L. T. MICIIEKEK, of Washington, but formerly of Indiana, was at New York recently telling all about Indiana politics, General Harrison's intentions, etc. If he does not know more about Indiana politics now than he did when he was the chairman of the Republican State Central (,'omniittee ami tHe Republicans were so everlastingly beaten, the newspapers that publish his statements as valuable information are sadly misled. What he does not know about Indiana politics would fill a bis book.

THE Republicans swept the country ll.is wee it wherever elections were held. George B. Swift was elected Mayor of Chicago by 41,110—the largest ever given any candidate. Rhode Inland and Michigan went Republican, as did St. Louis. Denver, Evansville, and other large cities. The contests were all one sided in fact so much so as to be uninteresting. It shows very plainly that unless something entirely unlooked for happens between now aid 1S!)(J. that the Republicans will carry all of the Northern States and many of the Southern ones.

WE trust when it conies to building the new school house the Board will arrange for a large, light and airy room on the ground Jloor suitable for a public city 1 ibrary. It will not only be of advantage to our larger scholars in the high school and in the upper grades, but to all of our people. Nothing can be more advantageous to a city than a large and well selected public library. The library would, no doubt, have to depend upon the generosity and public spirit of Greenfield's citizens for its success, and we desire to say right now that they can be depended upon.

EX-CONG ISESSMAN W. D. Bynum and family have returned from Washington City to their old home in Indianapolis. Byuum wanted to be Mississippi River Commissioner, Custom Appraiser in New York, or would take almost any other office in sight, but Cleveland said nay, nay. It almost made Bynum sick when he saw Wilson, Outhwaite, Springer aud Buck Kilgore all given fat positions, and himself, who "cuckooed" as much as any of them, left out in the cold. He just packed his traps and started for the Hoosier state. He will be found wanting office in 1896, but that will not be a healthy year for Democrats to secure offices in Indiana.

Six young ladies, who now hold silver medals, will take part in an oratorical contest for a gold medal on Friday eve., April 5, at the Christian church, at 1-M0. Come out and cheer your favorite. Admission 10c. Proceeds devoted to W. C. T. U. work. 1lt3

I ASTOUNDING TESTIMONY.

I 'Si-'. I a W N In 1 0 I Sixteen years ago my leg broke out in ulcers and was at times very painful aud I annoying. My occupa'ion, that of a barber, made it extremely difficult at times to follow my vocation. Last summer three large concerous sores as large as silver dollars broke out and eat nearly to the bone. I was unable at all to attend to my business. Your advertising agent,

Mr. H. 13. Ruby, called ou me and claimed he could cure me if I would only take your great ACME Blood Purifier and use your ACME Ointment. He went so far as to guarantee a permanent cure. I told him I had no faith iu patents of any kind. He assured me that your medicines were not of the patent order, but composed wholly of Roots and Herbs— entirely a vegetable preparation—and that you gentlemen manufactured them iu Greenfield, Ind. I had taken what seemed to me a barrel of medicine aud grew worse all the time. Mr. Ruby prevailed so hard that I finally consented to test the merits of your ACME Remedies. I have taken in all only six bottles of Blood Purifier and us id four boxes of Ointment, and am glad to say I have been completely cured. You gentlemen need not hesitate to .^ell your goods "no cure no pay." They will cure if taken according to directions. I will gladly recommend your great productions aud will cheerfully auswer any oue making inquiry of me and give tliem the best of reference that these statements are true. I have gained 19 pounds since taking the^e remedies. I am thankfulh.
