There is a feeling and disposition on the part of some manufacturers who favor protection, and who have become so disgusted with theetforts of the present free trade party to overthrow and revolutionize the industrial and commercial progress of the i'nited States, not to oppose whatever changes in the McKinley tariff may now be offered by the party in power. The idea of these gentlemen is to let the free trade

It takes nerve to make suth | )avo full swing, that the people of

the I'nited States may learn to its full extent how disastrous the free trade policy would betotbe country and that the “object lesson” might be the greater. This they think

mills by American workingmen will involve such an enormous loss in | money circulation, such a terrible waste of American labor, such a vast amount sf distress among the poor classes of our people, that its effect is too terribly astounding to contemplate. A policy of passive submission to the present administration's free trade recommendation would be far too high a price for the American people and the American nation to pay. The free trade policy of the present party in power must be fought at all points and by

all fair methods.

The new tariff itill is cut bias in favor of the South.

The tariff is to be mashed and the local democratic papers should

be correspondingly happy.

A short S«*H*ion l.ast I'Acning nnil u l.igbt < hum Ordiiiaius*. The clock in the council chamber last evening marked six minutes to six when the gong was sounded by His Honor. That clock has been marking six minutes to [six for the last six years and six months, and an ordinance should be passed for its official repairing, or lire the machine out bodily. Some enterprising jeweler can get in his work by repairing the regulator and then painting Ins ad. on the face of it instead of the one now in force. Minutes were read for the past two meetings and adopted. Treasurer Lanties’ report for October was reported correct by finance committee. Councilman Miller read the same from his left bootleg, a bad cold having lowered his vocal organs to thar point. The matter of removing the present stop cock gauges on the public drinking fountains was discussed. Since the cold weather lias set in these gauges have tranlbrmed the fountains into “freezers," as Councilman Bridges termed them, and thereby rendered them useless. The council ordered the “freezers” removed until warm weather. 1 he chairman of the light committee reported that his attention hud been called to the fact that about one-third of the street lights were not burning lust night, and he stated he would look into the matter. On the subject of light it was discovered that a new contract would he due the first half of the coming year and preliminary steps were taken towards advertising for bids. The city engineer was instructed to prepare an outline of plans and specifications and descriptions of the form of advertising tlesired and submit the same to the council at the next meeting. Enough time will be given to thoroughly advertise to the world that a contract is to be let. Tiling was ordered placed in the gutter at the alley on Water street between Washington and

Franklin.

The tirst and linal estimate on Olive street was reported by the

city engineer.

Mr. Cooper is Here. Hon. George W. Cooper, congressman, is in the city today seeing his constituency. A Banner Times reporter had a pleasant talk with Mr. Cooper, whom he met in Mr. W. G. Neff's office. Mr. Cooptr returns to Washington Friday, and stated he would leave Greeneastle this evening. He is seeing the party workers, and a prominent democrat stated he is looking up his fences as he goes along, preparatory to a re nomination. The faithful culled on him quite regularly and the distinguished visitor was greeted with a hearty democratic reception. TO MEET AT GREENCASTLE. KriMibllriuii. of Fiitiiniii County Cnllctl to Meet in Confereiivt* Dm-viiiLcr lb. The republicans of Putnam county are hereby called to meet in conference at the court house in the city of Greeneastle on Saturday, Dec. 16, 18'.):!, at one o'clock p. m. Matters of great interest to the party and to the individual members thereof will be considered. The democratic party in the short nine months of its ascendency with full power in every branch of the federal, state and county government has fully demonstrated its incapacity to cope with the problems of state which make for the prosperity of a great people. And the late elections, beginning with the capital city of Indiana, indicate that the people have fully appreciated such incapacity and have expressed their appreciation with emphasis in all the states which have Intel}' had opportunity to ro express themselves. The people seem to have determined that the office hunters, spoils getters, treasury looters, tariff tinkerers.pension haters and panic authors of democracy shall be throttled from Tammany down. With this promising outlook the republicans of Putnam county will meet as aforesaid to celebrate recent victories, talk with each other and consider ways and means that shall bring about the best results for the party in Putnam county and to take steps looking to the reorganization of tiie party. Let every republican in the county make special effort to lie present. It is hoped that each township will have a large representation on that day. By order of the executive committee of the Putnam County Republican Central committee. C. B. Case, T. T. Moore, Vice Chairman. Chairman Sherman Scott, H. C. Lewis, Secretary. Treasurer.
