The fact that Putnam county is to have legal advice at .$25 per year is alike discreditable to the county and to the attorney accepting the job. Cheap legal advice is the dearest kind in the long run. This is evidenced by the tact Unit Putnam county now has a six hun tired dollar road muddle on its hands that good, sound advice would have avoided. The merry war on in the democratic camp in Putnam county is not surprising. There is a disposition among the younger, and not a few- older, detn ocratic attorneys that the present county attorney and ex-boss of the county central committee has been trying to run matters in the politi cal camp with entirely too high and aristocratic a hand. The younger fellows do not like the way they were treated last cam paign when they wanted to go out and talk on the issues—heaven knows that the issues f'om their side were non-talkable—and they claim their jealous young boss wouldn’t let them. They are sore still, and have a knife or two in their bootlegs for the ex-chairman The contest between Mr. James and Mr. Ader for the county at torneyship w r as a lively one, there being little friendship between the two gentlemen. The zeal of some of the former’s friends prevented his getting the plum, however, for it is a well-known tact that the pins were set for Mr. James, and lie would have received the position hands down, as nine-tenths of the party workers were for him. The struggle then became one of aml'itior. for Mr Ader, and Putnam’* legal advice for another year is to be hebobbled in six hundred dollar
requirements mistakes and errors by the board
merely to satisfy that $25 ambition. In the mean time the Putnam public is to get the worst of it. This is shown in the way the eommis-
NEW SCHOOL LAWS-
Some Important ChangeR Which are CAreat Improvement.
The last legislature passed two school laws that are important. The first gives to school boards the power to make levies of taxes for all purposes. Heretofore the Greencastle school board was obliged to petition the city council and the council made the levy for the tuition, which is the fund from which the teachers are paid. The Green Smith law is repealed in elfect b the passage of a law which says that if a school corporation, township, town or city spends more money than it gets from the slate then this demand can be made bv the state, and as there is not a city nor a township in the state wheie there is not a local levy made, it will be seen that the state fund will be all spent ench year. The attorney general is cut olf from all fees in regard to the collection ot any such funds. The local levy is called a supplementary fuud, and it is presumed that the state fund is spent first. Another law has been passed and that is in regard to the enumeration of school chil dren, and upon which the state fund is apportioned. This last law does not go into effect this year as there was no emergency clause. Heretofore this enumeration was to be taken between March 1 and Max 1, giving txvo months to take it, while the new law requires the whole business to be done trom the lOlh day of April to the 30th of April. Instead of enumerating the heads of families and the number of children, the enumerator has to enumerate the names of each child, age and sex, and get the signature of the head of the household that it is correct; all transients ^that is, persons under the age of twentyone and over six that are only temporarily in the city) cannot be enumerated under the new law. The taking of an enumeration un der the new law is quite a complex piece of business, and it will re quire much greater expense to take it under this law than under the old; but it will not be taken under the new law this year. Township trustees who have re ceived circulars offering them specially prepared books at a reduced price if bought at once should throw the same away. The enumeration law does not go into effect until the laws are published, as there xvas no emergency clause attached to the bill.

Several presents were also left and at a late hour the guests departed wishing their hostess many such happy birth-

Sword Contest*. Chicago, March 18.—Signor Generso Pavex, champion of Italy and America, and M. Theophile Gignac, champion of France, met in two sword contests at Tattcrsels yesterday, one mounted and tho other on foot. Pavez won both, the former by 18 points and the latter three to one.

Ah There! Fishermen. Several local fishermen have asked the Banner Times what the new fish law passed by the late legislature means. The way we understand it is that the new fish law makes a “closed” season for fish from April 1 to June 15. The secretary of state is receiving a great many inquiries about it. The taking of fish in any way from any xvaters in the state is made unlawful between those times, tins being the spawning season, and there

Noxv that congress has adjourned and the legislature has “fit to a finish,” the average newspaper reader is having a sorry time getting his money's worth out of the metropolitan newspapers. It is at this time that the home daily paper is sought after more than ever and is read closer, for the general metropolitan daily is a dull tiling these days. Help your home paper along, and at the same time get the worth of
Farmer. That, board seems bent on wrecking the county before a republican can shut off' a great share of their trickery. As au additional matter of news, the Banner Times will here announce that the county attorney drew $55 at the late session of the board. At this rate his pull for last year would amount to over $200. It would be better to put this matter of legal advice upon a fixed basis, and not have it fluctuating up and down like the mercury in a thermometer tube. In addition to the above figures a prominent attorney at the June term in 1891 was paid $50 for legal services by »he county.

The Genuine Merit Of Hood’s Sarsaparilla wins friends xvherever It is fairly and honestly tried. To have perfect health, you must have pure blood, and the best way t<> have pure blood is to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the best blood purifier and strengin bulkier, it expels ail taint of scrofula, salt rheum and all other humors, and at the same time builds up the whole system. Hood’s pills are prompt and efficient. 25 cents.
When the Mood is full of the germs of disease, and lacking in the red. corpuscles which give it vitality, when it fails to properly nourish the organs and tissues of the body, what can you expect but that tired feeling and ner-
vousness?
Of course Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Catarrh and Rheumatism are universally recognized us blood uiseuRen, for which Hood’s Sarsaparilla, ns the best blood purifier, is everywhere acknowled the greatest remedy. Therefore, ns Hood’s Sarsaparilla cures all blood diseases, it is the best remedy for that condition of the blood which causes Nervousness. It is a false idea to think you are curing your nervousness when you are taking a preparation which only quiet* your nerves! It is like trying to “drown” your sorrows in the flowing bowl. They are sure to return. We wish to make most imnressive, then, this truism: You cannot purify your blood by deadening or quieting your nerves with opiate, narcotic or nerve compounds. If you take such articles you are only trifling with your troubles. There is sure to he a reaction which will leave you worse than you xvere before. Why not then, take the true course, follow the bee-line to the state of health, iiurifv your blood and cure your Nervousness by taking
