VIM, vigor and victory, is Foraker's motto, and he will be re-alected Governor of Ohio.

THE sugar trust is becoming weaker, and sugars, we are glad to announce, are getting lower.

RAILROADS have built up and benefited every important town in Indiana. Why not help our town and county by securing additional railroad facilities.

PRIVATE Secretary Hal ford is not in good health and there is some talk that he will resign and return to Indianapolis and again engage in the newspaper business.

Gov. ALGER, proposes to give Corporal Tanner a good job in private life. Alger wants to be President and Harrison had better keep his eye on the Micliigander.

GEX. AV.M. MAIIONE, Republican, is in the lead for Governor of Virginia', and the chances are that he will be the next Governor, if the Republicans secure a fair count".

R. post at Fort-

ville was appointed postmaster for that place, to succeed Thomas R. Xoel who was appointed last spring.

I.'diauapolis Gas Company is

amioiuicin future cutiiracts must be 30 per cent, higher than the present ones, and after the fashion of he Trust Company, want to collect Lor three mouths in advance.

Tin-: Louisville Commercial makes a neat point on the free-trade organs in this: '•Lnst year, during the debates on the Mills bill, and the subsequent" campaign, they continually asserted that 11 tarill'duties were taxes paid by the people of this country: that none of the tariff duty fell upon the foreigner who bought his goods to sell in our market, but that all of it was paid by our people who bought the goods. Now they assert, with tiresome iteration, that the South Americans will not trade with us because we levy duties on the goods which they would sell us, and that they will not pay that tax. What difference does it make with the Spanish-Americans how much duty we levy on their goods if our people pay it, and they do not?"

In the same way the Democratic freetraders at their recent so called wheat convention, said that we must take the tariff off of English goods, so that they would admit our grain products. If, as the free-traders say, we pay the tariff here, "the tariff is a tax," being the cry, what do the English care whether we take off the tariff or not? A free-trader does not have to be consistent, however.

IN order that we may fully develope our natural gas resources we need increased railroad facilities. A north and south railroad would mean such an impetus to the growth of Hancock county and Greenfield that they would attract the attention of business all over the country and we would at once reap substantial benefit. There should be spirit, energy and organization displayed if we are to secure these roads. The farmers along the line should not be slow in following the public spirited action of the towns, for they will be enormously benefited. While it will be a big thing for the entire county it will be a bigger thing for Greenfield. It is greatly to our interest to have the new railroads. A little prompt hustling right now on the part of those who desire to see their property increase in value and boom will have great influence on those who are not fully aroused concerning the importance of securing these railroads.

PUBLIC spirit is somthing that a majority of citizens of all towns speak about and commend. No town or county can fail to be prosperous where the citizens of the same are public spirited and progressive. Nothing should be left undone that will advance' the future interests of a community. Future generations rise up and call those "blessed" who were wise enough in their day and generation to be public spirited. Greenfield is now on the boom and all our citizens should be anxious to assist in every enterprise that will benefit the town and county. Let us, if possible, keep in the front rank of the advancing county towns of this State. The only way to do this is to be public spirited and reach out and if possible secure everything in sight. The most important thing for this county uow to do is to vote favorable on the question of securing the new railroads. It would be along step in advance and increase our prosperity as nothing else possibly could. It would help every man in Hancock county. Be public spirited friends and help yourselves and neighbors by voting for the new railroads.

*. ^titnocrat made the state

ment that gas was scarce with the People's Gas Company, as one of the companies patrons had to go to a neighbors house to bake her bread. The fact was, while the gas was turned off and the plumbers were making the necessary connections, Mrs. Charles Downing did go to a neighbors to bake bread, but it was not on account of a scarcity of gas in the companys mains. We have fully investigated this matter and know that there has never at any time been a scarcity of gas for anybody from either company. Greenfield is right in the center of the gas field and any company can get an abundance of gas—natures best fuel. Why the Democrat wishes to make statements that have a tendency to injure our town we don't know.

THE forty-two men in the pension office who secured a rerating and an increase in their pensions during the short administration of Tanner, are all to be removed. Many old soldiers were mad when Tanner was removed, because they considered him their greatest friend, although he was doing them injustice, by making special the claims of men who were right there in his own bureau drawing good fat salaries and having an easy time, while the claim of some poor old crippled soldier who did not have much influence has been laying for mouths, or even longer, untouched for lack of time. Gen. Harrisons idea is that all must be treated alike and no one favored because he stands in, and is occupying a high position. The law is that no pension shall be made special unless the claimant is liable to die soon or is in absolute want. Harrison is the true friend of all the soldiers and will sse that there is a fair business like administration.

KAILROAD Oli 0 KAILKOAO,

That is the great question that is agitating the minds of a large number of people in this community to-day. The benefits to be derived from the north and south railroads are so apparent that it is hardly necessai-y to state them here, yet we will do so. An additional road would furnish competition in freights and we could not only buy our goods cheaper but new markets would be opened up for our grain, and a farmer would receive from two to five cents a bushel more for his corn and wheat. We should b'kf for every farmer to estimate just what that would be to him ich year on his crops. Better railroad facilities would induce manufactories to locate here in Greenfield, and at other points in the county which would build up our towns, make labor higher priced as the factories would demand skilled labor. These towns would then be a splendid home market for the farmers for the products of the garden, small fruits, etc. The building of the road would cost four or five times the subsidy, and that amount of money would be left in the county among our laborers, farmers and merchants. In future years the railroads and factories brought here by them would pay such large sums of money into the treasury in taxes that the subsidies would soon be wiped out and the people be relieved from a good per cent of their tax«s. Reader, consider well these facts and vote for the new railroads.

RAMBLER'S ROUNDS.

Going south this week Lee Benson informed me that he was tired of farm life and would move to town. His farm is for sale and is a good one. His little girls Meda and Nettie have been real sick. They are bright girls.

I learned that our friend Milt Morris had engaged in the sewing machine business. Milt is a good one and can soon convince the ladies of the superior merits of the Grand. He will make it succeed.

I was told that Marion Steele was piping his house for gas. Robert Archey has remodeled his house from top to bottom. He showed me through it and soon convinced me that he w^s beyond an amateur on arrangement. He is doing the painting himself. Mr. Archey is opposed to monopolies and is.in favor of tariff for revenue only. correct.

Eph Duncan echoes the sentiments as expressed by the REPUBLICAN, but he does not take the paper. Mr. Duncan has rn^de some substantial improvements on his tarm by putting up about 400 rods of woven fence. The old worm fence of our fore-father is fast disappearing into the capacious mew of the sugar-furnace each year and being replaced by a more satisfactory and economical one.

Marion Carpenter thinks protection should not be allowed to come higher than the chin, and to obsecure the vision and blind the individual to the real state of affairs, but believes in the same so long as it does not harbor trusts and monopolies.

THE FOUNTAINTOWN

schools are progressing finely under the efficient management of James F. Reed as principal, with' Miss Gates and Miss Snodgrass as assistants. They have 150 pupils enrolled. tt. M. Irdow will furnish the readers of the REPUBLICAN with a good list or items from there each week. He is superintendent of the M. E. sunday-school there. He is a gentleman on general principles. Mr. Inlow has added a meat shop to his business, and it will be conducted on the basis that declares cleanliness next to godliness.

Enoch Campbeil, the P. M., has a warm spot in his heart and a squeeze of the hand for every friend.

J. E. Smith has a nice store there. He is a veteran Sunday-school teacher, as a generation have married off since he

began and still he retains his number of pupils. This is faithfulness that many of our teachers would be profited by imitating. His young son in the store can entertain a customer nicely and at the sametimesell him goods.

The young wheat down here is smiling since the rain, and a few warm days will soon cause it to make up fully the lost time.

C. M. Jackson, east of Palestine had just returned from his western trip and was well satisfied with the same. He formerly ran the "Bee-Hive" store at Greenfield, but prefers farm life.

The farmers are now, many of them, harvesting their hog crop which is an immense one. They have been more fortunate than their brethern north, as there is no cholera among them. $4.00 per hundred is being paid by dealers.

As I drive along meditatively, I am reminded by the chilly breeze that "sweet summer has indeed gone away" and her beautiful crown of verdure that she has worm so majestically has been toyed with by the hand of autumn, then rudely plucked from her brow and scattered o'er the mother earth to hide her grief at the dethroning of her most beautiful daughter.

Some one told me that the Tawah" medicine company were holding forth at Morristown, mi:king the denizens feel happy by bringing a curative among them that will rid them of their aches and pains.

PALESTINE''

is flourishing as usual, and the citizens were ridding the streets and sidewalks of the fallen leaves, determined to keep up their reputation of neatness.

Our patron, O. P. Hobbs, was building him a nice new house, which he intends to be living in ere the winter howls about.

I had the pleasure of meeting the new M. E. minister, Rev. Chafee, at Dr. Ely's. He is a very jocular sociable old gentleman, and will no doubt be the means of accomplishing a great deal of good for our sister town, as he has the qualities that will attract the young and the old qualities so necessary to the splendid elevation of his congregation.

Prof. Ellis, teacher of penmanship, is endeavoring to secure a class in writing here. He showed mo some .specimens that were excellent, and testimonials that show his work has been appreciated where he has been. I hope the Prof, will succeed. If it were convenient he could count me in as a pupil, if for no other purpose than to evade the smothered curses of the typo as he wrestles with my copy.

Dr. Ely, Jr., is opposed to newspapers, generally, especially those patent cough syrup ad's that come to him each week in the guise of news. He is right in this as he is on other subjects, and the doctor can portion adose of quinine accurately as any of them. He is full of business and fun.

Harry Garver was so unfortunate as to have a valuable setter dog shot some nights ago. He feels the loss of him badly as the "Joe Bird" is now ripe and Harry is one of the best sportsmen in that vicinity.

Most of the business men theres are too busy liow to read any mention I might wish to make of them, so I will pass them for the present.

Going south-west of here I pass the home of our patron, Henry Merlen. I did not get to meet him but if he possess the kindness, dan pleasing traits of his wife he is O. K.

O. H. Tutle sheltered me over night and did it about right. He has a family of children, most of them members of the church. It does me good to sojourn among christian people, of which I find so many all over the county and I find wherever they obtain, the morals of th& community aue above the average, and that coarseness and vulgarity so prevalent among ignorant ungodly people, is conspicious for its absence. And godliness, intelligence, love and refinement reign supreme, as they go forth do ing the work of the divine Master. I would that this state affairs could exist in every home, and th.,' we all could taste more fully the sweets Tie christtian religion.

I enjoyed a few pleasant rem-irks of Benjaming Fowler. He is pleasing and a very kindly disposed old gentleman. Death had invaded his home a few d:.ys before and robbed them of their daughter. She was a sweet girl just blooming into womanhood, but such is the history of the human race.

As I came home I noticed that farmers are cribbing their corn and that the gas mains are gradually creeping toward Shelbyville.

Mrs. Cleary is as full of her wit and Republicanism as ever, and cooks just as good dinners as she used to when I lived near them. Mr. Cleary is a Democrat but he don't say much about it at home.
