Samuel Walker, the People's party candidate for congress, spoke at the courthouse last Saturday night to a fair-sized audience. He spent a great deal of time in arguing propositions that no one disputes, viz.. that labor is the greatest factor in producing the necessaries and luxuries of life. The f*ct is that 90 per cent, is laQbr, and the Republican party believes in protecting that. 2nd, that labor is entitled to its just rewards, and should have all that it earned. That also is true, and there is no use in wasting time arguing the point. Mr. Walker very thoroughly exposed the Democratic wildcat money scheme and denounced it in proper terms. His claim as to the country not being prosperous is not verified by observation, by the experience of the people or by the mercantile reports. America is undoubtedly the most pros-

Sr.

irous country on the face of the earth, Walker was also particularly severe on Grover Cleveland and his unfriendly attitude toward silver. Mr. Walker is a good speaker, but the REPUBLICAN does not agree with his statement of facts and his theory of legislation.

J. W. Comstock one of our most enterprising and well to do farmery has purchased the property on West Walnut St. known as the Presbyterian church parsonage. Consideration $1,750 which is considered a great bargain as it is worth $2,000. Mr. Comstock is remodeling it with a view to making it his residence.

Messrs W. C. Dudding and W. II. Moore, returned last Saturday from a large and very successful d« livery of fruit trees in Iowa. They were in twelve or fifteen cities lighted by electricity, but said that none of them compared with Greenfield. The fact is we have a great electric light.

Last Friday night the high wind blew the heavy board sign of S. P. Joyce, the tailor, through one of the plate glass windows of the Gant block, and it also broke some show cases for M. K. Cummins, the baker. As the window cost $76, the total damage was about $100.

Mrs. J. E. Pratt has purchased the elegant residence pioperty of Manville Gant on North State street, consideration$4,250. This is one of the finest residence in this city. Mr. Gant then purchased the Pratt property on North Pennsylvania street for $2,000.

Mrs. Mary E. Martin who has been sick with consumption for several months died Tuesday morning November 1st. Funeral Thursday morning at 9:30, at her home 78 Walnut-s. Services conducted by Rev. J. A. Lewellen. Interment at Hawkins cemetery, at Philadelphia. H. Rottman, funeral director.

Two Barns Burned in Greenfield Monday, a little before noon, the barns of Jas. L. Smith and Jas. L. Duncan, who live in the 1&orth-$ast part of the city were burned together with their contents. Mr. Smith was picking apples in his yard when the fire caught, and soon gave the alarm but it was impossible to stay the flames. Mr. Smith a few moments before saw some small boys run down the alley with a burning broom and the fire is supposed to have started in that way. John Peters was keeping his family horse and buggy in Smiths barn and succeeded in getting his buggy out, but the flames had gained such headway that it was impossible to get the horse out, and it burned to death. It was fearful to hear its snorting and squealing as it tried to escape. The fire soon caught the Duncan barn, a new one, and it went up with 75 bushels of corn and 2 tons of hay, everything else being got out. C. J. Hamiltons house and barn both caught fire a time or two, but it was put out, as the citizens fought bravely and kept the flames from spreading farther. Mr. Smiths loss was $150 with $100 insurance, Mr. Duncans loss was $250 fully covered by insurance, both in the Home of New York. The loss of Mr. Peters was $85.00 with no insurance. The citizens of that part of town are indeed grateful to the neighbors and friends who so kindly and numerously came to their assis ance.

A Cutting Scrape at Masonic Hall. Last Thursday night a public dance was given at Masonic Hall. A number of the men in attendance were somewhat under the influence of liquor and quarrelsome. Kim Duncan engaged in a fight with Walter Scott and pummelled him, and when Charles Morford attempted to stop the fighting Duncan attacked him, aud Morford, after attempting to keep out of the racket, would have brained him with a chair, had he not missed his lick. Duncan was put out of the hall a time or two, but kept fighting his way back until he and Dick Curry, who was furnishing the music, came together. Dick was assisting in keepiug ordfcr when Duncan attacked him, aud in the melee wa3 badly cut with a pen-knife. He was cut clear across the back of the neck, behind the left ear, and stabbed once in the base of the neck and lour times iu the head. It is simply a wonder that Duncan was not killed. He lost much blcod, however, before he was taken to his room at the Grand Hotel, where his wouuds were dressed by Dr. N. P. Howard, Jr. Mr. Duncan is getting along weil au will recover. Tut: witnessed do not attach much blame to Curry,s actions. No man, however, phould use a knife, but the fact is lighting is dangerous business.

Kepublleans Will lie Victorious

The most cheering reports come all along the line. Harrison wiil carry every northern state with possibly one exception, and may carry a southern state or two. The Democrats are discouraged and crying, Fraud! Fraud 1 The Republicans are buying our votes. Shame on such a cry. Even Cleveland talks that way. Every Republican is expected to do his duty. To win in Indiana we must have out all our votes. Hancock county Republicans do your duty. Elect Harrison, Reid, Chase, Henry, Mitchell and the entire Republlcan ticket.
