clermont Sunday morning with the rig stolen from Pruitt Gibson, of Parkersburg, last week. He traced tile thief, who is supposed to have been Earl Edwards, out to Raughville, hut finally lost track of him. Edwards was around Parkersburg last week and attended an entertainment, during which he got up and left and Gibson's horse and buggy disappeared at the same time. Edwards formerly lived near Parkersburg and was at once suspected of the crime. He got $24 for the rig at Clermont and skipped out.
Suit for Divorce.
Frank Thewlis has filed a petition for divorce from his wife in the Montgomery circuit court. He states that they were married Oct. 11, 1898, and lived together until Nov. 3, 1899, when the defendant abandoned him. Healso charges that the defendant is possessed of an "Incompatible temper," and treated him cruelly and inhumanly. The parties are from Madison township.
Death of a Child.
Lucile the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Dice, died last Sunday afternoon at the home near Linnsburg, of congestion of the brain She waa two years and eleven months old. The funeral occurred on Monday, conducted by Rev. Elliott, and the interment was in the K. of P. cemetery at Linnsburg,
Suit For Divorce.
Mrs. May Osborn has entered suit in the circuit court for a divorce from James H. Osborne. Jim ib in the penitentiary serving a sentence for the murder of Boze Ellis, and the fact that he is guilty of a misdemeanor makes her ground for a divorce good. The defendant will in all probability wholly make default.
