The campaign of 1892 is past It has recorded a decisive Democratic victory. TheRepublican Party is cast down but not destroyed. The principles upon v^hi^h true Republicanism are founded, are pght and will prevail. The army of gallant workers and diciplined soldiers must be maintained: let us again rally rousd the old flag, take up the Republican banner, establish a policy that will win for itself the confidence and support of the American people, and restore the Republican party to power.
A,«plendid system of club organization was built up in Indiana during the campaign just past, and we believe that the influence and efforts of these clubs is contributed largely to the holding the majority in Indiana, in this year of political landslides, down to a normal vote. To permit the organization to die or pass into disuse now. would be to lose the work of the past campaign.
Webelieve that the Democracy with its tendencies to mistakas, will disappoint the j^ople in its administration, and that they, will be swept from power in 1896 by a jaeater majority and a more decifc&j vote than were the Republicans in the recent election. To insure this result,:^ will be necessary to keep up our politKnd organization. The Republican clubs%i this county should keep np their oigannation.
Secure wherever possible, permanent club Quarters. In this way we will have an anrfy.of young, active working Rcpublican?Aalways ready for active service whon they are needed or called upon. A permanent political organization can be of ^gre# service to the Republican party.
Let tis make the Lincoln League in Hancock county an organization of political workers that will give to the Republican Party thoroughly equipped workeij* ready at any and all times f*r political .work. In many counties in the State,, 'tjhis work has already been taken up andjts projectors a A meeting with gratifying success.
Evet^" school district, every village and town itf/tjhe county, should have a club which iftpuld have for its ebject, the advancement of the interests of the Republican £&tty. Literary and social features should'be added to the program* that as manj^nember8 as possible may be induced to join and take part in the work. Adopfiyioine system whereby you can carry this plan and let the work be continued.

Good Gravel Koads.
Some one in some paper argues against the construction of roads, claiming that they impoverish the farmer and shape his nose still more to the financial grindstone. Ou the contrary they are one great source of economy and are clamored for by every citizen that has a jot of enterprise in his make up. They have a great civilizing influence, from the fact that people can mingle with each other, visit the cities and towns and be more able to "catch on" to manners in vogue. The farmer can economize the flesh and feed of his teams, save his vehicles, send his children to school and a hundred other things that bad mud roads prevent him from doing. He can double the quantity of his load of gram or nroduce that he proposes takiog to market. He can drive out with his family and be sociable where with bad roads he is compelled to stay at home the most of the jrear. He can take advantage of arise in the market on an article lie has for sale, when bad roads prevent him from doing so. Hancock county people are all justly proud of the rapid progress that is being made in our county in the way of gravel roads, and their universal verdict is decidedly in their favor.
The various road superintendents in the county are doing noble work and graveling many of the most important highways in all parts of the county. Especially is the work of Ellis Pressnell and Lou Morris of near Willow Branch worthy of commendation. They have contributed more to the welfare of their neighberhood by constructing important by ways leading to their town than any other thing has ever done. It has enhanced the value of their land and made it passable and easy for people to go to and from their town in most any direction and this is of more immediate and direct importance to them than 'who shall be President." Let the good work continue by all means and let the good roads of our county be our pride, which will contribute more to our importance as a progressive county and people, than any other thing.
