Annual tour, 1910,” meaning the American Automobile Association has a member in the car's owner. Occasionally some driver goes through who indicator that he thinks his car is the first one that ever went this way, and occasionally some fellow goes through who forgets that there is a law limiting the speed of travel.

Monument Will be Ready for Unveiling July 4th, Except That All the' Names Cannot he Completed.

Mt.Ayr’s New Editor Evidently Intends to be Very Hostile.

F. B. Robertson, the mew editor of! ttihe Mt. Ayr Pilot, evidently Intends to. become very hostile to the town of! Rensselaer, Judging from the appended! .article Since Rensselaer newspapers! gave Robertson a big jpadf when he| took the paper over from Lesley Miller sand inasmuch as Rensselaer merchants i are liberal advertisers in'the Pilot, we mre wondering what basis there is in the grudge. But if the editor don’t think Rensselaer is going to have a 4th of July celebration, he can just mtay away and see if we care. Rens•Selaer is on the map, all right, gets, the crowds, pleases them, and the celebration this year will be no exception,' Robertson or no Robertson, Pilot or Pilot. Here is what the Pilot says: Rensselaer' will have a celebration on the 4th. Do you believe it? I don’t. It never had enything to call a crowd hat a foot hall team, nothing to let people know that the town was more than a fly speck on the map aside from the McCoy bank failure. You newspaper fellows needn’t deny It. If you do, my friend Lou Shirer, formerly of Jasper’s celebrated sand dunes, will invite you to his honor’s circus.

Noted Temperance Lecturer to Speak In Rensselaer Thursday.

Oliver Wayne Stewart, probably the most eloquent teinpehmee lecturer in Indiana, will deliver an address at the Christian church Thursday evening June 16th, to which all are invited to be present. Mr. Stewart bears the reputation of offending no one but of talking

temperance, local option and state wide prohibition in a manner that is calculated to instill the truth in the hearte and minds of his hearers. He has been highly honored in many ways, ran on an independent ticket and was elected by a majority of 800 in the Hyde Park, Chicago district, to the Illinois state legislature. Last year he attended the great convention of the Church of Christ at Pittsburg and was selected from among all the delegates to deliver the temperance sermon. He is now the field secretary of the American Temperance Board. All are invited to hear him at the Christian church next Thursday evening, June 16th. Printing -that pleases. “We print anything for anybody,”—The Republican.

HOUSE PASSES THE POSTAL BANK BILL.

Republicans Cast a Solid Vote for the Meusure Recently Agreed Upon by The Caucus. Washington, D. C., June 9.—By the overwhelming majority of 195 to 101 the house tonight passed the postal savings bank bill as recently agreed upon by the republican caucus of the house. Not a single republican voted against the measure on the final roll call. Under the terms of the postal savings bank bill passed by the house tonight a board of trustees is created consisting of the postmaster general, the secretary of the treasury and the attorney general who shall declare what post offices shall become savings hanks. Deposits in these banks made by anyone shall not be more than 8100 a month or exceed a total of 8500. An account may be opened with 8L but stamps of 10 cents each will be issued for those desiring to accumulate money to be deposited. On deposits 2 per cent interest per annum is to be paid. Deposits may be exchanged for government securities to be issued in denominations of 820, 840, 860, SBO, 8100 or 8500 to bear interest at 2% per cent per annum. The money accumulated in the postal savings banks is to be deposited in both national and state banks in the

vicinity of the postofflees in which the money is deposited by the people, such bank to pay 214 interest. Five per cent of the total deposits is to be retained by the secretary of the treasury as a cash reserve. Not more than thirty per cent of these deposits may he withdrawn by the government at any one time for investment in bonds of the United States. The remaining 65 per cent to remain on deposit in the banks. The banks are required to give as security for the deposits they receive “public bonds or other securities supported by the taxing power” which restricts such securities to some form of national, state, municipal o rother such bonds approved by the board of trustees in charge of the postal savings banks. The hill passed by the house as a substitute for the senate bill, differs from the senate measure in many particulars, chiefly in respect to the nature of securities that may be given bjr banks for the deposits of postal s&v-t ings funds received by them. In addition to government, state and municipal bonds, various other classes of securities such as mortgages, etc., may be received. . | The advance of from 15c to 25c on the wholesale price of pineapples this week over last, makes the Home Groccery’s big pineapple -sale look extra good and shows that their judgment was right. . /
