FRIDAY JUNE 10 1887 Uttered at the po»toffice at Reneaelaer, Ind., as second.claaa matter.)

Small pox is reported at Lowel, Ind* The report further states a few days since a person died, and that many attended the funeral ignorant of the cause of death, A grand reunion o r the Blue and Gray is announced to be held at Evansville in September. Faragut Tost, G. A. R., of that city, will have charge of the matter. — Leading generals, who fought on either sides, will be invited In the appointment of a President of the Insane Hospital Board Governor Gray gives the same reasons as influenced him in the appointment of Mr. Flac k as a Trustee, viz: “Dr. Harrison has held the office for four years, and his term of office has expired. There ;s no hold-over whic the law provides for, and it is the business of the Governor t j supply vacancies as fast as they occur.” Many friends of Mr. Carson pressed his appointment and Im received it Governor Gray took not a particle «of stock in the campaign lies m -n----ufactured by the “self-constituted civil-service commission”—or, the •“commission of frauds”—and retailed over the State by Ben Harxison and the Republican press. ■■■■—— ■ —■ .■. The effort of the radical press to make a statesman and patriot of Stcntaa will only serve to bring to the rurface the real character -of the man. He was a doublefaced coward and tyrant. Correct, impartial history will relate to future generations the true story that but men the country would never Have been precipitated into civil war.—Tuat but for the ■obstruct’ons placed in the way of the “boys in blue,” after the war commenced, by the Stantons, peace ■would have been conquered in V 2, and the Union restored.—That the unwarranted sacrifice of blood and treasure made necessary by the sets of these men, will properly be charged to their account. They will occupy a position in history along side the Neros of the world.

Horace E. James, in his Message, says: [Under the “retrenchment and reform'’ administration of public affairs which is now enjoyed by the people of Hie United States, this letter vas only six d ! ys on the route; whil? under the corrupt and -dillatory administration which preceded letters have been three days coming over the same distance J Of course the above was intended as a complaint and thrust at the Democratic administration; an attempt to create the impression that the postal clerks in its employ aie sadly incompetent, if not, indeed, careless. But unfortunately for our slick, sharp brother, his scheme to draw the wool over the •eyes of his few readers, will fail to bear fruit in accordance with his desire. A postal clerk says: “The truth is that every head clerk or the through mail lines going out of here is a Republican. They handle the letters and are responsible for every mistake made in their delivery.’ The fact is Mr. Cleveland has not made it a point to “turn t e rascals out,” and they remain in the service to hatch up such deviltry as the ex-consul complains of, and in the performance of his part of the programme, he hastens to attach blame fn the administration. 1

Humiliatxd Beyond Measure —Captain W. J. Hilligass, of Anderson, Ind., is chief of the eastern division of the pension bureau. Captain Hilligas is an uncompromising democrat. There is none better than he. A few evenings since the captain was conversing with one or two of his dem cratic friends from Indiana, when in the course of their conversation he remarked: “1 was never more humiliated in my life than I was to-day. I got an order or request from some one upstairs to select a good democrat from my division. I was + old they wanted a good, reliable man, as it was < esirable to put him on some special work. Ido not know wh t the nature of the work was, but I was cautioned to be sure and send up a good democrat. Well, would you believe it, when I looked over my division of 150 clerks the only democrats that I could find were myself, the second assistant chief and a colored employe.” The Perns Ivania legislature has passed a law abolishing the ‘company store” business in that state; and it will propably amount to as much in practice sth ■ law forbidding children of a certain age to work in the. mines—that is to say will amount to nothing. A more infamous form of slavery than this company store system works wo’d be hard to concoct. A monopoly in supply, compulsory in its action, it adds from one-fifth to one-fourth to the cost of everything, and et the end of the month has the miner generally in debt or his occount about a “stand off.” No more infamous slavery was ever desir d than this. M-antime, the mine owner who dees this and who knocks down wages ty importing contract labor is protected in his product by a tariff, for which the miners who are bled by him are expected to vote year after year.— Indiatapolis News. z And yet the News does not reach the infamy of the thing, 'v e have known instances where the father and two sons of an ordinary sized family, employed in the iron industry, having steady employment and receiving what was regarded as fair wages, whose combined earnings was insufficient to balance accounts in the “company stor books.

Gresham Again Differs From Woods.—The opinion of •Judge Gresham in what is known a 3 the “stallion case” was filed to-day, in which he sees aside the rulings of Judge Woods and holds that the stalh ns involved in these proceedings, and which are now in charge of Collector Kuhn, were imported for speculation purposes, a’d are, therefore, subject to an ad valorem duty of 20 per cent. The case will now be tried on its merits, and, if favorable to the government in the submission of _r.acts, will result in the [confiscation of the animals, which are valued at s2o,<'oo. Albert and Wesley Fanson, of Toronto, Canada, are t b e real owners of the animals, and they were admitted free of duty on the affidavits of Henry Prin e and Scott Galloway, filed with the collector at Port Huron, in which they al--1 ged that they were the owners, and that the animals were imported for breeding purposes. Judge Gresham finds that they were not the oners, and that the other allegation is also untrue. This decision is quite comforting to District Attorney Sellers.—lndianapolis News. The members of the Ladies’ Industrial Society of the Presbyterian church are requested to attend the meeting at Mrs. F. J. Sears’ next Thursday. Impoitaut business to be transacted.

Childrens' Day Observances.

Next Sunday will be Children’s day at the M. E. church. This is getting to be an institution in all our churches. Instituted by the Methodist people just after their their Centennial celebration in 1866 as a day sacred to the children and educational work, the propriety of it has been recognized in some form by almost all Protestant communions, Hence they observe a Sunday about this time of year, either as Children’s Day or Floral Sunday, or some such name. The Methodists, however, in this as in their work in general, give to this the force and character of a great connectional enterprise, and so devote the day to the interests of education, and the offerings of the children are all sacred to the use of poor boys and girls who may be seeking preparation for religious work, either at home or in the foreign

field.

Children's Day at the Baptist Church.

Children’s Day was observed by the scholars of the Missionary Baptist Church, Sunday evening. Owing to the damp and stormy weather, neither the audience nor the collection were as large as usual. The evening was devoied to songs, recitations and scripture readings. Bro. C. C. French, of Brookston, was present and sang one of his popular solos. The children acquitted themselves to the entire satisfaction of the very appreciative audience. The collection amounted to $3.60. Mamie C. Spitler, Sec’y. Drs.
