INDIANA will have about 180,000,000 bushels of corn this year. The Kansas crop is estimated at 400,000,000 bushels. When it hits, Kansas is the greatest corn State in the Union.

The United States officials estimate our corn 1 crop this year at 2,400,000,000 bushels, which is 200,000,000 bushels above any previous year. The indications are the demand will be first-class and the price good.

There were a number of very pleasant contractors here bidding on our school building. To a man they spoke of Greenfield a growing and progressive city, but said you need a new hotel and a court hon.-e to round up everything nicely. •We will I: .ve both, gentlemen, in the

near future. THE York Herald accuses Republicans of beiag "calamity howlers." But is that as bad as "Democratic calamity makers?" The Herald pompously announces: "The country is on the high road to prosperity." True, it is, but where would it have been if Wilson, free trade and wildcat bankiug advocates had

not been

smashed? Upon the downfall

of Democracy rests the hope of returning prosperity,—Ex.

THE "cuss" habit has ttiken such a firm hold on some people that they are continuously swearing without the least nrovocation. In walking along the street they will say that an absent friend has the blankety, blank, blanked nerve of any man in towu, and that another man is a good fellow. Ladies and gentlemen in going along the street are compelled to hear oaths from a crowd of men and boys, that ought to fchock a wooden Indian. It has been suggested that a Keeley cure should be established for curing the cuss habit. Who can stand up and say he is proud of Lis swearing? If you cannot, quit it.

OUT in Nebraska a new A. P. A. police law was passed to go into effect August 1st. One faction, those that are in,claim it is not constitutional and ask that the Attorney General ask the Supreme Court to decide the question at once. They ask this as they say to avoid che danger of serious disturbances and probable loss of life and destruction of property on account of a conflict between the present iucumbents and the appointees under the new law. The Attorney General very promptly refused their request. As a law abidine citizen he believes all people should obey the laws as they find them, and then there would be no .occasion fcr bloodshed. But the Attorney General refuses the prayer. In a letter to the Governor he says: Where are such threats to end if one set of men have a right to say 'We will obey no law enacted by the Legislature until the court has passed upon its validity, then all men have that right. No one knows better than you that that is not the law. It is your duty as well as the most humble citizen to obey the law until the court has declared it invalid. Any other course leads to anarchy. The law under which the present Board of Fire and Police Commissioners are acting expires on the 1st of August by act of the Legislature. Who is to say it does not? Tha man who is not pleased with it? No. The man who did not agree with the Legislature politically? No. "Governor, this whole matter is in your hands. If men are killed their bloed will be upon your head. All you have to say to those who would defy the law is, that while you are Governor of the State of Nebraska you propose to enforce the laws as you find them on the statute book until they have been repealed by the Legislature or annulled by the court. Tell them they have nothing to fear by obeyance to the law. "I will take no step with you in defiance of law, but I assure you I will join heartily with you in bringing about an early decision as to thevalidility of this law as soon as possible after it goes into effect In closing-let me beg yon, in the name of the law-abiding citizens of the State, of which we are so proud, tike no step that will discredit you, or discredit the State, or injure our reputation for pe&ce and .good order ofthe metropolis of Nebraska, tki the man who woulk^ncourage anarchy know at oncB

The Blueriver Resort Written Up by a Law

Abidiug

Citizen.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN—Blueriver township contains no city or town, yet to the shame of the township and law, it must be said that after all our boasted civilization and high sense of morality, and in defiance of civil law and all laws of decency, there does exist and flourish within its borders and near the winding stream ot Blueriver, one of the most disgraceful resorts to be found upon Hoosier soil. With new recruits fresh from the prison cells of Shelby vire this house

of prostitution now contains six regular ly installed prostitutes. With open doors and bold front this iniquitous brothel denies admittance and entertainment to neither the gray haired sire nor the beardless youth. Our public highways are paraded for twenty-four hours in the day by an army ot drunken scoundrels, who spare none with their insults, neither virtuous ladies nor the little lassies of our neighborhood. And we regret to say that the fair city of Greenfield, the towns of Carthage, Morristown and Charlottesville furnish their quotos to these drunken mobs. The citizens of this vicinity have long since reached the limit where "forbearance ceases to be a virtue." We would especially call the attention of the officers of the law whose duty it is to suppress these vices to the existing state of affairs at this place.

This is a most propitious opportunity for our new and worthy deputy prosecuting attorney to wi I laurels and fame and the lasting regards of respectful citizens of ^his vicinity and the county at large by giving these criminals—these worse than brutes—an early and vigorous prosecution. If not speedily stamped out the coroner will certainly have duty to perform at this place, for murder has been narrowly averted upon more occasions than ou'e. Unless the law is speedily enforced and these lawless characters brought to justice, the citizens will surerise up in their might and mete out such punishmeLt as?, seems suitable for such iniquity. A CITIZEN. [The Eagle's Nest, an evil resort in Blueriver township, was raided Saturday night and the "madam" with one inmate was brought here and lodged in jail. We do not know that the resort referred to and the Eagle's Nest are one and the same place, but if so, "Citizen" can rest assured if the people of that neighborhood will prove to be good witnesses the resort can be knocked higher than Gilderoy's kite.—ED.]

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been ablejto cure in all its stages and that isCatarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constituational disease, requires a constitulr.tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken ^internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surface of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and givii the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they Offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of Testimonials. Address.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Possibly no woman would care to marry a person who talks as much as does Mr. Depew.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The peacemaker doesn't always get the worst of it. Look at the case of the Hon. John W. Foster, for instance.—Washington Post.

The short sermon is increasing in popularity. In fact, we are rapidly approaching the day of the pulpit paragrapher.— Washington Post.

Twenty cents' worth of chloroform would enforce the death penalty more satisfactorily than $2,000 worth of electric appliances.—Detroit Journal.

It is an interesting fact that when the liquor laws are more rigidly enforced on the Atlantic coast the sea serpent fails to materialize.—Washington Star.

Russell Sage's property is assessed for taxation at 1500,000. Russell must have held some one between himself and the appraiser.—Nashville American.

Spelling reform will never make much progress in Philadelphia. The Quakers wouldn't fancy seeing the name of their city spelled Filadelfia."—Chicago TimesHerald.

The oonquering watermelon has started on its annual tour, and the artists of the comic papers can now begin again with the colored boy and the huge melon.—Boston Herald.

The horse may be run off the track by the electric car and the bicycle, but it will not be so easy to supplant the egg laying hen and the milk giving oow by mechanical contrivances.—Boston Herald.

A Buckeye boy has taken out a patent on a brick shingle which, it is predicted, "will revolutionize the tile business." It is an improvement on carrying a brick in one's tile anyhow.—Cincinnati TimesStar.

Mrs. Loland Stanford going abroad to sell $1,000,000 worth of her jewels, to give the proceeds to tho university which has already received millions from her family, is a spectacle to floor the shouters of degeneracy.—Boston Journal.

The inventor who announces that he has a process for causing the air to stir with refreshing breeze in the suinmor time is probably a humbug of tho same order as the rainmaker, and his invention only a new method of raising the wind.—Boston Herald.

CORNELL.

The statement that tho crew was mercilessly overtrained is a sufficient explanation for tho failure and points out one of the dangers of the crazo for athletics.— Pittsburg Dispatch.

It Is impossible not to blame Coaoh Courtney. Whether he has overworked the crew or not, he has overworked his tonguo. His proverbial lack of "sand," freely expressed in the crew's presence, was shameful and must have been discouraging.— Albany Argus.

It la practically impossible for an American orew, however good it may be, to go to England and win a boat race. Climate and racing conditions are against the Americans and furnish so heavy a handicap that they are unable to overcome it.— Worcester Telegram.

Now that it is all over, however, we are free to

say

that it would have been a scien­

tific calamity if Cornell had won. It would have been a contradiction of all the principles which experience has laid down as sound If the rapid, choppy, exhausting stroke developed in America, and practiced particularly hy Cornell, had beaten the long drawn out sweep of the oarsmen of England,—ft** York Sun. .Coni^U'Ui b^ten, hut not discredited. It made a coHM»geot)s fight with adverse conditions preva$Un& It deserved to win, bat the fateslfjar* perversely against it.

THE SALT WATER BATH/

The hair should be rinsed and dried in the sun before it i*. put up. Rubber solpd bathing shoes protect the feet and save stockings from w$uripg out.

Do not enter the wator too slowly. Submerge the body to the neok as poon as possible.

Twenty minutes should beenpugh fora surf bath, and more than hi|M ^n nour Is too long.

If you are chilled, and your lips grow white, It is best to leave the water and dry the body briskly with a coarse towel.

Brllliantlne is one of the best materials for a bathing dress. It sheds the water, la light and does not cling to the figure.

Old black stockings, the feet of which have been cut off, can be drawn over the arms to protect them from'the sun if the sleeves are too short.

To keep tho hair dry bind a rubber or oil sick cap tightly about ..the head, and over this tie a polka dot bluo or turkey red hAndkerohk^ iti turban fashion.

"For four years I was a sufferer from nervous debility. During that time I took a great many remedies without getting any help until I tried Paine's celery compound. I took six bottles of that remedy and was cured. I cheerfully recommend Paine's celery compound."

So writes Mrs. M. S. Schoonmaker of 80K Jane street, New York City. Too many women needlessly suffer from nervous troubles, not only in the cities, but everywhere.

Their whole world too frequently lies inside the four walls of their homes. Think of the many persons, men as well as women, who spend most of their lives barricaded within the narrow confines of their dwellings. Summer finds them pale and tired out. Their store of nervous vitality has been slowly brought down by vitiated air and sedentary life. Their whole system needs a thorough replenishing. The nerves want nourishment, the tissue3 are not half supplied with material for the repair of their parts, and the great vital organs must have

THAT TLLLP TO BOSTON.

Something Besides low Katos Offered by Fenasylvauia Iiluet. Boston excursionists over the Pennsylvania Lines will be carried in the luxurious ea3e to be expected on "The Standard Railway of America"—the standard in construction, equipment and operation. This merited distinction means that every requirement for comfortable and delightful traveling is provided on these lines. The Parlor, Sleeping and dining cars and coaches are up to date in design and finish. The Pennsylvania is an up-to-date railway system, the foremost in adopting practicable ideas for the convenience and pleasure of patrons.

Stop-over privileges will enable excurcursionists to visit places of summer sojourn aloug the Atlantic Ocean. Long Branch, Cape May, Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Ocean Grove, and resorts on the New Jersey coa9t are on the Pennsylvania Lines, and May be reached at slight expense from Philadelphia and New York by daily excursions thither during the season. Historic scenes in Philadelphia, including- Independence Hall with Old Liberty Bell and numerous interesting relics, the United States Mint, Masonic Temple, Fairmount Park, the site of the Centennial, may be visited within the stop-over limit.

Returning excursionists may make the trip over different routes to be selected at the time tickets to Boston are obtained. By this arrangement the return journey may be mada via the Hudson River, Niagara Palls, and other attractive places. If excursionists wish to reach home in the

The power of refreshing and reviving every part of the languid body is what makes Paine's celery compound the marvelous strengthener and iuvigorator of this century. It is this same capacity to recruit the worn-out nervous system, to rejuvenate the blood that has enabled this remarkable remedy to help so many debilitated persons and to restore them again to firm health.

Rheumatism, neuralgia, pain in the region of the heart, debility- and nervous weakness, showing itself in any of its myriad forms, are dispelled by Paine's celery compound. It feeds enervated tissues all over the body. It gives fresh vigor to the entire nervous tract, the brain, the large nerve centers in the spinal cord aud the nerves themselves to their minutest ramification.

It restores jaded nervous energy. It sends new blood coursing through the veins. It makes people well!

TEKKE HAUTE FAIR RACKS

A Great Mtoetlng pn the, Orei»te«t Track ln the World—More titan 300 Entries.

All lovers'of real sport will be interested in the great meeting of the Terre Haute Fair Races, at the world-famous Terra Haute track' August 5th. 6th^ 7th8th and 9th' at which purses aggregating $30,000 are offered. The programe comprise 21 raaes, in 14 of which there are htiarly 300 entries, 'and there are seven others to close in a few days, which will swell the grand total to about 400 entries. These races embrace all the classes of trotting and pacing, and the best horses of the entire country are entered in them. Alive to the conditions that are prevailing at present the directors have decided upon a step that should go a great way toward making these races the most successful yet given. It is no less a thing than reducing the price of admission to 50 cents, placing it within the reach of all. This is the only really big meeting at which these popular prices will prevail, and when it is considered that the races here will equal in sport and interest those of the biggest high priced meetings of the year, it is seemed that the attendance should be something phenomenal.

All the tiilroads entering Terre Haute have made half fare rates for this meeting, which will make it possible for all lovers of v&cUig to attend. If you want a prrcgamme and list of entries drop a postal card $o W. H. DUNCAN, Secretary.
