: Andrew Carnegie, of Pittsburg, Pa., whose ircome from his steel works is 85,000 per day, attended the Stanley wedding in London .the other day, and presented the ‘bride with an uncut diamond, far gieater in value than any of the crowned heads of Europe could afford to bestow. It was bought with the proceeds of the labor of half-paid men, .who, when wont to complain of insufficient compensation have been cowed down iJjIF Pinkerton men. The bauble too, represents the benefits of protection to —Garnegie. iff Carnegie gave Mrs. Stanley, on liar wedding day, a *ery high*.

priced present, and the Rensselaer Republican pronounces him a philanthropist! Carnegie talks of the propriety and blessings of protection to the readers of the Republican this week. With an income of $6,000 per day, why shouldn’t hi? To readers of history the Re - publican Force election bill will be a reminder of the methods proposed by George the m, and his minister, Lord North, to govern their possessions here. It cent them the loss of the colonies At a mee ing of the Republican state committee at Indianapolis, the other day, alarm was expressed with reference to their prospects in this congressional district A hint was thrown out that money would be needed. Billy Owens can be beat Just received, a complete line standard brands corsets, corset waists, Abdominal corsets and Misses corsets, sold at prices below all competition. Chicago Bargain Store, Blaine says, in his letter to Senator Frye: “The charge against the protective policy which has injured it most is that its benefits go wholly to the manufacturer and capita ist, and not at all to the farmer.” And the charge is true. He says, also, the the McKinley bill will do the farmer no good, as “There is not a section nor line in the entire bill that will open a market for another bushel of wheat or another barrel of pork.”

Pennsylvania has one republican congressman at least, Harmer, who is not afraid to express his opinion of the infamous Force Dill. He says of it: “There is no doubt in my mind that the sentiment of careful, conservative business men in the North is against it. I think they are inclined to r«. gard the bill not so much intended to insure fair elections or benefit the whole republican party as they are looked •upon as a scheme to advance the political fortunes of a few ambitious men, who are determined that the next house of representatives shall be republican, and that they shall be able to claim that they made it so.”

The Vidette tries to make it appear that The Messenger is hostile to the ambition of Mr. L. M. Pierce, chairman of the Democratc Central Committee. Th e Massonger is hostile to no man that is not hostile to it. It stands by its friends, it demands recognition and fair ' reatment, and whe that is denied or refused 5 t kicks. It asks no more for itself than it is willing to accord to others. It is not hogish, but it does not want to be ignored, it has served the party faithfully and well for twen. ty years, and is entitled io recognition and respect. When that is recognized by Mr. Pierce, and the members of the Central Commit* tee_ from Centre township, it is satisfied. Its proprieto * and editor has po further aspirations for office, either present or prospective, and is in no man’s way. It means to rive every candidate on the Democratic ticket a loyal and honest support, and in return it demands the^same consideration and support from them. It may be con ted upon in any emergency on a square deal. It has none but the kindliest feelings for mr. Pierce, and has no wish to hurt him. With these remarks it drops the matter. Thanks to the Vi dette for giving it this opporhmi ty to define its position.—Valparaiso Messenger.

In an interview with the Rochester (N. Y.) Union, Bob Ingersoll says: “I believe in protectirg what are called the infant indus* tries, bnt after these “infants” get to be six feet high and wear No. 12 boots it is about time to stop rocking the cradle, especially when the “infant” tells you that if you stop rocking he will get out of the cradle and kick your head cff.”

bam Jones, in speaking of public men, says: “Mat Quay is the personification of wickedness/’and of Mr. Cleveland, “a man with a back bone as big as a pillar, if he had not so much honesty he would have been President. ——■ ■ Do not buy cross road store cheap pants and overalls, when you can buy Cones’ Boss, at the same prices, and one pair will outwear two ;:airs of the others Chicago Bargain Store. Wm. Washburn, of Jordan twp, shipped three carloads of cattle to Chicago this week. Sherman Havens is prospecting in this county with a view to es* tablish a mule ranch. If the G. A. R. will only employ a clerk at every post to prepare applications for pensions under the the new law, it will accomplish two objects—save the “old soldiers” enormous fees, and refute the charge that the organization is controlled by claim agent 3.
