can tell what the principles of the

Democratic party are at present. Just ask your Democratic neighbor to enumerate them.

LABOR, wheat and silver haw not been so low priced in 30 years as they are today. That means "laboring men and farmers should vote the Republican ticket.

IT IS

not necessary to be a Republican

or Democrat just because you were born in the faith. Use your thinkers, decide for yourself. Republican rule gave this country prosperity, Democratic rule is giving us a strong dose of hard times.

OCCASIONALLY one tears of a factory starting up or a new one commencing business. It is, however, at a 25 per cent reduction in wages and this seems about the average reduction for the Wilson bill. This means a loss of $3,000,000,000 yearly to the American wage earners and their families

UXDEK the llepublican protective tariff as administered by its friends, this couutry has paid off a debt of at least $3,000,000,000. "Wages were high and the people prosperous. Under the Democratic administration the National debt is being increased, wages are cut down, and millions of people have no work, even at the reduced wages At the old wages, averaging $2.00 a day for skilled labor, 20,000.000 people received $12 000,000,000 a year. At the present reduction of 25 per cent that means a circulation $3,000,000,000 less. That means the difference between prosperity and hard times.

AX

Committeemen.

illustration of how badly people

want work at low wages, we cite Putnam county, this state. The county commissioner advertised for bids for the repairs and maintenance of the free gravel roads of the county. The county was divided into 36 sections and desire for work was so great that 249 bidders were on bands. The prices made were regular old Martin Van Buren, Jimmy Buchanan, hard times, Democratic prices. The lowest contracts were 49 cents per man for laborers and $1.30 a day for a man and a team. Some of the prices ranged higher, but only three contracts were made for teams at over $2 and thirty-two at less. This shows that men are willing to work at very low prices, under the Cleveland administration. Just think how much better wages were under the Republican administration and how much more work there was. Even the low wages above quoted, pay as well as farming at Cleveland prices for wheat, oats, hogs, cattle, poultry, eggs, etc. The way to do is for all to vote the Republican ticket and prosperity will again reign in our land. Now, do not act the partisan and just de terniine to vote your party ticket whether or no but use your thinker and then vote for the principles, the party and the men that will make times better in this country, in America, labor more abundant and wages higher. Now don't be a chump, think, act, vote.

THE Sugar Trust even after it got a cent and quarter duty put on suga1* by the Senate, soon found out that the duty would cut no figure so long as the McKinley reciprocity treaties were in effect but at the request of the Trust the Democrat Senate very promptly voted to annul them. That means that farmers will pay a cent and a quarter a pound more for sugar and that his pork, beef and flour cannot enter Germany, Austria, France and Spain without paying a duty, thus pork and cattle will be a cent or two a pound lower. This Democratic Congress is taking care of the Whiskey and Sugar Trusts, the New York Jews who want bonds, Cleveland's syndicate friends in the coal and lumber business and letting the interests of the farmers and wage earners generally go to Halifax. It is certainly time for said farmers and wage earners to arouse themselves and look out for their own interests. Vote to protect American industries and to restrict foreign immigration. What good will it do to keep out the work of foreigners if we allow pauper foreign laborers free access to our countryj Just now Gresham is trying to conclude a treaty with China whereby hordes from the Celestial Empire will be allowed to over run this country and cut down the wages of free American laborers. Away with Gresham and his "Heathen Chinee."

Fire Near the 4»uymon Houae.

The prolonged whistle at Black & Gordon's planing mill at 10:30 o'clock Monday night, made known that there was a Are in town. After hundreds had got out on the street and discovered it to beau outhouse at the Guymon House, they were thoroughly disgusted. Fortunately the wind wad not strong in the direction of the Guymon House, or there would have been a tremendous conflagration. The fire originated from a carelessly dropped match, perhaps. The loss was about $100.

Gas.Explosion at tlie Paper Mill.

Monday morning about 7 o'clock while Alva Sample, the engineer at the paper mill was looking after the engines in the engine room, a teriiflc explosion occurred in the ad jaceat or boiler rooms. It seems the gas was for a moment cut off or the fire went out in one of the furnaces and the gas coming on again, collected in a large quantity and igniting from one of the other furnaces, exploded with terrific force. The ends of the boilers were blown out and the foundation shattered, the windows broken, the roof badly demoralized and the big smoke stack set over at an angle of 45 degrees. The damage amounted to $100 or $200, but repairs were at once begun and the mill is now running.

A NtWGOSFEL.

Record of 'the Tribe of Grover Cleveland.

The following is from the Salt Lake Tribune of January 14, and hits off the peculiarities and proclivities of Democrats in a manner both severe and satirical:

BOOK OF GROVER.

(By Hezekia.h, the Scrihe.)

CHAPTER I.

Now it came to pass in the last days that the followers of Grover the great, surnamed the goldite, the same which begat Ruth and Esther and the panic and the Hawaiian trouble, were vexed with vexation exceedingly, inasmuch as they listeth not to the locality where they abideth at

For behold, in the beginning they girded up their loins and went before the people, crying with aloud voice. Verily, we say unto men that we are Groverites, fl-oin exceeding far back, and woe unto ye who forget it.

And verily, we hold in exceeding great detestation that which the children of men call the tariff, for is il not a tiling fashioned for our enemies, the same wh'ch has licked the everlasting stuffing

ouu ui us

from generation to generation!

Yea. verily, this same little protective tariff, it buikleth furnaces in the valley and smokestacks on the mountain top: it turneth the wheels of progress, and causeth the desert to blossom like unto green bay tree.

Wherefore do we of the tribe of Grover the great despise the same as a curse and abomination in the sight of men.

Yea, as a stench that offendeth our nostrils, the same which we smelieth from afar off.

And behold, in the great and terrible day of the ballot, when the army of voters be gathered together, shall we arise in oar might and smite our enemies into mince meat.

Yea, vye shall lay them out cold on a platform of free trade, and cover them over with planks of tariff reform.

And our enemies shall be scattered like unto the leaves of the forest, for Grover shall rend them into fragments like unto a potter's vessel, the which hath been smitten by the flipper of a youth, and then shall the end come.

For in that day shall our banner be planted on the outer wall of the great citadel of the nation, and we shall bow down unto Grover, our deliverer, who shall henceforth be known as our preservor on Mount Buzzard.

And he shall reign for four years, and shall shower good times and fat offices and special messages and free raw materials upon us in rich abundance forever.

And the black smoke of industry shall no longer obscure the noonday sun, and the farmer shall wear pants woven in foreign parts' and socks from the isles of the sea.

And it was even so. And after the space of a time, Grower, who was a mighty fisher girded up his lines and his chattels and his cabinet and went and pitched his tent over against the capitol which is in the land of Columbia and the band played, behold the cat has come back.

CHAPTER II.

Now when Grover was crowned king of the nation it came to pass that he was puffed up in the pride of his heart and his other viscera, inasmuch as his raiment became several cubits too small to contain his joblots.

And he shook himself by the hand, which is after the manner of his tribe, and spake unto himself, saying, Ha, ha.

Behold

I

am monarch of all

I

can get.

Four years more of Grover four years more in clover. Oh America, America, How often would

I

have gathered you

under my wing, but ye would not. But now

I

have ye on the hip, and ye

are confronted with a condition, not a theory, for behold,

I

And

I

will rule or ruin

ye. Yea, verily, to begin with, I will brandish my great silver sword, and all who believe on me and do my will shall have an office, and all who don't shall be broke.

will call my soothsayers together

and they shall tinker at the tariff, and when they have finished their tinkering, McKinley, the father of the factory, will not recognize the same.

And it shall come to pass that all ye who hearken unto the sound of my voice, shall have a sewing machine from Glasgow at cost and ten off, and corrugated copper gaskets from the ends of the earth.

And when Grover had spake these words he crew twice, and the people went out and wept bitterly.

CHAPTER III.

And after a space of a time it came to pass that when the shepherds took of the firstlings of their flock and sheared them, and went 'up to the city to exchange their fleeces for pieces of silver, the wise men of the city said unto them:

Not this season some other season. Yea, Grover is great. He is all wool and a yard wide, but the slump in wool is several cubits wider.

And the shepherds marveled exceedingly and some of them,* yea even they which had harkened unto the voice of Grover smote their breasts and went up and down with bent heads crying to one another, "Behold if thou wilt kicK me I will do even so unto thee."

And when the diggers of the earth went np with their silver and lead and precious stonesand said unto the money changers, "Give us food that we may eat, and clothing that we may dress up," the money changers laughed little cold, •hard laugh?, land sang songs of great sacrilege, saying: "Grover, Grover four years more of Grover we would bujr your lead, but times are dead, till four more years are over," and other psalms.

And when they heard the psalmists many hired kickers and others tore their hair, and all themhabitants of the nation said damn.

And it came to pass that the storms came and the panic decended and the children of darkness lifted up their hands and wrung them in great lamentation, saying: "Wherefore art thou, Grover our deliverer, and wherefore art the good time at?" and a mighty voice came back from the wilderness saying: "The president is fishing and must not be disturbed.'"

CHAPTER IV.

And it came to pass that the. children of the desert, yea even the remnant of the tribe of Grover which dwelleth in the valley of the Jordon, the same which floweth from Lebi round about Bluff

HARRY STRICKLAND,

North of Court-House.

Dale unto the Dead Sea they buckleth on their armor and cutteth a wide swath. And t.hey lifted up their voices, saying: "Behold a mighty tribe are we. a mighty man is Grover, yea, a mighty man is Grover, yea, a mighty profit, and he hath promised us mighty good times if we remain faithful and uncomplaining and obedient apd busted to the end. "And behold we are his children and it behoov es us to obey our great father, for is is not writ that obedience is better than sacrifice and to hearken than the fat of rams? "Wherefore will we cleave unto Grover, and his great notions through thick and thin, through weal and woe, through poverty and distress and financial ruin, even unto death, for ever and ever, amen.

Dear Sir:.'—I have been notified by Hoke Smith that they did not want me on the pension rolls any longer. I want to let the old soldier boys of Hancock county know this through your paper. I hope they will remember me whenever they go to the polls to vote. I served three years in Company B., 28 Mo. Iuftry and went with Sherriian on his march to the sea. luy thirty days was up the

AARON FOSTER.

We can understand why rebel bri adiers can support Cleveland, Hoke Smith, et al and their rebel pension policy, but how any old union soldier can is very mysterious and past finding out. It was un outrage and a slap in the face to all union soldiers, to have Hoke Smith, a son of a rebel, and from the south, to be put at the head of the department that controls pensions.

Mr. Foster, the writer of the above, has been a resident of Hancock county, north-west ot Greenfield for several years, and ia well known to our people, especially the 6. A. R. boys. That man deserves a pension. Personally I know nothing of his physical condition, whether he was wounded or not, but all old union soldiers who are now in the evening of life and rapidly passing away, who need assistance shonld have it. They bared their breasts and went forth into the Southland to do and to die that their country might live, and living or dead, this country owes them a debt which can never be paid.

ot

the men that

marched through Hoke's State with Sherman, on his great march to the sea, no wonder that son of a rebel wants to even up now. Just wait until the people get a whack at Cleveland, Hoke et al and they will be inquriug "where were we at when the cyclone struck as."

Big Premiums for Grain Kxliibits at the Hancock Comity fair.

The Hancock County Fair Association intends this year to make an extra effort to secure a fine display of farm products. With this end in view and as an inducement to the farmers of Hancock couuty to make an exhibit of their products, the following premiums are offered:

has had the

pleasure of being with him in a number of counties and can say that his chances for the nomination are first-class. Tt would be well, however, for ali of his friends to secure a delagate or two for him wherever it is possible.The papers over the state have been kind to Mr. Black in their mention of him, and we could give many extracts, but the following from the Rushville Republican shows the general feeling wherever Mr. B. has gone. "Richard A. Black, of Greenfield, is a candidate for Clark of the Supreme Court whe, starting with many friends, is steadily making more. Although still comparatively a young looking man, Mr. Black was a soldier, with a fine record, and is a Republican tried and true. He is a gentleipan of greit popularity, as shown by his successful race for the oflice of Clerk of Hancock county, some years ago when he overcame a heavy Democratic majority. Mr. Black has energy, is a good speaker, makes a strong aud aggressive canvass and is indorsed by his Hancock county friends as in every way qualified for the important place which be is seeking."

Mmison's Livery Stable and tlie Indiana House liuriied.

Wednesday moruing at 2 a. m. Greenfield was again aroused by the cry of fire and Munson's livery barn near the depot was discovered to be on fire in the rear Mr Munson and his son who were sleeping in the stable office opened their door aud saw the stable on tire. With help tliey got out what horses and rigs they could but four good horses including a fine black stallion perished in the flames. Mr. Munson's loss was about $800 with $500 insurance. The flames soon enveloped the adjacent Indiana House which had been vacated just a week ago by Harry King and wife who moved to Indianapolis. Nothing could be done to save the house but it required considerable effort to save the other houses north on Mechanic Street, over on Main Street and even farther north as large sparks aud pieces of burning shiugles were carried for several squares.

Dr. S. S. Boots aud his father, Joseph Boots, owned both the Indiana House and the livery barn and their loss amounted to from $2,500 to $3,000 with an insurance of $2,500. As the property was unoccupied and the insurance carried for a short time on a special permit, only threefourths of the amount on the house can be collected unless the full amount wonld come under the ten days clause. The fire showed the frightful need of' water works. Let the work on them be pushed.

The New Council to be Organised.

Friday night, April 6th is the time sot to organize the new Council here. The Council will have a large membership of those who have withdrawn from Knightstown and McCordsville and has petitions for 26 new members. This insures a grand success. The fact is, however, the Masonic Orders here have outgrown their preseot ball and will either have to quit admitting new members or build a more commodious temple. A large and handsome building with an Opera House, in connection therewith, is now in contemplation. The Order needs such a building, the city needs it and the county needs it. As a Masonic city, Greenfield ranks among the first in the state of its size and a temple that would honor the Order and city is au absolute necessity. This would be a great year in which to build anew Masonic Home, as material and work are both cheap and the labor in connection therewith, would be of great assistance to those in need of work. There are several suitable sites, let a good one be Becured and the Order add lasting honor to its name and deserve, the praise and commendation of all our people.
