'The Democratic Sentinel OFFICIALPAPKB OF JASPBBCOUNtr. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 28, 1881

Removal !

The Sentinel Office has been moved into rooms one door east of Makeever’s New Hotel, where we will be pleased to greet our friends in future. Judge B. B. Daily, of Delphi, died in tlinf city on the evening of October 18th. Edmunds, in his spite, pronounced the presidency pro. tern. of the senate, when conferred upon Mr. Bayard, as a “prize drawn from the lottery of assassination.” A miserable falsehood! It was a prize drawn from the resigrietionsof Conkling and Platt.

Delphi Times: John Heltzell attempted suicide Friday last by throw ing himself in Deer Creek, near the dam. Ho was discovered soon ast p r, carried home and resus itated by hard labor. Despondency caused by ill health is supposed to be tire reason for the act, The Presidential office to day is a “prize drawn from the lottery of assassination.” Hayes held the posi tion four years, a '‘prize drawn from the lottery of fraud.” The radical party has held for many years the prize, drawn from the lottery of vio lenoe to the written laws of the land, corrup .ion, fraud, etc.

It is probable that Conkling will go into the cabinet. It w’ould not be a blunder in Edmunds to say, in tha t event, Roscoe held a prize diawn from the “lottery of assassination.”— His declaration will apply to every appointment made by Arthur, who exercises authority by virtue of the assassination of Garfield. John Sherman the other day de manded an investigation of his acts as Secretary of the Treasury, when up jumped Edmunds to remark that such an investigation would be “im practicable.” Edmunds should have continued his Jenksinian role by adding—“and unnecessary, as he could vouch for his honesty.” The farce would then have been complete. Indianapolis Journal: Murray Keller, general ticket and passenger ag’t of the Louisville, New Albany and Chicago road, was in the city Saturday, and he remarked that the Journal would be safe in saying that by February trains would be running into Indianapolis over the Chicago and Indianapolis Air Line. This enterprise is backed by the same parties who own the L. N. A. and C. road.

Scoville, Guiteau’s brother in-law and attorney is reported as saying recently: “There is more of politics in the case than most people imagine.— I intend that everything connected with the crime shall be developed, and if I should have a Stalwart to help me he might antagonize this course. If it is necessary I shall not hesitate to bring out the connection of Conkling with the inception of the crime. The Stalwart schism was responsible for the mat .er, and shall be placed where it belongs if I can sesecure that result.”

The New York Sun refers to the remark of Senator Edmunds that the election of Mr. Bayard was a prize drawn from the lottery of assassination, and says: “It is an absurd stretch of fanatical partisanship on the part of Mr. Edmunds: but this absurdity is much less culpable than the act of the same Edmunds in 1876, when he conspired with others, in some respects worse than himself, to set aside the Presidential election, and to put Rutherford B. Hayes into the office to which Samuel J. Tilden had been chosen. Then he was ready to commit an unheard of crime to keep out the Democrats. Now his conduct is less atrocious, but his spirit is the same. It is not a spirit either of high patriotism or of sound rationality.— Guiteau and Edmunds seem to be about equally irrational.” Aud the Sun might have added, equally infamous. Delphi Times: It appears that, as the Times of last week asserted, the furore of opposition to the circulation of “mutilated” silver coin is an unmitigated humbug, based upon an endeavor of certain shrewd speculat ors to profit by the gullibility of the public. Like most movements of the kind, it originated in New York. The initiative was taken by the hanging up in different conspicuous places of the following placard:

NOTICE! : : The United States Government : : fixes the value of : : Silver Coins with holes in them : : or otnerwise mutilated, as follows: • : Dollars, - - - 65 cents : • Half-Dollars, - - 35 cents : Quarters, |- - 15 cents : : Dimes, - - - 5 cents : .’ Half-dimes, - - 4 cents : With a view of preventing the mu- • tilation of United States > : specie money. • • •

The absurdity of such an order did not appear to strike f the public, and soon the crusade thus illegitimately inaugurated in New York extended throughout the country, and thousands of thoughtless persons submitted to the extortion which dis counted a silver dollar with an. inflnitessimal hole in thirty-five pei. cent. If people would stop but a moment to consider they would know that the s ilver in the coin possesses an intrinsic value as bullion, and is thus accepted by the government mints.— The attention of the Director of the

Mint having been called to the move- | ment, he issued the following circular: ; Treasury Department, i Bureau of the Mint, < Washington, D. C. J The Government has fixed no valuation qgon mutilated coin other than -xhe market value of the silver they bontain. They are purchased at the fnint by weight as bullion, and the value depends upon the price of silver on the day the coin is received at the mint. At present the pi ice paid by the mint at Philadelphia is $1,121 per ounce fine. Horatio C. Burchard, Director. Mutilated coin, when received at the mint is tr« at«*d just as other coins. No attention is paid by the mint uu thorities to the face value of a coin, tia t< al value being ascertaiue I en t rely bv weight. There are now in circulation thousands of edins which are largely reduced in real value by wear—much more, in fact, than coins Ahicn have suffered by tiny ordinary perforation. It is full time that people would take the sober second tho’and accept the coin at their full face value. No loss will be sustained by any one, and the convenience of the general public will be largely subserved.

Union Skraps.

Health good. Roads getting dry fast. Weather warm and cloudy. Several of the boys have gt ne to the prairie to husk corn Messrs. Broady and of Carpenter, bought several fat cows and heifers in Union last week. Enhraim Sayers, of this township, on the petit jury for the October term, Circuit Court, was not hand when the court convened. Fined $5 and costs. Quite a number of our citizens are witnesses in the cause us the State vs Hayes. Lineas Martin, of Marion, enjoyed quite a ride Friday night summoning witnesses iu this township. He left Rensselaer at 9 p. m.. and returned at sunrise the next morning. We would like to inform Miss L.— Polka and Waltz, we mean—that two parties are writing over the signature of Grape Island, and that our fair antagonist is mistuKen as to the writer of the items she refers to. The fellow she should attack is only 5 feet 10. We thank you, Miss Polka and Waltz, for hoping that we “will keep in the straight and narrow path” from which we have never yet departed. We were rather unfortunate not to know that Polka and Waltz belonged to the“wimmin” ‘side of the house.’ Had we known that we would never have ventured to enter into any controversy withP. and W., because we“ are always ready as “a lord of ereatien,” to concede everything in reason to the opposite sex. We always have dreaded an angry woman,s pen or tongue.

The Meeker family recently made a dinner on toad stools, wnich they had mistaken for mushroons. and were for a time very sick, GB APE-ISLAND. October 23,1881. Those fine dress, and Freneh Cashmere shirts are to be purchased, cheaper than elsewhere, at & Farden’s opposite the Nowels House.

Beauty, wit and sense combined, Are centred in the human mind. Gui—teaus the mark. Raining to-day. W. Price is plastering Isaac Walkers house. W. P. is a substantial workman. John Smith has found his calves that had been missing for some time. George Davisson and wife, of Attica, were up last week attending to some business. Buy your choice groceries at Casey’s. John English will move into his new dwelling this week. Corn husking is in full blast, and the crop has been damaged considerable by the late rains. Wheat is growing fine, but it is feared that it will get too large. D. L. Pritchard and family have reached their destination, College Springs, lowa, and have sent for their goods which were started the 24th Inst.

Euchreville is booming boominglyMr. Day has returned from Kansas, where he had been visiting relatives and friends. Mr. A. F. Florence and wife, of Delphi, paid their friends a very pleasant visit last week. School is progressing finely at the “Star,” and, by the way. the Trustee has teachers for all the schools except Smith, Isaac Tapp has been husking his corn in Marion township during the past week. Sylvester Galbreth, of this township, was married last week to Miss Mary E. Davisson, of Attica. May joy go with them. Stock is still doing well. Owing to the late frosts and cool weather blankets are in good demand. Considerable excitement was raised on Nubbin Ridge last week over some difficulty which arose between the families of Mr. Helvus aad Mr Petty, concerning the shooting of a dog. We understand that the former came out victorious. We had to shed a few crocodile tears of sympathy with the unfortunate party. J. W. Norman and bride have not yet returned from their wedding tour. Are expected back this week.

Institute at Centre school house on Friday October 4,Mr. D. B. Nowels, the county superintendent, has promised to be present. All are invited. William Tyler, ex-trustee of Keener, is husking corn in this township, this week. Health was never better.

The Province and Efficacy of Prayer

The late William O. Bartlett, the distinguished lawyer and journalist, before his death, gave expression to the following beautiful thoughts on the province and efficacy of prayer; PRAYER—A UNIVERSAL INSTINCT. “There is, just at present, a particularly animated discussion going on as to the province and efficacy of prayer, “It is very easy for unbelievers to ridicule prayer. They say: ‘Does it rain when you pray for rain?’ ‘Does it stop raining when you pray for sunshine ?’ “Then they laugh at the idea that a universe which is manifestly governed by general laws, should be influenced by special prayers. “In reply to all this it may be stat ed, that all spiritual and religious affairs are enveloped in mystery. We see them as through a glass, darkly. “But what seems to us a very powerful argument in favor of prayer, and, indeed, unanswerable, is the universal instinct to fall down before a higher power and petition for help and relief under afflictions for which there is no human remedy. “By the deathbed of our beloved who would not pray? “Then it will not do to make light of prayer-- to attempt to ridicule the whole world on its knees; for alike saint and sinner the revered pastor and the pirate in a storm—supplicate the same God for forgiveness and preservation.”

Ho Did Not Advertise.

A nervous-looking man went into a store the other day and sat down for half an houi or go, when a clerk asked if there was anything she could do for him. He said no: he didn’t want anything, She went away, and he sat there half an hour longer, when the proprietor went to him and asked if he wanted to be shown anything. ”No,” said the nervous man; “I just wanted to sit around. My physician has recommended perfect quiet for me, and says, above all things 1 must avoid being in crowds. Noticing that you did not advertise in the newspapers, I thought this would be as quiet a place as I could find, so I just dropped iu for a few hours of complete isolation.” The merchant picked up a bolt of paper cambric to brain him. but tne man went out ” He said all he wanted was a quiet life. Lots of Ladies’Dre»s Goods. Cash, meres, etc., handsome m style, extra in quality, and lower in pi ice than any «ver heretofore offered in this market. Call and see, at Ralph Fendig’s. A poor Irishman applied foi relief, and upon some doubts ed as to whether he was a proffer Object for relief, he enforced his suit with much earnestness. “Och.Jyer Honor,” said he, “I’d been starved long since but for me cat.” “But for what?” asked the astonished magistrate. “Me cat,” replied the Irishman. “Your cat? How so?” “Oc-h. yet Honor. I sowld her eleven times for a quarter a time, and she was always at home before I could get t here meself.”
