Bull Moose Cemetery Gradually Enlarging.

Osgood, Indi, May 18.—Another bull moose paper has “given up the ghost,” the cause assigned being a lack of popular support. The Ripley Banner, published at Osgood, Ind., which aspired to be the bull moose organ of thle Fourth district, was taken over last week by the Osgood Journal. In the public announcement of the suspension, approved by Editor Henry Ellwood, appears the following: “The reason which Caused the sale is the present peculiar and uncertain political conditions and lack of financial support by progressives and soTcalled progressives who live in Ripley county and this district. Mr. Eliwood and family have, since coming to Ripley county, put brains, money and hard work into the progressive paper and also into other printed matter for the upbuilding of the progressive party, and received in return what is considered absolutely no support or encouragement.” *
