After reading todays Press we are soundly eon\
that there is a wide difference of opinion between Mr. Henry Watterson and the editor of the /’. on matters democratic. Is it possible that a man of Mr. Watterson’s great ability, wide experience and i impartiality is mistaken and the Star Press is correct? Perish the
; thought.
Some of the democratic exchanges are telling their constituents, what there are b it, that their party must i ‘strip itselt for the tight. We would beg to suggest that if the |democratic party is stripped of i anything else it is liable to a fine for public indecency. It’s costume now has been stripped down to a stand-up collar, and a postage stamp between its eyes, and any 1 further stripping would be a \ io lution of the law.
from the amount of dissatisfaction expressed by good democrats from over the county there will be a reckoning on the subject when the time for voting comes. The Dem-

aw iy with altogether? Ifthe.SVor Press were to tell the truth it would have to say the total levy has been reduced, but it isn't in democratic papers to tell the truth these days. They place a discount upon the intelligence of their readers by lying to them constantly on tariff and national prosperity, and upon local matters they seek to keep up the same misrepresentations. Their readers are getting better posted hewever and will not be misled. The figures are what count aftt. - all and a reduction in taxes will he appreciated whether it comes from one source or another. The net rate in ttie city has been reduced and the Star Press knows it. In the city the present poll tax is 50 cents; in the county it is $2.50. Why is it that a man’s head is so much higher taxed in the county than in the city ! There are other matters connected with the county's new tax rate that the combined democratic editorial talent of Putnam will be called upon to explain in the near future.

“Delmonico’s at 6” is a farce comedy of high life in New York City by Mr. Glen MacDonough and will appear at opera house Wednesday November 20. “Delmonico’s at 6" has been declared a success in every city in which it has been produced. The company has been relected uuder the guidance of the clever manager, J. M. Ward, and the fullest preparations have been made for a brilliant performance. The play is a finished farcical comedy of the highest order depicting scenes among the swell people of the Metropolis, and while it is naturally amusing it constantly preserves the high tone. Every person in the cast is capable of doing a high class specialty, and is composed of Miss Nellie Dunbar, Miss Ollie Evans, Miss

Republican State Com. Rooms,
Indianapolis, Nov. (i, 1895.
Following their usual custom the republicans of Indiana will gather in iiinss conference at Indianapolis on Wednesday, Nov. 20, to exchange views and talk over the future of the party. No special invitations for the meeting have been issued, but ail republicans are cordially invited to come to the capital and join with their brethren I'roni other sections of the state in giving and receiving advice and information for the good of
cause. The recent
sources—these utilized give us per manent prosperity. It is folly to talk of making a nation prosper ous by high taxation.—Star Press. And still the organ harps on “high” taxation. If giving labor emoloyment at high wages; making a ready market for everything we have to sell; high prices for wool; farmers' horses and cattle selling at good prices and everybody pros perous as the}’ were under the McKinley method is a result of “high” taxation the people of the United States are rather out spoken on the subject of elevating it. The last two elections have shown that the people have learned (what the democratic papers won’t tell them) that the republican idea of the tariff is the correct one. In Putnam county this feeling is growing rapidly and it will he remembered that at the election in 1894 the feeling was a right lively lad. The “democratic idea” the Star Press speaks of above, has cost a deficit ol $60,000,• 000 already and is still losing.

Holiday Calendars. The holiday season, when the purse of the people is freely opened, and everyone feels the general goodwill so universal at that time, is dose at hand. The shrewd raemhant avails himself of the opportunity to present his patrons with a holiday souvenir, prized for its beauty and elegance, and which will, if in the shape of a Calendar, prove an advertisement of his business throughout the entire succeeeding year, and therefore a money maker. The Banner Times has been fortunate in securing the agency of the August Gast Bank-Note and Litho Co. of St. Louis, which is the largest manufacturing and import ing house in the country, and whose line work requires no introduction. The advantageous terms that we have made enable us to offer their medium priced and fine imported designs at prices which are unequaled, and as low, if not lower, than prices made by that celebrated firm direct.

The principal topic of conversation among the parents for the past week, has been the question of their children’s eyes. Since Dr. Shipley inaugurated the idea of making an examination of the eyes of | all school children in town and county, parent's eyes have been opened on account of the results of these examinations. Children had been blamed for not learning faster; now parents know that the trouble has been due to the defective con dition of the eyes of their children. Dr. Shipley has examined the eyes of 95 children this week and found 45 with defective vision (almost 50 per cent). This is the greatest per cent found during any week since the examinations commenced. Dr. Shipley requests parents to senci children in the forenoon, when it is possible, as so many come in the atternoon that it is impossible for him to examine all.
