HAS any one heard Bynum quote the price of wheat for next year?

THE last campaign Bynum's promises were worth oaly 40 cents on the dollar.

IN Muncie the glass factories cut wages according to the scale 22%, per cent and other factories there are scaling thewages Uwwu i5 per cent.

FIGURING by the Republican increase and the Democrat decrease in votes in Vrnnont and Maine, Hancock county will go Republican by a handsome majority- ________

The sugar trust is fortunate to have so good a friend as Secretary Carlisle at the head of the Treasury just now. An unfriendly Secretary of the Treasury could so construe the confectioners clause of the tariff as to cut into the profits of the trust to the extent of about one cent a pound. Mr. Carlisle's friendships for the trust has been proven, however.

THE great drouth which has prevailed in this country for several months, was broken by a general rain last Saturday ana Sunday from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Here in Hancock county we had a fine rain Sunday night, and last night we had a splendid rain. From the look of the clouds the good work will no doubt con: rue.

TT15 Republicans carried Vermont last week by 28,356, with her State Senate unanimously Republican and the House almost so. Monday of this week Maine spoke in thunderous tones with a majority of 38,000. In 1866 Gen. Chamber1: :u had 27,000 majority, and never since that time has it been equal to 20,000 and once the Democrats elected the Governor, so the above shows what a tremendous Republican year this is.

KOERNER Lodge No. 6, Knights of Pythias, at Indianapolis, composed of Germans, seceded from the order at their meeting Monday night. The lodge secedub because the Supreme Grand Lodge has decided that only English rituals are to be used. There are over 500,000 Pythians, and only 13,000 in German lodges in the number. The order is sorry to see the Germans go, but the Supreme officor3 say this is America and the American style shall prevail.

'.V. CONCERNING the last Congress Sena­

's

tor Peffer says: "I consider the Fifty-third Congress the most stupendous failure in the history of the Nation. Not a single act of J.' public benefit WMS passed." "What is your opinion of the new tariff bill?" "I don't like to talk about it. The proceedings were so scauaalous that I don't enjoy talking about it. I speak of 'f the gener.-il discussion and the complete surrender of the Democrats to a handful of p. men. How humiliating to see a large bodv ef men lay down their arms before a halt dozen." .J' That is the opiuion of all persons who aw candid enough to acknowledge facts, *, and honest enough to express them.

THE latest figures show that the Republican majority in Maine has crawled up to 38,000. Each of the four Republican Congressmen is elected by nearly 9,000 majority. The State Senate, 31 members, is solidly Republican, and the House will have 142 Republicans and 9 Democrats. The last time the Democrats Lad 44 members. This year the Republican vote increased largely, while the Democrat vote decreased. The same per age of increase in the Republican and decrease in the Democrat vote in Hancock county will carry Hancock •comity for the Republicans by a handisowe majority. We see no reason why v:W0 can not do as well as they did in Maine r-saad there are many reasons why we should do even better. Hancock county can and -•-•will be carried by the Republicans this je*r.

Pithy, Pointed and Fertluent.

No man is fonder of fair play than an Englishman—when fair piay assist his

The average Democrat is still in doubt whether to praise or to damn the new tariff.

Spain has retaliated and Germany is preparing to retaliate upon the Uuited States. All on account of Democratic legislation.

An astrologer explains it alL Grover Cleveland's '•significator" is the moon. Some of his recent acts have certainly been quite mooney.

There ought to be a warning for those politicians whose weakness is "playing to the grand stand'' in the large number of grand stands that have been destroyed by fire this year.

When great floods devastate a section we deem water the most dangerous element, but the great forest fires now seem to have been much worse than any flood could have been.

If anybody expects Secretary Carlisle to make a tarifi ruling that will enable foreign sugar refiners to cut into the profits of the sugar trust they had better prepare to be disappointed.

Here's Charles A. Dana's latest tribute to Mr. Cleveland: "It is not our fault that he has proven himself unworthy of confidence either as a statesman or a man of integrity and honor."

Tammany is having a great fight. The waves of popular indignation have grown so high that attempts are being made to lighten the Tammany ship by throwing overboard members of the crew.

Congressman Bryan, of Nebr., began his editorical career with some very pretty promises and an attempt to name his successor in the House. From which it may be inferred that Mr. Bryan is opposed to any bossing that is not done by Mr. Bryan.

To those who believe in voting money out of their own pockets we have noth ing to say, but to those who wish to see the country return to an era of prosperity and good wages we beg to say that it can be accomplished in only one way— vote the Republican party back into power.

If Mr. Cleveland will pay the price he can get the support of Senator Hill, in his fight with Senator Gorman which will be renewed next winter. But the pric* high. Nothing "-.ore nor less than the making of Hill the administration candidate for the Democratic nomination in '96.

Senator Hill winks the other eye and quietly shakes hands with himself every time he reads about his accepting the nomination for governor this year. He finds a seat in the Senate very satisfao tory for the present, and, like most other men, thinks the next governor of New York will be a Republican.

The sugar trust comes high. It cost the business of the U. S. the profitable market of Cuba and Porto Rico, lost through abrogation of reciprocity agreements it will cost the sugar consumers the two cents a pound more they will have to pay for sugar*, and it is going to cost the Democratic party the control of Congress.

Farming as an Occupation.

From ihe Philadelphia Inquirer.

One phase of farming must be brought to ones attention during hard times such as these, when so many thousands are out of work. It is that there are no such things as strikes on the farm, and the lack of work because times are hard. There is always steady work on the farm, and the farmer never has to worry about being thrown out of a job. Here is a carpenter who is busy on a paying job this month, but when that is finished he must be in a state of anxiety to know where he can find anything else to do. The same is true of a painter, and of all kinds of mechanics. To a steady workman, and one who has a family to support. this uncertainty of his future in come must bring a great deal of worry and anxiety. Generally, when we compare a carpenter's income with that of a farmer's we multiply the number of working days in a year by two or three, according to the number of dollars a day the mechanic receives, and take no account of the days of enforced idleness when there is no work ahead. This is consequently an unfair comparison.

The farmer never needs worry about work to do. There is steady employment for him on the farm the year round, both for

Lands

and brain, if he will but

see it, and there are endless little recourses for making a little more money even during the hardest times. Certainly his lot is by far the better during periods of financial depression. He must suffer the same as all other laboring and business men. There will be less money to buy his goods, and a smaller margin of profits. But the soil and weather are not depressed by any money panic or business depression, and.they will olten combine in such times to produce larger crops than at other seasons. If the margin of profits is smaller then the increased yield can partly compensate the loss Greater activity in cultivation and study of crops in such years can certainly be made to yield better returns if the weather and soil do not conspire to prevent.

If we could impress upon the boys of the farm the real truth about farming and talk less about farming not paying, we would have a less nnmber leaving us to become carpenters, painters and general workmen. Besides this, on the farm they ate independent business men, their own masters, and everything depends upon the amount of ability they display, but as a mechanic or laboring man they are simply the tools of others, to give so much labor a day for his wages. He does not direct his own. labor,' or profit much by any extra display of business talent. He is always subject to the call of another, and never his own master to do as he pleases.. By all odds the nobler life, and the more enjoyable one, i. oil the farm, where the air and sunshine breathes into one's life a new independence and manhood. If more of the foreigners who come over here would tuke to farming we would have leas number of labor troubles and strikes, and a better class of citizens.

Almost a Clean Sweep.

RUTLAND, Vt., Sept. 10—Returns from all towns in the State received by the town clerk here show the Republican majority to be 27,310 and the plurality 28,356. Official return will change these figures very little. Following is the analysis: Republican vote, 1894, 42,736 1890, 33 462. Democratic vote, 1894, 14,380 1890, 19,313. Republican gain, 9,374 Democratic loss, 4,963. The Senate is a Republican unit and the House stands as follows: Republicans, 233 Democrats' 9 Populist, 1. Three towns made no choice.

STANLEY'S SU,T.

NOVKL COMPLAINT OF A FALL.CllEEK TOWNSHIP FARMER.

Be Will Sue Congressman Bynum For False Pretenses.—Be Sowed Wheat On the Assurance ot the Grass

Burner That the Price. Would Go Up.

William Stanley, a farmer residing in Fallcreek township, near Pendleton, has until recently been a life-long Democrat.

He has voted with the mossbanks all his life, but recently turned Populist. Farmer Stanley is now after the scalp of Congressman Bynum and is preparing to bring suit against him for false pretense.

His complaint is probably one ef the most striking and novel that ever came before a court. Stanley alleges that Bynum caused him to lose $1,500 by false pretenses in a political speech. Stanley says: "You see, it is this way," said Mr. Stanley yesterday. "Bynum came up to Pendleton and made a speech and told us what we want is more money in this country. Then he said that when the Democrats are elected wheat will be worth $1.25 a bushel. Well. I went and sowed a lot of wheat according to his promise that I'd get $1.25 a bushel for it. "I raised 2,000 bushels in two years, but instead of getting $1.25 for it I sold some of it for fifty cents and the rest for forty-five cents a bushel. I might have sowed something else and made more, but I took that man's promises and sowed whc&ti "Well I didn't make as much by $1,500 as he said I would. He led me into it and I am going to sue him for false pretense. My lawyer* sa I've got a clear case."

Mr. Stanley is one of the successful farmers of Madison county and is one of the many hundreds who never let the sun go down on their wrath without adding a new and more withering curse against the Democratic party in general and grass burner Bynum in particular. His presence in the city, says an Indianapolis dispatch, was solely for the purpose of getting advice on the subject of his proposed suit. He was found at the office of the Nonconformist, the leading Populist paper of the United States, and said he had the whole matter settled. "I shall sue Mr. Bynum for false pretenses," he declared, "and I can bring 300 witnesses from my township who lost money by following his advice.

If the truth was only known there is not a farmer in Madison county who does not believe that the Democratic party is responsible for the low price of wheat. In the manufacturing towns of Anderson, Alexandria and Elwood Bynum made the same misleading statements that he did down in our neck of woods around Pendleton."

We farmers all looked on Bynum as a man who knew what he was talking about when he told us that wheat would go up to $1.25 a bushel should the Democrats carry the election. I don't reckon there was a man of us who doubted his word. To the glass workers, iron workers and the other thousands of workingmen in the towns I have just named, he said wages would go up and the men have work the year round. If anything they are worse off than the farmers." When the Wilson bill was before Congress we sent petitions to Bynum with enough names signed to reach across a ten acre field, asking him to vote against cutting the duty on glass and iron and wool. The only answer we ever got was that he was controlled by the platform of his party. The mills shut down last summer and thousands of men have been out of work a year. The gas belt has been dead ever since Bynum was elected, wool went down till it wasn't worth the shearing and we are feeding our wheat to the hogs, being cheaper than corn." "But you do not expect to get a verdict against Mr. Bynum on such a suit?" was suggested. "I don't know so well about that." replied the farmer quickly. "If I was on the jury I think I'd sock it to him good and hard anyhow. I have made up my mind to take the law to him. If he don't do anything else it will give me something to talk about all fall and will make Populists out of Democrats fast as corn poppin' in a skilllet, and that's all I'm after. I'm after Bynum's scalp, my neighbors are after his scalp and I'll bet a Jersey calf we get it. "—Anderson Herald. Some Observations By Prot. J. W. Jay.—

The Abuse of Machinery.—Green lteld's Good People-

On our way to Greenfield the other day, we discovered about $90 lying in a farmer's fence corner, and going a short distance farther we found $53. The money in both cases was somewhat damaged by exposure to the weather. One strange thing about it, the farmers in both instances knew the money was there, but were liberal and did not especially care for it just then, 'the first money was in tha shape of a "Binder" and the second a wagon

If ye correspondent had the money that is wasted in Hancock county each year in exposing farm implements to the storms of summer and winter, we need not teach any more. Is not this one of the causes of hard times? I know a farmer who has successfully run the same binder for twelve years. It is good yet. A neighboring farmer bought his third binder this season. The first carefully sheltered his machine, the other was indiffer ent to this fact. Which think you will be successful?

We feel highly pleased with the success of the Institute and the courtesy of the Greenfield people. Greenfield is one of the cleanest little cities, everything considered, we have ever been in. We find the people cultured, yet not stiff. The city is a center of education, refinement and morality. Eyen the most wealthy are open hearted, generous and kind. The moral and christian people seem to be in a great majority, and even those who are rough and careless, do not denounce the cause of right, as is so frequently done by this class elsewhere. We have the highest esteem lor the people of Greenfield and certainly believe that the citizens of that bright little city would be united in one common tie of brotherhood, if they realized the advantages of their city, compared with others.

.The Gftpen Murder Trial.

The case of the State vs. Robt. Gapen charged with killing Luther Ellsbury, is now being tried with Judge L. P. Newby, of Knightstown, on the bench. Marsh & Cook are assisting Prosecutor Felt, and Offutt & Black are for the defense.

The city schools which were postponed a week will open next Monday. The schools will have city water to use which has been examined by the Board of Healtn and found to be absolutely free and pure from all organic matter.

The Glass factories are now in full operation. S. R. Wells began last Saturpay and the Columbia yesterday.

Wages at The Glass Works,

The Democrat's gentlemanly charge last week that the REPUBLICAN'S claim that wages would be reduced $25000 at the glass works "was a lie out of whole cloth," as they would only be reduced $3000, is easily answered. Last year $116000 was paid out in wages. The reduction is 22% ner cent., which amounts to $26100.

O. A. B. ATTENTION!

Password and Countersign for the Pittsburgh Encampment.

j,

Comrades, the password to the G. A. R. National Encampment is "Pennsylvania Lines," and the countersign is "Look at the Map." Get it right and you will have no trouble, no inconvenience in your journey. There is only one railway over which regular trains and through cars run from your locality direct to Pittsburg and back again there is only one shortest and best route there is only one system of railways extending from all parts of Western Pennsylvania Ohio and Indiana to Pittsburg. Any reliable railway map will prove that these advantages are possessed only by the Pennsylvania Lines. This is the only thoroughfare from your station to Pittsburgh under one management. It will be great fun going to the Encampment in special cars and special trains with bands and flying colors. But how about getting back when the great crowd breaks up and makes the rush for home. Think about it. It's likely you'll feel tired at the close of Encampment week and not care to spend any mora hoars on the road or change cars oftener than is necessary on the return journey. Take the Pennsylvania Lines. W. H. SCOTT,
