Governor Marshall and his successor after January Ist, Samuel Ralston, will be the big head liners at the Jollification meeting to be held at Fort Wayne Thursday evening. It will be a real celebration and particularly so, because the Twelfth district is the home of Tom Marshall, now vice pres-ident-elect of the United States. A banquet for four hundred people will be given. Governor Wilson, president-elect, *.s "sawing wood..’’ and saying nothing. He has made no announcement of his cabinet, nor of any anticipated action on new laws. He is listening and studying but it is safe to say that a man who us< o the care he does, will do the right thing. Just now he is particularly interested in cleaning up his own state of Nt—f Jersey, and he will do it before he assumes the presidential ihair. The cry for houses continues in !>♦■• catur and there is not a day that we do not receive inquiries. U the city would giow, there must tie more Mouses, an! if we continue to pros|>er next year, there is no doubt that from fifty to one hundred new homes will be erected iu this city. That will be real progress. Just now the important thing Is to figure out some means of continuing ihe improvement, by the addition of a new factory or two. Now that the election is over the Indianapolis republican und progressive papers ano newspaper writers *<v| telling what a wonderful man Thomas Taggart is. This is the regular occupation of these people They are for him from now until the next campaign opens, and then he will be about the worst man outside of prison. At that they fool nobody Tom Taggart is the best organization democrat in the state, always fighting for the ticket. and always doing that which will b« the best for bis party.

THE SUGAR FACTORY STORIES. Newspaper* in this part of the state which find delight in saying things which injure Decatur people or institutions, have been printing stories lately concerning the sugar factory here. They make the statement that the factory here is not receiving beets and that consequently the farmers will lose heavily. There is practically no truth in the statements. The fads are that the beets have come in rapidly and that it haa been im|<ossi'.>le for the company to hire m*n to unload the cars fast enough. Consequently they have had to stop the cars coming, but in doing so have guaranteed the farmers that they will be taken care of without loss. The company is doing everything possible to accommodate the farmers who raise beets, now and at all times, and it is unfair to say anything else. The facts are that with a new factory, they are doing exceedingly well. MAKES NOMINATIONS.
