EJThe Stars and Stripes should float to the breeze from every school house in Hancock county.

The American flag should float from every school house in Hancock county. It is an inspiration for patriotism.

All of the descendants of Columbus are to be invited to the World's Fair and will be the guests of Uncle Sam.

The present Democratic Congress has sliced $11,000,000 off of the pension appropriations for this year. Some soldiers may find the funds short the last of the year.

All cities where the post-office receipts for three years preceeding have exceeded $90000 are to have a federal building erected for a post-office. Greenfield is on the list.

Geo. W. Stewart, Democratic trustee of Flatrock township in Bartholomew county, cut down an Ash flag staff which the patrons of a school had erected in the Bctaool yard. He asserted that no flag should float there except from a hickory pole. He evidently cares more for a pole than he does for the "Stars and Stripes:" America's emblem of freedom.

President Harrison uttered a grand truth in his last message as follows: "Rarely if ever before in the history of the country has there been a time when the proceeds of one day's labor or the product of one farmed acre would purchase so large an amount of those tilings that enter into the living of the masses of the people."

While the roads of Hancock county are generally good they should not be injured this spring by heavy hauling. The fine is $50 and the law is as follows. Narrow- tired wagons must not haul more than 2000 pounds, while the broad tires are limited to 2500 pounds. This law is in force until the roads are perfectly dry and hard.

The Missouri Legislature, Democratic of course has passed a bill redisricting the state which makes fourteen congressional districts Democratic and oneRepublican. The state is now not largely Democratic, but its gerrymanders make and keep it so. Such action amounts almost to treason, it disfranchises the people. The finited States government can and should pass a law against congressional gerryman dering at least.

The Indianapolis Journal of March 9th, was an especially great paper. As usual it contained all the news, National State, and local and a number of special features It gave an excellent county map of the state with a number of valuable statistics. It gave a history of the progress of of the Journal from its inception. The Journal is a great paper and deserves its large and increasing patronage. There are few places in the state where the Daily Journal can not be easily obtained and Republicans should all take it, and Democrats too, who desire to read Indianas greatest and best newspaper.

Sekator Stockbridge, of Michigan, who was on the same train with Mr. Cleveland on the latter's return trip from Ann Harbor, says that he is certain that Cleveland "could carry Canada without a struggle, he was received with the wildest enthusiasm on the other side of the line." This is quite natural. Canadians and other subjects of Queen Victoria know pretty well who their friends are in the United States. Free-trade, to which Cleveland and the other "reformers" are committed, can only mean profit to Englishmen at the expense of our people. Hence the great enthusiasm among Canadians for the apostle of American Cobdenisni.

The Democratic newspapers whicb in a diplomatic contest between the United States and Great Britain always take the side of the latter should not be especially popular with the Irish Americans of this country. It is curious that not withstanding the attitude of the Democratic party on the tariff and other questions always been favorable to England the Irish citizens of the United States arc largely Demvcrntlc in politics. England oppresses Ireland, and the Irish, and the Democrats of lie United States desire to aid the English iu said oppression by making that country richer and more powerful and yet the Irish vote the Democrtic ticket. It remains to be seen whether they will longer continue blindly voting the Democratic ticket which certainly is against the interest of the Emerald Isle, their beloved America and the welfare of themselves and children.

Congressman Harter of Ohio, a rampant Democrat, is bitterly opposed to free silver coinage and is doing what he can to prevent the big Congressional Democratic majority from committing political suicide. He cannot do it however, as the above mentioned Democratic majority has already demonstrated that would not do to trust the three controlling branches of the government to the Democratic party. Harter is helping the Republicans all he can, and so are the other Democrats for that matter, and he speaks as follows of the silver question: "I think the more the subject is agitated the better it will be for the anti-sil-ver men. I have recieved from the census office some figures that should stagger these men who are running like sheep after the bell-weather of free silver. There are 1,200,000 holders of life insurance policies in this country. 2,000,000 depositors in saving banks, 800,000 people holding stock in building and savings associations and 800,000 pensioners, to say nothing of the many friends of old soldiers. Every one of the classes I have enumerated will be the sufferer by a depreciated money, and to go to these people on the strength of legislation that seeks to force them to accept seventy cents for a dollar is the wildest kind of nonsense. They will spew the Democratic party out, as they ought to."

DIED

REV. GEORGE HAVENS.

This faithful ser\ .nt of the Master died at Ladoga, Indiana, at the house of his son, Abraham I Uveas, March 8th, 1892, at about 10 o'clock, a. m., aged a few months over 76 years. He had previously a slight stroke of paralysis. But for some time before his death apparently fairly well he had anticipated a sudden death. His last sickness was only for a few honrs. He died fully conscious and in the Christian faith. What he had preached to others, he, himself believed at the final hour. He is buried in McMaster's Cemetery near Indianapolis, where his body will sleep until the Master calls. His father, the Rev. James Havens, emigrated from Kentucky to Ruffh county, Indiana, about 70 years ago. He had two sons, George and Landy Havens. All Methodist preachers. Among the pioneer preachers in the M. E. church in eastern and central Indiana, none did more useful work for the cause than did the father and his two sons. Rev. James Havens was able, untiring, incessant and courageous as a circuit rider and as a presiding elder. He had few equals in the pulpit and knew no fear. He sleeps at Rushville Cemetery. But it is more particularly of Rev. Geo. Havens that this is written.

He became a Methodist Church Circuit Rider in 1838 and preached on the Greenfield circuit in 1839, and continued as an active preacher with only two ©r three intervals, until he superannuated in 1880. During his, ministry he preached over nearly all eastern and central Indiana, and for a period of over forty years. He was stationed at Greenfield from 1872 to 1875, and although not as able a sermonizer as some others, none were more use ful or more popular with the people, so much so that all, in and ouc of the church regretted when his time had come to go elsewhere. Rev. George Havens was truly "a chip off the old block." He was an honest, frank and bold Christian man, with all that, that implies. He had the confidence of all who knew him, and was loved by all, both Christian and sinner. He was a good husband, a kind father, a good neighbor, a true friend, a good citizen and a liberal Christian. All these noble qualities were united in him, and yet like all, since the fall of Adam, he was not without frailties. This is not intended as a eulogy, but simply facts. If he could speak he would repudiate any fulsome eulogy of himself. This is a fast age and memories are gradually growing briefer than in former years, but the memory of the names and labors of the Havens, Father and sons will not very soon be forgotten in eastern and central Indiana. They have 'painted for eternity.' Their works will follbw them.

The writer of this brief reference, to the lives and labors of the father and sons would be reproached by his conscience and heart, if he should neglect so obvious a duty to such noble old men. More than fifty years ago, the writer and George Havens were students at Asbury, and as intimate as brothers, reciting lessons to President Simpson, afterwards Bishop Simpson. Knowing George Havens as he did, the writer is not surprised at his last and dying words, "My work is done, I am ready to die." With the utterance of these last words, he crossed the great rolling river to meet his venerable father, brother, wife and many otht dear friends, on the other and better shore. Farewell old friend, through grace we will hope to meet again in the better land.
