THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT. BY A. J. HIVU Friday, October, 7, 1881. Informations Lave bwen tiled against quite a number of the “Star Route” conspirators, and warrants issued for all except Gen. Brady. Ex Governor Franklin J. Hoses, formerly governor of South Carolina, was recently arrested in New York, charged with swindling. There is an immense amount of northern capital seeking investment in the south. A great era of prosperity seems to t>e in store for the south. •*. President Arthur is expected to foim a new cabinet at an early day, one more directly tn sympathy with atalwart ideas than was President Garfield's. The remains of a mammoth* were found recently in Huntington county by a farmer, some six feet beneath the surface, as he was digging a well. Consumers will be obliged to pay good round prices for the necessaries of life this'winter. Groceries and all kinds of produce arc indulging in a boom. Governor Porter has issued his proclamation that the laws passed at the last session of the legislature have been distributed to the different coun ties and are now in force. There is a project on foot to erect a memorial hospital on the spot where the President was stricken down, which is meeting favor, and will probably be carried out. Iroquois, Mr. Lorillard's horse has had a very successful season in Europe, having won almost every prize of note, the last being the Doncaster St. Leger prize, the first time it has been won by a foreign horse. Foreign guests for the Yorktown centennial celebration arc beginning to arrive. Several French iron-clads have arrived in New! ork. IheFrenchand German visitors will be entertained on an elaborate scale at New Aork and Providence.

The fight between the half-breeds and stalwarts for the control of the Republican state organization of New Y ork promises to be bitter. There will, it is thought, be two set of delegates to the state convention. The grand jury of the district met Monday, with a full attendance. They will proceed to consider the case of the assassin Guitean. The testimony in the case has besn heard and the indictment is being prepared by District Attorney Corkhill, and was to be presented yesterday. If Conkling does net prove a thorn in the side of the Arthur administration The Democrat will miss its guess. He cannot rise above his personal animosities. lie will stoop to kick every one he is able to. and Arthur, it is to be feared, will give him an opportunity to indulge. Next Tuesday, Ohio elects a governor and other state officers. The campaign has been an unusually quiet one. devoid of the usual political buncombe, undoubtedly in a large measure due to the struggle for life which the President was making since the fatal shot of the assassin struck him. The Republicans are very much exercised over the organization of the Senate. They think it would be manly in the Democrats to surrender all into their hands and make grave threats of what they will do if they do not. It the democratic party was not a factor in the fight they would be cutting each others throats already. A party whose chiefs seem to be engaged in a political war, carried on upon the principles recognized by Sitting Bull, does not commend itself to thoughtful people who really have the good of country at heart. In this emergency the democratic senators will be the balance wheel of political power. And to them the country looks for safe .deliverance from the ruler or ruin policy that seems to obtain in the rival factious of the Republican party.

Kokomo, Ind., is strongly republican. Last spring the people took it into their heads that they would elect ] an independent ticket. A Dr. Cole 1 was put at the head for Mayor and elected: Some two weeks since he was ] caught about midnight by a Sheriff’s posse in the act of stealing flour from 1 one of the city mills and on being commanded to halt fled and was shotdown. < When the officers reached him they found him dead with a revolver in each 1 hand. He has been accused of ‘'crook- ' ,ed ways;” just what is meant by the expression, The Democrat is unable < tx say. Some who have known Cole for » long time think he has been foully dealt with. The investigation before the Coroner revealed nothing I J♦ & I but ‘.be cold Tacts as related But it is strange that a man with “crooked ways ’ should have been put forward in a Republican stronghold and be elected, Il indicates that while Cole was “crooked’’the ways of the opposite pirtywere mere crooked,

Henry J. Rowly, a ward politician of Utica, N. Y., Conkling's home, gut angry because a resolution of sympathy for Garfield, which he introduced was voted down, through Conkling influence,wrote a letter to a friend expressing the hope that somebody would put a bullet through Conkling should he enter the Republican state convention.

L'ndoubtedly they are purchased and j carried with a good motive; only intended to be used to save the lives oi those who carry them. But the record of the past ten years does not justify this conclusion. It is one long chapter of crime, with hardly an extenuating circumstance in favor of the pistol. With slight provocation, man are slain from no cause that would jus tify the taking of human life. Examine each case, one by one, and with slight variations in the .details aud the result is the same. In a given one hundred cases, iu ninety-nine it will be found that there was no legal justification for taking the life of a fellow being. Aud when we come to sum up the number of human lives thus prematurely cut off, the record is one of the black spots iu the social aspects of the American character, one without a redeeming feature. With a record with such appalling results, there is but one course to pursue, aud that is to throw away the ' deadly weapons, before you become ' murderers. If you do not, to-morrow you may iu a moment of rage or excitement take the life of a friend, which you can never restore, besides rendering yourself amenable to the law. Aud, though you might by some legal technicality escape the punishment you would richly merit, you cannot escape the upbraidings of a guilty conscience while you life. Cheese Factory. One of the pressing ifeeds to the farming community is a cheese factory located at this place. A factory that could consume the milk of five hundred cows is what is wanted to start with. It would require an outlay of some SSOOO in buildings, machinery, etc. The object of this article is not to go into details. We have not the data at hand for that purpose, but simply to call attention to some of the advantages to the farmers of such an institution. In the first place we have as fine a grazing country as there is in the world. Secondly, our farmers at present, the average farmer we mean, get the lowest price for butter. For confirmation look to the New A’ork markets for quotations of western but. I ter. Thirdly, a factory started here would enable our farmers to realize I twice as much for milk as they now do I from working it into butter at home. ’ This is a subject in which you are j deeply interested. A'on arc not rcaliz ; ing for your dairy products what you ought to. You cannot give it that at- j tention its importance demands. They ; are able to do so in factories, and by so doing are able to secure higher prices] for both butter and cheese than is possible in family dairies. This profit they can divide with you and both be benefited. The Democrat will refer to this subject again. It should be discussed; agitated if you please, until a factory has been established and ! a permanent market thereby secured I for all the milk you can produce, at a j much greater profit than you are now i obtaining by the old system of making • it into butterat home. There are some other features connected with the subject tha t could be enlarged upon, and have a direct bearing upon the indirect profits. Grazing and feeding cattle produces manure and enriches the laud, instead of running it down, which is an important ’ item not to be overlooked in making I up your estimates of profits.

MOV MUI TH ITEMS*. BY ' V IB':. ’ Clover seed that is remaining in the fields is getting badly damaged by the rams. Rev. Watts attended the Society of the Friend s yearly meeting, at Richmond. R. D. Chenoweth has retired from the agency business, prefer'ng agricultural pursuits. F. M. Rice sold about sixty excursion tickets to the Fort Wayne fair. Lodging was scarce during the fair, and rather hard to be had lor love or money. Some of our young men being on the look out for a place to stay, got a little boisterous, and especially one, having perhaps imbibed a little more bug juice than the rest, was kindly taken in by one of those official strollers of the silent night. Imagine the astonishment of the young man on settling in the morning to find that his bill amounted to some twelve dollars. El. Numbers took possession of the William's school last Monday. There are still some that intend to excurt to the City of Rome next week. Due Grandstaff in hauling wheat to Fort Wayne for Perry Robinson, broke his wagon about eight miles from town; compelling him to go to the city to hire a teamster to haul it to market. The school director, 8. Kunkle, has given the school house a thorough cleaning preparatory to Mr. Walters entrance.

** 4. Cathartic Pills Combine the choicest cathartic principles in medicine, in proportions accurately adjusted to secure activity, certainty, and uniformity of effect. They are the result cf years of careful study and practical experiment, and are the nnist effectual remedy yet discovered for diseases caused by derangement of the stomach, liver, and bowels, which require prompt and effectuni treatment. Aral's Puns are specially applicable to this class of diseases. They act directly on the digestive and assimilative processes, and restore regular healthy action. Their extensive use by physicians in their practice, and by all civilized nations, is one of the many proofs of their value as a safe, sure, and esrfeetly reliable purgative medicine, cing compounded of the concentrated virtues of purely vegetable snhstances. they are positively free from calomel or any injurious projterties, and cau be administered to children with perfect safety. AVER’S Pills are an effectual cure for Constipation or CostiveneSs, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite, Foul Stomach aud Breath. Dizziness, Headache, Loss of Memory, Numbness, Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheumatism, Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Dropsy, Tumors, Worms, Neuralgia, Colic, Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Gout, Files, Disorders of the Liver, and al! other diseases resulting from * disordered state of the digestive apparatus. As a Dinner Pill they have no equal. While gentle in their action, these Pills are the most thorough and searching cathartic that can be employed, and never give j>ain unless the bowels are inflamed, and then their influence is healing. They stimulate the appetite and digestive organs; they operate to purifv and enrich the blood, and impart renewed health and vigor to the whole system. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer &.
