Hon. Charles L. Henry is having a contest for nomination in his district. The Delevvare county primary, however, which occurs Saturday, will settle this matter. Senator Craynor, of Mnncie, w:io was a candidate, will probably withdraw, which will leave the contest between Mr. Henry and Hon. I. P. Watts, of Winchester, with Henry a strong favorite.
Chaplain Lozier was greeted by a good zed audience at the Opera House last night. His lecture on "Your Mother's Apr»n Strings," was euiirely poetical. As the Chaplain put it, it was home-made poerry too. The lecture was enjoyed by all who heard ic but it hardly fullfiiled expectations, as Mr. Lozier was qui .e hoarse. The ladies of the M. E. church deserve praise for getting out such a good paying house on such a bad evening.

The Young Ladies Club is starting in on a course of American history and literature. Friday night at the home of Mrs. George S. Wilson, the club will discuss, The Thirteen American Colonies. After the great success the United States has had, the number "13" should be considered a lucky number.
The Teachers' Reading Circle meets Wednesday night in Trustee, J. K. Henby's office. The subject for the evening was a chapter from Prof. McMurray's book on, "General Methods" and au Act from Shakespeare's Tempest, the latter was in charge of Prof. G. S.Wilson.
We think it would be mutually profitable and enjoyable for each community in Hancock County to have a literary club of somo kind.
The Womans Club has invited Mrs. L. H. Gibson, of Indianapolis, to lecture before their club and a number of invited guests next Saturday night. Her subject is "French Chateaux" and will be illus trated by many stereoptican views. The lecture will be at the home of Mr. R. A. Black.
A DEAD BABY
The Mohawk Murder Story, However Wai A Faka, The report circulated yesterday that a baby had been murdered at Mohawk was investigated today by a REPUBLICAN reporter and found to be a mistake. The facts are that a baby was born to Alice Murphy, an unmarried daughter,of Jame? Murphy, the head sawyer at the Mohawk saw mill »n the February fourth. On the fifth of February the girl was dangerously ill and a doctor was called in and the case "represented as the grip, which the doctor soon saw was f«lse and proceeded te search the house and found the baby wrapped up in a skirt and lying in a closet.
The child was buried the next day. Yesterday the grand jury got hold of the case and notified the coroner, Dr. Justice, who, with Dr. Bruner and Policeman Johnson, went to Mohawk, dug up the child and held a post mortem examination. They pronounced the child dead when it was born.
BOTTLE FACTORY WAGES. I
H. W, Streeter Presents His Side,—, pt the Question, EDITOR REPUBLICAN:—There seems to be a report scattered broadcast that jam not paying living wage^ since I have beguu operating the Holltveg & Reese glass factory. The facts in the case haviug been suppressed, I feel that a statement is due from me. I have been at the head of a factory employing union glass blowers for the past five years, aurl men working three in a shop aver«ged between five aud six dollars a day.
In the short time I was running here, I lound that my blowers at 50 per cent of list, would rrake aimost as much as union men, as I worked t.vo ieti in a shop with gathering boy—one the first day made fp2.SS, ai.d ore we closed down, this m.in made $5.88 ii one day, and HSsured me he could make six dollars a day. The Blowers' Association meets every summer, and names a scile of wages, which the manufacturer employing union labor, uiu«t p*3r, or close down their factories, no matter what the financial condition of the country Hiay be, or how hard it may be on the laboring classes.
I uion blowers are getting within 10 per ceut as much money for their work as they did eight years ago, and money wus only half as valuable as it is now. Eigiu .\ears ago four dollars a dny was considered wigas for a gliss blower to make. Now, with the improvement* in the factories, (of whic'j the blower gets the benefit,) they ara getting higher wages, while ali farai and factory piodu ts are 50 per ceut lower. I believe a I laborer to be wo thy of his hi.-* but I wish to see the laborers wa^es more equalized.
Blowers now work nine hours a day, and make from five six dollars a da37. Day laborers can be hire from one dollar to one dollar and a quarter a day, work ten hours, and do hardt work than the blower, a^d my if lea of justice, is to give these laborers a chance to better themselves I have no objection to uu.on labor, in fact I prefer that my labor should be organized, as I would rather arbitrate any difference with a committee than the laborers individually, but I do most seriously, object to any man from a foreign city dictating in any way or naming conditions by wnich I must be governed.
I hope to increase this factory and by running independently I can teach the boys and young men of the city the trade of glass blowing and they can be employed instead of importing foreign labor, which would be more satisfactory to the city and to me, and the youths of this place can become steady workmen, and the citizens will know with whom they are dealing. The work of blowing fruit jars is much easier than any other kind of the glass business, doing away with plate and stone work, furnishing bottles at the ring or glory hole, making turn molds and other gbetter finished bottles, consequently a long apprenticeship is not nectssaryto make a good fruit jar blower. A good machinist who spends from four to six years of his life as au apprentice makes from $2 to $2 50 a day. My men, with a shorter apprenticeship, makes from $4 to $6 a day, which 1 trust is living wages.
