THE principal factors favoring free trade for America are British manufacturers, New York importers and men who care more for their own selfish interests than than they do for building up the Country generally.

THE new cheap fuel gas, which can be made by the Harris process, is a wonderful invention. The gas will cost only from 1K to 5 cents per 1,000 feet, and at that rate will be very cheap, both for heating and illuminating purposes. Hon. J. N. Huston, of Connersville, is one of the principal stockholders and the President of the American Gas Company, which will push the business.

THE Hill, Gormon Tammany combine did the Cleveland-Miils organization in a handsome manner by selecting Charles Frederick Crisp of Americus. Ga. for speaker. The majority even of the Democrats rather lean away from the ultra free trade views of Cleveland and Mills. The fact is the Republican doctrine of protection is right and thinking Democrats can see that it is best to build up manufacturing industries in this country.

QUITE a large number of English and Scotch manufacturing establishments,, have been removed to the United States, during 1891, and many more will come during 1892. This is brought about by the McKinley tariff. The United States welcomes manufacturing establishments. They build up a country. Has not our own city and county been benefitted by new industries located here? Then be a protectionist and locate many more, not only in the United States, but right here in Hancock county.

PROOFS that the Allience movement in the south will not antagonize the Demo* cratic party are constantly turning up. The latest is the withdrawal of the Alliance candidate for the vacancy in the Eight Virginia Congressionial district caused by the death of the late Representative Lee. This withdrawal was made after all arrangements had bean made to make an aggressive canvass of the district, with the assistance of the Alliance contingent in congress and the only reason therefor is that the Republicans of the district have nominated a candidate. The Alliance people, although claiming to have been snubbed and insulted by the regular Democrats, will swallow their grievances rather than to take any chances of the election of a Republican.

THE hearing of the arguments bv the Supreme Court in the three cases brought for the purpose of breaking down the McKinley tariff law which took place this week was not calculated to encourage the gentleman who have been persuaded to furnish the money to hire the high-priced lawyers. One of these suits is brought on the ground that the omission of the tobacco rebate clause from the bill as signed by the President makes the whole bill void another that the sugar bounty clause was uuconstitutional and the other that the reciprocity clause is unconstitutional. For convenience the -three cases were heard as one, and if there was any doubt of what the final decision will be it was almost entirely dissipated by the tenor of the questions put by the Justices during the argument to the lawyers. The Constitutionality of the law was ably maintained by Attorney General-Miller and Solicitor General Taft.

POSTMASTER-GENERAL Wanamaker, comes out with a great report concerning the post- office department. It is a wonderful establishment, but bids fair to make astounding developments in the next few years. Mr Wanamaker recommends that free delivery not only be established in the smaller cities and towns, but, that it be extended to the country and more thickly settled farming distriots. The system which has been tried in forty-five districts during the past year, more than pays its own way and leaves a net surplus for the government. The government is also urged to take hold of the telephone and telegraph systems, when a three and a ten cent rate respectivly, would soon be obtained. Farmers would then be brought in close connection with the rest of the world. The parcels post, is also recommended, which would do away largely, with the excessive charges of the express companies on small packages. A postal savings bank is also considered and it would indeed be a great institution. Mr. Wanamaker believes, that with a close and systematic busines organization, that penny postage is only a matter of a few years. The post-office department is doing better than ever before and postmasters everywhere, giving better service. There are, however, some exceptions, and when postmasters or their assistants are not clever, accommodating, capable and courteous, they should be bounced.

Wilkins Beckner, Proprietors.

THE wheat market will have a tendency to become a little stronger as the Government report issued to-day will show that the outlook for next year crop is not fully up to a a

MR. BYXUM, is left out iu the cold. He was not in the race for Speaker, and as his favorite, Roger Q. Mills, the Freetrader, got left, Mr. Bynum will hardly be in it for any important chairmanship.

IT WAS a great contest at Washington which the Democrats had over the speakership last Saturday. It was Cleveland, Mills, fcee trade, an income tax and a gold basis against Hill, Gorman, Crisp, free silver and protection. Crisp won on Monday.

PEFFEE, the Farmers Alliance.Senator, has appointed his son as his private secretary, and has rented the fine houso formerly occupied by Senator Ingalls. He seems to be catching on to Washington ways right fast. How will he explain to his farmer friends. r"

"SECTIONALISM slumbered sweetly during the recent exciting scenes in Washington," so says the Indianapolis Sentinel. Of course it slumbered sweetly, the northern Democrats simply surrendered +o the South. Congressman Bynum, Morse the editor of the Sentinel ar.d others were there fighting Messrs Springer and Hatch the northern and western Democratic candidates and supporting the southern brigadiers. Of course "Sectionalism slumbers sweetly" when the south hogs it all and the northern democrats stand by and even help them do it.

THE Democratic Congressmen do not seem to be firmly settled upon just what they want to do. They went to Washington pledged to annihilate the present tariff and pass an unlimited free coinage bill. Mills however the ultra free trader had weakened on free coinage according to Clevelands program so Crisp the Hill, Gorman, Tammany candidate was elected speaker as he was for free coinage and a leaning toward protection being of the Randall school and living in Georgia a state which is becoming converted to protection on account of her numerous industries. $ .. 1}

FREE traders seem determined to not see things as they are. They argue by supposing something which never happened and never will happen and reasoning from it. If they desired to be fair why not take the facts as they are and reason from them. Facts are better than things imagined. At one time we paid ten cents a pound for nails from England. A tarifi of four cents per pound caused what, nails to be sold at fourteen cents per pound that is the fret traders idea, oh no, it simply caused a great industry to be built up in this country and now with a tariff of four cents per pound you can buy nails at $1.85 per keg ef 100 lbs. It is the same with calico and a thousand other articles.

The County Records Being Examined.

Messrs. S L. Wallace, of Indianapolis, formerly of Spencer, Owen county, and George S. Jones, of Mt. Vernon, Posey county, both ex-Auditors of their old counties, are here, running through the Treasurers books since 1870. In about every county in the State, where delinquent poll taxes have been paid, in the distribution of the same, the State has only received the same per cent, as in reel or personal property whereas, she was entitled to $1.00 on each poll and only received about 30 cents. It will probably take $2,000 or more from this county. Some counties, notably, Boone and Montgomery, are much more, as it will take about $5,000 from each of them.

Card of ThfinkH.

I desire to return my heartfelt thanks to the members of the I. O. O. F. fraternity both of Greenfield and Charlottesville and to the students and professors of the Dental College at Cincinnati where my departed husband and myself were in attendance as well as to the many friends who have so kindly ministered to our wants and assisted during the sickness and at the funeral of my beloved husband. Their many acts of kindness and loving words have done much to lighten the burden of my grief and they will not be forgotten but will ever live in my memory. And I especially desire to express my appreciation of the kindness of our classmates Messrs. Cole and Cox, who were sent as representatives of the college to accompany us on onr sad journey home and at the funeral.
