This week the ‘Trust’ organ, on the authority of the Indianapolis Journal, sug* gests-that county superintendents may safe.y refuse to comply with requirements of the new school book law.

All official bonds slur I be payable to ' the state of Indiana. If a trustee fails to obey at y command of the the new school book law he will violate the conditions of his bond and will be liable for damages in action thereon brought by any person injured by reason of such, violation.

ALL FOR TARIFF REFORM.

( Continued from Ist page )

“Is there a man of intelligence and candor in the United States t >- day who will now in the light, or rather in darkness, of surrounding circumstances claim for the present tariff thaf it protects the American laborer? The appalling falsehoods on this point with which the republican press ard leadeis affronted heaven and earth in the campaign of last year have all turned to scourges, thongs and whipcords in the hands of honest people with which to lash naked officials through the world. The tarmers were promised remunerative prices for what they had to sell, and the day laborer living wages for his work. More than one»third of the great states of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan are under mortgage for debt, and the farmers of t ese four states will average an indebtedness in each of them of mor* than 8100,000,000 to foreign loan associations. It is a statistical fact that tiie farmer, year in and year out, can never exceed a profit of more than 3 per cent., and much oftener makes far less. Under a republican tariff and system of finance deigned te rob him he is forced to borrew at from 4 to 8 per cent. How he, can get rich in this way can only be explained by those who contend that the more you tax men, women and children, the wealthier and more prosperous they become. As to the wage-worker in the manufactories of the country, and for whom the blessings of a high protective tariff were more especially invoked, it is only necessary for you to lift upyour eyes and behold how the fake and lying prophets of Baal have been overthrown and and confounded.

“The whole lard is filled with laborers out of employment and facing starvation with their wives and children. Last summer and fall they were promised a j aradise for the laborer in the event of the success of the republican party; dow there is not a state in the Union in wh’ch the appeal for work and the cry for bread are not constantly heard from these who were milled into the support of fraud and monopoly under the guise of protection. The future will show whether this hard experi:Dce blings wisdom, or whether the laborer is doomed to a bondage more helpless and hopeless than once prevailed on the cotton plantations of the South. The protection of a tariff paid, not for revenue, but for protection, in itself is a fraud, a cheat, a sham, and an oppression on every labor intercut in the United States.” Mr. Voorhees concluded by urging a more thorough org-mizuti >. -u e eery county in the . tate fcr tariff reform. ‘‘There is no mid die ground on this question. Once the issue was a tariff for r< venue with incidental protection; now the issue presented by the republican party is protection for monopolies, trusts ind combines, whether revenue is needed or not. We have an enormous surplus of revenue iakeu from your pockets and now in th > treasury. But there never c.in be a surplus of protection li. tn. .“«timHtioa of the Carnegies and his kind. Some say the battle ou the tariff was lost by the democratic party in the last campaign. On die contrary, the bat He has just begun and will be lo't out uiuii the right shall prevail or until w« know the worst.

For many years he had been a resident of this this, and here he reared a large family. Prominent in mercantile pursuits, he had an extensive ac« quaintance and established a lasting friendship with all. For forty years or more he had been a member in high standing of the Masonic fraternity, took great interest m and devoted much time to the study of its chershed teach*' ings which he strove to adapt to his daily walk in life, and in his association with his fellow men. Ihe f uneral services were Lelo in the Presbyterian church Mon** day afternoon, Revs. Tressler, McGuire andDwiggms officiating. The funeral cortege which followed the remains to the tomb was one of the largest ever witnessed in this locality and comprised Prairie Lodge, F. & -A. M., Eastern Star Chapter O. E. S. and a large concourse of citizens. The cornet band discoursed appropriate music, and at the grave the ceremonies were concluded with the solemn and impressive rites of the Masonic Order. jMr. and Mrs. Zimri (Purcupile) 1) wiggins, and Mrs, Newell, of Chicago, Mis. John Purcupils and son, of Neb., Frank Purcupile, of Brooklyn, N. Y., Jne. Jackson r <nd wife, of Logansport, Henry Downof Goodland, Dick Howe, of Franklin, Neb., and Mrs. Samuel Smith, of Fowler, were present.

Thousands of employes in the “protected n oke industries” of Pennsylvani i have gone out ou a st ike for living wages this week. It seems the “tariff” is not proof against the cravings es hungar.

OBITUARY.

ARCHIBALD PURCUPILF. The deceased was born Nov. 10 1818, in Pittsburg, Penn., died July 27, 1889. He moved with his parents to Massilon, Ohio, when quite young. He was married April 14, 1840 to Elizabeth Howe, of Akron, Ohio. Five sons and four daughters was the result of this Union, all of whom are yet living except one son who died in infancy. He removed with his family to Lafayette. Led , in 1849, where he r ■maine ! a eounle of ye-iis. v.kn h 1 .a t»»-rsse-icer, Indian.: wi. ~ ■ heergagt I in the mercantile h 1 -’uors.

Ihe larger pcriic-n . f his life i was spent in our town r.nd county. He was a faithful and loving husband, an indulgent and kind parent; a true and firm friend, an esteemed ami worthy ■ >tizen and neighbor, a conrteons >■ ;d pleasant gentleman, in his long and active | business life and intercourse with i friends and neighbors he maintained that purity of life and conscience which marked him the peer of his associates. He was a person of strong convictions and his daily waliis of life were of the right. His aim in act and word was to better mankind and *■ levat * the society in which he moved. “Trusting when the Sabbath rest is given, To share the richer joys of Heaven.”' During his last tickness, which resulted from a fall received some time in January last, he always maintained a firm and trustful reliance on Him who orders all things well. Anxious for his recovery if in accordance with Divine will, yet he repined not that all things were not ordered to his wish. Though, at all times he suffered intensely, his last moments were of peace and joy, he passed away quietly and with firm consciousness that he woui oon j'in the innumerable . ior.g of the holy and good, “beyond the smiling and the- weeping” into the delightful realms of eternity—awaiting the coming of the wife of his youth and manhood and the weeping children left behind, when they too shall have passed over the silent river to join the dear husband and fond father gone before. ***

Mother, try and weep no more. For fatber’a on the other shore. Angels took him there to rest. God does all things for the best. Over there he’s free from pain, What is our loss is his gain. Shouldn’t we then in a measure be Glad he’s from earthly sorrows free ? There he’ll walk the golden streets. Shaking hands with friends he meets.. And when our flight from earth we We’ll find him waiting at the Golden Gate. The earthly life is scarce a breath, Compared to life we gain by death. Tnen let us not his ways regret. Our sorrows remember to forget. J. F.H. Smoke the Mascot. Everybody! smoke the Mascot. Try Al Buyers’ hand made Mascot cigar, only 5 cents.
