COMMON IVEAUSKS IN GREENFIELD

General C. Fry and 300 Troops On the Old Circus Grounds.

Last Sunday evening, E. D. Payne from Terre Haute and T. Salsbury from Los Angeles, Cal., advance representatives for Genl. L. C. Fry, Commander of the Commonweal army at Indianapolis arrived in Greenfield and put up at the Guymon House, where they also engaged headquarters for Genl. J'ry who would arrive next day with the troops. These men secured the old circus ground on East Main street for tenting purposes and had bills struck at the REPUBLICAN office, advertising a lecture by Genl. Fry at night. Fry reached Greenfield Monday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, at the head of his troops, 208 strong. Some small boys had ridden a black charger out to meet the army, and they kindly loaned the animal to the general, who rode him through the city to the camp, on the old circus grounds. The army had Forepaugh's old circus tent, which it is utilizing for a lecture hall and a sleeping apartment. At night about one hundred citizens paid 10 cents each to hear Fry lecture on "How to get rich on the interest of what you owe." It was a ti rade against bankers, principally, but contained some good points. The army asked aid here, but said it expected to be self-sustaining from this oq. From heie the march was to Shelbyville, which they reached Wednesday. From there they went to Rushville. The citizens here showed but very little interest in the movement, and the army did not remain long. The .ict is as is generally the case Greenfield showed excellent judgment in her treatment of Fry and his army. They came and went without a ripple of excitement, except among the small boys who got up a band for the occasion, and were no trouble to any one.

The towns which arrest their leaders and bother with them usually gets the army on its hands for a time. We took the proper course and had no trouble. Three recruits were obtained here, Frank Rockey, Tom Angle and Jim Wilson, who marched away with the army. Had the citizens only known it, they would have assisted the recruiting some more. These men will directly accomplish nothing by their movement, but they may possibly set men to thinking and in this way bring the country to a realization of the fact that economic conditions here are not what they should be.

If agriculture, manufacturing, commerce and all kinds of business were in the proper and healthy condition no grfet bodies of men need be without work. The thing to do is for all voters to carefully study conditions and not theories and then work and vote for that party whose principles and policies will the most surely bring the greatest good to the greatest number.

Why the Republican Exposed the Tribune

The Daily Tribune which was parading itself as an independent non-partisan paper came out just before the city election very strongly in favor of the Democratic candidates for Mayor, Clerk, Treasurer and Marshal and bitterly opposed the Republican candidates for those offices.

In regard to councilmen, the Tribune gave no advice in the first and second, but they claimed to favor Taylor Morford, the Republican candidate in the third ward, but as his election was a foregone conclusion what the Tribune did was o£ very little consequence. To show that the influence exerted by it amounted to absolutely nothing compare the majorities of Duncan for Mayor and Morford for Councilman in the third ward. The Tribune was opposed to Duncan and red hot for Herron for Mayor, yet Duncan's majority in the third ward was 105, and Morford, whom the Tribune favored received jnst 105 majority in the same ward. Its opposition took no votes from Duncan and its advocacy added no votes to Morfora's majority. A paper which pretends to be non partisan need not think it can gain subscribers by such pretenses and then carry said subscribers along with it into the Democratic or Republican camps. People prefer honesty in a paper as well as an individual, It was simply to expose its Democratic proclivities that the REPUBLICAN had a few woids to offer on the subject. Now we are done, as we believe very one knows the true politics of the paper.

To Arrange For G. A. R. Memorial Services.

It is earnestly requested that all citizens who are interested in memorial services will meet with the Woman's Relief Corps and G. A. R. for conference at the Court House, Monday evening at 7 p. m. All are invited.

COMMITTEE OF ARRANGEMENTS.
