State Central committee wishes to secure a number of State bank bills to place in the hands of speakers during the campaign. Persons who have any of these bills will confer a favor by leaving them at this office.

IF any man votes for W. D. Bynum for Congress, he will do so just because he wants to, for there is no good reason wliy any should, as he has dune nothing to merit a re-election. Ask some of Bynums friends to name one single thing he has done in eight years tiiat ha? resulted in. benefiting the UI viz JUS of Haucock county.

JUDCE GJtiisii.YM, uf Chicago, has decided

to vote

for Cleveland, so a friend,

Judge AIL-J, of Springfield, III.,says. It is mn at all surprising. He has the presidential bee iu his bonnet and has tried for tlie Republican nomination several times hut failed. This year he would have accepted the Peoples party nomination, but knew that they di.-ln't stand the ghost of show.' He is now getting ready for a grind flop, and will no doubt stand ready and willing to take a nomination from the Democrats for President iu 1SS)(. The Democrats will be wilir-.g to nominate him, too, for with Cleveland knocked out as he will be ou Nov1. 8th, it will be "Oh Lord anybody" with the Democrats, and renegade republicans arc extremely popular with that party any. ho,w. Although Gresham has done some heavy grandstand playing he would be out classed and defeated worse than poor old Horace Greeley.

While in Morristown recently I met Thos. Anderson, one of onr best friends and most prompt subscribers. A lesson could be learned by several of our. patrons from Mr. A. on prompt payments which would give them abetter standing among their fellow men and relieve the financial strain of their creditors. Bat they wont learn it, preferring to be considered financial dead beats than to be a man among men and pity this is so.

Henry Cole has dissolved partnership with his former partner Mr. Smith and engaged in the Livery business alone in the north part of town. Henry is a jolly good fellow and a success at the livery business.

His brother L. B. Cole, proprietor of the River View stock farm moved to Morristown. He is an impiemeut and vehicle dealer also aud stated that he had a large trade the past sea-son. He was putting up a lawn fence in front of his fathers fine new residence south of Main street. The Cleveland is both ornamental and durable.

W. II. Tyner and wife live on a nice farm just north of Blue River ford. They are growing old together having worked, sang and wept together over half a century. They are in their seventies and a sketch of their experience will appear in our Pionter Sketches. Their son P. S. Tyner tends the home farm. Another son ,1. M. Tyner is now visiting relatives iu the west. The saw mill of Samuel Wiley in Blue River Tp. caught tire aud came near being consumed. This mill is unfortnna as it has been burned two or thrye times.

Geo. Matlock and Mrs. McClintock were preparing to build a nice addition to their res ilcnce south of tlie saw mill. Geo i« owner of Dude liansou by Roger Hanson. He is a standard bred horse and a fine roadster.

Geo. Eaton is one of the most and industrious farmers in Blue River. He is a renter but will own a farm if dame fortune i- as good lo him as he deserves. He lives on a .arm of S. B. Hill just west of the store. Geo. speaks well of Mr. Hill as a Land Lor A.

After along and tedious drive among some of the unfaithful Blue Iliver breth ren vainly coaxing them to assist iu renewing our financial strength. I took dinner at Postmaster Newby's. Mrs N. is a sister of Wm. New deceased and also of Aunt Polly Liuebaok. I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Lizzie Miller of Grant county and her husband A. Miller. rs. -Miller i* also a sister of Mrs. Newby. She was enjoyiug a visit with her sisters. Mr. Miller had me send tyim the REPUBLICAN'to Rigdon P. O.

Elza Newby accompanied me in iny rounds. He has entered a telegraph office for the purpose of completing his studies in telegraphy.

John Nipps of Nipps Mills, Rush Co. has purchased the old mill site of the Wolf mill on Big Blue River. He has put in new machinery and is utilizing the water power which is equal to a fifty horse power engine and cheaper than natural gas. He has bis saw mill in running order and is sawing out lumber for the new barn of 'A. A. Lindsday who has purchased a liitle home near the mills. This is a prominent location and Mr. Nipp talks of building and establishing a Furniture factory there. I met Mr. N. who is a hustler and a fluent talker. He is also a candidate on the People's ticket for Representative. If there was a ghost of a show for him Mr. N. would get there

At Carthage the Straw Board Works were bnsy, It employs a large number of hands and uses tons of straw for which give a respectable price. It is a mammoth institution and quite a benefit. Carth age is well located, a nice clean town and posseses the air of prosperity and advancement. The town and surrounding country are inhabited by a wealthy class of Quakers ail of whom are the best of citizens. The fine new residence of N. C. Binford in town is rapidly nearing completion. The material for^his house was fu.nislied by Black & Gordon of Greenfield, which firm for the genuine elements of success and as aggressive competitors to all doing business in their line cannot be excelled iu the state. We can point with pride to their magnificentinstitution running almost a hundred hands and be iijg operated on a basis that insures the firm great future prosperity. It vvas started in a very small way a few years ago with the very same kind of a combination that cannot fail: A limiied amornt of capital and liberal quantity of healthy active brains, both of which has been kept busy, result, capital increased aa hundred fold. On the east side about midway of Main street, Carthage, Ind., is located the firm whose large ad appears in another column telling the people in unmistakable terms that they have the goods and prices to suit Messrs Wooten and Dennis are youua men who do not have to be coaxed to'catch on to a jsrood _thing when they see it. They kindly showed me through all the depart,nientsof their large store, represented iu their advertisement which arc iilied with goods to suit every one v/itu prices that are paralyzi'.ig to cotii|fiii' is Quick siles and small profits arc HI wiys winners both customers aid mpre.iaiif, and the old stingy hide i»niii-l competitor who is too tiulit to spend a cent f• -r a line of advertising even in in.*, home p.-tper, m'ving it i'i the way of a donation lo the paper if lie puts iu a line concerning his business ouce a year, iiie* the death that lie de serves to die iu the.eud.

We would ik all our readers within the jurisdiction of Wooten & Dennis to read their ad, go and examine their goods and you will buy them. They are undoubtedly giving rare bargains. Mr. Dennis of this firm was formerly iv teacher iu the Hancock County schools and a good one.

We called at W. L. Whites. Mr. W. was formerly a resident of this county. Mrs. W. is a most courteous lady, and an ex schooynama of Hancock. She is a

daughter Aunfcftolly Lhteback. The/ have purcuased a home in» .Carthage and are doing nicely.

Robert Holmes and wife are two as pleasant people as one would desire to meet. They have bought a home near Charlottesville. They have a family so they subscribed for the REPUBLICAN to keep them company.

Uncle Tommy McClarnou is living contented in his nice little home near Charlottesville. Few people have more friends than Mr. and Mrs. Clarnou and they are missed from Greenfield.

I am sorry to cronicle the death of Mrs. A. F. Yetter. wife of the Veteran Horseman of Maple Valley stock farm. She died the 18th and was buried the 20th of September. She is universally spoken of as a most excellent lady, kind aud patient possessing many

The

Tlie

Christian virtues. Mr,

Yetter deserves much sympathy iu the loss of so worthy a companion. Also Miss Emma Thomas, oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Thomas died last Friday and was buried on Saturday at Knightstown. She was a pure and sweet tempered maiden of 19 summers, and will be sadly missed by her numerous young friends and companions as well as at home. Mr. Thorn ts lives south east of Wiilow Branch. He is a Democratic candidate tor Commissioner of the eastern district.

I was most pleasantly and agreeably entertained a night at Wm. Templetons. Mr. T. has never fully recovered from his prolonged and serious illness of last winter, for several week his life hung in the balance, but most excellent nursing and good medical attention brought him though. His wife and Dr. Hamui of Warrington, he thinks were the principal means of his recovery. Mrs. Templeton is a whole host, prudent, economical, industrious aud persevering Many are the evideuces of her industry on every haud She has some fifty head of turkeys as the reward for her labors. Would that all deserving men had such a help mate. Their two little daughters Murlie and Glenuie are studious bright girls aud give promise of being good musicians. They are taking le.-s ns of Miss Deborah McCameld a height and competent musician a niece of Commissioner W. H. Simmons.

Ruskin says: "He is a wise man who is too wise to take offence." Perhaps that is true in a sense, but a man must be a dandy who can maintain his equilibrium at all times arid under all circumstances especially when in the news paper business. One may write kindly of a man in a general «ay for four years, then the first opportunity that man gets to show bis kinship to Balaams saddle horse they do so without delay. Any man that ever felt the scratch of the niatch even in the arsenal of ambition and has the least shadow of a hope of future prosperity aud promiuence, stands by his news paper fir.sfc, last and always and he feels a throb of pride anil satisfaction if ne is brought into notice by a kindly item from his local paper. But other people take those things with a grunt and pass them by as useless. We receive many remarks of thankfulness from some who arc fired with au ambition to do something. Rough but geuuiue diamonds that have beeu smashed iu the quartz mill of defeat and credit who had feit the bitter sting of discouragement, but thought it lay in the thought of every man to meet and master misfortune if faced with inflexible unwavering and unyielding courage.These crude plain brief words "simple and sincere" show how easy it is to command success, when the actor full of enthusiasm inspired by desperation goes for the records with a determination to win.The fellow who thought he was in earnest and said "I'll try" but the other who meant what he said and answered "I Will". The latter is to whom our lives will be solely devoted iu the future. He is appreciative of favors received, we will watch human nature closer and give honest worth a lift wherever we find it, and leave "I'll try" on his seat in the back ground where h's naturally belongs. In every play of life there's the originaHand the aboriginal, the genuine and the counterfeit. Like all the theories and problems in life a single trial will decide the real master of his business from the imitator who thought he could get there by device, stinginess and trickery. Men who would rather be some body here a little while than nobody in the eternal forever, are especially inyited into our columns, none other need apply. Our life and the influence of the greatest local paper, shall be still more devoted to them and interested in their prosperity. Advertising space cheaper in. proportion than any other. Subscription price $1 per year.

iilnes of l.,unl in Madison and H:tiir»ck Counties,

One of Hancock County's best farmers was over iu Madison County last week, looking over a few farms with a view of purchasing one. He found land every where iu Madison county from ten to fifteen dollars per acre higher than tliey are in Hancock county. The cause is found in the large number of manufacturing industries that have been located there aud the magnificent home market which has been built up. The farmers of that county get more for their grain aud for their farm produce than we do here. The farmers of Hancock county should vole for Charles L. Henry for Congress aud in securing his election, help themselves. Mr. Henry hr.s done more for Madison county than any man over there and he cau and will help us. He is in favor of the laws and principles that will locate and Smild up manufactories in this district including Hat cock county. By» num is opposed to tin plate factories and other industries. Henry's rolicy would increase the va.!ue of your lauds and its pioducts liynum's policy would still further reduce the price of your lands aud its products. Why not vote for Henry a"d our own best interests? Fanners do you not want to increase the value of your land $10 or $15 per acre?

Levi Slifer. of Marion, who is visiting hi.- sister, Mrs. Jephart here, will remain until after the election and cast a vote for President Harrison, as every other old soldier who ha* his owu and his comrades welfare jit heart should do. Mr. Slifer says that a big majority of the soldiers who come to the Soldiers Home at Marion j.re Democrats, but that after csrefullv considering the question, more than three fourths of them will vote for Harri«on this fall.

Now many of us know of'the county of Brown but are not able to point out. its boundary lines, dense implies judgemeut, good sense is good judgement, nonsense is what is contrary to judgemeut, common sense is that that is common to all men to a degree, unless they are idiots.

Now "common sense" .expresses native prudence, natural practical intelligence, mother wit, tact in behavior, acuteness in the observation of character.

traits. Theu, consider what a capable business man this definition represents. It carries still farther. He risks little, he understands his business, hs is quick to seize oppo rtunity. Courteous to all, and shrewd in the choice of trieiitfs and helpers. Common sen ye ls'rit so very common after all. We may generalize in a lofty manner about what is good aud beautiful to do. but it is common sense that must reduce onr theories to practice. We can attain no success in life without the exercise of common sense, it should le carefully cultivated and exercised at nil times, tfcen we could secure the proper object of our ottoi ts, and make perseverance available. It would teach us how to

courteous aud gentlemanly,

gain the regard of our fellow man, prize it aud secure a competence. If you have followed me this far my dear merchant friend, official or private citizen, do you not see clearly the need in exercising common sense in every detail of business in the functions ot your cfllce or in your private life? which will give you hearts honest, pure aud generous, your digestion will be good, you will have healthful blood, and where you frowned before you will smile, where you cursed you will sing, where you retaliated some fancied slight or wrong you will take a different course. Then you will be esteemed and valued for your worth, yoji will be fit for something. By the by there are some to whom I have alluded, that believe that what they know or do is the only thing worth knowing or doing, for their rauge of knowledge is so
