STOCK GOSSIP.

C’apt. Jordan, of the National Horse Importing Company,at lowa City, lowa, writes that lie is much pleased with his advertisement in The Journal, and that they have recently made some notable sales, which indicate most certainly, increasing demand for the best grade of blooded stock. The recent sale of the grand young stallion Perer 276, N. x\ H. Stud-book of France, at Rensselaer, Ind., was especially gratifying, as 1 e was selected for his merit in competition with the eastern importing stables. We clip from the National Live Stock Journal, Chicago, the following: “Capt. Jordan, of the National Importing Co., of lowa City, lowa, writes that he sold the grand young Stallion Perer No. 276, N. D. H. Stud-book of France, to parties at Rensselaer, lad., and ‘I consider him as good a Norman horse as I ever imported.’ ” The ho. se*referred to is owned by Ad. Parkison, Granville Moody, W. K. Parkison & Sons, H. A. Barkley and John English, of Barkley township, and is pronounced by . good judges to be a very fine horse. He is 3 years old, dark gray and blockey, weighed wli m placed on the cars at lowa City, 1900 pounds. He s ill make a vast improvement on the stock of our county. We are glad to s :,i this spirit 'or improvement increasing in our m'dst, and it cannot help but be of benefit to the communßv.

OUR POLICE FORCE.

Lafayette Journal: “There is something rotten in Denmark.”- — The Lafayette police force seems to need investigaton. The Journal does not make this statement in a partisan spirit. The election is over. The assertion is based on the fact that if there is tny truth in the complaint of Hugh Early, published in yesterday’s Journal, and the explanation of Officer Powell, in this issue, there was one of the most diabolical outrages perpetrated on Hugh Early on election day ever heard of in the history of Lafayette politics. We would like for the citizens of Lafayette to put the statements of Messrs Early and Powell together and read them. It seems that Early, an unfortunate young man, was some days ajo committed on a charge of drunkenness Election day found him behind the bars. He says that John Mitchell, brother of the defeated candidate for m yor. agreed to get him out of jaii if he would vote the Republican ticket. In pursuance of this agreement a release for Ea»ly w’as procured from Mayor Caldwell on Monday, the 2d; and placed in the hands of Officer Powell, who went down io the jail Tuesday morning, took Early out of jail and started to the polls with him. Early, being released, wanted to go home. The officer asked him if he was going to keep the ‘contract,’ so says the officer, and at the same tim « he says he told Early if he did not he would be locked up in jail again. Early was locked up again for breaking the com pact,and although he had been m jail several days and had had no opportunity to get liquor he was reslated with a charge of drunkenness in order to force him back in prison. After a time, for some reason not explained, he was again released. This is a simple statement of the matter. Now what does it mean? It must mean that some part or all of the police force so far forgot itself and its duty that it entered into a corrupt and criminal contraci with this man to prostitute his vote. If the statements of Early and Charles Powell are true somebody on the police force is guilty of conduct that would put him behind stronger bars than Hugh Early had to contend with in the County Jail.

Officer Powell says he went to the Courier and C»*ll and wanted to publish a statement in reply to the article in yesterday’s Journal and that he was refused a hearing. Why? ihe Jou nal heard him and it will grant a hearing to every man. We will not say who is guilty in this outrageous affair, but we believe the liberty loving and law abiding citizens oi‘ Lafayette without regard to party, will demand an investigation and a conden. nation of the guilty. For “ways that are vain and tricks that are mean,” commend us to radical tricksters. In Indianapolis this clas£ of bummers seek to com pel members of a grand jury to aggi oe to an indictment of certain parties designated by them.

L\w Reports.—The Indianapolis News is a special favorite with the legal fraternity throughout the state on account of its daily reports of the Supreme Court deciioiis printed as fast as they are delivered < y the Court. If these abstracts cost double t e subscriplion price of the paper, and the paper contained nothing else, the lawyers of any’practice would want it. but as it is they get the decisions tor 10 cen*-s a week and a model family newspaper in the bargain. * *

A WONDERFUL BOOK.

An aeency for one of J. W. Bull’s becks is about as valuable as a well--8 looked farm without any morgtages Be seems to know by intuition what sort of books will suit the people, and be writes for the masses. He .as never yet written a book that was not a great success, but we prediet'that his latest work, “Sea and Land,” just issued by Dan Linaman & Co., of St. Louis. Mo, will outstrip all his previous efforts. It deals with subjects that u’e always irteres.ing, and he has treated them in a wav that adds fascination to interest. The Christiaa Reflector says: '‘The book is a revelation to us. Wc r.ad no idea that the subject could be treated in «uch an int-nsel interesting manner. It is a great wo.k, and we are almost persuaded to turn book agents ourselves and help to circulate It for the good it will do ” (Sue advertisement in another Bart of this paper )
