FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1889.

NEW parties are coming here every day seeking locations. Surely Greenfield is on the boom.

GEN. RUSSEL A. ALGER, of Michigan, was selected as the Commander-in-Cliief for the G. A. R. for the ensuing year.

GEN. WM. MAHONE has been nominated Dy the Republicans for Governor of irginia. The "Little Wizard" will get there.

LONDON'S TRADE is paralyzed as there are 150.000 of her dock laborers on a strike. Strikes seem to strike a free trade country

occasionally.

THE Democratic Treasurer, Michael M. Posz, of Shelby county, is an embezzler to the amount of $13,000. He used the money in paying private debts.

A LEVEL-HEADED writer bas just given publicity to the following: "One-third of the iools in the country think they can beat the lawyers in expounding the law. One-half think they can beat the doctors in healing the sick. Two-thirds of them think they can beat the minister in preaching the gospel, and all of them think they can beat the editor running the paper.

THE REPUBLICAN office feels proud over the success of two of its employes during the past year. One of its men, Raymond Geary, secured a position in the government printing office at Washington, D. C. Another, Charles Tague, has accepted the foremanship of the Sun newspaper and job office at Morristown. It is undoubtedly quite a card to work in the REBUBLICAN office.

THE Indianapolis News in speaking of the Farmers Alliance and the manufactures says, 'the laws of the land are on the side of the latter, in that they are favored and protected by tariff legislation, while the farmer is compelled to sell in evencompetitioon with the whole world." Why is it that the News along with other Eree trade organs prefer to tell that which is not true in stating this case. First the Earmers wheat, corn, potatoes, rye, barley, wool etc. is protected and he does not sell in competition with the world except when ie goes abroad and the manufacturer has the same competition with the world jyhen he goes abroad. The News claim? it is a disadvantage to have to come into Competition with the world, still it objects ^o protection. Manufacturing builds up a Community and furnishes a home market. Sew England consumes 99 percent of all She grain raised there.

The Only Way to Become a Capitalist. Somebody must save money: and the teople who save it will be the capitalists, Ind they will control the organization of hdustry and receive the larger share of toe profits. If the workingmen will save 'iheir money they may be not only shavers »f profits, but owners ot stock and receivers of dividends. And the workmen can

jare their money, if they will. It is the jnly way in which they can permanently Jnd surely improve their condition. Leg^lative reforms, improved industrial hethods, may make the way easier for jhem, but there is no road to comfort and ^dependence, after all, but the plain, old lath of steady work and sober saving. If Ihe working people of this country would ave, for the next five years, the money tat they spend on beer and tobacco and ase-ball, they could control a pretty large bare of the capital employed in the indusries by which they get their living and ley could turn the dividends of this capal from the pockets of the money-lenders ito their own. There is no other way of kftrfeing the congestion of wealth and of fomoting its diffusion, so expeditious, so srtain, and so beneficent as this I wish 16 working people would try it! —Wash-

HOW OUR GIRLS KISS.

The Knightstown girl bows her stately head And she fixes her stylish lips In a firm, hard way, and lets them go

In spasmodic little snips.

The Greenfield girl removeth her specs, And freezes her face with a smile, Then sticks out her lips like an open book,

And cheweih her wax meanwhile.

The Rushville girl says never a word, And you think she is rather tame With her practical views of the matter in hatd

But she gets there just the same.

The Carthage girl, the pride of the State, In her clinging and soulful way, Absorbs it all with a yearning yearn

As big as a ton of hay.

The Arlington girl gets a grip on herself As she carefully takes oft' her hat, And she grabs up the prize in a frightened way,

Like a terrier shaknig a rat.

The Morristown girl, so gentle and sweet, Lets her lips meet the coming kiss With rapturous warmth, and the youthful souls,

Float away on the sea of bliss.

And the New Castle girl, a creature divine, Whether wife, widow or mis-s, Looks into your eyes with her starlit orbs,

And puts her whole soul in a kiss.

The Charlottesville girl will at first refuse Just to have you insist and plead, But when she finally docs consent,

Her kiss, you'll confess, takes the lead.

The Dunreithgirl closes her dreamy eyes When asked to osculate, And lets the vandal steal the kiss—

Which she really likes first-rate.

The Spiceland girl neither sighs nor pines, Nor acts in a manner rude, But she goes about kissing in a business way

That catches the average dude.

The Cleveland girl catches the man's mustache With a grip as tight as glue, And opening a little her ruby lips

Pulls the kiss on like a shoe.

The Logansport girl on her tiptoe stands, Her lips so rosy, tempting and red You take her cheeks in both your hands,

Then let 'ergo, Murphy—Gallagher's dead. —[Arthur Stuart in tiie Carthage Record.

RAMBLER'S ROUNDS.

As I had some business to transact for tlia paper at Rushville, I went via Fountaintown. As I went gladly on my way the birds sang sweetly, and all things seemed to echo that Hancock Co. had free roads. The men I met would smile a bland smile, and say,"they're free." Mrs. Brownatthe first gate was in a royal good humor, and sepmed glad that she and her daughters had gotten rid of the dull monotonous routine of toll taking. They could now go unhampered and enjoy themselves like other people. The farmers were busily engaged preparing the ground for a future crop of wheat. This was very difficult, as they needed rain badly. Lee Brown says he thinks he will come back to town, as hopping clods hurts his feelings, stiffens his joints, and makes him feel prematurely old. Come back, Lee, you make too good a city father to be spared long. Ells Grigsby says although a gate keeper, he voted 'em free, for his fuel was getting low. And when the order came, it was but a few minutes till that pole was doing duty cooking his grub. At Fountaintown all was quiet. Squire Cole was busy but talkative and gave me many reminiscences that were very interesting. I will call on the Squire when I have more time, and have him tell some things for our readers. Mr. Pim, of the mill, is quite a business man he came there from Kansas, resurrected the old mill,made some substantial improvements on the same, and subscribed for the Greenfield REPUBLICAN, and in addition to keeping posted on the news of our county, he is prepared to grind you meal and feed at all times. He also keeps on hand for sale or exchange, two of Hancock county's most popular brands of flour, namely Hogle and Helm's Gold Dust, and J. C. Alexander's at Greenfield. At Rushville the people were greatly excited over the success of their gas well. At Carthage, some even went so far in their evcitement as to declare that it is better than, any three wells in Hancock or Henry counties. The editor of the Graphic is among this number. This shows what excitement will do. We are glad, however, that they have at last been successful in their ernest efforts to procure gas. Tliey have a good well,and I hope that they may all be enjoying the use of the same in the near future. And Rushville, already busy and active, will get a move on her that will be immense, I predict. I made my business brief there, as I was anxious to get back and attend our fair already in progress. The people I met on my return said it was the best fair that had ever been held in the county. And my own observations next day verified the statement to me. Each and every department being tull to overflowing with the many fine products of the county. The Stock Department was fully represented in every particular. Our old friend, R. H. Phillips, of Rush county, was on hand with his famous herd of short horns, and carried away eight ribbons. John H. Brown, of the same place, with his Holsteins, secured a liberal share of red tape. J. W. Comstock was well pleased with his success, as he took at least $75 in premiums on his llolsteins. He sold his premium bull calf to Lee Barnard before he left the grounds for $50. Cochran & Sous' herd of Jerseys were beauties, and they were amply repaid for coming from Spiceland, where they live. Harvey Garrettson, of Pendleton, secured four red and four blue ribbons. His cattle were in splendid condition. W. W. Snyder, of Shelby, was there with his white hogs, and was smiling over his success. Prigg & Bell's Berksliires were fine, and they took some ribbons. R. Wayman, of Acton, showed his Poland Chinas. His hogs are pure bred. Our old friend Wright Jeffries' pigs are splendid specimens of the noted Poland st oik. Mr. Jeffries says his hogs were

not fat enough, and he showed for stock. He knew from former observations that Mintz Brothers would get there with their herd of Poland Chinas and they did. From eight entries they took seven ribbons. If any desire to improve their stock, they should call on those gentlemen. You can buy of them. F. M. McMillan, of Rush, took some premiums on this stock. Our friend, J. Leonard, took second on male pig it is a dandy. B. F. Cross, of Mohawk, was right alongside the rest of the boys, and was well pleased with the result. J. J. Baker, of Shelby, got there with his Berks. And then I got bewildered before I reached the horses, but the reader will see the description in full in another column. But those that witnessed the parade know that there were as fine horses as will be shown in the State this year. Greenfield's business men all did themselves proud. Joseph Baldwin's display of hardware was a dandy- -and, by the way, Joe walked away with lots of blue and red string. So, also, did James Thomas, taking first on the most important pieces of farm machinery, J. M. Hinchman and W. S. Gant always show up at the fair, and each made some important sales of their handsome vehicles. Whenever J. W. Carter makes a display of pumps he takes the ribbons. He handles the famous Temple wood pump, which took first premium. He also took first premium on iron pumps. While it is gratifying to him to take premiums, nothing pleases him better than to be of service to his fellow-man. Consequently he rigged up one of his Globe wood pumps and watered the people by the hundreds. Mr. Wray's one- and twohorse wagons were on hand, and I saw his ribbons fluttering gaily. Barr & Morford are never behind in anything, and their wagons speak for themselves. As I travel over the county I see more of their wagons than of any other Greenfield wagon. George Rees' display of pumps was fine. George is one of our most prominent pump men, and there is a demand for his work all over the county. J. M. Havens always makes a display, and a good one. He had the north side of the west end of Agricultural Hall filled to the roof with harness, robes, blankets and trappings of all kinds for the horse. Mart has been here but a short time, yet by fair dealing and by handling good stock he has built up a splendid trade. The farm products, corn, wheat, big pumpkins and "sitch," were there in quantities from each township, and I think the plan of having a. card naming each township in this line of exhibit is a good one. The display of school work was as fine as I have seen in any county, and the many nice books given as premiums will have a tendency to stimulate the pupils to greater effort. The Association furnished meals to the Committee on School Work.

The women of the Christian Church deserve great praise for their efforts in their dining-hall venture. They were successful financially and otherwise. A few of the men, urged on by them, also did good work. The many people they fed during the Fair speak in highest praise of the palatable food and the carefi .1 attention and scrupulous neatness of the waitresses. Our success, both in the Church and out of it, is due, to a great extent, to the efforts of the women, all honor to them! I knew before the Fiir that the women's part of tli a show would be complete, for wherever I went over the county I heard of Mrs. Steele or Mrs. Marsh having been there stirring the women into activity, inviting them to bring their bread, pies, preserves, canned goods, jellies, quilts, spreads, shams, and a thousand and one things unknown to man. And all know how well they succeeded by the way Floral Hall was crowded. Whenever a person gets the hustle on him that those ladies have he'll succeed every time. It would be an impossibility for me to describe all the mysteries their work contained. Suffice it to say that the result was better than was expected. The fakirs who usually grace such occasions were there in full force, bawling themselves hoarse proclaiming the quality of their stuff. Scattered here and there were the men with the wheel or dial or little horses, asking you to put your surplus on Maud S., or some other noted animal, as the little wheel goes around. A few simple fellows put up their hard earned cash and came out at the little end of the horn, as usual. Much credit is due Mr. Chandler for his endeavors to warn the people to beware of these fellows. He no doubt saved many a dime for the boys. The fellows vamoosed before the last day of the Fair.

A physician in writing about drinking water says: "If in any house there should occur a single case of typhoid fever or diptheria, test the drinking water or have it done at once. A few cents will buy an ounce of saturated solution of permanganate of potash at a chemist's. If when a drop of the solution is added to a tumbler of water its color changes to brown it is unfit to drink if it remains clear or slightly rose colored after an hour it is, broadly speaking, safe."—Ex.
