HON. "\\rm. D. Bynum having finished delivering his "Sound Money" speeches in this State, has gone back to Washington and is pounding the pie counter vigorously. He desires a Judgeship in the Indian Territory, salary $5,000 per year. The sum he received for his "Sound Money" speeches has been variously estimated at from $o0 to §100, which was paid by the Wall street brokers and bankers of New York. They of course had Tuo selfish motive?, but were laboring in the interests of the dear people and trying to reclaim them from the error 0? their ways. Bynum feels he is entitled to a Judgeship1 and] therefore he has put himself in position at the pie counter, where he has been tha greater part of the time since Charles L. Heurv beat liim for Congress. Cleveland however will no dou»)t* appoint Bynum soma olHce before he.goes out of office. If he does not it wi 11 not be Byuum's fault for lie asks for about everything that is vacant.

HKNIIY cour.-iy, winch was recently given a 'ittle unpleasant notoriety on account of the lavga iiiivuml of money distributed to the poor of the county by the township trustee, has concluded to change the order of things and reduce expenses. Many who have heretofore been helped at home will hereafter be required to go to the county farm. The State Board of Charities has recommended that fewer people be helped at home. It begets a spirit of dependence, and more and more public money ii required caeh year to help families who start in on that line. No deserving poor, especially old people or children dependent on others, should be allo.ved to suffer, but it does grind tax payers to see strong, ablebodied men who have refused work in the spring, summer and fall, just because everything did not suit, walk up and draw help from the township during the winter. These men should be taught to rely more upon their own efforts. A more active interest has been aroused in this matter of township h^lp, and it will be largely if not altogether cut oil from the undeserving. More will be cared for at the county house r.nd at a less expense to the tax payers.

I^HON. CHAHLES L. HENT.Y, of Ander son, is to have competition in the new congressional district for the nomination next year. Ex-Senater O.' X. Craynor, of Muncie. and Rev. I. P. Watts, of Win Chester, have already* announced themselves as candidates. Mr. Henry will probably be renominated, as it is the precedent to do so. Mr. Henry is an able and successful campaigner, and will add strength to the ticket. Charles L. Henry is just the kind of a man who will make an able an valuable congressman. He is a fine lawyer, an industrious and close student and a successful business man who will promptly, ably and carefully look after the interests of his constitu ents. He will be a successful committee worker, and there is where the valuable work in Congress is done. When he does speak in the House he will be well informed on the subject and speak in a concise, logical way, so as to merit and have »the attention of the members. Spread eagle pyrotechnic •ratory cuts no big figure in Congress.

Hancock county helped to elect Mr. Henry and we gare proud of him. He will be an honor to himself, his friends and his constituents, and do valuable work.

Knightstown Sun. Greenfield young] men who visit this place on Sunday for immoral purposes, should remember that they are known, although they are away from their own town and out of the sight of their parents and near friends and we will say right here that the next time a crowd of them make such a display as was made by some of those fellows last Sunday night their names will appear in print, together with the places they are in the habit of frequenting. A word to the wise is sufficient.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be .incurable. For a great many years doctors pronouncedjit a local disease, and prescribed IOCBI remedies, and by constantly^ failing to cure with local treatment pronounced it incurable. Science has proven cattarrh to be a constitutional treatment disease and there fore requires constitutional* treatment. Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful, It acts directly on the blood and mucous surface of the system. They oiler one hundrei dollars for any cas it fails to cure.

For the Flag.

The following letter was trustee of one of our Putnam township: to all the teachers in his districts. The letter has the endorsement of the couuty superintendent and we herewith give it in full:

Realizing that the perpetuity of our country, the stability of our national institutions and the safety of our rovernment depends to a large degree on the principles inculcated in the minds of our youth, I would suggest as one means of generating .and developing these ideal vittii.es would be originate and cultivate with their first ideas a proper devotion and respect for the American 11 ig. It is my ofcjact that this flag shall float over every school house in ',tbis township and I think that it would be advisable 'or every school to purchase its own flig by popular subsoription. rhus each scholar would feel that he had a direct and personal interest- in it. I would further suggest that as a reward of some meritorious consideration some one scholar be appointed custodian of the ting to see that eti (Mich day. weather permitting, the ilJj? is iu if« proper place. This duty should be rot-ited and should la.vt only for a giv-.u period of time. It is my desire that this v.*.11 arouse sufficient interest for the consummation of the plan at the earliest convenient ti me, and that no more urgent suggestions may be ueee?sa.ry.—ureeiicastls Banner-Time-'--.

Both parties reside at (.'anollism and the particulars have been given several times. There were a large number of witnesses and the trial occupied three days. Today acfcei- Prosecutor Chas. Downing and Deputy Prosecutor Will A. Hough had spoken, the defense represented by Marsh and Cook declined to spsak, an:l asked that the court instruct the jury without further argument. This shut out R. A. Black why was also assisting in the prosecution. Messrs Downing and Hough, while making excellent speeches had shortened their remarks so as to give Mr. Black more time, as each was limited to two hours, aud therefore left unsaid considerable which they would gladiy have said had they known they were to make the only speeches. It was Mr. Hough's maiden elfort in the Circuit Court in a criminal case, and Jwe have beard his effort highly commended, the spectators saying it was a- fine effort. The jury is still out in the case.

TRADE.

R. G. Dun & Company's Weekly Report.

COMMERCIAL FAILURES.

Comparison Mario IVilh Previous Years. Highly Important Comparisons of Prices This Week Shoir About September 3 the

Lowest ilange 33ver Known- For Wholesale Prices of All Commodities. NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—R. G. Dun & Company's weekly review of trade says: Commercial failures in the third quarter of 1895 were 2,792, with liabilities of $32,167,179, averaging- $11,521 per firm, against $.10,028 last year, about 15 per cent more. The rate of commercial mortality—2.--3S failures in a quarter for every 1,000 firms in business—is lower than last year, and the proportion of defaulted liabilities ro the solvent- business represented by payments through clearinghouse is but- 2.-19 per $1,000, against -2.77 )ast year. The defaulted liabilities per firm in business averages was !?2(3.!)2, against §^0.30 last year. The defaulted liabilities of the manufacturing class average against- $10,703 in the same quarter last year in trading, $8,577, against 3«»,-i43 last year, and the banking failures not included above have been 31, with average liabilities of $ I l-i.WO, against $110,036 last year. Iu the third quarter, when failures are usually low, the average liabilities in prosperous years falls below «i0,000 the number below two in 1,000 firms, the defaulted liabilities below $2 per $1,00 exchanges, and below $25 per firift in business. Thus the analy sisiudicates si condition approaching. but not yet reaching, one of general prosperity.

Highly important comparisons of prices this week show si bout Sept. 3 the lowest range ever known for wholesale puces of sill commodities, notwithstanding advances since March of 20 per cent in cotton poods, 40 per cent in boots and shoes aud 53 per cent in iron and steel products, while in woolen goods there has been scsircely any advsince, and in all food products taken together a fail of 17 per cent. Comparisons show a fall iu food products of 23.2 per cent in the five years sinc9 October, 1890 in woolen goods 22.5 per cent, in iron products 16.4 per cent, and iu cotton goods 12.5 per cent, while boots and shoes are a little higher, and iu leather and hides nr.icii higher, than live years ago.

The cotton market has mounted above 9 cents and holds in spice of realizing, but as the crop is late and quite largely lield back, does yet l'eel the influence of the receipts natural at this dale. Reports of injury and low estimates of yield have impressed all minds while few remember the slocks brought over, Receipts are growing but for the month have been 275,000 bales less than last year. Wheat is a shade weaker, v.'hile western rcceipcs h&Ve been 6,550,494 bushels, against 4,4b/, 104 last year, while Atlantic exports lisive been only 1,038,179 bushels, against 2,791,489 last year. Worn is but little lower, though beginning to move quite largely.

The Pennsylvania has ordered 40,000 tons of steel rails and other roads 85,000, but the steel makers having bought their pig, Bessemer is lower and also gray forgo, and the demand for finished products is decidedly smaller, so that the average of iron prices turns downward for the first time since February. Coke workers gain 6 per cent more wages and coke is raised 18 to 33 per cent. Wool speculation continues with enormous transactions, 10,960,200 pounds for the week and for the month 35,636,170 pounds, of which 19,165,700 were domestic, against 37,288,400 in 1L.92, of which 26,197,800 were domestic, but the average of 104 quotations is 1 cent lower than a month ago. The manufacturers is doing well in dress goods and many specialties, but has lost a large share of the business iu men's woolens, ar.d wool is 1 per cent higher and goods 2 per cent lower than a year ago.

Failures in three days have been 207 in the United States, against 219 last year, aud 41 in Canada, against 40 last year.

LATEST FROM HAVANA.

Censorship Dispatches Sent Out by the Spanish Government. HAVANA, Oct. 5.—A column of troops, numbering 300 men, commanded by Colonel Seguera, has had a brush with the insurgents at Camp Arroyo Blanco.

Among the latter was Serafin Sanchez, who led the insurgents. Confirmation has been received here of the death of Rafael Arce, who was wounded in an engagement with the troops about one month ago.

All pleaded guilty and were fined $30 and costs. The food deputies are working throughout this part of the state and have csises at Sidney, St. Mary's, Toledo and Wsipakoneta.
