REPUBLICANS. ATTENTION!
rescue of Supt. Willis Mark, of the poor farm, and then suddenly shut up like clams on the subject, will casually glance at the bar docket of the Putnam circuit court they will Qnd something of interest.. They claimed that the report of the grand jury which spoke of the management of the institution, didn’t say anything definite against the superintendent. There was some thing done, however, of a definite nature as two indictments were turned in against Willis Mark. One was for “affray” and the other for “a«sault and battery.” These, too, at the first opportunity which a grand jury had to report upon the new superintendent. There never was any such action taken against George Shoptaugh when lie was superintendent. Tne commissioners have made a grand mistake in changing superintendents of the poor iai in and nothing shows this better than the state docket of the Putnam circuit court.
It is now considered no longer fashionable to pay party calls except for very small occasions. In Greencastle where there are one or two society receptions each week at which from fifty to one hundred adies attend, the habit of having fo make a return party call is one that keeps the average society lady on the go from morning to night in making party calls. The new style is hailed with delight by Greencastle ladies, who have in justicejto the prevailing style, kept up the system of returning party calls until the same became monotonous and merely a matter of form. Parties may now be attended and no calls made in return unless the guests desire to do so, and no rule of etiquette will be violated.
Six weeks from Wednesday Christmas will be here. It’s only about fom wneks until the holiday trade opens up in earnest. Have you told the people about the im mense stock of holiday goods that you want to sell? If not, betUr begin at once. By advertising in the Banner Times you will do this thoroughly. The early advertiser catches the cream of the holiday trade.
COMMON COUNCIL.
Maw Tax Lavy and Kxtimatad KxpaaM* (or tho Comma Voar. At the first session of the council in October Councilman Handel's face wors a broad smile over the Indianapolis election news, hot at the first meeting in November the other five smiled and Mr. Handel's smile had disappeared. There had been an earthquake and a republican land slide in the mean time. The only thing to come before the council was the matter of taxes for the coming year. The estimate for school purposes was not changed and the clerk was instructed to notify the connty auditor to make it same as last year. For general purposes the rate was made 95 cents on $100, 50 cents on each p >11 and $1.00 on each dog. The new levy will provide the following amounts as estimated by the committee. Total taxables @ 95 ets, $23,773,98; taxable polls $258 ; dogs $77 ; estimated yield for license (counting but five saloons) $1250; total $35,358.98. The estimated expenses for the year are as follows: Salaries $4,000; streets $5500; lire department $3000; po lice $1500; lights $4400; water works $4600; tax refundeti $300; stationery and printing $300; li brary $500; specific $1000, total $25,700. An ordinance based on the foregoing report of the committee was passed making the rate for general purposes 95 cents. The 10 cents on the $100 and 50 cents on each poll heretofore levied for pay ment of school bonds disappears under the new ordinance, as the school bonds have all been paid off. The new rate will show a bet reduction of one cent on the $100 and til'ty cents on each poll. The following claims were al-
lowed :

Rei’L'bmcan State Com. Rooms, Indianapolis, Nov. 6, 1895. Following their usual custom the
republicans of Indiana will gather in mass qonfereuce at Indianapolis on Wednesday, Nov. 20, to exchange views and talk over the fu lure of the party.

A Cowardly Hack-Down.
The Banner Times lias contended all along that the Wabash foot hall team would never play a return game in this city. Their first ex euse was that they could not get here on a certain day. They now bob up with another one which we clip from the Crawiordsville Journal. Their last is weaker than their first and shows plainly that the team has a cowardly make up from start to finish. Here is their latest excuse. It should be framed : Wabash will not play DePauw again this season. The way the trains now run on the Monon the team would have to go to Greencastle without support, and knowing the bitter feeling existing there the boys feel that safety lies this side of Putnam county. After the terrible stoning of the train there alter last year’sgame Wabash students are leary of Greencastle. Manager Meade, of DePauw, was here yesterday and protested that Wabash would receive a square deal. It is known, however, that Mr. Meade, while personally well inclined, has absolutely no control over the dangerously rough elements of classic Greencastle.
