AN old line Democrat says it takes a Democratic kicker to get office.

JAMES BRAGG of the City Council is the most "resolute" member of that body. THE flambeaux burners will soon have to go. It will be a fine of $30 to burn one.

THE Pope's committee at Rome has discovered a deficit of £2,000,000 in the Pe ter's pence fund.

THE time of the per cent government bonds have been extended a short time at 2 per cent.

Snow the REPUBLICAN to your neigh bor and ask him to subscribe for Hancock county's best paper.

THE South is not in the Peoples Party, Democracy is good enough. So say the Southern Democratic papers.

A SEVERE storm swept over this State and Ohio yesterday and much damage was done. Some people being killed.

THE REPUBLICAN now has a circulation of more than 2,000 and is read by more people and talked of by a greater number than any other paper in the county.

COMPARE the REPUBLICAN with the other Hancock county papers and see how much more fresh, bright and newsy reading it contains than any of the others.

DR. BRIGGS who has created thehubbub in the Presbyterian church seems to have the indorsement of about all the leading newspapers of the country as to his ideas.

As soon as the Governor's proclamation is issued, the laws of the last Legislature will be in force except where otherwise stated. Only eight counties to hear from as 82 have already received the laws.

THE election of City School Trustee and of City Attorney last evening by the Council by resolution is pronounced illegal as the law says they must be elected by ballot.

The subscription list of the REPUBLICAN is being changed to a new and larger book. Cannot all delinquents drop in and pay up at once and get a good record on the new book.

BLAINE'S feet are said to have been some what swollen during bis recent illness. His head is all right however. A man by the name of Cleveland has been troubled with the disease of the head.

So MANY things are being saddled onto the Peoples party that it will be more of a local than a National party. In Ohio, they have tacked on prohibition, in some other State they will want woman suffrage, etc.

DII. HEBER NEWTON says that creeds are used as clubs to stun into silence those accused of heresy. Dr. Newton has not been badly stunned, nor has Dr. Bdggs or Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst been dangerously damaged.

A QUESTION has been raised as to the legality of marriages celebrated by retired clergymen. The law reads that any minister of the Gospel "while a regular minister of a society or congregation" can perform the marriage ceremony. This is a late question.

PROTECTION is not merely an American idea as the free traders would have us believe, but it is a. doctrine, a theory, a policy, which has its foundation in reason and logic and which has commended itself to nearly every nation in Europe except Great Britain.

Through an oversight last week, the REPUBLICAN failed to mention the G. A. R. memorial services at the Christian church on the previous Sunday. The members of the Grand Army, the Womans' Relief Corps, and a large number of citizens were in attendance. The church was beautifully and appropriately decorated with flags and flowers, and presented a handsome appearance. The choir, under the directions of W. F. Rickoff, rendered some choice music, and the sermon of Rev. E. S. Conner has been universally commended and praised as one of the best sermons ever delivered on a memorial occasion in this city. It was patriotic, full of good ideas and eloquent.

THE Indiunapolis News even condemns the Democratic report and re-dislricting of Indianapolis by the Council, it says: "It was not a lawful report. The proceeding was highhanded, and is another illustration, like that of the Secretary of State altering an act of the Legislature, of. the tendency to ignore law and substitute for it the will of the individual or the dictates of party in whatever convenient shape, without warrant. The Democrats have needlessly handicapped themselves by an act which will tend to arouse that distrust which has ever been the stumbling block in the way of the Democratic party." \.t

TWAS ever thus? The Republicans'can generally depend upon the Democrats blundering but the fight must be made very hot. Let all the Republicans be alert and see that Indiana goes Republican notwithstanding the gerrymanders.

THE REPUBLICAN WILL PUBLISH SHORT BIOGRAPHICAL SHKTCHES FROM TIME TO TIME

Of the Old Pioneers now Living in tlie County, Giving in Detail Many Interesting Reminiscenses of the

Early Day,

Relating the Hardships, Trials and Difliciil' ties Through "Which They Passed, Following Their Career up to the Present Time.

These Sketches Will be Carefully and Accurately Written up, and Will Prove to be Interesting Reading for all.

Sketch 4.—BIrs. Cliarlotta Langenburger, Sugarcreek Township. Four score of years ago Charlotta Hespa was a light-hearted little girl of seven years, playing about the old homestead in Stattliagen Shamburg Lippa, Germany, having been born there in 1804. When she was 24 years old her heart and hand was given into the keeping of August Langenberger. Four children were born to them in that country. In 1836 her husband conceived the idea of emigrating to "Free America." With others he came and purchased land of Congress, paying $1.25 per acre. The same being the residence of her son August Langenberger In the heart of Sugarcreek township, being in the most fertile and beautiful part of Hancock county, made so by arduous labor and toil. After clearing the timber away having worked three years here alone. He returned to Germany to bring his family to the "New Home" he had prepared for them in the primeval forests of the far West. Arriving in Baltimore they purchased a one-horse wagon, in which they made the journey through to Hancock, where hand in hand for many years they toiled together enduring the trials and privations incident to pioneer life, when her husband was called to that bourne, on the other shore. After coming to this country her son August was born, making the fifth child, 3 sons and two daughters. The two oldest sons are dead, and she makes her home with her son August who is one of Sugarcreek's honored citizens, and an industrious, progressive farmer, rearing a large family of bright, intelligent sons and daughters, all of whom can speak German fluently. The old lady still prefers to cling to the old house in which her children were reared, although her son has built him a larger and more modern residence within a few feet of the old house. She is kindly cared for by her children and grandchildren about her. The daughter Emily married a gentleman named Stag, they are prospering nicely and living in Putnam county, this State. Matilda the other daughter, married a Mr. Youngerman and is living in Marion county west of Indianapolis. Aside from being a little forgetful, the old lady retains her mental faculties perfectly. She is feeble in body of course being burdened with the weight of labor and years. The snow of 87 winters having frosted her locks. "No snow falls lighter llran ths snow of a£!6,"f'et none is heavier," for it never melts." She now has 23 grandchildren living. She has been a consistent christian all her life and when she is called hence, many little mementoes will be retained by the living of good old Grandma Langenberger.

SKETCH NUMBER FIVE—SOPHIA EICKMAN OF SUGARCREEK TOWNRHIP.

Mrs. Eickman's maiden name was Sophia Yierman, when she played among her native hills of Germany. She was born in Shomburg, Lippa, in January, 1804. When she was twenty years old, she was married to Anton Eickman. Her husband thinking that they could better their condition in a newer country, and she, like a good wife, thinking that at, home or abroad a wife should follow her husband, and if he suffers distress, she should suffer should be joyful if he is joyful that danger confronted by one should be met by the other, and that which happens to him should be her lot also, accompanied her husband, with four children, to America in 1837 to take up pioneer life, locating in Sugarcreek township three miles west of New Palestine, where she now lives with her son, Henry. In all they have had eight children born to them, two of whom are dead. The six living are all happily married and residents of Sugarcreek. What a joy it must be to the old iady to have her children all near her in her declining years, prosperous and happy. One son, Anton Eickman, is living south-west of New Palestine and has six children. Charles Eickman lives near his mother and has seven children. As has already been said, she lives with her son Henry, who has a fine family of seven children. These three sons are all prosperous and honorabie citizens. Of the daughters, one is married to C. i\ Kreft, and has five children. One married Fredrick Rupkey, and their children can also say: "We are Seven,'' and your deponent is pleased to count some of them as his friends. The third daughter married our old and esteemed friend, E. H. Faut. Mr. Faut is at present enjoying a trip to the Fatherland on business connected with the Mary Briar estate, as executor. It is a large property. The people of Hancock county need no introduction to Mr. Faut, as he has been before them as assesor, trustee, county treasurer, and was favorably mentioned for State treasurer, which shows that the people have abundant confidence in his integrity and business capacity. Our old fellow citizen, Henry Weber accompanied Mr. Faut to Germany. But to return, Mr. and Mrs. Faut have eight children, making in all forty grandchildren for the subject of this sketch. Of the great grandchildren, Lou Weaver, of near Greenfield, has three, Louis Lantz has two, Geo. Weber has six, Chris Weber has one. The parents are dead but the child lives with its grandma, Mrs. Rupkey. Samuel Mitchell married Sophia Faut, and has one child. They live at Cincinnati. Ben Ortell has three, Henry Huffman, Indianapolis, has one, Henry Eickman jr., one, Gus Smith, of Arlington three, Henry Busharp,of Shelby county seven, Andrew Rupkey, New Palestine, one, Chas. Rupkey two, Andrew Kreft three, making thirty-eight great grandchildren. She has been a widow since 1865, her husband having died in September of that year leaving her in comfortable circumstances, surrounded by/ her children and childrens' children. What a happy time it would be for this old mother in Israel if she could have an thi ee generations, comprising near 100 people, gathered about her on one happy oct ftslon, a reunion with her fitting in the nidst.

THE GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1891.

The old lady is partially deaf, but aside from this she is in good health, and bids fair to see another of her generations rise up. What a record of faithfulness, love and endurance will be left by the old pioneer, fathers and mothers, as monuments to point the road of triumph to after generations.

In a conversation with Mr. J. B. Dill recently, I asked him how it came his premises seemed to have a finished appearance in the busy season, all the minor details had received attention, his fences in good repair and the environments of his residence nicely arranged and neatly kept barn-yard graveled, young shade trees set out, fruit trees trimmed, cattle and horses in good shape, and in fact his farm looking a model of neatness. He answered that he put in all his time systematically at his business just the same as any business man who was successful. I observed another instance in which the man was dissatisfied and suffering from "Hard times.'' He came to town and spent 3 days last week when he had no special business, this fact is sufficient evidence that his place of business is neglected. Contrast the home of some farmers who are careless and indolent, with some of our progressive, intelligent farmer friends if you please. As far as possible every man should make his surroundings pleasant. This partly for his own hanpiness and for that of his family, and partly because these surroundings will enable him to do better work than otherwise. I do not pose as a critic or adviser of any one, but just meekly offer a few suggestions which any one is welcome to do for our business and if they have any fresh original pointers, we want them. Men often lose sight of the fact that they ought to be happy as well as useful in this world, God made the earth beautiful in order that man might enjoy his brief stay upon it, and he has given man the power to still further beautify that portion of the world on which he finds his home. It is true that nothing external can supply the lack of affection among the members of a household, and that no degree of beauty in a landscape can make people happy. But if other things are right, pleasant surroundings prove a never failing source of joy, while in those cases where the home Life is unsatisfactory, they are still more imperatively required. The condition of the surroundings has a powerful influence on the farmer's wife and family. This influence will be observed at various points, character, reputation and appearance will be modified thereby. Unless he has fallen into bad habits, it is safe to say that a young man or woman who is slouchy about their dress and careless vf their appearance and language, have grown up under unfavorable conditions They have not seen things kept neat and beautiful at home, and those wh- have had charge of their home life are to be blamed for whatever damage their reputation may sustain thereby. The extent of injury thus inflicted is great, and a parent has no moral right to send a child from his home with the stamp of such surroundings, not only upon his mental and moral nature. If he cares nothing for flowers or any of the beautiful things himself, the farmer has no right to destroy the sense of beauty which his wife or child possesses as a direct gift from their Maker. An elegant mansion, costly paintings, etc., are not needed, but a neat yard, house in good repair, a tasty garden plenty of trees and flowers, are things not merely of taste but also of utility. They involve but little expense but they have a powerful educating and refining effect. It is therefore every man's duty whether he owns his house or not to make his surroundings as pleasant as the means at his command will allow. I have noticed many plain yards neatly kept that looked better than another elaborately laid out, then neglected. Have gravel or wooden walks, and gravel in the cowyard to keep the women cut of the mud, white wash or paint the front fence, put a few rose bushes and flowers in the yard, and nail up the loose boards to keep the stock out of it. With some of the time spent in town when too wet or dry to plow, racks for climbing vines and flowering plants are easily made, and encourage the eye to the beautiful in yourself as well as your family. Many other things trifles in themselves, but adding greatly to the general effect, can be obtained. These things cost but little but they add much to the value of the farm and your reputation. The interior of ones abode I think should also be neat and pleasant. Boys and girls dislike to spend all their hours in the kitchen, and the wife and mother must find such a living room unpleasant. Yet many farmers wives not only have to work, but also rest when they are fortunate enough to obtain an opportunity to leave their work, in a kitchen covered with smoke. Have plenty of books and papers,(the Greenfield REPUBLICAN among them), some expressly for the children and something to amuse and instruct all, It is better to give the children a taste for quiet home pleasures than to allow them to run in the streets or to the neighbors for pleasures they cannot find at home. And a father and a mother ought to care as much for their children as they do for any one in the world, but I notice that some parents refuse their children the use of the "Best room" which is freely opened for company even though that company may be distant or some "Not very highly prized relatiyes." This is a wrong to the children, they are entitled to the first place in the affections and to the kindest treatment, and as a part of his reward the parent shares the pleasure secured by its performance. God ordained that the home of every one should be the training school of children, and they will soon go out into the world bearing the unmistakeable impress of home surroundings. They go into life on their own responsibility and become accountable for their own actions, but there is a bias for good or evil which was given them at home and which will go forward determining their destiny. If these few remarks are received with the spirit in which they are aimed, I will venture further after a little, regarding labor, recreation, rest etc., needed I think in all our homes, as well as those of the farmer. If it pleases the court. ,. RAMBLED.

HONORING THE HEROES

THAT LIE IN THE SILENT CITY OF THE DEAD.

Flowers and Flags on the Graves.

Again have the actions of heroism and courage of the Boys who wore the Blue vividly been recalled to mind. All over this beautiful broad land of ours from the whispering pines of Maine to the flowering prairies of the Lone Star State, honors were paid to the Grand Army of Invisibles who have passed on before, and not only to those who have gone before but to the gallant veterans who are still with us. Year by year the invisible army grows larger and the "Old comrades" fewer, but their children and grandchildren are a host and becoming mightier as the years roll by. Last Saturday was a beautiful day and royal honors were paid. The banks were all closed and business as far as possible suspended. The business rooms of the city and many private residences were handsomely decorated with the National ila^ and otherwise. The citizens of the city and a large number from the out townships all paid loving tributes to the Nation's preservers. At one o'clock the members of the Grand Army, Womans Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans, Greenfield Light Infantry and citizens gathered at the Conrt House. The court room was jammed but held only a small part of thocs assembled. The meeting was called to order and presided over by Hon.

R. A. Black. The prayer of in­

vocation was delivered by Comrade D.W. Evans pastor of the M. P. church, Rev. M. L. Wells of Indianapolis then delivered an eloquent address that pleased all. Mrs. J. E. Hart read a good paper which is published in another column. At the close of the ritualistic services at the Court House the column was formed as follows: Cornet Band, Speakers in carriages, Greenfield Light Infantry, G.A.R. Colors, Old Soldiers, Sons of Veterans, Womans Relief Corps, Citizens on foot and in carriages, and marched to the New Cemetery where the ritualistic services were gone through with and the salute fired by the Greenfield Light Infantry. The same services were gone through with at the old cemetery when the procession reformed, marched to the G. A. R. Hall and disbanded. The music was furnished by a number of our best singers and the Greenfield Cornet Band rendered a number of appropriate pieces in a fine manner on the march to and from the cemeteries. The services of tbe day rekindled the fires of patriotism not only in the hearts of the old soldiers but also in the hearts of all patriotic citizens. Lot the actions of all these men both living and dead be ever cherished and kept green in our memories.

Addrfss to G. A. 11. on Memorial Day by Sirs. J. K. Hart.

Commander and Comrades of the Grand Army of tlie Republic: 1 don't understand why I should be chosen by your committee on the program for this Decoration Day unless they desired to present to you a war relic. Any way I hope the novelty will be some compensation for lack of ability and interesting matter. So vivid are the recollections of 30 years ago, the days that "tried mens souls and womens hearts" that we veterans must be tolerated upon each opportunity given us to talk upon the theme of which we never tire. Soon other lips will have to take up the stories and many will be forgotten and remain untold, for each year our ranks are thinning out by tliousands. After awhile history alone will record the facts, events and results of the late war. Every brave heart will here surrended to the last conqueror. Through the long spring and summer days of '61 the war cloud all the time gathering blacker and heavier, growing more real and ten ible,convincing thoughtful minds that it would require all the strength of the wisest, the best and the bravest, with the approval of the great Commander to restrain and preserve the Union, it was at this time that cur loved teacher gathered about him those he had been years training for peaceful and useful pursuits in life and led them to the sacrifice, young men who were just enteriug upon lifes chosen duties, or were mapping out lifes work, still sheltered, mayhap, by the old home nest, education and profession incomplete, pure spotless lives with a thousand ties, a father's hope, and mother's pride and stay in old age, ease, peace, expectation, kindred, friends and sweethearts thrown in a balance against that inborn principle love of country, and surrendering their young lives, their fondest hopes, highest aspirations for the toils of war and the perils of battle. Few returned, for what could be the result of three years service, but a wrecking of all, even where life was spared, health, intellect, and oftimes morals were impaired, in fact the whole life current changed and turned into a new channel. That was the sacrifice they made. The mothers, wives, sisters and sweethearts, theirs were the heartaches, the lonely days and nights of watching from afar, the agonizing suspense, the dread reality that comes of wounds and sickness and dying where their tender hands could not reach them. God alone supported them through those days and years. This is why we so cherish memorial day aside from the patriotism common to all. These mouuds contain the dust of our comrades and our loved ones they were of our generation, out of our hearts and homes. Soon other hands alone will be detailed for this diaty. but we have no fears they will fail, for each year it is observed with increasing interest. Last year, in our own State alone, eighty-seven monuments were erected to that silent army, whose resting place is unmarked, who after each hard fought battle, answered not the roll-call, and whose names were marked missing, who are scattered afar over Southern battle-fields, dropping, faint and exhausted, out of the long forced inarches, perishing in prison pens. To these let us drop a tear and erect a shaft crowned with evergreens and strewn with flowers, perishable though they be. Let them be renewed year after year in memory of that great army of unknown dead who are no less heroes, though no marble marks their resting place. Green be their graves, aud sacred the memory of those who died in defense of the Union.

Bring flowers, and strew them or the graves where

Bring wreathes and garlands bright, a loving guard to Plant flags, the flag for which they died, With every star undimed, their glory and their

It is well the song, the sigh, the flowers, the tears cannot restore them to earth again. O, brave and true, farewell, Though south winds make your knell, And sprigs of cypress fell Upon your grave In memory shall abide, The gallant ones who dlea,^ Our land to save. No better place to die beneath the sun, No better time than when our duty's done, I

County Medical Society.

The County Medical society held an interesting meeting at the Presbyterian church last Tuesday. There was a larger number in attendance. Dr. Cline, of Indianapolis, was present, and the subject of "Galvano-Cautery" was the principal? topic under discussion. These meetings are quite profitable and should be attended by every doctor in the county.
