Padgitt, has been quite sick Since last Thursday night with inflammation of the bowels. He is resting somewhat'better now and indications are favorable for his recovery. On next Saturday evening Senator T, E. Burton will address a rousing republican meeting at the Victoria theatre in Lafayette. Senator Burton recently led the fight in the senate against the “pork barrel,” which was being pushed so energetically, by southern senators, and his fight saved the country $73,000,000. The Cause shows are at Monticello this week. At the band concert Sunday evening it was estimated that 2,000 people were present. The Journal says there were people from Bensselaer, Medaryville and other places. In addition to the Gause shows an aeroplane is to make flights commencing Thursday morning at 10 o’clock. Mrs. W. P.

A. S. Laßue, who has been managing the store at Greenfield which and brother traded for recently, was home over Sunday and Monday. He has been in Indianapolis several times recently and says that business there is at a standstill and that he hears reports from all over the state to the effect that business is generally very dull. Traveling men report sales backward. The very warm early fall has had the effect of* deferring purchases that come with the first cool weather. The agricultural sections have not suffered so much, owing to the good crops, of last year, and the very good prices that have prevailed, but the'inanufacturing centers are hard hit and unless the Europeari war has the effect of restoring fires in the furnaces the ensuing Winter will be a very severe one. Monogram Flour is guaranteed equal to any and better than most flours, regardless of price. We have plenty of old wheat flour in stock, $1.50 per sack. ROWLES & PARKER.
Two young men, who might be called tramps, were in Rensselaer Monday, looking lor work. They were brothers and came here after working for a short time in the harvest fields of North Dakota. They report conditions very bad there and say that they tried to find work in all the cities from there here but found thousands of men out of employment. The older one said; “Mister, I’m an Irishman and was raised to believe that the democratic party was the poor man’s partly. It is, that is if he wants lots of company in his poverty. I voted for Wilson, but God forgive me, if I ever get to vote again I’ll vote the republican ticket. I never imagined such distress as I have seen with my own eyes during the past three weeks. I don’t know your politics, Mister, but if you’re a democrat, change them and vote the republican ticket” The young men cavassed Rensselaer in an effort to secure work, but found nothing to do.

It is proposed to form an organization of businessmen, build an athletic field and hire a crackerjack team. Possibly a league will be formed with teams at the following towns: Fowler, Boswell, Oxford, Hoopeston, Attica, Williamsport and Sheldon. Rensselaer ought to get in on this league. The Republican informed last week by Geprge ISiufman that he had just started to. work with his team after an idleness of three Weeks. He was offered two or three hauling jobs at $3 per day but refused to work his teairi for that price, although he reported that a number of others were doing so. Every, reader of this paper knows that men can not support their families on $3 per day and feed a team at' the high prices of feed. Teamsters should have $4.50 or $5.00 per* day. Horses are to be shod, wagons repaired and many incidentals besides the feed and the labor in the care of the animals in addition to the day’s labor with the team. Labor receives from $2 to per day, either is small enough, but when a team is thrown in at anything less than $4.50 and/ we believe it should be $5, the man is going to have a hard time getting through. Rents,' to pay, food to provide, clothing for the family and something for pleasure. It is not fair to expect a man with a team to work for such wages and it is hoped the time will come when employers meet this proposition fairly.
