Monnett-De Peyster Girls Paid Republican a Visit.

The seventh and eighth grade girls from the Monnett-De Peyster School for Girls, chaperoned by one of the teachers, paid a visit to The Republican office Wednesday afternoon and were shown through the various departments, which they apparently enjoyed very much. These ibright young girls, who are receiving a splendid schooling at the Monnett-De Peyster, had never visited a printing office before and some of them made notes about the machinery and will hadata for interesting compositions. The linotype mcahine, job presses, the cylinder presses for newspapers and large bills, the type forms and stock rooms all had attractions for the girls and their visit was appreciated by the proprietors of the paper as well as by themselves. Benjamin F. Holden, Jr., age 12, was operated on at Lawrenceburg for appendicitis. A copper cent the boy swallowed several days ago was found in his appendix.

Beck, of Kakelee, Mich., “I bought a package of Chamberlain’s Tablets, and since using them I have felt peifectly well.

Did You Hear About It? Democrats Borrow $200,000.

_ This democratic state administration which is now being endorsed to the skies in the resolutions whieh are being passed by the various democratic conventions, is abo»ut the most regular borrower in Indiana. Only a few days ago the state treasurer announced that the bottom of the safe had been reached and that if an accumulation of bills were to be paid The money would have to be borrowed to pay them. The state borrowed $460,000 last September and the amount remains unpaid, and now; with no Tax money available until after the May tax paying, time, the state has gone out and borrowed $200,000 more to pay the. expenses of Marcji. Another borrow will probably have to be made for April and. again in May as the tax money is not due from county treasurers "until June. Evidently byrthat timewe will have borrowed almost $1,000,000 just for the every day running expenses, and the future will be mortgaged and the state will be .paying out a vast amount for interest Evidently the state is playing a sort of hand-to-mouth existence.. Indiana went democratic six years ago oh the two propositions, economy and the establishing temperance by means of township and city option. It remained democrats because of a split in the republican party and the longer it remains democratic the longer will the state debt grow and the saloon business thrive. Honest, now, Mr. Voter, no matter what party you belong to, don’t you think it is time to get back to business and put into power men who can and will pull*us out of this slough of indebtedness?

A. C. Stauffenberg, of Manhattan,. 111., came over yesterday to look after his farm interests. Mr. Stauffenberg is convinced that up to date, with all the praise that has been heaped upon Mr Wilson because of his apparent good intentions that no resident of the United States has received any benefit from his administration Foreign products have been admitted free of duty and the price of corn and other grain is believed by those who have given it much study at least 10 cents per bushel lower than it would have been if we Had not been, placed into competition with Canada and Argentine. Mr.JStauffenherg, however, has not found the price of living reduced and frankly states that if the support of president Wilson depended upon him it would .ho withdrawn in short order. It is a nice thing ‘to have “good intentions.” Mr. Wilson is credited with a brain full ,<f them, hut when coupled with a desire to aid the farmers of foreign countries and the manufacturers: and the laborers of England, Germany, France and Canada, they don’t provide any hope for home prosperity.
