Stamp in the square that sur- j a rounds the rooster. Tax rate under Democratic administration $2.00. Under Republican, 2.34. The A. P, A. think tip y can do many wonderous thmgs, but they caunot make an honest Democrat vote the Republican ticket. No wonder the Republican leaders fear the Reed hoodoo. Every State in which he spoke in his r olonged tour in 1892 gave in creased Democratic majorities, and the “shopping women” are still abroad in the land. Mr. UiiSrlson’s calamity campaign of ludiana preaching destruction to the tune of factory whistles and the throbs of all night engines was about the most absurd performance anex-President of the United States wa3 ever guilty of. How can the Republicans conscientiously vote for G. VV. Steele and protection and be continually howling about hafd times, when uow under Democratic times every mill, every factory and every shop is beine worked to us fullest capacity, and in some of then wages have beun advanced- Vote for Hon. A. N. Martin. Inspectors at many poling places in Indiana at the coming election may expect to have a few questions to contend with. The women of the State who favor suffrage for their sex are expected to make a general movement on this line and offer their votes at the coming election. If refused, they will report to their committee or to Mrs. Gouger, who will carry the matter into the courts- and test the question of the right of women to Vote under the law. It is not uncommon during a great political campaign especially one when there is to be a National Legislature elected, that the general commercial business of the country falls off to extent, ut ;to-day in the bustle and beat of an exceedingly exciting campaign, the general indication as reported from the leading commercial business men ot the Nation shows there is a great improvemen all over the pountry. As an evidence of the same, there is the Westing house Air Brake Company’s works at Wilmerding, which have only working seven hours a day and four days a week for many months, in addition to laying off a large number ot men, have resumed opperation to their full capacity. This will giye employment to hundreds of men who have been idle for a long time, and such is the case all over the country under the new Democratic system of tariff.

VESTED RIGHT. The following is the law adopted by Congress and signed by Rresictent Cleveland on December 21, 1893, and this was done on the motion of Congressman MartinUnder this law. suspension of pensions has been forbidden and every pensioner will be given a fair chance. Any pension heretofore or that may hereafter be granted to any applicant theretor under, any law of the United States authorizing the granting and payment ot pensions, on application made and adjudicated upon, shall be deemed and held by all officers of the United States to be a vested right in the pensioner to that extent that payment thereof shall not be withheld or suspended until after due notice to the pensioner of not less than thirty days, the Commissioner *of Pensions, after hearing all the evidence, shall decide to apnul, vacate, modify, or set aside the decision upon which such pension was granted. Such notice to pensioner must contain a full and true statement of any charge or allegations upon which such decision granting such pension shall Jre • sought to be in any manner disturbed or modified. The voters ot Decatur elected a Republican Mayor and Council this ’ spring, and to-day we have ofa tax $2.35 on every hundred dollars to ‘ pay. It is an outrage that such a ' levy should be made when #2 00 ■ is the highest it has ever been under the new law. The sooner the people of Adams county realize ; that one trial is enough for the Republican party, the better it will be t for them. The Democratic party has enacted a splendid reform law , for equal system of taxation, but it would be of little service if Repub.«Jican officials keep keep up the tax rax rate. \ I il - —— Next Tuesday is election day, * and every Democrat should be at ' the polls and have a friend with him who never fvoted that way. 1 The men on the Democratic ticket 1 are all good men whom eyery lover of a straight forward adrmnistra--1 tion ot the county’s business can ' conscientiously support. And the man for Congress, Hon. A. N. Martin is a man who will not forget the soldier, and will do all he can for the masses of the people. If it had not been for Democratic members of Council, the Republi cans would have made tax rates 2.50 on each one hundred dollars.

A GOOD SUGGESTION. Mr. Harrison in his speeoh ai English admonished the voters thus: ‘•Put in your spare time thinking.” Excellent advice —none better. If the people think long enough these are some of the things they will remember: That President Harrison found the Treasury full aud left it empty. He converted a surplus of SIOO, 000,000 into a deficit of $50,000, 000. That he received from a Democratic administration nearly SIOO,000,000 of gold iti excess of the reserve, and left to his successor less than $1,000,000.. That during Cleveland’s fit at administration there was a net gamiri gold imports of $54,772,000, ahd during Harrison's administration there was a net loss of $122,624,000. That by President Harrison’s signature the McKinley bill became a law, raising the duties to the highest average since the war, buttressing trusts aud depleting the

revenue. That this law condemed by the people by over .1, majority in 1890 and again in 1892 by a verdict still more sweeping and severe. That Benjamin Benjamin Harrison’s judge and district attorney saves Wm. W. Dudley from the consequences of his revealed crime m instigating the bribery of voters in Indiana, That not republican principles or virtues but Democratic blundering and negligence have giyen the discredited and discarded party of Harrison, Reed, Quay, Elkins & Co. its victories this year. If the people think hard eqough they will probably conclude that the punishment has been sufficient. Vote for A. N. Martin the friend of the workman. When you drop into the Auditor’s office you find the same Henry France that you did on the farm. The republican city officials raised thetax rate from #2.00 to $2 34, what would they do if they gained control of the county? , -J — A communication from the boldiers’ Home at Marion, lnd., reached us too late for publication in this issue, but it denounces Major Steele for bis attempt to rob the soldier of his pension. CATARRHAL dvspepsia. A Discouraged Invalid Restored to Health and Happiness. Catarrh of the stomach causes a condition known as dyspepsia or indigestion. It usually results from catarrh in the throat, but sometimes occurs in people who have never bad catarrh else where. The symptoms of dyspepsia are: Liver complaint, biliousness, sour stomach, water-brash, bloating after eating, constipation, piles, and, in many cases', low spirits, dizzy head, sympa thetic heart palpitation, pain, indigestion, and looseness of the bowels. Pe-ru-rta and Man-a-lin, taken according to directions on the bottle, will cure everyone. The following is a specimen of the letters received from patients: O. Sv McQuillan, Spring Ilill, lowa, writes: “Four years ago last fall my stomach, without any previous warning, refused to perform its functions, and I soon lost strength. During this time food Was forced through my stomach by using cathartics. With flesh wasted away, strength exhausted so that it took all my energy to even get into a bath tub, hopes all gone, I began to take Pe ru-na and Man a-lin, following free advice which Dr. Hartman gave me In a short time I could eat nourishing food, and the piles, kidney trouble and constipation disappeared. Flesh, strength, and a splendid appetite returned, and I went to work.” For treatise on catarrh, cougha, colds, consumption, and all climatic diseases of winter, send for Family Physician X O . 2.

- STATEMBIfI-X. It is currently reported by Mr. Frysinger and other Republican can - didates that there is a discrepancy of about nine hundred dollars between the Records in my office and ray Annual Report in regard to taxes as collected by the County Treasurer for the year ending May 31, 1894. I beg leave to correct this fase report by making the following statement and affidavit. December Settlement, 1893.

Monroe Hems. ■ The Republican calamity meeting, billed 1 tor Hon. LaFollette last Monday night, to i take place at the Hooker Hall was a fizzle, sadly disappointing Jo Hocker and Dr. , Andrews very much. Jo went into exile , goon after he learned the speaker would not be present, and Doc didn’t care whether • school kept or not. as he entertained the young ladies for a time, while the old 1 liners were marching home. r [ The Republicans of Monroe hav'e always ■ howled patriotism and loved the patriots of this government ao weU, that we’uns con--1 eluded that they had the pictures of Lin- ’ coin, Grant, Washington and others, but * we’uns were magnltudiually mistaken, for when they needed pictures of such men, to > decorate the hall last Monday night, they l had to come to we’nus for pictures and all . we’uns had was the picture of Lincoln with . the following motto attached: -‘Lincoln Tea, as a Cathartic can’t be beat.” The decorating committee took it, and uow the ’ picture langulsheth on the wall awaiting another Republican demonstration. \ Thursday of last week four young men ’ in the vicinity of Monroe, were arrested ’ and brought before Squire Simcoko and plead gulltv to disturbing religious meet-

ing held at the Pleasant Valley church. They were fined $lO and costs. More arrests will follow. The young boys and girls, and the older ones, in this community can be educated and compelled to obey thekind requests of the law-abiding citizens. We politely and respectfully invite the Republicans and populists who are all in the wilderness to step into the booth and stamp \ “Stamp the cock that crowed in the morn, That startles the farmers as sure as your born; The finest chicken on the farm, ThS only protection to your valuable hen. He is a model and a superior to man men, He pays no attention to tariff high or low, But crows for the party that respects him so. Last Wednesday morning John W. Hen- * dricks, of Kentucky, dropped down on Monroe like an avalanch, but was full of smiles. The reason for his coming was to see his wife who Is visiting her parent near here, and had informed him that he was father of a tiny girl baby. John will return home next Monday with mother, baby and all. Jonathan Burkncad was bitten by a vicious dog belonging to John Strait.
