flemocrafic FRIDAY JULY 10, 1885.

The builder of tumble-down houses in New York has been sentenced to the penitentiary. The New York World says: \Buddensick charges his present misfortune to the newspapers. A great many other violators of the law share these baleful opinions entertained by Buddensick concerning the press, but the man who builds his fortune by mixing common mud in his mortar should think of the capacity of the newspapers to bring rascals to justice.”

The preachers, who last year denounced polygamy in one breath and slandered Grover Cleveland in another, will doubtless be interested to observe that more has been accomplished tdward crushing out the Mormon institution by this administratio > than was done by all the republican administrations the country has ever had. Indeed, until the man whom these preachers maligned became president no serioue attempt had been made to suppress the Mormon evil. At this time, although Cleveland has been in office only four months, the polygamists are terrified by the vigor with which he is enforcing the anti-Mormon laws, and are already eparing, it is said, to a refuge in Mexico.

A New York paper says: “Honest civil-service reformers feel indignant at the clean sweep made in the department of justice by Attorney General Garland.” If this be true, the honest civil-service reformers must have forgotten the scandalous record of the department of justice under Brewster everyone of whose appointees, it is safe to say, should be removed for the good of the service.

General Logan shamelessly states that the republicans were willing to buy St. John. Clarkson, the lowa member of the republican national committee, has also as shamelessly asserted that negotiations looki g to St. John’s betrayal of his political trust for pay were attempted. Little by little the truth of this matter will leak out. and it will then be seen that not only the leaders of “the party of God and morality,” as they themselves admit, made St. John a dishonest proposition, but that he and his friends have at all times insisted, rejected it with scorn,

The Jury in the Loucks-Lou-thain case at Delphi stood 9 for defendant and 3 for plaintiff. The Kentland Gazette implies from this that J nines G. Blaine made a happy escape by dismissing his libel suit against the Indianapolis Sentinel. Of course Blaine’s letters to William Walter Phelps, and his answers to Judge Turpie’s interrogatories were sufficient to have settled his hash.

Mr. Buchard, of the mint, appears to have disappearod. Among his Rs he refused to include “resigned,” but he has been obliged to include “removed”

Judge Hammond will preside over the Clinton Circuit Court next week.

Mr. Jackson Phegley and Geo. Hoover have returned from Hot Springs, Arkansas, the former no! materially, and. the latter considerably benefitted.

Enterprise.— Mrs Geo. Dexter supervised the construction of an incubator, and its first use has resulted in the production of a brood of about 150 chickens.

The action of the reunion Committee has been reconsidered and the reunion will be held at Win. amac instead of Monticello.

Jim Rice, the Democratic Auditor of State, recently stuffed an Indianapolis Minute reporter, as follows: “A great many people think that General Grant smokes an enormous number of cigars. I have been with him and noticed his smoking in particular. He holds a ciga. in his mouth for hours at time without lighting it I probably use twice as much tobacco each day as General G.iant did. I use from $2 $2.50 worth of tobacco each day, besides consderable plug tobacco, it is surprising how the human body will absorb nicotine. When at the Arkansas Hot Springs after my first bath the waiter in charge of the bath room said, ‘why* Mr. Rice, how much tobacco you must use!’ The room was completely filled with the fumes of tobacco that the bath had brought fjom the pores in my body”

'he Pittsburg Post: “If the character of General Black’s record for the first two and a half months of his service as commissioner of Pensions is maintained through his term, honest claimants will have cause to bless the day that replaced the politrcan Dudley with a Democratic soldier In the four months’ interregnum be ween the resignation of W. W. Dudley as the head of the pension Bureau and the appointment of General Black, during which time O. P. Clarke was Commissioner, there was no noticeable improvement in the manner in which the office was conducted. Claims continued to accumulate, and claimants grew sick and disgusted over indifference and delay, General Black entered the office March 17, and almost instantly, says the National Tribune, a higher spirit of activity and efficiency was infused ihto the employes of the bureau. The result is that now, for the fiist time in the history of the bureau, claims are being disposed of faster than they they come in, and the work of reduction has begun upon the mountain of the accumulations of years. For the year 1882 the number of certificates issued was 38,150; for 1883 01,853; for 1884 58,048, and for two and a half months under General Black 20,627. To appreciate the difference of the work under the present commissioner, it is only necessary to state thut the monthly average for 1884 was 4,838, and for this year it is 8,254.”

Rev. B. F. Ferguson now uses crutches on account of a sprained ankle.

A drunken tramp was considerably used up at the Jones establishment Wednesday. At the trial which took place yesterday before justice Purcupile, the tramp was fined $3 and costs, for drunkenness and Mary Jones $5 and costs for assau t.—Douthitfor state; Jensen for defendant.

Rensselaer had a yery creditable celebration on the 4th. A goodly number were present notwithstanding the short notice, and t£e proceedings were orderly, instructive and interesting.

Samuel m., son of Mr. and Mrs. James Peffley died at the home of his parents in Remington, Sunday, July sth, in the 29th year of his age. Isaac N. Paris, aged 57 years, died at the residence of his sister, Mrs. Joseph White, in Rensselaer, Sunday morning/last, after a protracted illness. J. W. Roberts, Esq., of Kentland, united with his friends at this place on the 4th. He returned to Kentland Tuesday.

The Reason Why.

J. J. Hawes of Indian , who was recently dismissed from the Pension Bureau, has been trying to find out the reasons for discharge but beyond Commissioner Black telling him that there was nothing against him or his standing as an efficient clerk or an honorable gentlman, he could learn nothing. —Washington Dispatch. J. J. Hawes was appointed by Colonel Dudley. Mr Hawes practiced Repulican politics in the Fifth Ward in this city. If he wants to find out the reason he was “bounced,” or at least the reason why he ought to have been ♦ ‘bounced.” h should call on the Sentinel. While he re he was one of the most offensive partisans. He had peculiar method s of carrying primary elections. In 1880 Mr. Hawes was a United States Commissioner, and during the election of that year, as will be remembered, the Republicans ransacked the Nation for thugs, thieves, repeaters and ballot-box stuffers and brought them into Indiana, into this city. Whenever Democratic vigilance succeeded in capturing one of thes : imported repeaters, he was taken before Mr Hawes as United States Commissioner, and that wor hy officer let the offender go on straw bail. After having thus violated his duties as a citizen he boasted about it as a “smart trick,” and claimed an appointment, which he got, as a reward for his infamous acts. The sooner all officeholders of the Hawes ilk are “bounced” the better it will be for common decency and the public service.— Indianapolis Sentinel.

Ponsler <fc Co. are pasturing several hundred head of cattle on their huckleberry lands in the upper Iroquise.

The “pickers” go forth to pick, dressed in gaudy array. , The cattle, attracted by the novel scene, come near to make sure what the strange, unusual sight may be. The timid searchers after fruit in immient fe-’r of the cattle, fling out their banners, and a stampede, costing to the owners of cattle hundreds of dollars is the result. Ponsler & Co. are clever gentlemen an would gladly give away the berries, bushes and all, but for the saving of their cattle ask that the merry berry pickers go not inside their enclosure.
