In endorsing Hon. James A. McNutt, of Brazil, and Hon. H. 0. Lewis, of Greeucastle, for judge and prosecutor, respectively, of the Thirteenth judicial district the republicans of < lay county have acted wisely, Mr. .McNutt is a lawyer ami jurist of great ability, would make an excellent race for the position and would grace the circuit bench with dignity and impartiality. Mr. Lewis needs no introduction to the people of the district in which he has made one canvass for the position to which he now aspires, the prosecutorship. As there is no other candidate in the Held, and Clay county has instructed for Mr. Lewis, there is little doubt of ins nomination by acclamation. The placing of the above named two gentlemen on the republican judicial ticket would give pleasure to many voters in this county as well as in Clay. Now that the Democrat has been called down by the chairman of the prohibition county committee for its twaddle about that party, and has been compelled to make a firstly, secondly and thirdly explanation of its remarks, in the conclusion of which it prates of its great liberality in news giving in relation

YttMterriuy’s AmuV4*rxary.
The anniversary and thank-offer ing services of the \V. F. M. S. at Locust Street church yesterday were attended by large audiences both morning and evening, and were entertaining and profitable. In the morning Miss Jessie Beals gave an account of the organization of the society; Mrs. Florence Mur tin a paper on “Our Work in India,” and Dr. Pouchera talk on the work in Rome. The evening program consisted of a description of the work of the training school at Chicago by Miss Ida Kliis, who has just graduated there; a paper on “Our Work,” read by Miss KUa Adams, songs and recitations by the children and remarks by the pastor, Rev. R. R. Bryan, and Rev. A. T. Riley. Excellent music was rendered by the choir, botli morning and evening. The collection taken amounted to about eighty-
(ive dollars.
At Cttiitm’ Point. The Clay county republicans held an enthusiastic convention at Center Point on Saturday, and like all other republican conventions this year, it was a rouser. A resolution was passed instructing the delegates to the congressional and judiciary conventions to cast a solid vote for Hon. K. S. Holliday, of Brazil, for congress, and Hon. James A. McNutt for circuit judge, and for the Hon. H. C. Lewis, of Putnam, for prosecuting attorney. The ticket nominated is a very
strong one.
UpinihlicHii KpHolutloiiA. The following resolutions were passed by the republican county convention on April 14, which the democratic papers of Putnam re-
fuse to publish:

From the mountain tops to the shores of the sea, there is one wild shout of fierce resolve to capture Washington city, at all and every human hazard. Yet in the face of the universal chorus, “On to Washington!” Mr. Jefferson Davis, president of the southern con-
goods. The damage is about $1000.

than to his people, said to his con-1 gross at Montgomery: “We profess solentnlv in the face of man-1 kind, that we desire peace at any | sacrifice save that of honor. In in- j dependence we seek no conquest, no aggrandizement, no cession of any kind from the states with which we have lately confederated. All wo
ask is to be let alone—those who never held power over us should not now attempt to subjugate us by arms. A quaint writer of the day tints commented on the assertation of Mr. Davis, “All we seek is to be
let alone.”
“As vonoe I valked by a dismal swamp, There 8ot an old covo in the dark and damp, And at everybody as paastHi that road, A st ic»k or a atone that old cove throw’d; And venever he thing ills stick or his stone. He’d set up a song of ‘Let me alone.'

A NEW IDEA. You will remember that Goliah was very much surprised when David hit him with a rock. He said such a thin" had never entered his head before. ANOTHER SURPRISE. Some of our people may be surprised when we tell them that the best Daily paper for their needs is the Daily Banner Times, of Greencastle. Ind. HERE’S the idea: Perhaps you are not takin" it. If not, why not. It’s cheap enough, prompt as is the coming of the day, and has all the local news at the right time. IT’S ADVERTISING. Merchants who have tried it say it’s the best advertising medium in the city. That's another surprise, but the advertisers will testify to the fact. DON’T DELAY. Don't wait for some philanthropist to come along and give you warning that you are missing the best thing of your life. We will tell it to you. ADVICE FREE. We, in giving this advice, presume you desire to increase your business, succeed in life, and keep up with the procession of local and foreign events.
