-A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”

The spring elections havi a democratic tinge. Gains in Michigan, Ohio and other states. The Wilson oil! is hard on the Shoddy business. People can buy pure, unadultered woolen goods cheaper than the could shoddy goods under republican legisla tioD. Under the Wilson “free trade tariff,” we are exporting greater quantities of manufactured goods than ever before, and are invading the markets of the world to an ex. tent never known before. This could not be sc if our workingmen were not pretty generally employed. McKinley or Harrison, it is all the same to 1 diana democrats.— Both are tarred with the same stick —a high protective tariff, and that means high-priced blankets, dotn ing and almost every article used in the household. As Capt. Ritter says, “Harrison will be beaten next time worse than he was in 1892,” and McKinley and his record will be so thoroughly ventilate ed by November that his party will want to substitute even “Bill” Chandler for him. —Indianapolis Sentinel.

In the seven months ended Jan. 31, 1896, the exports of manuiactures from the United States amounted in value to $126,892,461, against $104,607,101 during the corresponding period in the year previous. This is the largest exportation of American manufactures for the same numbei |of months in the country's history. The year 1896 began most auspiciously with exports of American manufactures, amounting in value in January to $18,732,547, against $13,101,738 in. January, 1895, At this rate of increase the exports of American manufactures for the current year will exceed 1350,000,000. Judge Kirkpatrick, of Kokomo, recently rendered a decision which is of interest to every city. In a case venued from Logansport wherein Hon. Rufus Magee was the plaintiff and the Overshiner telephone company the defendants Judge Kirkpatrick decided that the assignment of ground for street or traveling purposes gave telephone companies no right to use it unless property owners gave their consent. In other words the granting of a right of way br ngs the street to a use not contemplated w.ien the easment for street purposes was granted by property owners to the public.

Silver and Protection.

Unless the demands of the silver men are recognized and conceded there will be no tariff legis lation enacted cither by the present congress or the next. The silver men will control the next senate. They will not yield to the behests of the protectionists. The Wabash Times explains the situation correctly when it says: ‘ln 1890 the free silver men in congress cooly informed the eastern protectionists that whenever they would promise to push thro’ some leg:slation in favor of silver, they would vote for the McKinley bill and not before. The result was a trade by which the McKinley high protection measure and the Sherman silver law were enacted. But the eastern Republicans, atter the law had been passed, broke faith with their fellow conspirators and helped to repeal the silver law at the instance of a Di mocratic administration. Now the sil er Republicans of the west remember this get of treachery, and calmly sit back in their chairs with folded armsi waiting until the protection Repupfcais get ready to pass a free silt er measure as a part of the higti tariff law b fore they will permit any action whatever to be taken And until the attorneys for tm eastern manuiac.turers agree 1 t- go into cahoots ; with the attorn >ys for the silver mine owners thtre will be no legl islation.”

This ie something tha* had never happened before that can be ascertained, and accordingly April sth was fixed as Easter Sunday by the almanac makers.

TALKED INDIAN.

Dr. Mendenh; 11 Meets a Couple of Old Acquaintances at Crawfyrdsville. The ’Crawfordsville Argus in a recent issue told bow Dr. Mendenhall, of this city, had entertained an old friend and recounted old time occurrences in Indian language. |The Argus said: Dr. Mendenhall, the Lafayette physician who makes monthly visits here, is entertaining at the Sherman house to-day M . L. Allison, a well known western scout, and Waukal Akicita. a full blooded Sioux Indian. Dr. Mencenhall and Scent Allison were old cronies od the western plains years ago and when the lat ter, who was passing thro’gCrawfordsville, learned thaijthe doctor was here, he decided to stop off and pay him a visit. Scout Allison is en route to Dayton, Ohio, to urge a claim of about $5,000 which he has against the government and his red skinned companion is a witness in the case. Allison was engaged in government service during the Siuux outbreak jf 1881 and was offered extra inducements providing he succeeded in causing the Sitting Bull Indians to surrender. He did so and is now out tor the extra inducements that were then offered. Waukal Akicita, or Celestial Soldier, as be is familiarly known, is a first class specimen of one of tbs most powerful tribes of 'a race that is rapidly being crowded out of existence . He is forty years of age and is no* as well up in English as might be ex*> peeled from one who has traveled and seen as much as has his Indianahip. He was with Saulsbury’s Buffalo Bill crowd that made the European tour a few years ago and was also a member of Bill’s Wild West aggregation at the woi Id’s fair. Celestial Soldier is a right clever sort of a chap and while he cannot carry on a very animated conversation he e joys having callers —Lafayette Journal.

Have They Your Name? The National Circular Dln'ributore’ Aasoclatlon had a convention at Philadelphia recently, and in the reports and papers which were read seme rather remarknble facts were developed. In 1805 nearly 65,000,000 circulars were distributed by the members of the association. Various methods are resorted to by which new names and addresses are obtained. One of these which has been the most successful is the buying of letters from customers to manufacturers and dealers. At least 30 bureaus make a practice of buying aud selling letters. One Philadelphia letter broker has a collection of addresses which is worth $250,000. It includes 400,000 catarrh eases, 85,000 one-armed men, 65,000 one-legged men, 11,500 amateur detectives, 7,800 inventors, 22,000 “new” doctors, 14,000 hair dye men, 38,000 bald heads, besides many other classes of possible buyers.
